Re: Dynamic popup menu mark novak27-Jul-05 1:54 mark novak 27-Jul-05 1:54  Usually what I do with a dynamic menu like that is have a begining ID range and an ending ID range, I define this in the resource header like #define ID_DYNAMIC_MENU_BEGIN 3000 #define ID_DYNAMIC_MENU_END (ID_DYNAMIC_MENU_BEGIN + 100) I then call AppendMenu with ID_DYNAMIC_MENU_BEGIN + index; That would get rid of your m_bPhonesMenuCalled flag because you can just check the wParam to see if it's the range. To get an index use wParam - ID_DYNAMIC_MENU_BEGIN. Attach()/Detach() are unwanted since they are for menus that already exist. You do however have a resource leak in that you never destroy the menu. After your TrackPopupMenu() you should call DestroyMenu(), with that in place I see no reason for you to Assert by using a CMenu as a member. You were probably ASSERTing by calling CreatePopupMenu() twice without a DestroyMenu(). You ask good questions.

Mark Petrik Sosa wrote: That would get rid of your m_bPhonesMenuCalled flag because you can just check the wParam i don't agree, it could exist several menus in a bigger application than mine that have ID defined twice... i should better have a menu handle. Mark Petrik Sosa wrote: You were probably ASSERTing by calling CreatePopupMenu() twice without a DestroyMenu(). yes, that's it, but were to place DestroyMenu() so ?

String Converstions tomek1826-Jul-05 2:59 tomek18 26-Jul-05 2:59  here is my code: <br /> void CChildView::SortData(LPCTSTR pszData)<br /> <br /> ofstream testFile ("test.txt", ios::app);<br /> testFile << pszData;<br /> The Problem is that it saves the pointer address, 0x00421DA8 and what I want it to do is save the character that is recieved by pszData. How do I do that? Thanks, Re: String Converstions mark novak26-Jul-05 3:02 mark novak 26-Jul-05 3:02  pszData is a pointer, you must dereference it to use it's contents. testFile << *pszData; Re: String Converstions tomek1826-Jul-05 3:10 tomek18 26-Jul-05 3:10  I have tried using *pszData. But when I use that, it gives me numbers, a being 97, b 98, c 99, and so on... pszData is Unicode, I believe. I don't realy understand the string converstions. Re: String Converstions mark novak26-Jul-05 3:24 mark novak 26-Jul-05 3:24  Looks like you have a Unicode string coming in which is trying to be treated as an Ansi string. Do you have UNICODE defined? Re: String Converstions tomek1826-Jul-05 3:18 tomek18 26-Jul-05 3:18  The Value that it saves from *pszData is the Decimal value of the character that is passed on! According to the ASCII table. Why does it do that? and how can I make it save the character value? Thanks... Re: String Converstions tomek1826-Jul-05 3:43 tomek18 26-Jul-05 3:43  I have: #ifdef _UNICODE That should be enough? or should I add more to it? I don't understand this string converstion business too much, even so I have read lot's of articles on it... Re: String Converstions mark novak26-Jul-05 4:04 mark novak 26-Jul-05 4:04  A project under Visual C++ can be under many configurations. You have console or win32 application, MFC or ATL or both, etc. You control these configurations by defining values. A unicode project is controlled by the macros _UNICODE and UNICODE. The #ifdef _UNICODE is a preprocessor directive. Like an if, but at a preprocessor level which means if it's not true (evaluated at compile time) the code won't be included in the executable. Try adding #define _UNICODE #define UNICODE to the top of your stdafx.h before you include all the headers, or set them in the project settings under preprocessor definitions. Now your project will be unicode aware. For instance a possible problem in your case is passing an argument as a LPCTSTR, which under an ansi project (_UNICODE & UNICODE not defined) is a pointer to an ansi string. In a unicode project it's a unicode string. Re: String Converstions tomek1826-Jul-05 4:17 tomek18 26-Jul-05 4:17  I have added the following lines Mark Petrik Sosa wrote: #define _UNICODE #define UNICODE to the main.cpp file, don't work. and to stdafx.h file and don't work. The result is still the same. What do you think about converting the pszData into another variable such as buffer that is a wide string for example? I have tried it, but I can't get it to work.

My C++ app needs to read an external text file and display it on screen. But, this text file can contain specific commands to change what has to be displayed by my app. For instance, the text file could be : Hello [if foo] Foo [else] Bar [endif] and my app should display (depending of foo) : Hello Foo. The problem is that I don't know where to start. Should I just parse the text file and just check each [] ? Should I write a real interpreter (I have no idea how to do this). Can I reuse something existing ? Any help, suggestions or idea are welcome ! THanks ! Jerome Re: interpreter needed mark novak26-Jul-05 3:01 mark novak 26-Jul-05 3:01  Depends how hardcore you want to get. If it's simple you could get away with just parsing and using a simple hash table for your variables. Either way you'll want to take a look at these http://www.codeproject.com/cpp/crafting_interpreter_p1.asp[^] http://www.codeproject.com/cpp/crafting_interpreter_p2.asp[^] How to add a Bitmap image for background of titlebar Member 208926526-Jul-05 2:00 Member 2089265 26-Jul-05 2:00  Hi, I'm working on an SDI application using MFC. I'd like to change the background of titlebar and toolbar by adding a small bitmap image which looks like a short vertical line. I found some source codes to change background color of titlebar.

I tried to store the previous windows handle and when mouse was over another window i simply called the Invalidate() function to the previous window. For some strange reasons this worked only for 90% of the windows , but in some cases the retangle still remained over some windows. Can anyone suggest any other way of achieving this??
