Ok, I would guess that HWND is a Handle to a Window and HANDLE is Handle to anything.. but huh, tell me..

Well that's basically it. An HWND is used to reference API functions that relate to Windows, everything from message processing to device contexts, etc. HWND and HANDLE are not interchangable, although as data types the value of one can certainly be assigned to the other.
The purpose of each is very similar. When you use CreateWindow, the operating system allocates an area that references that Window's characteristics, but essentially puts that area in a "black box", providing access to it through API calls, but not as a direct structure. This gives the writers of the operating system (Microsoft, in this case) the flexibility to change that internal structure any way they want to in the future without impacting the behavior of applications that use it. They only have to change the implementation of the function hooks. Essentially this practice (and other types of handles) was one of the first large-scale implementations of object oriented encapsulation.
Just my thoughts...

I can manipulate text and images on a regular device context. When I try, however, to do the same in a memory dc and "blit" it to my display dc all I get is black image.
I am sure it is a simple setting that I am forgeting but I can figure it out, for the life of me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

You have to create a compatible bitmap for the in-memory DC and select it into the one you created. The default bitmap for a newly created device context is (I believe) just a 1x1 monochrome bitmap. The steps necessary are:
hMemDC = CreateCompatibleDC(hDC);
hMyBmp = CreateCompatibleBitmap(hDC, nWidth, nHeight);
hOldBmp = SelectObject(hMemDC, hMyBmp);
... draw some stuff on the in-memory DC ...
BitBlt(hDC, hMemDC, 0, 0, nWidth, nHeight, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
SelectObject(hMemDC, hOldBmp);
DeleteObject(hOldBmp);
DeleteObject(hMemDC);
... however, I just typed this off the top of my head, so it's possible there's a bug in it.

Well done. Only thing is you need to delete hMyBmp, not hOldBmp

Hence my disclaimer. Good catch, BTW! That's why I code in MFC.

Hello Friends
I am back again with a question. I have a dialog based MFC application in which I want to know whether my network cable is connected to my network card or not?
Which function is best for this and how to use it? Or any other idea to do this?
Regards,
Mahesh

Check out ISensNetwork. Also see here. In addition to a missing cable, there could other reasons for no connectivity.

Hi David
Thankx a lot for spending time to look at my questions.
With tons of thankx and regards,

i read IP Address of NIC, if Network Cable is Unplugged,
The Address is 127.127.127.0

Hi
Thankx a lot to you too......
U'r quote also helped me a lot.

An ISP connection does not mean the network cable is plugged in but would provide you with similar capabilities. I am assuming you want to see if you have network connectivity which requires you take any IP capable connection into consideration. Checking the routing table for a default route is the best technique I've come across so far as it does not require checking a URL, pinging an IP address, or other techniques that will not be entirely accurate in all contexts.
I got the idea from someone on CodeGuru before they upgraded their website and lost all the legacy comments. Unfortunately, I do not know the name of the person who passed on the idea so I can't give credit where credit is do but I'll pass it on...
The function to use is GetIpForwardTable(). I use a timer to periodically check for connectivity and update my status indicator accordingly. There is a slight delay maybe a second or two if you unplug the cable or plug it in (assuming your timer is set to fire every second). No noticeable delay when disabling the connection using a GUI tool.
Don't forget to include in StdAfx.h...
#include <iphlpapi.h> // For Routing table query
And make sure to reference the Platform SDK lib file...
iphlpapi.lib
BOOL CNetworkConnectionDlg::IsInternetAvailable(void)
{
MIB_IPFORWARDTABLE * pRoutingTable;
DWORD dwBufferSize=0;
BOOL bIsInternetAvailable=FALSE;
DWORD dwResult;
DWORD dwIndex;
DWORD dwRowCount;
// Get the required buffer size
GetIpForwardTable(NULL,&dwBufferSize,FALSE);
pRoutingTable=(MIB_IPFORWARDTABLE*)new BYTE[dwBufferSize];
// Attempt to fill buffer with routing table information
dwResult=GetIpForwardTable(pRoutingTable,&dwBufferSize,FALSE);
if (dwResult==NO_ERROR) {
dwRowCount=pRoutingTable->dwNumEntries; // Get row count
// Look for default route to gateway
for (dwIndex=0;dwIndex<dwRowCount;dwIndex++) {
if (pRoutingTable->table[dwIndex].dwForwardDest==0) { // Default route designated by 0.0.0.0 in table
bIsInternetAvailable=TRUE; // Found it
break; // Short circuit loop
}
}
}
delete pRoutingTable; // Clean up. Just say "No" to memory leaks
return bIsInternetAvailable;
}

Hello,
I've got a Problem with the "Reusable base class for SplitterWnd" from Daniel Zuppinger:
http://www.codeproject.com/splitter/st_splitterwnd.asp
I splitted the MainFormView vertical and added to each Pane a View in the OnCreateClient Method of the MainFrame:
m_pRightBottomSplitterWnd = m_pRightSplitterWnd->AddSubDivision(BOTTOM_SIDE, RUNTIME_CLASS(CViewChooser), RUNTIME_CLASS(CView1), pContext, true);
Now I click on a Button in the right Pane and going to change the View in the Left Pane. For Example from CFormView to CHTML View or whatever. Therefore I call a Method in the MainFormView Class by clicking the Button, with the following code:
m_pRightBottomSplitterWnd->AddView(RIGHT_SIDE, RUNTIME_CLASS(CView2), NULL);
But that still doesn't work and I got a runt-time-error. The Debugger stops at the following code, from the SplitterWnd Class:
<br />
inline void SideToRowCol(int nSide, int* nRow, int* nCol) <br />
{<br />
if (m_bVertical) {
*nRow = 0;<br />
*nCol = nSide;<br />
}<br />
else {<br />
*nRow = nSide;<br />
*nCol = 0;<br />
}<br />
};
I hope you understand my Problem and can help me.

Are you using ST_SplitterWnd::SwitchToView() for this?

There are no answers in the article forum and I don't have any contact data about him.

No, I try to use the AddView Method:
m_pRightBottomSplitterWnd->AddView(RIGHT_SIDE, RUNTIME_CLASS(CView2), NULL);
And I'm not sure what SwitchToView() exactly do?!

Ok SwitchToView() was a good idea!
And I've to read the tutorial better!
This is the example code:
m_nViewNo1 = m_pSplitterWnd->AddView(RIGHT_SIDE, RUNTIME_CLASS(CSplitterWndTestView), pContext);<br />
<br />
m_nViewNo2 = m_pSplitterWnd->AddView(RIGHT_SIDE, RUNTIME_CLASS(CSplitterWndTestView6), pContext);
AddView returns an integer, which identicates the View. (Just begining with 0 and then increments)
To Switch a View in a Pane, you can use the SwitchToView Method.
The first argument indicates the pane and the second the view (The number returned by AddView).
SwitchToView works to me, but only when I call it directly after creating and filling the Panes.
My Problem is still, that an error occurs by calling the SwitchToView Funcion a bit later. As I described above, for example by clicking on a button...
What could this Problem be?

Ok I solved it 
And as I said it was a simple one:
I accessed the MainForm with the following code:
reinterpret_cast<CMainFrame*>(GetDocument())->UpdateFunction;
But I have to use this one:
((CMainFrame*)theApp.GetMainWnd())->UpdateFunction;
I'm not a MFC expert and can not describe really what the problem was but when you try to change a view use the SwitchToView Function and acess the MainFrame like the second code post.
Perhaps it could help someone.

Hi,
How can you set that your dialog box's size cannot be changed anymore upon load? (cannot be maximized). I've already removed the maximize and minimize buttons but it still maximizes. Can anyone help me? I'm using mfc.
Thanks a lot.

Intercept the WM_SHOWWINDOW message, and only allow SW_SHOW and SW_HIDE as parameter for a base class call.
