you cannot access your dialog Items before initializing your dialog.

BOOL CMFCDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
}

you may add ur code into initdialog function that insert the elements into the list box

BOOL CTestDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
CDialog::OnInitDialog();
//my code for adding the data into listbox
}

memcpy

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way to copy partial memory contents(variables) from one structure to another using the memcpy function.

ie

struct TEMP{
int x;
int y;
int z;
};

I would like to copy the struct TEMP except the variable int z, to another struct TEMP?

Thanks

you could do : memcpy(&destStruct, &sourceStruct, sizeof(int) * 2);

but that's only good if the stuff you want to skip is on the end of the struct.

It probably works but the code is not safe and portable. The only guarantee is that the first data member and the struct have the same address (no virtual functions involved).

A portable solution is:

memcpy(&destStruct, &sourceStruct, offsetof (TEMP, y) + sizeof(int));

Loading list elements in a CListBox

Hi!

I try to fill a CListBox with elements of a CList object. The elements should be listed, as soon as the dialog will be opened. So, I have to do this via "OnInitDialog". But to get access to the list elements, OnINitDialog needs one parameter in his parameterlist.
Does somebody know, how I can overwrite this function?

Thanks a lot, hanno Smile | :)

If you overload OnInitDialog it won't be called. OnInitDialog must have the exact signature then only it's going to be called. You can do this write a new function called Init(...) with your parameter and call this function from OnInitDialog.

Hello everyone! Big Grin | :-D

OK, I posted a question 1 or 2 days ago about this... I already solved that problem, but now I'm facing another one!

The problem is that the maps don't load up correctly... Here's the ObjectType enumeration:

enum ObjectType<br />
{<br />
	// Empty tile<br />
	LX_EMPTY,<br />
<br />
	// Tiles for first layer<br />
	//L1_DESERT,	// Commented out because it's the default value (LX_EMPTY)s<br />
	L1_GRASS,<br />
<br />
	// Tiles for second layer<br />
	L2_ROCK,<br />
<br />
	// Tiles for third layer<br />
	L3_TELEPORTER,<br />
};

Here's some previous declarations needed to understand the troublesome methods:

<br />
#define WIDTH	512<br />
<br />
#define HEIGHT	384<br />
<br />
#define CHARW	32<br />
<br />
#define CHARH	32<br />
<br />
SDL_Surface ** mapLayerTiles;<br />
<br />
ObjectType mapLayers[3][WIDTH*HEIGHT];<br />
<br />
SDL_Surface * screen;<br />

Here's the method that loads the map layers:

void Mazzee::GetMapInfo(std::string map)<br />
{<br />
	// Map file streams<br />
	FILE * f[3] = {<br />
		fopen((map + ".ml1").c_str(), "rt"), <br />
		fopen((map + ".ml2").c_str(), "rt"), <br />
		fopen((map + ".ml3").c_str(), "rt")<br />
	};<br />
<br />
	//FILE * outputz = fopen("outputz.txt", "wt");<br />
<br />
	for (int x = 0; x < 3; x++)<br />
	{<br />
		if (f[x] == NULL)<br />
			exit(1);<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	// Get data for the layers<br />
<br />
	for (int x = 0; x < 3; x++)<br />
	{<br />
		int p = 0;<br />
		while (p < (WIDTH/32)*(HEIGHT/32))<br />
		{<br />
			//p = 0;	// Commented for debug purposes<br />
<br />
			// Exit if EOF was found<br />
			if (feof(f[x]))<br />
				return;<br />
<br />
			char v = fgetc(f[x]);<br />
<br />
			//fputc(v, outputz);<br />
<br />
			switch (v)<br />
			{<br />
				// Layer X (all)<br />
			case '.':<br />
				this->mapLayers[x][p] = LX_EMPTY;<br />
				++p;<br />
				break;<br />
<br />
				// Layer 1<br />
			case '|':<br />
				this->mapLayers[x][p] = L1_GRASS;<br />
				++p;<br />
				break;<br />
<br />
				// Layer 2<br />
			case 'o':<br />
				this->mapLayers[x][p] = L2_ROCK;<br />
				++p;<br />
				break;<br />
			<br />
				// Layer 3<br />
			case 'T':<br />
				this->mapLayers[x][p] = L3_TELEPORTER;<br />
				++p;<br />
				break;<br />
<br />
				/*// Newlines: Less p var by one<br />
			case '\r':<br />
			case '\n':<br />
				--p;<br />
				break;*/<br />
			}<br />
		}<br />
<br />
		//fclose(outputz);<br />
<br />
		// Close stream<br />
		fclose(f[x]);<br />
	}<br />
}

And here's the method that displays the map on the screen:

void Mazzee::DrawMap()<br />
{<br />
	// Fill with tiles<br />
	for (int x = 0; x < (WIDTH); x += CHARW)<br />
	{<br />
		for (int y = 0; y < (HEIGHT); y += CHARH)<br />
		{<br />
			for (int v = 0; v < 3; v++)<br />
			{<br />
				SDL_Rect src, dest;<br />
<br />
				if (v == 0)<br />
				{<br />
					if (this->mapLayers[v][(x/32)*(y/32)] == LX_EMPTY) src.x = 0;<br />
					else if (this->mapLayers[v][(x/32)*(y/32)] == L1_GRASS) src.x = 32;<br />
				}<br />
				else if (v == 1)<br />
				{<br />
					if (this->mapLayers[v][(x/32)*(y/32)] == LX_EMPTY) src.x = 0;<br />
					else if (this->mapLayers[v][(x/32)*(y/32)] == L2_ROCK) src.x = 32;<br />
				}<br />
				else if (v == 2)<br />
				{<br />
					if (this->mapLayers[v][(x/32)*(y/32)] == LX_EMPTY) src.x = 0;<br />
					else if (this->mapLayers[v][(x/32)*(y/32)] == L3_TELEPORTER) src.x = 32;<br />
				}<br />
<br />
				src.y = 0;<br />
				src.h = CHARH;<br />
				src.w = CHARW;<br />
<br />
				dest.x = x;<br />
				dest.y = y;<br />
				dest.h = CHARH;<br />
				dest.w = CHARW;<br />
<br />
				SDL_BlitSurface(this->mapLayerTiles[v], &src, this->screen, &dest);<br />
			}<br />
		}<br />
	}<br />
}

Here's the map files:

<br />
map1.ml1:<br />
...............<br />
...............<br />
...|...........<br />
...............<br />
...............<br />
...............<br />
...............<br />

You need to handle UPDATE_COMMAND_UI for that particular menu item.

You mean putting ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI as a switched case of the main dialog msg?

Like this?

case WM_INITDIALOG:
{
....
break;
}

case ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI:
{

//What to do here??

break;
}

Now I am confused. I don't know whether ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI exists in platform sdk.

But if you are able to solve please tell me.

Number of Children in a Particular Node

Can any one post a sample source code for counting the number of children excluding the grand children in a particular node in a Tree

Stephen Hewitt28-Jan-06 0:43

Stephen Hewitt

If I understand your question correctly you want to count the immediate children of a node. If this is the case code like this should do it:

UINT Count = 0;
HTREEITEM hItem = m_Tree.GetChildItem(hRootItem);
while (hItem != NULL)
{
  ++Count;
  HTREEITEM hNextItem = m_Tree.GetNextSiblingItem(hItem);
}

NOTE: I haven't actually tried this! Assumes you're using MFC (although it is easily adaptable if you're not).

Oops, it should look like this:

while (hItem != NULL)
{
    ++Count;
    hItem = m_Tree.GetNextSiblingItem(hItem);

MDI Without menu

27-Jan-06 23:24

I want a MDI app withOUT a menu, any menu.

With a SDI all I have to do is override PreCreateWindow() as follows:

BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
cs.hMenu = NULL; // no menu
return CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs);

}

This will not work for MDI (vs. SDI). Any ideas?

ON_MESSAGE(WM_MDISETMENU , OnMDISetMenu )
ON_MESSAGE(WM_MDIREFRESHMENU, OnMDIRefreshMenu)

HI joey Bloggs!
thank you for your reply!
i add the SetMenu(NULL).it works!@thank you very much,
but still has problems..

I add the micros to the ChildFrame as you metioned manually(there isn't WM_MDISETMENU message in my class wizard of VC6)as follow:

in the childfrm.cpp:
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CChildFrame, CMDIChildWnd)
ON_MESSAGE(WM_MDISETMENU , OnMDISetMenu )
ON_MESSAGE(WM_MDIREFRESHMENU, OnMDIRefreshMenu)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

and int the childfrm.h i add :
afx_msg void OnMDIRefreshMenu();
afx_msg void OnMDISetMenu();

but int the functions OnMDISetMenu() and OnMDIRefreshMenu(),it can't receive the message WM_MDISETMENU and WM_MDIREFRESHMENU!

could you explain it detailedly?
thanks a lot!

Joey Bloggs10-Apr-06 19:49

It's not ChildFrame it's MDIClient that you need to customise

class CMdiClient : public CWnd<br />
{<br />
.<br />
.<br />
.<br />
	afx_msg LRESULT OnMDIMaximize   (WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);<br />
	afx_msg LRESULT OnMDIRestore    (WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);<br />
	afx_msg LRESULT OnMDISetMenu    (WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);<br />
	afx_msg LRESULT OnMDIRefreshMenu(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);<br />
}

Then make CMdiClient a member of MainFrame and subclass it in the create

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////<br />
int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)<br />
{<br />
	if (CMDIFrameWnd::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)<br />
	{	<br />
		return -1;<br />
	}<br />
	<br />
	if (!m_oMdiClient.SubclassWindow(m_hWndMDIClient))<br />
	{<br />
		MYTRACE(_T("Failed to subclass MDI client window\n"));<br />
		return -1;      // fail to create<br />
	}<br />

Where is pstm set - It should be a pointer to a stream. I would think this code would crash when you call AddRef as you're calling it on a NULL pointer.

How to set the pointer to the Stream.
If i give the pointer to the stream it throws error as
'initializing' : cannot convert from 'struct IStream' to 'struct HBITMAP__ *'
I just give like this:
LPSTREAM lpStream = NULL;
.
.//Write some data into stream
.
STGMEDIUM medium = {TYMED_ISTREAM,lpStream,NULL};
medium.pstm = lpStream;
