How to access the I/O port under Windows2000

I know that in Windows95, we use the function _outp and _inp to access the I/O port. But they can't be used in Windows2000. What can I do? Should I have to use some software to develop a driver? Confused | :confused:

You must develop a kernel mode driver or may be using the already exist driver such as WinIO.

You can use CreateFile & WriteFile [^]
to access to serial port.

Trouble getting device context

theFrenchHornet31-Jul-05 7:41

I don't know how to correctly acquire the device context for a control. If I put similar code in the OnCtlColor routine where a pointer to the device context is provided, the code works. However, when I try setting the device context, the code doesn't work. Two samples are provided - the first is the code that doesn't work. I appreciate any help fixing it. Thank-you.

This code compiles and runs without error, but does not achieve the color change. (c_navValid is a text box control)

LOGFONT lf;
CDC* dc = new CDC;
dc->Attach(c_navValid.GetDC()->m_hDC);
         
GetFont()->GetObject(sizeof(lf), &lf);
font.CreateFontIndirect(&lf);

dc->SelectObject(&font);
dc->SetTextColor(RGB(0,100,0));
font.DeleteObject();

This code works.

HBRUSH CNavDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)
{
 W_Position_Data_Type* pPositionMsg;
 pPositionMsg = (W_Position_Data_Type*)&CInMsgs::wPositionMsg;
	
 HBRUSH hbr = CPropertyPage::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);

 if (pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID() == IDC_NAV_VALID)
 {
   if (pPositionMsg->Mode_Word.Nav_Valid)
   {
     LOGFONT lf;
     GetFont()->GetObject(sizeof(lf), &lf);
     font.CreateFontIndirect(&lf);
     pDC->SelectObject(&font);
     pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(0,100,0));
     font.DeleteObject();
   }
 }

Use CClientDC or CWindowDC to get a DC for a window. Use the former to draw in the window's client area only, or the latter if you need to draw in the non-client area too.

Could you please show me the code? To use CClientDC I need a pointer to a window. How do I convert the static control to a window pointer? cCliendDc dc(c_navValid); I know isn't correct. What parameter do I pass to CClientDC to get a dc for the control? Thanks.

You can set the height/width of the edit control using any of the following
mehtods.

BOOL MoveWindow(HWND hWnd,
int X,
int Y,
int nWidth,
int nHeight,
BOOL bRepaint
);

HWND CreateWindow(LPCTSTR lpClassName,
LPCTSTR lpWindowName,
DWORD dwStyle,
int x,
int y,
int nWidth,
int nHeight,
HWND hWndParent,
HMENU hMenu,
HINSTANCE hInstance,
LPVOID lpParam
);

I use function shellexecute (0, "open", "filename", "", "path", SW_SHOW) to execute a program and it runs ok. But I want to get the HWND (handle) of this executed file so that i can hide, minimze, or close it. Please help me how to code (in win32 api) to get the HWND. Thanks.

Hi,

You can get HWND for the application you are opening through "ShellExecute"
using following technique

Psedo code:

ShellExecute(GetDesktopWindow(), "open", "filename", "", "path", SW_SHOW)
EnumChildWindows(GetDesktopWindow(), CallBackChildWindows, lParam)
CallBackChildWindows(...)
{
int iRet;
//Get the class name of the window
iRet = GetClassName(hwnd,strClassName,..)
if(iRet!=0)
{
//You must be knowing the class name for the application, which you are
//opening through the SheeExecute. So match the class name here, once
//match the class name exit from this proc.
//arrStrClassNames would have all the class names
if(strClassName==arrStrClassNames[iIndex])
return false
else
return true
}
}

Still facing problems ? Cool | :cool:

Vishal

Linked list, passing a pointer

bitsNbites30-Jul-05 15:49

30-Jul-05 15:49

I have this C++ course and I have creatd a linked list with methods to insert and remove. The program works fine for me but for my instructor it crashes, for him, most likely since he uses his version of main. I can't trobleshoot my version, that easy, since it works. What I suspect is that my remove method wants an actual parameter of a pointer that points to a real address,(not null) and perhaps my instructors main is only sending a pointer. Is it possible to send a pointer, (of a user defined data type UDT) to a method and have that method set what this calling parameter will point to? I hope this makes sense. I have been spending many hours trying to learn all the ins and outs of pointers.
Thanks

If only I had more time!

Have you tried passing bad values to your methods. Like trying to remove the same element more than one time? If you remove all emements in your main does it crash?
