Sometimes (always) I'm lazy...
so I add libs via include file, here an snip from my OpenGL project:
<br />
#pragma comment(lib, "OpenGL32.lib") //link with OpenGL32 Library (VC6 Sytnax)<br />
#pragma comment(lib, "Glu32.lib") //link with Glu32 Library<br />
Hoep it helps, Moak

I'm learning to use DialogBoxes in "C", via LCC-win32 compiler. My question is about managing virtual-keys. I can manage them while dialogues don't have controls (via WM_KEYDOWN message) but otherwise can not capture these virtual-keys. I guess this is about focusing on child-windows(buttons, checkboxes etc). But why? How?... In fact I can manage them if I use "ACCELERATOR" but want to learn that if is there a solution to do this without accelerator tables. I can not give a meaning to this. Isn't this WM_KEYDOWN message sending before a control? For instance, I have an aboutbox which has two buttons(OK-CANCEL), how can I capture VK_END virtual-key?(again; without accelerator tables). Thanks from now on whose interested in.

Maybe you could try handeling the pretranslate message and trap it there. Not sure, just a guess.

In dialog boxes, handling accelerator keys require a slight tweak. I have explained this in the following article :-

Hi,
Thanks Nish. Thanks for your advance. In fact I'm very weak in C++, nevertheless I will try your article
|
|
|
|

Anyone have some info on that? I'd very much like to learn something about it. The new Winamp 3 has it, anyone know anything about it?
Thankyou

I don't remember the names of the functions you use to make transparent windows, but search in the articles, I know there's a couple about this subject...

They are supported only in W2000 and XP AFAIK. So to write an app that uses them you need to late bind to the function and detect the OS before callng them. I've done it, LMK if you can't find an article that covers this stuff and I'll knock one up for you.

You should be able to find a couple of articles in MSDN and the APIs if you do a search on Layered Windows.

Actually it's not that hard, you just use the SetLayeredWindowAttributes function.

WHen i try to compile my program, the compiler says that WS_EX_LAYERED and LWA_ALPHA an undeclared identifier. in the msdn library it says to include the windows.h file, and i have already included that...
|

You need a later platform SDK in order for these to be defined.
If you don't want to bother downloading it, slap this on your source file:
#ifndef WS_EX_LAYERED
#define WS_EX_LAYERED 0x00080000
#define LWA_COLORKEY 0x00000001
#define LWA_ALPHA 0x00000002
#endif

I am trying to implement a document/view application. I got the program to compile but it stalls when the line 'AddDocTemplate(pDocTemp);' is executed. I keep getting the 'Debug Assertion Failed' box. Below is a snippet of the InitInstance code. Thx
BOOL CApp::InitInstance(void) {
//register class and document
CSingleDocTemplate *pDocTemp;
pDocTemp = new CSingleDocTemplate(IDR_APP,//UINT nIDResource
RUNTIME_CLASS(CAppDoc),//CRuntimeClass* pDocClass
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMain),//CRuntimeClass* pFrameClass
RUNTIME_CLASS(CAppView));//CRuntimeClass* pViewClass
AddDocTemplate(pDocTemp);// !!!Problem here
//parse command line info
CCommandLineInfo cmd;
ParseCommandLine(cmd);
//dispatch command line info
if (!ProcessShellCommand(cmd))
return FALSE;
//show/update window
m_pMainWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
m_pMainWnd->UpdateWindow();
return TRUE;
}

Hi,
Does anyone know of a good FREE platform independant source
code control system that works with Visual C++?
I tried installing cygwin and its port of CVS
but Visual C++ projects seem to have a problem
co-existing with it. 
Thanks

I haven't used it myself but you might want to give WinCVS a try.
Good luck!

Folks,
When I replace the background HBRUSH on a Window:
1) Am I expected to delete the OLD HBRUSH?
2) Expected to delete my NEW HBRUSH?
Or both? 
Mike.

Restore the old one when done. Then, you can call DeleteObject() on both.

Hi,
I have a listbox which I automatically scroll down when I add new new lines (for a chat). Unfortunately, I want to avoid this autoscroll behaviour when the user decided to scroll up and look for older text. Because otherwise each new incoming text would anoyingly scroll to the end again.
Hmmm, my idea was to look on GetScrollPos() and do not autoscroll when the position is != the ending position. Is this a good idea, any other ideas?
Thx for help.

Deselect the autoscroll feature. When inserting a string, check first whether the cursor is at the bottom, and if so, do a SetCursel to the new line. Otherwise, do nothing.

Using the scroll bar doesnt change the cursor/caret.
Also my idea with GetScrollPos() doesn't work alone. I need to calculate the TopIndex + number of visible items to get the ending position - or more easy I think: I use ItemFromPoint() and compare it with GetCount()-1. Let me implement it...
Have a nice weekend.

|

here it is:
BOOL CListBoxChat::IsAutoScroll()
{
int nBottom = GetBottomIndex();
if(nBottom == LB_ERR) return FALSE;
return (GetBottomIndex() == GetCount()-1)?TRUE:FALSE;
}
int CListBoxChat::GetBottomIndex()
{
ASSERT(m_hWnd);
CRect rect;
GetClientRect(rect);
int nIndex = LOWORD(::SendMessage(m_hWnd, LB_ITEMFROMPOINT, 0, MAKELPARAM(0, rect.bottom)));
if (nIndex == LOWORD(LB_ERR))
{
nIndex = LB_ERR;
}
return nIndex;
}

I vote that you give it a try. If it works then it is a good idea, if it doesn't work then it isn't.

Hi there ...
I wrote a structure like this:
struct MyObject
{
CDC dc;
CBitmap bmp;
short x, y;
};
In one of my functions i want to make a refrence parameter ...
I mean the function can chenge the value which got from parameter.
It is my function:
void CTileDlg::SwapTiles(MyObject &myObj)
{
int x, y;
short col, row;
x = myObj->nX;
y = myObj->nY;
col = myObj->nCol;
row = myObj->nRow;
myObj->nX = objNULL->nX;
myObj->nY = objNULL->nY;
myObj->nCol = objNULL->nCol;
myObj->nRow = objNULL->nRow;
objNULL->nX = x;
objNULL->nY = y;
objNULL->nCol = col;
objNULL->nRow = row;
}
I have to pass MyObject pointer object to that.
For example:
MyObject *mo;
SwapTiles(mp);
Could you tell me how can i make a right refrence function ?
