hi guyss
I am in a grt problem. when i use installshield to build the setup file of my project, i follow all the steps required properly. after that the setup file is also created but when i install it neither it comes in the "all program". also when i install it in any other computer not having vc++ after installation when i click the exe file to run it gives an error of a missing dll file but i have included this dll file while making the setup. please help as soon as possible as i have to submit the project by a week.
Thanksss

What exact is teh error Message.. if your Application is build in release mode!, as the debug mode dll may or may not be installed on destination computer

Hi,
Does anyone know of a function that will allow me to distinguish between normal shell items like a text file or a folder & special items like MyComputer, shared documents folder, C drive, CD drive etc. In other words how do I get the attributes of these special folders.
Many thanks.

I am struggling with an issue. I have a client on who's machine, when a CFrameView derived class comes up, (3 do this) shuts down the app without a message of any kind. The code is now using VC++.net 2003 and the problem surfaced in an older version originally built in VC++ 6
I think I know what is happening. In the base classes if Create returns -1, it puts a message in the message que sutting down the app.
Initially the app started shutting down in a CWin derived splash window due to the same issue, I got that straightened out, but the situation seems to be a bit more pervasive
Does anyone have a clue, what causes -1 to be returned by window creation code?
This app runs fine on many other machines, and has been reliable for quite a while, two of these classes are those that I draw custom on, the other uses the CHTMLView and uses a locally created html file.

Ive got a self made class called Vessel which is a base class for the classes Surface Vessel and Submarine.
The base class holds the data needed for both submarines and surface vessels and then the submarines and surface vessels have thier own data and functions.
Now i have tried to do a linked list where the data in the node is a "Vessel". I can pass a surface vessel or a submarine into this but when i try to get the data back out it loses the inherited class specificities (is that even a word? lol) so i can only access the Vessel data for that particular surface vessel or sub and not the particulars of that class. How can i put a surface vessel or sub into a type "vessel" and get the specific data out again or perhaps change the node data to a sv or sub on the fly?
Cheers

Add (pure) virtual functions that return desired information to Vessel, and override them in SurfaceVessel and Submarine.

so when i assign a sub to the variable of type Vessel its still holding it as a sub but just cant see the functions / data?

heres the vessel class so how could i impliment the pure functions in them because vessel would have to be totally abstract would it not?
Cheers

How are you placing the Vessels into the list?
If you are declaring the list to hold whole Vessel types, then that is what is well do. Which means it will only hold the part that represents the base vessel, basicaly slicing off every thing else.
list<Vessel> myList;
You need to store pointers to the base type Vessel in the list. Also remember that you will be responsible for deleting them when they are removed from the list and before the list is destroyed.
list<Vessel*> myList;

ahh i am basically just passing them in and obviously its being sliced because im only holding the data temporarily when its inputted by the user then it is stored in the nodes Vessel variable. Does this mean that i will have to have make a variable of each type in order to store any type?
Thanks

No. A base class pointer can point to any of it's derived class. When mixed with virtual functions you can ensure that the function in the correcct derived class is called even when invoked through a base class pointer.

the thing is that in my nodes in my linked list the data is held as a Vessel so if i used a pointer instead of a variable, i would have to declare the variable in the program and not in the class. At the minute im using a temporary variable declared depending on whether a sub or a surface vessel is made and then it assigns the temporary variable to the class variable. If i used a pointer to point to the temporary variable, if i tried to make another of the same type it would overwrite the old temporary variable would it not and therefore the previous node and pointer to the original values in the temporary variable would be worthless?

Can you show the code with this "temporary variable"?

temp.setSubSpeed(_addtodb._vesselMaxSpeedSubmerged);
temp.setDisplacementSub(_addtodb._vesselDisplacementSubmerged);
temp.setTorps(_addtodb._vesselTopedoes);
list.addNode(&temp);

as a small example from my main prog, there are more elseifs too for other types chosen

I can see a number of problems here. One of them is the following usage pattern:
{
SSK temp;
list.addNode(&temp);
}
To fix this problem use code like this:
SSK pTemp = new SSK;
list.addNode(pTemp);
Now the pointer in "list" doesn't outlive the object it points to (when it does the pointer is known as a "dangling pointer").
You have to remember to delete the object you newed when you no longer need it: with new you manage the lifetime of the object explicitly. For example to empty "list" and delete all the objects it contained you can use code like this:
template <typename T>
struct Delete_Object
{
bool operator()(T *pObj) const
{
delete pObj;
return true;
}
};
for_each(list.begin(), list.end(), Delete_Object<Vessel>());
list.clear();
Finally because we're calling delete on the base class but the actual object is of a derived type the descructor has to be virtual:
class Vessel
{
public:
virtual ~Vessel()
{
}
};

 Thanks David, I knew I should have checked.
The quote came from one of my new class mates who insured me that it was accurate and that I did not need to verify the source, since he wrote a paper on the author.

As Ronald Reagan once said, "Trust but verify."
Back when I was in college, Prof. Dijkstra came and gave a colloquium. It was intense, but I do remember him having a slight bit of humor, too.

Hi, I have a quick question on the printing:
I have a VC++ 6.0 application that prints labels on the label paper. In my printer (Canon i550), it prints properly within the dimension of the label. The way I print from the application is that I use GetPrinterDC() and attach it to CDC and then do TextOut to print at certain location.
It prints correctly on my printer however when I tried to print on a different printer (Epson), the font became slightly bigger and the contents go out of the specified label area.
What do I do to fix this issue?
Here is the code that print:
CDC dc;
dc.Attach(printdlog.GetPrinterDC());
DOCINFO docinfo;
memset(&docinfo,0,sizeof(docinfo));
docinfo.cbSize = sizeof(DOCINFO);
docinfo.lpszDocName = "Labels"; // document name for the spooler
CFont f;
f.CreateFont(54,0,0,0,100,0,0,0,0,0,0,ANTIALIASED_QUALITY,0,"Arial");
dc.SelectObject(f);
if (dc.StartDoc(&docinfo) > 0)
{
dc.StartPage();
dc.SetMapMode(MM_TEXT);
dc.TextOut(i_Width-120, i_Height, m_Tit);
.
.
.
Thanks for your help,
JK

You can use GetTextExtent to see how 'wide' your text will be. If it is too wide for the label, then recreate the font with a smaller height so that it will fit on the label.
You are merely being subjected to the different interpretations of the fonts within the different printers.

Hi,
i want to extract a zip file for which i used ShellExecute()
from my VC++ program. since it is a password protected zip file i had to pass that password too to that function.but when i do that i got the error as
Winzip parameter validation error.
the code i used is
ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "winzip.exe", "-e -s"+bcs+" E:\\bcs.zip","C:\\extract\\here", SW_SHOWNORMAL);
where bcs is my password.
im not sure whether ShellExecute() is the appropriate fn for this.if anyone can suggest another method, please help me
