Re: Detect changes made to dialog input fields

There are events for checking and for text changing. There's no single, overarching method you can call on a dialog tho.

Using common dialog box: Print

I'm trying to use the Print dialog box in my program. MSDN provides wonderful instruction on how to create the dialog box and display it with certain options, etc., etc., but I can't seem to find from MSDN the code to actually get the ink from the printer to the paper and what to be putting on the paper. I display the dialog, the user can make all kinds of nice selections, but how do I tell it what to print, and how do I make the printer move?

Hi,
you should use a DC(attach it to your print dialog printer DC), Start a document->start a page-> do whatever you want with the DC(whatever you do will be printed!)->end your page->end your document
look below:

CPrintDialog PDlg(FALSE);<br />
CDC PDC;<br />
<br />
/* You don't need this part, since you used the customized dialog<br />
if(!PDlg.GetDefaults())<br />
{<br />
  AfxMessageBox("Error");<br />
  return;<br />
}<br />
*/<br />
<br />
PDC.Attach(PDlg.GetPrinterDC());<br />
<br />
PDC.StartDoc("New Name, will apear in systray");<br />
PDC.StartPage();<br />
	<br />
PDC.TextOut(0,0,"HELLO!");<br />
	<br />
PDC.EndPage();<br />
PDC.EndDoc();

How to get instance handle of an ActiveX control

I am using VC6 w/ MFC and have an app with the COleDocument/CView architecture. A COleClientItem is added (and activated) successfully to the document but now I would like to get at some of the resource items in that control, namely the icons. I figured I would use the ::LoadIcon and use the instance handle of the control but I don't know how to get it. The GetIconFromRegistry() is not useful Frown | :(

as the control does not register its icon that way. (I wrote the OCX control and if someone knows how to register the icon, that would be fine as well.)

If I go the ::LoadIcon() route, how do I get the instance handle of the control?

Thanks!

How to take advantage of .NET in MFC application

Hi all,

I have been programming all my projects using C++ and MFC for the last 8 years. Now I think it's time for me to learn new things by using .NET when creating new features ( new dialogs, new code) on top of old projects.

Is it possbile for MFC DLL or MFC EXE to call a DLL that was created using .NET languages?

If the answer is yes, what is the best way to share ( pass) data structures between MFC EXE and .NET DLL?

Recommend any good book?

Thanks

VC++ 7.1 and VC++ 2005 both support the /clr mode, where your entire native code (MFC, ATL whatever) gets compiled into IL (exceptions to this rule exist). Now you can use .NET classes from your (previously)native apps just as if you were using native classes.

Hello I have some problem about Platform SDK using, I need help, but please read carefuly to know the problem and the situation first, Thanks!!!

Problem:
========
Windows Data Types: for examples:
ULONG_PTR
PDWORD_PTR
are undeclared identifier in MFC/VC++/Platform SDK!!!

Installation' situation:
========================
I have intalled the Platform SDK on my computer. The SDK install file was downloaded from MicoSoft website ( Windows® Server 2003 SP1 Platform SDK Web Install ).

The setup file name is:
PSDK-x86.exe.

The address is :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=A55B6B43-E24F-4EA3- A93E-40C0EC4F68E5&displaylang=en

Platform SDK files situation:
=============================
After installed, on my computer, under the folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Include, I got the file BaseTsd.h, but in the file, there are no these Data types declarations!!!

Ms Platform SDK documentation Say:
==================================
All these Windows Data Types are declared in BaseTsd.h

So, some body can fig out the problem? Thanks

So what do you have in the BaseTsd.h file? What size is the file? Is this SDK for Visual Studio 6 or .Net?

Windows® Server 2003 SP1 Platform SDK Web Install Description:
==============================================================

[Overview]

The Microsoft® Windows® Software Development Kit (SDK) provides the documentation, samples, header files, libraries, and tools you need to develop applications that run on Windows. The applications you develop with this edition of the SDK can run on the x86, x64 and Itanium-based versions of Windows Server 2003 SP1, Windows XP SP2, Windows XP x64 Pro Edition, and Windows 2000. A new custom install allows you to select components you wish to install on a more granular level.

[System Requirements]

Supported Operating Systems: Windows 2000; Windows Server 2003; Windows XP 64-bit; Windows XP Professional Edition ; Windows XP Service Pack 1

Development Tools. To build the C/C++ samples, you must have a C/C++ compiler. If you are using Microsoft Visual C/C++®, run it at least once before installing the SDK. This will ensure that the environment variables are correctly configured. To build the Visual Basic samples, you must have Microsoft Visual Basic®. This SDK does not support working with Microsoft Visual C/C++®, 6.0 as support for VC 6.0 has ended. The last SDK that will work with VC 6.0 is the February 2003 Edition, you can order a CD on the fulfillment site. Side by side installations are not supported.

Which could be anywhere from 8,704 to 9,727 bytes.

In any case, you need to examine the file more closely. Both ULONG_PTR and PDWORD_PTR are defined in the file. Look around lines 104, 114, 123, and 412.

Look at the various preprocessor directives (e.g., #if, #ifdef) in that file. Those must evaluate to true in order for the typedef statements to get compiled.

hi, all

I got debug assertion failure when the app hits \MFC\SRC\WINCORE.CPP, at function "void CWnd::AssertValid() const", line "ASSERT((CWnd*)p == this);"
#ifdef _DEBUG
void CWnd::AssertValid() const
{
if (m_hWnd == NULL)
return; // null (unattached) windows are valid

// check for special wnd??? values
ASSERT(HWND_TOP == NULL); // same as desktop
if (m_hWnd == HWND_BOTTOM)
ASSERT(this == &CWnd::wndBottom);
else if (m_hWnd == HWND_TOPMOST)
ASSERT(this == &CWnd::wndTopMost);
else if (m_hWnd == HWND_NOTOPMOST)
ASSERT(this == &CWnd::wndNoTopMost);
else
{
// should be a normal window
ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd));

// should also be in the permanent or temporary handle map
CHandleMap* pMap = afxMapHWND();
ASSERT(pMap != NULL);

CObject* p;
ASSERT((p = pMap->LookupPermanent(m_hWnd)) != NULL ||
(p = pMap->LookupTemporary(m_hWnd)) != NULL);
ASSERT((CWnd*)p == this);
the failure message comes up when p was point to "cWndhWnd" and this is "CUsoDlg".......since it's a multithread application, could this failed message just be ignored? it's debug assertion anyway.

thanks!

Are you serious? When an assertion fires, it is indicating to you that something was encountered that was not expected and needs to be fixed. Just because you do not see it in Release mode does not mean that the problem does not exist.

At the point of the assertion, what does the stack trace look like?

Thanks for your replay, David

I have checked the app again, seems like most of the time, both p and this will point to "CUsocDlg", which is correct. Somepoint, P will points to "CWndhWnd", I am not sure where is this from....

CObject* p;
ASSERT((p = pMap->LookupPermanent(m_hWnd)) != NULL ||
(p = pMap->LookupTemporary(m_hWnd)) != NULL);
ASSERT((CWnd*)p == this);

the stack trace looks like it's at the end of the void CUsocDlg::Process() (it points to last '}')......it also at UINT ThreadFalling(LPVOID pParam) function, line "return 0"

When you double-click on an item in the Call Stack window, you are taken to the line immediately preceeding that line. It will be marked with a yellow arrow in the left margin. In your case, if that arrow is pointing to the closing curly brace, the statement right above that is the active one. Go back through the functions called, the ones for which you have the source, and note the state and value of the variables. You should be able to tell if a variable does not look right before a function is called with bogus data.

Regarding Back ground color.

Hello Friends,

I have 3 edit boxes in which I enter the values of RGB respectively. Whenever there is a change of value in the edit boxes, I display the appropraite color based on the inputted values in a picture control.

My main problem lies, if I resize the window, then the color displayed in the picture control is gone, so for displaying it again, i have to change the value of edit box.

So, please help me regarding this one so that even if i resize the window, the colour is shown to the user.

Even I had included OnPaint() function and calling the color display, then it is flickering.

Please help me. Frown | :(

Thanks in Advance.

It sounds like you are just redrawing the control in a new color and not setting it to the new color. In orther words, you should be calling a function that changes the drawing color of the control so that when it is being repainted it uses the new color.

You should not need to define your own OnPaint() function to accomplish this.

The flickering is noramaly caused by the OnEraseBkgnd().

Hey,

can you please help me. I've created a CustomControl which draws a special table. No I want to implent a scroll-function. So I added the style WS_HSCROLL and handled the message. I'd use the ScrollWindow function. Now the table scrolls, but the "new area" is not filled correctly. There is the last column (before scrolled) smeared. Do I have to code a special OnDraw-function. I thought it is enough when I paint outside the client area and then scroll....

{745A17A0-74D3-11D0-B6FE-00A0C90F57DA}
{483K23F8-74D3-11D0-B6FE-00A0C90F57DA}

and i want to know if this two usb devices are registered adn for this i use another text file in the server part whith all the usb registered that i want, for example:

{745A17A0-74D3-11D0-B6FE-00A0C90F57DA}

So if one usb is in the database i want to show a message that is registered. And i have this code but doesnt work, because dont show me the message:

void CIOCPClientDlg::compareFiles(){

char data[40];
std::ifstream fileusb ("GUIDs_found.txt");
char data2[40];
std::ifstream database ("C:\Documents and Settings\Densitet\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\IOCP-SRC\IOCP-SRC\IOCP\Debug\USBDevices.txt");
bool salida =false;
while (!fileusb.eof() )
{
fileusb.getline(data,40);

while (!database.eof()&&(!salida==false))
{
database.getline(data2,40);

if (data==data2){
AfxMessageBox("USB registered");
}

salida=false;
}

}
}

If somebody can help me with this proble.
Than you for the possible help

Replace:
if (data==data2){
by that:
if (strcmp(data,data2) == 0){

What you are doing is comparing the two pointers which are of course different (the pointer data points to another location than the pointer data2).

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
