With today's compilers, switches and ifs can perform about the same. You will often find that a compiler will convert a switch statement to a series of ifs and maybe even visa-versa.

While there may be a valid use for goto, I've not used it in years. You can always organize your code so that it isn't necessary, and the modified code is almost invariably more robust.
I am curious. Why were you taught to not use switch? While it can be misused, overall it has its applications. Any time you have a discrete value (an enum, for example) that specifies an action, a switch statement is appropriate.
The object-oriented programming crowd would argue that you should create a class structure, and derive unique classes for each case. That approach is inefficient and overkill a lot of the time. It also makes it a lot more difficult to follow program logic.

I get a fatal error from an article posted on here.
http://www.codeproject.com/w2k/makexp.asp
Here's the exact error:

I've also tried include fstream without the .h and get different errors. Any ideas? Thanks. I'm wanting to learn C++ and I have Visual Studio .NET 2003 Professional. NOt sure if the version matters, but thought I would post it in case.

Try
<br />
#include <fstream><br />
using namespace std;<br />
It should work without the using statment, but then you'll need to preface with std::...
std::ofstream out("blah.txt");

<fstream.h> is not part of the C++ standard, and should not be used in any new code.
It's not portable to modern compilers like VC++ 7.x
Should use <fstream> which is part of the C++ standard, and then use using namespace std, or prefix your types with std::

Hi all!
I'm searching a way to use the sql limit statement in my recordset (derived from CRecordset). Someone knows a way to do so?

Hi All
After running the program when I saw memory usage of this program in "Task Manager" then noticed that memory usage by program is continually increasing,
Though I am not doing any activity on the program.
Why is this taking place ?
Please reply
Thanks

Hello,
You probably got a memory leak somewhere in a function that gets called frequently!
You can use Visual Leak Detector[^] tp track any of these leaks down in a debug build. Run the program in the debugger and on exit, it will report all leaks in your program.
Is your program multithreaded by the way?

Hi
I am hooking into createfile API to differentiate between File open and File create . I am not ablt to differnetiate between the two operations.
In win2000 , CREATE_NEW is not at called and it is always giving OPEN_EXISTING .Further if i create a notepad file i am getting CREATE_ALWAYS . But if i create a .xls file i am getting OPEN_EXISTING
In win2003 , I am able to differentiate between Creation and open.

I don't know if here is the right place for this question.
I'm creating a setup project in Visual Studio .Net and i want to register a file type (say .jk) with a custom icon. In VS enviroment the only way to do this (i think) is to associate the file type with an executable. But this is not my case. I want the file .jk just to have my icon and nothing more. As you know there are files in Windows that display custom icons but are not associated with executables, so when you double click them you get a shell "Open With" dialog.
Any ideas how to deal with this?

I do not know how as I have never done that. But I would think it would be a registry entry that holds the data for that. So what I would do is find a file exetension that does what you want, then do a registry search for that extension. You should then be able to figure out what is entered in the registry and copy that for your own extension.
It might take a bit of detective work and some trial and error.
Good luck

Hi,
I have a problem working with Html Help Workshop.
I paste pictures from Rational into Word and after I save the document as .htm and use it in Html Help Workshop the picture is not shown.
I don't know if this a bug.
Can you help me please?
|
|
|
|
|
Try looking at the HTML. There should be an <img src="file"> tag where the picture would be. Make sure the file exists, and contains the picture. You will need to add file to your help project as well.

Hey guys, I`ve got a problem with Borland C++ Builder.
I have a code that I need but it`s written on BCB. And I need to do this code on VC++.
Almost all that code is easy, but I can`t find in VC++ function like
Graphics::TBitmap in BCB
Does anyone knows how can I change that function to work in VC?
Will be glad to any answer.

How to add a Shortcut key at runtime into application's Accelerator table.
|
|
|
|
|
You may try getting the current accelerator handle (e.g., m_hAccelTable in a CFrameWnd) and:
1 - Use CopyAcceleratorTable to obtain the current table into an array of ACCEL structures.
2 - Add more ACCEL structures to the array.
3 - Create a new table from the array using CreateAcceleratorTable
4 - Changing the current accelerator to the new one.
5 - Destroy the old accelerator using DestroyAcceleratorTable
It's just a suggestion. Never tried it.
An alternative would be to create a separate table in a derived window and use it in your override for PreTranslateMessage:
BOOL CYourWindow::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if (m_hAccel != NULL && TranslateAccelerator(m_hWnd, m_hAccel, pMsg))
return TRUE;
return CYourWindowBase::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}
The above could be done in a class derived from CWinApp too.
Hope that helps,

Hello,
How can I get unicode build?
I got these two errors after my trying.
C:\haranadh\abc.cpp(185) : error C2664: 'lstrcpyW' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'char [32]' to 'unsigned short *'
Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast
C:\haranadh\abc.cpp(187) : error C2665: 'AfxMessageBox' : none of the 2 overloads can convert parameter 1 from type 'char [32]'
Error executing cl.exe.
abc.exe - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)
My code is as follows-
----------------------
struct ABCAAA
{
UINT cbSize;
DWORD dwMask;
DWORD dwEffects;
LONG yHeight;
LONG yOffset;
COLORREF crTextColor;
BYTE bCharSet;
BYTE bPitchAndFamily;
char szFaceName[32];
};
void CAbcDlg::OnMyButton()
{
ABCAAA cf;
lstrcpy(cf.szFaceName,_T("Wingdings 3"));
AfxMessageBox(cf.szFaceName);
}
-----
Here I changed some settings of vc++ to build my project in Unicode build.
1)I added in Project Settings->Link->Object/Librirary Modules-> version.lib Winmm.lib
2)Project Settings->C/C++->Preprocessor Definitions->WIN32,NDEBUG,_WINDOWS,_AFXDLL,_MBCS,UNICODE
-----
but I got errors. Previously before changes It works fine.
How can I get unicode build?
Tox, Alok or Anyone Please Help me.

The error message is telling you exactly what's wrong. lstrcpyW() (the Unicode version of lstrcpy()) expects a unsigned short* (more commonly expressed as wchar_t* or LPWSTR) as the first parameter, but you're passing a char array. You probably want szFaceName to be a TCHAR array.

Actually This is I am using as testing program.
But the structure in my actual program is predefined.
that is
typedef struct _charformat
{
UINT cbSize;
DWORD dwMask;
DWORD dwEffects;
LONG yHeight;
LONG yOffset;
COLORREF crTextColor;
BYTE bCharSet;
BYTE bPitchAndFamily;
char szFaceName[LF_FACESIZE];
} CHARFORMATA;
I am using an instance for that typedef.
Thanks for reply.
