What does the OnInitDialog() method look like?

It was just the default OnInitDialog(). I moved the ShowWindow(SW_SHOW) function into the OnInitDialog() and the static text of the dialog box is now displayed, but the read only edit controls were not. I added the UpdateData() function to no avail but then realized to add the UpdateWindow() function and now it's working the way I want. Sorry, but I'm not a Windows programmer so everthing seems to be a little backwards, including were to put my code to execute the logic my brain is thinking of. Too many years of structured procedural programming. Thanks a lot that saved me an entire days worth of time.

Much appreciation,

for your modeless dialog, did you put the dialog variable as either global or as a class member ?

if you do something like

{
  MyDialog dlg;
  dlg.Create(...);
  dlg.ShowWindow(...);
}<pre>

it will only show the dialog in the scope of the current function/method and will be destroyed as soon as you exit the current scope ( function /method ).

Very strange! You should not have experienced any of those problems. Simply creating the dialog and showing it should have been enough. If it works, go with it (no harm in this case), and when you have the spare time, try to find out whats realy going on.

I need to be able to automatically adjust recording mixer properties from inside my app such as making sure that "Line In" is selected versus Microphone or other device, set record volume to 50% and make sure left/right balance is set to 50%. I have looked at the mixer functions but n ot sure how to proceed. Can someone give me some sample code please? Thank you very much.

CDHtmlDialog couldn't trap WM_CHAR

I have tried trapping the WM_CHAR message within a CDHtmlDialog based dialog but couldn't. I used Spy++ and discovered that the messages WM_KEYDOWN,WM_KEYUP and WM_CHAR were actually sent to my dialog. But they don't get passed to my code in either OnChar,OnKeyDown or OnKeyUp.

I need to handle either of the three messages so that I can read from either my barcode scanner or the keyboard. Please help? Cry | :((

Get the number of bytes a process has written to disk

How could I get the number of bytes a process has written to disk during its run-time on a Windows system?
The process could be any running process like explorer.exe.
I heard there are some ways to do this on other operating systems, like by getting the truss output of the process, but I can't figure out how to do this in Windows.
Could someone suggest any ideas?

GetProcessIoCounters(...) is the one to use:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/getprocessiocounters.asp[^]

If you don't have the newer SDK, then do the following:

typedef struct _IO_COUNTERS
{
ULONGLONG ReadOperationCount;
ULONGLONG WriteOperationCount;
ULONGLONG OtherOperationCount;
ULONGLONG ReadTransferCount;
ULONGLONG WriteTransferCount;
ULONGLONG OtherTransferCount;
} IO_COUNTERS, *PIO_COUNTERS;

typedef BOOL (WINAPI* Func)(HANDLE, PIO_COUNTERS pio);

Func GetProc;
HMODULE hModule;
hModule = LoadLibrary("KERNEL32.DLL");
GetProc = (Func)GetProcAddress(hModule,"GetProcessIoCounters");
IO_COUNTERS pc;
BOOL b;
b = GetProc(GetCurrentProcess(),&pc);

Now pc will contain the information.
The second parameter for the function is the one you would want to change to the process you want to view. You can use EnumProcesses(...):

this is this.

C++ newbie question: how to rotate and read pixels?

Hi folks,

I'm new here and very new to c++ i have however programmed a lot in visual basic.

I have managed to make a window with some controls on it (simple ones) however i have a problem.

How do i read in a gif file and go through it pixel by pixel checking the color? (are there tutorials on this?) then after i have done some calculations how do i rotate the picture like 20 degrees and then save it so i can read the pixels again of the rotated object? (are there any tutorials on this?)

I'm very new to this all but i have to make it for school any help or tips/ideas are welcome

thanks in advance

u can use GDI+. The classes Graphics and Image let u manupulate images. see msdn help on GDI+ for more.

Hi thanks for the fast reply but i have searched and GDI+ seems to be only for .NET? i have the visual c++ 6 version. Do you have by any chance a tutorial for this subject (a link or so?) i'll try searching further hope you can provide me with some links.

greets

no, you can use it in VC6. for example:

Get the spec for a GIF file from http://www.wotsit.org/

To rotate, is just simple geometric calculations, a triangle, you know the angle and you know the length of 1 side, applied to each pixel, don't forget the resulting bit map will be larger than the one you started with.

If you search the net you will find better algorithms.

Thank you.
I just want to create a self defined toolbar.There is just one command that all the buttons are handled .Only difference is that the buttons have different string attached.
Then I can fetch the string for advanced processing.

Why do you not want the document to update the view? The view is supposed to render what the document contains. When the document changes, it notifies the view that it needs to be updated. It makes sense that you should be updating the document and let it notify the view through normal channels.
