Not Overriding Overloading

You may overload the logical operaters like <, > and Mathmatical operators like - for Binary predicate conditional checking. so that the program is generalised.

Hi all,

I have a CListCtrl, which has an attached ImageList.
I set the image for an item and the image is displayed correctly. Very Well.
Now I change my project settings to releasemode, compile my application and now something strange happens:
In my ListCtrl only the first image in my ImageList is displayed, no matter, what index I specify. It works perfectly in debug-mode, but does not work in release-mode. So I can not singlestep through my application to find the error.
Since it works in debug-mode, I think, my sourcecode is correct. I copied it from a MFC book.

Can anybody tell me, where to look for differences between debug and release as far as imagelists are concerned?

Could you post code snipet so that we can trace the problem..??

Ok, here is what my code looks like:

CImageList StatusImage is a member-variable in my class.

OnInitDialog()
{
	StatusImage.Create(4,12,ILC_COLOR4,5,1);

	AddBitmapToImageList(StatusImage,IDB_STATUS_PLAN);
	AddBitmapToImageList(StatusImage,IDB_STATUS_GO);
	AddBitmapToImageList(StatusImage,IDB_STATUS_CRITICAL);
	AddBitmapToImageList(StatusImage,IDB_STATUS_FINISH);
	AddBitmapToImageList(StatusImage,IDB_STATUS_STOP);
}
BOOL AddBitmapToImageList(CImageList &imageList, UINT nResourceID)
{
	BOOL bReturn;
	CBitmap bmp;
	
	bReturn=bmp.LoadBitmap(nResourceID);
	if(bReturn)
	{
		bReturn=imageList.Add(&bmp,RGB(255,255,255));
		bmp.DeleteObject();
	}
	return bReturn;
}

When I access the ImageList in debug-mode, the correct image is selected. When I access the list in release-mode, only the first bitmap is displayed.
I even debugged the release-version, but I found no errors. Everything seems to work fine. But the wrong image is displayed.

How to hide the tabs in PropertyPage

u can do debuging in a release version too

set the following option in project settings

take project->Setting

now take c++ tab
in the optimization combobox select Disabled
in the Debug info combo select "Program database for edit and continue"
now take the Link tab
Tick the check box "Generate debug info"

now rebuild the project

Hi

I have a property sheet with tabbed property pages

When the property sheet is opened up, depending on some user settings some pages
are not displayed

When the property sheet is created, i add all the pages

the in OnInitDaig, i remove the pages i dont need with

RemovePage(&m_Page1);

this works fine, if i only open the sheet up once

If i try to open again, i get an expection error on RemovePage line, it seems the second time around
the page doesnt exist, how can i check so that the second time the sheet is opened up it doesnt try to removepage which has already been removed

anyone any ideas

thanks

if(m_Page1)<br />
{<br />
  RemovePage(&m_Page1);<br />
  m_Page1=0;<br />
}<br />

and check m_Page1==0 before RemovePage API

A_Laxmanm_Page1=0;

i think m_Page1 is an object of class derived from CPropertyPage

in that case how can we assign like this?

Yeh, you are right..we can't
I think we can solve the problem by maintaining the flags for pages. Smile | :)

I'm curious why you don't just call AddPage() for the pages you want added, rather than add them all and remove the unwanted ones.

Does the sheet get closed or hidden? How does it get re-opened?

Trying to compare a date to see if it is earlier of later.
My CompareFileTime function returns junk.. 0xffffff.

FILETIME Time;
SYSTEMTIME stime;
FILETIME ftime;

GetSystemTime(&stime);
BOOL bSys = SystemTimeToFileTime(&stime, &ftime);
LONG lfiletime;
FileTimeToLocalFileTime(&FindFileData.ftCreationTime,&Time);
//Time = &FindFileData.ftCreationTime;
lfiletime = CompareFileTime(&Time, &ftime);

0xFFFFFFFF is the same as -1, and -1 is a valid return value from that function. Are you sure you are getting the wrong result?

Peace!

Well, i check for -1, 1 or 1. In which case my algorithm totally misses the result. How would i catch it, would i have to check for 0Xffffff? Or does the computer know to equate that to -1?

0Xffffff is the hexadecimal representation of -1. So you can simply check for -1, this is exactly the same.

Post the rest of the code that evaluates the result, as well as a step-by-step of what you see in the debugger as those lines are executed.

displayiing a Dialog over a Dialog

Did you saw MSDN for CompareFileTime
In MSDN
"Return Values
–1 indicates that the first file time is less than the second file time. 0 indicates that the first file time is equal to the second file time. +1 indicates that the first file time is greater than the second file time.
"

I am displayiing a Dialog over a Dialog using
MyDlg->DispDialog.DoModal();
only the second Dialog (DispDialog) is displayed. How i can display both the Dialog same time. The Size of second Dialog is more than first Dialog.

If you only need to have your first dialog visible (without having to inject inputs), then you can simply use MoveWindow for the second dialog.
If it needs to receive user inputs, then you need to use modeless dialogs. You can have a look at this tutorial[^]

Are you doing this on the click of OK button?
What happens to the first dialog? Does the dialog close or something else?
If you want both dialogs to show and respond to user inputs create Modeless dialog as A_Laxman and Cedric suggests.

Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.
