Hello Moonen,
sorry :->, ETSLayoutDialog Manager is here in the comunity, a litle framework to manage the dialog items,
mean, when dialog resize, normaly all dlg items stay on the same place, with this framework you can
replace and resize all items!
Here is the url:
http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/layoutmgr.asp

and my try:

<br />
// get pointer to my dialog on the first tabitem:<br />
CMyDialog* pdlg = ((CMyDialog*)m_cTabAll.GetTab(0));<br />
<br />
// now, here, the dialog is resized only in width, not in hight!?<br />
// if i take out this params 0, 0, -125, 0 -> the dialog on the first tab is 3-4cm under the tabs(with tabcaption)!<br />
// so, i set them 125pxls to top!<br />
CPane DIALOG = paneCtrl( pdlg, HORIZONTAL, RELATIVE_VERT, 0,0,-125,0/*613*/)<br />
<< item(pdlg, GREEDY);<br />
<br />
CPane TABCTRL = paneTab(&m_cTabAll,HORIZONTAL, GREEDY)<br />
<< DIALOG<br />
<< itemGrowing(VERTICAL);<br />
<br />
// i thake out the code that is not importend<br />
CreateRoot(VERTICAL)<br />
<< TOOLBAR // pane with toolbar<br />
<< TABCTRL<br />
<< PROGRESS<br />
<< itemGrowing(HORIZONTAL)<br />
<< itemGrowing(HORIZONTAL)<br />
<< item(IDC_STATUSBAR, ABSOLUTE_VERT);<br />
<br />
<br />
UpdateLayout();<br />

hope this is a litle more information!

with best regards

If it comes from an article, then it's better to post in the message board at the bottom of the article if the article doesn't provide enough information.

MCI CD Audio Output

I built this little CD player for use in one of my apps using standard MCI strings and commands. What I can't figure out, is how to direct the output to a particular sound card.

By default, the output goes to whatever is the primary sound device at the time, but I figure there "must" be a way to redirect it, without changing the default output card.

Anybody do this before?

Hey, Rick.

I've got some MCI code in an app at the house and I'll be happy to look at it to see if I've fought that battle already. It's been awhile, and I've slept since then. Big Grin | :-D

The tricky part will be remembering to take a look. Send me an email from this post to remind me, and I'll poke around and see if I can help. I seem to recall that you can enumerate the devices. If so, I'll shoot you some code.

There is no such a thing called "FTP file". FTP is a protocol, which is used to transfer data in two formats: ASCII and binary.

Maybe you can clearify a bit about what you wanted? If you write data to the FTP server, which is mapped as mapped network drives on your local machine, then the write is just as you're writing to a local drive.

Simple answer: you can't.

But, why would like to do such a thing ? Provide as much relevant information you can so we can help you to find a better solution (it probably results from a bad design).

Hi,

Function as a string?? Why? ... but ...

You can get the address of a function with

<br />
FARPROC GetProcAddress(HMODULE hModule, LPCSTR lpProcName);<br />

You need the module handle and the name of the function.

Example for the function GetMenu from user32.dll

<br />
typedef HMENU (WINAPI *GETMENU) (HWND);<br />
GETMENU FuncGetMenu;<br />
HMODULE hUser32Dll;<br />
<br />
_hUser32Dll = ::LoadLibrary("user32.dll");<br />
if(NULL != hUser32Dll)<br />
{<br />
FuncGetMenu = (GETMENU)::GetProcAddress(hUser32Dll, "GetMenu");<br />
}<br />
<br />
if(NULL != FuncGetMenu)<br />
{<br />
FuncGetMenu(WindowHandle); //HMENU GetMenu(HWND hWnd);<br />
}<br />

This is an example for dynamic load a dll.
--> You need more than only the function name! You also need the function declaration.

you can't, not directly anyway.

but, you could create a map that maps strings (names) to function pointers.

The next sample for Visual Studio 2005 uses map and function pointers:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "math.h"
#include <map>
#include <string>

void main()
{
	using namespace std;

	typedef double (* FUNCTION_POINTER)(double);

	// make the map

	map< string, FUNCTION_POINTER > functions;

	functions["sin"] = sin;
	functions["cos"] = cos;
	functions["tg"] = tan;

	// test: call a function by name

	std::string name;

	name = "cos";

	FUNCTION_POINTER function = functions[name];

	double result = function(1.2);

}

I hope it works and gives you some ideas.

Complementing to the other answers already given, the quick answer would be no, at least not in the way BASIC (for example) lets you do it (something like execute("a=myfunc(10,20)").

The process of calling functions based on the contents of a string has to be manually coded in some way. The most "automatic" way is the already mentioned "GetProcAddress" (you can hide most of the steps required inside macros or in a general purpose function), but prototypes will be always a pain (unless if they are, trivially, the same).

Depending on the extent of work you are willing to do, you can go as far as building your own C/C++ interpreter. I did this once, for a home automation system, where I made a program to go through all of my header files, scan function names and prototypes, and write code to execute the correct function with the correct parameters based on the contents of a string (the command entered by the user). Is not very hard work if you control the classes and functions. If not then be prepared for trouble.

I hope this helps,

Winsock TCP Client disconnect

I have a question.
Are these same?

1. Close the client application window. [ Closes the stream ],
(Server gets out of the below block)

<br />
do<br />
{<br />
n=recv(client,buff,MAX_BUFF_SIZE,0);<br />
 if(n==SOCKET_ERROR )	<br />
  {<br />
   break;<br />
  }<br />
}while()<br />

2. UnPlug the client's network cable. [should close the stream?] ,
server never gets notified? it never happens. WTF??? WTF | :WTF:

I'm not able to detect the latter one. Please help. If the n/w cable is unplugged, the stream would be broken and it should fire a sock exception right? Unsure | :~

Hi,

the value from SOCKET_ERROR is -1
if you unplug the network recv will be return 0

Change your code to

<br />
do<br />
{<br />
n=recv(client,buff,MAX_BUFF_SIZE,0);<br />
if(1 > n)<br />
{<br />
break;<br />
}<br />
}while();<br />

TCP does _not_ maintain a connection, it only maintains information about the connection.

Unplugging the cable merely prevents data from moving.

You need to implement a ping or timeout type feature in your protocol if you want to be notified if/when the cable is unplugged.

Data Type Conversion Problem

Programm3r6-Sep-06 0:47

6-Sep-06 0:47

Hi all,

I'm struggling with the following:

I have these two pointer:
<code>char* username = "value1";
char* servername = "value2";</code>

And these other two pointers:
<code>
unsigned short* uni_domain;
unsigned short* uni_username;
</code>

And I'm trying to assign the fisrt two pointer values to the second two pointer, I tried the following:

<code>
uni_domain = (LPWSTR)username;
uni_username = (LPWSTR)servername;
</code>

But the function : <code>NetUserGetInfo</code> is not equal to <code>NERR_Success</code>, which indicates its not valid.

When I do this it works:
<code>
uni_domain = L"value1";
uni_username = L"value2";
</code>

But I'm sending values to a function, and the above will not help my cause.

Can anyone help me?

Only programmers that are better than C programmers are those who code in 1's and 0's..... Smile | :)

You can't typcast a unicode string to an ansi string, you must use the MultiByteToWideChar() function, or the W2A macro. I think you would be better off reading about the TCHAR strings and the _T() macro, it's a lot easier to deal with.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
