Localization in Input String and Log files.

12-Jul-06 4:33

i have some expeirence with combo-box.
styles of combo-box can not be changed at run time (i.e. from DropDown to DropDown-list).
so when I needed to change its style, I deleted the control then created a new one - looks not good but it worked fine.

I never use edit in your way, but u may use my idea if modification at run time is not possible.

Not all styles can be changed at run-time. You can try ModifyStyle() to see if it works in this situation. You may find it easier to have two edit controls on the dialog template, one with the WS_EX_LTRREADING style and the other with the WS_EX_RTLREADING style. Then just show/hide the controls accordingly.

Dear all,

I need to re-engineer a very big existing source code(Mostly Non-MFC) for localization support.

For that the user input strings should be capable of support in the native language character set throughout the project.

Moreover i have to translate the log files in to regional language based on the language selection.

Kindly refer the Ted's article.

Kindly suggest me in this regard.
Regards,

Items appear twice in 'Find' results

GetKeyboardState() can get states of 256 keys at same time.

When I perform a 'Find' in my current VS2005 project, some of the files in my project get searched twice. So a word which occurs once in that file appears as two identical results from the 'find'.

Anyone know why? Can I clear it somehow?

Thanks for any suggestions Smile | :)

I did this OnOK Button of a dialog

CColorDialog *cDlg=new CColorDialog();
COLORREF myColor;
if(IDOK==cDlg->DoModal ())
{
	myColor=cDlg->GetColor ();
}
HDC hdc=::GetDC(m_hWnd);
SetTextColor (hdc,myColor);
TextOut (hdc,10,100,"hello",5);
::ReleaseDC(m_hWnd,hdc);

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

Comunicating Gina with user mode App or service

Hi
There is any way to communicate events, lets say "user loged in", "user logged off", from the GINA to a user mode App or service?

I mean, I know that I can write a file, or a registry key, and my app can read the info from there but I was looking for other way.

Thanks a lot people

If it was a usermode app, how would it get started before GINA for the first login after a reboot?

You could use shared memory, but you might want to think about what security descriptor to put on it, depending on what you actually write into it. ISTR that the late lamented Windows Developer Journal had a set of articles about communicating logon/logoff to apps.

Yeap I understand what you mean Steve, the login couldn't be handled that way...
I don't like the shared memory because that means a usermode app also is going to be able to modify data in the Gina, and that's not good at all.
I'll try to find those articles you talk about.

Thanks a lot Big Grin | :-D

I have found a great supported way, maybe in the future this will be usefull for someone.
Just google "Winlogon Notification Package"

Start working in any project and thinking on how to do it you'll learn a lot.
It's useless to tell you something, because there are not such thing as "super functions",
just classes wich are usefull for certain things.
Anyway I belive CString is the more usefull class in MFC and I always use it, there you have something to begin with.
