Re: structures Paul M Watt3-Apr-02 6:08 Paul M Watt 3-Apr-02 6:08  You need to create an instance of the static structure outside of you class like this: struct RECT { ... }; class window { static RECT rClient; ... }; RECT window::rClient; Declaring the RECT window::rClient outside of the class tells the compiler to allocate memory for the structure outside of the class, and only one instance will be allocated for the class on the stack. Since it is on the stack, you do not need to do anything else to free resources. Re: structures 3-Apr-02 6:11 3-Apr-02 6:11  I wouldn't make a static variable be allocated with new like that probably, but if you want to safely delete it, you could do something like this: typedef struct tagWhatever { int x; int y; }Whatever; static Whatever * s_pstWhatever = new Whatever; class WhateverDeleter { public: WhateverDeleter() { } ~WhateverDeleter() { delete s_pstWhatever; s_pstWhatever = NULL; } }; static WhateverDeleter s_oWhateverDeleter; A DAO Problem ! 3-Apr-02 4:48 3-Apr-02 4:48  Hi ! I have several databases (in mdb format) for my MFC project. I decided to put them on a server in the network. The path is like this: //netbackup/multimedia/erginasil.mdb The problem is: The server (netbackup)has a password which I have but the users will not have.If I first connect there ,the program runs normally. How can I acces a password protected server in the code. I found in msdn opening a password-protected "file" but I must give the "server password" to connect normally.

Suppose I want to start retrieving data from the third line but I don't know how much data is on the first two lines. Can I just read until I get two carriage returns? Something like: ifstream file(test.in); char test; for(int i=0; i<2; i++) { while(test!='\n') file >> test; } I know this code is most probably not right, I just put it in to help explain what it is I want I'm trying to accomplish. Can anyone tell me the right way to do it? Re: reading from file 3-Apr-02 4:02 3-Apr-02 4:02  You could use ifstream::getline(...) to remove unwanted lines. Re: reading from file alex.barylski3-Apr-02 4:31 alex.barylski 3-Apr-02 4:31  I have used that approach before. Probably not the best, but it works. Only you should take care when compiling under linux/unix...I don't think they support the same CRLF sequence I think it's just CR on those systems.

Any ideas? Re: Retrieving handle to the active MDI child window alex.barylski3-Apr-02 3:48 alex.barylski 3-Apr-02 3:48  GetActiveWindow() - MSDN The active window or NULL if no window was active at the time of the call. The pointer may be temporary and should not be stored for later use. Try setting the window's active state explicity with SetActiveWindow() somewhere in your code and then try GetActiveWindow() see what happens... If it's a temporary pointer...you only wanna use it right after the call to GetActiveWindow(), is this perhaps causing your problem...? I dunno why it would fail...other than what the above states.

Re: Retrieving handle to the active MDI child window 3-Apr-02 6:13 3-Apr-02 6:13  You could try sending the WM_MDIGETACTIVE to the MDIClient window. Icons in a Listctrl with owner draw fixed style Cris3-Apr-02 2:58 Cris 3-Apr-02 2:58  Is possible insert icons in a ListCtrl with owner draw fixed style ? How ? Thanks ... Cristiano Re: Icons in a Listctrl with owner draw fixed style alex.barylski3-Apr-02 3:30 alex.barylski 3-Apr-02 3:30  I don't see why not, however you'd have to handle to the drawing of the icons. Your associating the icons with a CImageList, not the actual CListCtrl itself. You'd have to get the image out of the imagelist and draw it to the DC passed to you in the DrawItem().

Do: list <sometype>::iterator i; for (i=mylist.begin(); i!=mylist.end(); i++) { if (...) { i = mylist.erase(i); } } and your iterator will be right on track. Re: remove item from std::list Jack Handy3-Apr-02 4:46 Jack Handy 3-Apr-02 4:46  I beleive this is correct however you should also do i--; after the erase() call because erase() returns the next iterator and it will get ++'d at the top of the loop therefore skipping the item after the one you erased.
