Hello everyone! 
OK, I got VC++ 6 yesterday, and I'm trying to make a Windows app, but I got no idea how! I looked for tutorials but they're all either for command-line apps (which I already read one) or for VC++ 2003... I've coded in C++ before, but not for Windows... I need a basic introduction to how to create a GUI/form/window from scratch. Anyone know? Thanks!

I had a quick glance at this the other day and in certain places they give instructions for both VC++ 6 and VC++ 2003.

Haven't done any VC++/MFC for quite some time but, from memory, you may need something like GetWindowText() or GetDlgItemText().

totally agree...the Prosise book is a great MFC book. I also have the Petzold book right next to it (programming Windows 5th Ed)

Yeah, that GetDlgItemText() worked! Thanks!
And I'll buy that book if I find it on a store, you need to be very wise and powerful and have tons of patience to convince my dad to buy something off eBay... Thanks!
Now, I got into new trouble... I accidentally put in a breakpoint in some file which of I can't remember its name... How do I remove all of the breakpoints? I can't run my program anymore! 
Thanks!

THANKS very much to both of you! 
[Edit]
Nope, didn't work... I did what you said but there are no breakpoints listed! I try to run the application but I get this message box:
User breakpoint called from code at 0x7c901230.
And then it shows me an assembler code file with an arrow before this line:
7C901230 int 3
How do I fix that? Thanks!

Check the call stack to see what caused this to happen. It's possible that your code called a Windows or C run-time library API with a bad argument.

I started with the Scribble Tutorial[^].
It's a *very* simple MDI "art" program that takes you through most of the common stuff such as events, doc/view architecture, dialog boxes, device contexts, file I/O etc...

It seems Visual C++ dialog boxes limit the number of controls to 255. I tried adding more controls but it keeps reverting to the select tool. How do I get around this? Thanks!

why the he** would you EVER wanna put more controls than that on a form?

But seriously, I think if you really need to do that, you might wanna try adding them at runtime.

Client requirements. So there's no way of changing the limit? Adding it at run-time is my best bet? Doing that might complicate things?
|

i think you can add more controls by changing the id of the control from default to your custom names ( ie IDC_XXXXX1, IDC_XXXXX2 in to custom ones)
BTW: how u tried to create the controls? simply copy-> paste ?
Ninety-eight percent of the thrill comes from knowing that the thing you designed works, and works almost the way you expected it would. If that happens, part of you is in that machine.

no, this is a know issue... the only way to get rid of it is to add the 256+ controls at runtime...

Correct. It is a design-time limitation. Why do you not use a tabbed dialog instead? Surely you can put 255 controls into meaningful groups.

The editor limits the number of controls to 255, you can add more dynamically. But as the previous poster said, any dialog with that many controls is going to be a usability nightmare.
Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine.

Hi,
If you need to put so many controls on a single dialog, there is something wrong with your design. This is most definitely not manageable.
There are different ways to implement a manageable dialog, which does the same (or even better):
- property sheets
- sub dialogs
- child controls
- status bars
- toolbars
So the real question is why do you need so many controls on a single dialog.

Hallo everyone,
For the last two days I am stuck at a very silly problem. I want to call GNU zip (gzip.exe) from within a C++ program and redirect the output (compressed/uncompressed) files to a filename of my choice.
The command for compression/decompression is:
<br />
gzip.exe uncomp.txt > nuncomp.gz<br />
gzip.exe -d uncomp.gz > nuncomp.txt
I tried using different API functions :
<br />
With ShellExecute I have tried:<br />
ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "cmd", "/A /C \"D:\\gzip.exe\" D:\\uncomp.txt >D:\\nuncomp.gz", ".",<br />
SW_HIDE);<br />
ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "D:\\gzip.exe", "D:\\uncomp.txt >D:\\nuncomp.gz", ".", SW_HIDE);<br />
and some other variations. I have similarly tried to use the redirection operator > under system (STDLIB) and CreateProcess. But none seem to work. If any of you have perhaps used the redirection of output to a file in past please let me know.
I should mention that the functions work as expected when not using the redirection operator. The possible effects of adding a redirection are:
* the redirected file is never created and the function behaves as if there is no redirection
* a redirection file is created but the output is still written to the default file
* a redirection file is created but the executable (gzip.exe in this case) never exits or flushes the file.
Thank you
