I would instruct you to use ClassWizard, but that does not exist beyond VS v6. I think it has been "replaced" with a properties-type of thing. In any case, You'll need a ON_BN_CLICKED() entry in the dialog's BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP() method. Don't forget to implement the handler function.

I tried that. It complies fine, but when its running i tried it out, and it never reachs my method that i attached to it through the ON_BN_CLICKED() method... As of now im just grabbing the cursor on any double click, and having to compare to where my edit controls are, but this seems way to complex for something that i feel should an easier way..

loop processing

I have a dialog with several controls in it for several miscellaneous functions. Among them, I created a pushbutton control (function) which, when entered, loops forever processing the following:
opens a file, processes file data, closes the file, sleeps to
allow file access and repeats within the loop.

Once I select the pushbutton to do this, it locks me out from any of the other controls. How can I suspend (etc.) the loop to allow me to tell if another control has been selected and, if so, leave this loop to process the selected control.

Thanks, Ron

You need to put this code in a worker thread.

getline from file

Peter Charlesworth2-Mar-06 9:34

hi everyone!

I have a question regarding input and output with files (standard C/C++).
Whenever I use the 'getline' function to get a line from a file and then ask the
program to display that line, it always displays more than a line.
In other words: it doesn't stop 'getting the line' whenever it encounters a
newline.
How can I make sure he reads only one line and no more?
And how can I tell the program to get a specific line, like line n° 34
or the line that follows the words 'myline:' or whatever?

Thanks in advance!

Peter

The program that's supposed to get one line but gets more then that is this one:

<br />
#include <iostream><br />
#include <fstream><br />
#include <string><br />
using namespace std;<br />
<br />
int main () {<br />
  string line;                      // declare a string named 'line'<br />
  ifstream myfile ("example.txt");<br />
  if (myfile.is_open())             // if the file is open, then...<br />
  {<br />
    while (! myfile.eof() )         // while the end of the file is NOT reached...<br />
    {<br />
      getline (myfile,line);        // get a line from the file and put it in the string 'line'<br />
      cout << line << endl;         // output the contents of 'line' to the screen<br />
    }<br />
    myfile.close();                 // close the file   <br />
  }<br />
<br />
  else cout << "Unable to open file";    // if the file can't be opened, display "Unable to open file<br />
<br />
  return 0;                         // close the program<br />
}<br />
<br />

What do you mean? I tried your code verbatim and it worked fine.

It did for me. What was printed to the console window looked exactly like the contents of the file.

Well, what I'm trying to accomplish is this:

Suppose a file named "example.txt" has this as content:

<br />
This is line one.<br />
This is the second line.<br />
As you can guess, this is the third line.<br />

And i run the program i mentioned above, then it would output this:

<br />
This is line one.<br />
This is the second line.<br />
As you can guess, this is the third line.<br />

But it's supposed to output this:

<br />
This is line one.<br />

Getline... Get one line and then execute the next piece of code, but instead
it gets the contents of the entire file.

I use Borland C++ 5.5 as my compiler, maybe that my problem is a problem just with my
compiler.

Anyway, thank for responding!

So get rid of the while() loop and see what happens. If what you say is true, then a single call to getline()/cout will display the entire file.

Hi. anyone face this problem?

Downloading files
The Microsoft ActiveSync connection server has failed.
Please make sure Microsoft ActiveSync is running and retry the download by Rebuild All or Update Remote Output File(s).
Also make sure that you have selected the correct platform.
Failed downloading.

It seem that this problem was not new when i google this problem but no solution was given. Hope some kind souls will shed some light on this matter. =)

I have a long string.
-c:Tow:UDOP,0.2:dN:dE,0.005:L1P Sats,3

I have put this whole string in a CArray<cstring, cstring=""> csaColumns.

Now i need to seperate out the numbers from this array.

I want to do something like this.
for(i=0; i

Re: integer/ character

David Crow2-Mar-06 7:51

How about:

CString str = "-c:Tow:UDOP,0.2:dN:dE,0.005:L1P Sats,3";
for (int x = 0; x < str.GetLength(); x++)
{
    if (isdigit(str[x]))
    {
        ...
    }
    else // it must be a character
    {
        ...
    }
}

As you said, I am trying to do the following

int nLimit;
CString csChar;
for(int n=0;n < csaColumns.GetSize();n++)
{
if(isdigit(csaOutputColumns.GetAt(n)))
nLimit = atoi(csaOutputColumns.GetAt(n));
else
csChar = csaOutputColumns[n];
}

But i have an error: error C2664: 'isdigit' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'class CString' to 'int'
No user-defined-conversion operator available that can perform this conversion, or the operator cannot be called
Error executing cl.exe.

What do you think might be going wrong?

GetAt() returns a CString object, but isdigit() is expecting a single char/int. You need to also use the [] operator.

Hello. I'm curious how you call an executable from within a VC project? So I have a .exe that i want to call to generate some files from within my program. Would like to be able to do something like this:

void Do ()
{
Call ("foo.exe", "command line args") ;
}

How do I do this? Is there a windows equivalent or similar?
I need to pass it command line arguments.
Thoughts?

ANSI standard c++ for console programs would be system("foo.exe command line args");. I would assume that it would be valid for use in VC++.

Use CreateProcess() or ShellExecute(). WinExec() can be used for 16-bit systems, and system() is an antiquated function brought over from Unix.
