A guess as to the cause is that an inlcude file before crtdbg.h has ab incorrect ending or a problem in it such as a non-closed comment. I qould check your stdafx.h file to see what is included before crtdbg.h and check out those files.
On an different note. I used to get a periodic problem like this on one of my projects. I could get it to go away by doing a rebuild all.

Thanks for that Roger. I've checked the #include's and the stdafx, and can't find anything wrong. I have got round it by doing a clean rebuild all - the only problem here is that it takes about 15 mins to build the four projects in the workspace, which means I'm going for fag breaks too often!

the next time it happens try this...
comment out this block of code
#ifdef _DEBUG
#define new DEBUG_NEW
#undef THIS_FILE
static char THIS_FILE[] = __FILE__;
#endif
at the beginning of whatever implementation file that you just changed. Then do a build. Then uncomment it and do it again.
Weird, huh?  Isn't Microsoft grand?

hello,
i made a class with all sorts of functions...
but i actually need to use it as an independant object (compiled) so i can give it to people and that they dont have the source. How can i easily do this?? For example make it a DLL or an Active-X component.. or perhaps something else i haven't heard of yet?? Or is there no easy way out and do i have to rewrite the entire thing so it can be compiled as a DLL??
Any help is appreciated 
P.S.: yes, it probably was rather dumb to write it as a class when i needed it to be a DLL or something, lol...

Make it into a COM object. COM does exactly what you want. Buy "Developers workshop to COM and ATL 3.0", by Andrew Troelson. it's a mighty good book.

You can also make it a static library (.lib) file, and give it away along with the header files. Please note this will only work in VC++. Also, you would need to release several versions depending on the C run-time library linked against: multithreaded/single-threaded, debug/release, static/dynamic. Fortunately, building this bunch of versions is as simple as having different subprojects with the appropriate C run-time settings.

With the MFC class CEdit it is possible to receive notification messages for EN_UPDATE (for when the control is about to display altered text) and EN_CHANGE (for when the control has finished the display of altered text).
Can anyone tell me how I can get notification to my dialog when the user is simply moving the cursor caret around inside the edit control and the text is not changing?
I am using a single line version of the CEdit control.
Your help would be greatly appreciated. If you need further information about what I am doing or in order to answer my question please leave a reply post here and I will answer back.
Thanks
Mike

You'd have to handle a variety of messages. WM_CHAR for characters; i believe this message is sent even if it's only a system key like a cursor key being pressed. Also, you'd want some mouse button messages... WM_LBUTTONDOWN or UP , for example. Because the user can reposition the cursor with a mouse click.

Thanks Jon. Your idea gave me the encouragement to do what needed to be done. I subclassed the CEdit control with a class that has message handlers for all of the appropriate messages that potentially change the caret position in the edit box. These include WM_KEYDOWN, WM_KEYUP, the three left moouse button messages, the three right mouse button messages and the reflected CHANGE message. It turns out that WM_CHAR is not so very useful as this does not get sent except for typed characters that will be modifying the edit box text contents. One sees no response there except for the likes of the arrow keys that actually move the caret around.
Thanks again. Mike

Help... i am trying to write a function for my program but i forgot how to change the font size for the string in the CDC function DrawText(). can anyone tell me how do i do that? i want to make my font bigger so when i use the DrawText function it will be bigger than the default font size.
oh the function parameters are for DrawText is...
int DrawText(Cstring &str, CRect rect, UINT format);
int DrawText(CString &str, int count, CRect rect, UINT format);

This may work:
CFont *pCurrent = pDC->GetCurrentFont() ;
LOGFONT lf ;
pCurrent->GetLogFont(&lf) ;
lf.lfHeight -= -4 ;
CFont local_font ;
local_font.CreateFontIndirect(&lf) ;
pDC->SelectObject(&local_font) ;
DrawText(...) ;
pDC->SelectObject(pCurrent) ;
VEROFY(local_font.DeleteObject()) ;

Hi,
I made a full ActiveX control using ATL ( so it inerhits form IDataObjectImpl as well).
I´m using the control in an MFC application ( well pasted on a Word automated instance...), and I would like to pass to that ActiveX control a Metafile from the Mfc app.
Somebody points me to use that IDataObject, but I don´t see it quite clear, How can I use that, using setdata/getdata ?, Should I have to implement an eventSink, or is there any easier way to do that ?
Thanks, Bye !

In MFC help file, there is a paragrah: "The application’s accelerator table defines F1 for ID_HELP and SHIFT+F1 for ID_CONTEXT_HELP. You can change the keys used for these help functions by using Visual C++ to change the key values in the accelerator table."
I try to define the F1 key for some function in my project (it's interface needs all the keys F1 to F12). I define a new volue for ID_HELP. But when I hit the F1 key, my application activates my function and the Windows help file
Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
I do not want to remove the Windows help F1 key. Just want to change it to another name, say ALT+F1
Thank You Very Much!

A quick search of the MFC code shows that in the AFX function IsHelpKey, the system checks directly for F1. This function is only called in the default threadcore code (i think - not absolutely sure) when processing messages. My suggestion to get this to work for you would be to override the PreTranslateMessage function for the windows you need to use the F1 key for. Trap the F1 key yourself and then act on it directly to call the right code at that point yourself. To continue to get he help code to work for a different key, define an accellerator for e.g. Ctrl-H to map to ID_HELP command.
Some code written from memory that may help.
BOOL CMyWindow::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if (pMSG->message == WM_KEYDOWN && pMsg->wParam == VK_F1)
{
return TRUE ;
}
return CBaseWindow::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg) ;
}

This is no solution to your problem as Roger has already given one. What I'd like to do is recommend that you do not redefine the keys that have "standard" functionality in Win32 programs (e.g. F1, Alt-F4, F10). This will only confuse your user and make them think your program is complicated to use.
Cheers

My guess is that, altough the window itself will accept dropped files, you won't be able to drag the files to the associated tray icon. But, why don't you just give it a try? Simply drag some file to the icon and check if your app receives the WM_DROPFILES message.

Hi,
I have a table in oracle which hhas picture stored in it.I had used D2K forms to insert picture into the table. Now i want to display this picture from the database to my picture control in vc++ at runtime. How do we load a picture to the picture controlin the form at runtime.
Please help..
|
|
|
|

I'm not sure about it,cause I don't know about oracle.
You can first read file and put the string into your database,then if u want to reuse it ,read the string from database and put the string into a file with .jpg or .bmp extention.
Hope it helps

Hey
First: I know how crate custom brush (logical or bitmap) but i don't know how make it transparent - please help me with it.
Second: I don't know how create a custom pen - from bitmap or logical - so if you know how to do it please tell me.
Thx for any answer.

umm... to make the brush transparent i think you use CDC function SetBkMode and in the parameter put TRANSPARENT. (eg. SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT)). to create a pen you use CPen then instantiate it. like CPen mBluePen. then after that use mBluePen.CreatePen()... try check the stuff to put inside coz i kinda forgot. just try it out. i think thats right.
