I think so, as long as the read and write operations are not happening at the exact spot in the file. See LockFile() for more.

Well, creating a bunch of threads on a uniprocessor machine is one way to not "shorten the read write time." The overhead of context-switching between all of the threads will be your demise.

Yes, but I've no experience with this. I think SetThreadIdealProcessor() will be required.

I'm not sure exactly what it is that you are asking here, but I think the answer is, "When more than one thread is involved, the processosr will need to periodically switch between them so that at any given monent, only one thread is actually active." This obviously incurs overhead that cannot be avoided.

Hi!

DOes anybody know, what I have to do, if I want either to create an new .XML-File or open an existing .XML-File to write at the beginning of this file?
I thought, that I can handle this like a normal text-file but that has been a mistake.
So, if anybody knows something about this, please let me know!

Thanks, Hanno

Why not just Google for those two interfaces? Also try CodeProject articles, and MSDN.

If you want a light-weight XML library (i.e. not MSXML), have a look at http://tinyxml.sourceforge.net/[^].

I used TinyXML in several projects, it works pretty well.

If you are typing at a command prompt (which is what I inferred from your "while pressing in console" comment), \r \n \t are meaningless. What exactly are you trying to do?

I'm not going to type numbers and then pressing F6, I need to write to console application stdin so it will read it like fscanf(stdin, ... ) or whatever the method until that character F6 encountered

Ok, let me see if I can put the pieces together. You have a Windows application that is going to spawn a console application. Right so far? The console applicaton is going to be reading from stdin, so you need to populate that stream from within the Windows application. Correct?

Exactly! and send that stream of floating numbers prepared as char strings array of course to console input so it will be reading it until F6 encountered.

CTRL Z is ASCII 26, you can enter it in your text literals using the octal notation \032

onSize of CDialog

ns28-Feb-06 4:48

28-Feb-06 4:48

Isn't the onSize() event supposed to fire when you resize a CDialog?

void CDlgMap0::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy) 
{
	MakePE();
	CDialog::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);
}

In my case the execution never steps into the function.

I have in the .h file, where I added it by hand

protected:

	// Generated message map functions
	//{{AFX_MSG(CDlgMap0)
		// NOTE: the ClassWizard will add member functions here
		afx_msg void OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy);

	//}}AFX_MSG
	DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()

The begin_mesage_map was empty. I've been away from MFC for 2 years (been using QT) . I see now I needed ON_WM_SIZE() in there. Thanks so much for the hint. It works now.

CEdit question (should be easy)

Hey,
I have no idea why this isn't working but I am trying to simply toggle between ES_PASSWORD on a edit control with in a dialog. I have tried Get/SetWindowLong and ModifyStyle and neither seem to work... Here is a sniplet of my code.

What am I doing wrong?

void CActivationDlg::OnBnClickedCMask()
{
	UpdateData(TRUE);

	m_bMask = m_bMask ? TRUE : FALSE;

	DWORD dwStyle = GetWindowLong(m_cKey.GetSafeHwnd(), GWL_STYLE);

	if(!m_bMask) // Remove password mask
	{
		TRACE("Remove PW mask\n");
		
		dwStyle &= ~ES_PASSWORD;
		SetWindowLong(m_cKey.GetSafeHwnd(),
						GWL_STYLE,
						dwStyle);
	}
	else		// Add password mask
	{
		TRACE("Add PW mask\n");

		dwStyle |= ES_PASSWORD;
		SetWindowLong(m_cKey.GetSafeHwnd(),
						GWL_STYLE,
						dwStyle);
	}

	m_cKey.Invalidate();
	
	UpdateData(FALSE);
}

Thanks in advance!

Are you sure the ES_PASSWORD style can be un/set at runtime? Some styles are unchangeable.

RobJones

28-Feb-06 4:49

You might be right... I did notice on MSDN that some of the other styles state if changes need to be made after creation use the SetWindowLong function, unfortunately it doesn't say anything about ES_PASSWORD, it probably can't be changed with ease...

DOH!

Thanks,

Rob

Would it be feasible to create two of the same controls, one with the style and one without? Then at runtime you could just show/hide the appropriate control.
