Menu dimensions? twomagiclovers14-May-02 5:34 twomagiclovers 14-May-02 5:34  Hi all, Is there a way to retrieve the bounding rectangle of a popup menu? Thanks! Re: Menu dimensions? Roger Allen14-May-02 6:48 Roger Allen 14-May-02 6:48  You could do this in the menu's parent window by handling the WM_MEASUREITEM message and calling the base class version from there. Take a look at the base class's return value and you will be able to work out how big the menu was when it was displayed. Not sure how to get it before its displayed.

CListCtrl LvnItemChanged() issues dazinith14-May-02 5:28 dazinith 14-May-02 5:28  whenever the selection in the list changes this function gets called: void CSelectReport::OnLvnItemchangedComplist(NMHDR *pNMHDR, LRESULT *pResult) { LPNMLISTVIEW pNMLV = reinterpret_cast<lpnmlistview>(pNMHDR); TRACE("selection = %i\n",m_lstCompanies.GetSelectionMark()); *pResult = 0; } however it always returns the item which was just unselected, not what was just clicked on.. its like its always lagged one step behind, which makes it imposible for me to update enabling/disabling of items based on the selection.. can someone please help me understand a way to correct this eroneous microsoft control/event handler? message map: ON_NOTIFY(LVN_ITEMCHANGED, IDC_COMPLIST, OnLvnItemchangedComplist) plz tell me someone else is familiar with this problem! thanks! -dz Re: CListCtrl LvnItemChanged() issues Bill Wilson14-May-02 11:44 Bill Wilson 14-May-02 11:44  "help me understand a way to correct this eroneous microsoft control/event handler" I can try to help you understand, but there is no "correction". This is not erroneous behavior. It is the way its supposed to work (read MSDN). From your description you are using the wrong event. You might want to try LVN_ITEMACTIVATE.

( I have problems with the DP, because it changes from a printer to the screen, and...). Thanks, Greetings Braulio Re: DrawText and MM_HIMETRIC David Salter14-May-02 9:24 David Salter 14-May-02 9:24  You should be able to DrawText in HIMETRIC, but you will need to take into account the different DPI of different devices. Dave. monthview control driving me mad benjymous14-May-02 5:08 benjymous 14-May-02 5:08  Is there anyone here who's used the monthview control in a dialog based application who can help me out with the problems I'm having (Using "Microsoft MonthView Control 6.0 (SP4)" using MFC and Visual C++ 6) I'm not sure if either I'm doing something very wrong, or just this control is full of bugs. Here are my problems: 1) If I display all 12 months, the days in the last month don't get displayed bold (they get set and unset correctly, and if I change the view to display that month anywhere bar the last displayed month it works fine) - My workaround to this is to just display 9 months and make the user flip back and forth to see the whole year (I predict complaints..) 2) The control grabs focus, meaning if I click on a date, then click on a button on the dialog, it just selects that button rather than clicking on it (1 click to deselect the monthview control, and a 2nd to actually click on the button I clicked on) 3) If I call my function that makes the days bold (using SetDayBold) from my OnInitDialog, the days don't get set bold. If I call it from a mouse click event then it works fine. I've searched MSDN and found a VB workaround to problem 2, but it wasn't much help to me using C++ Any help will be much appreciated -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit! an interesting design prob...no...situation 14-May-02 4:52 14-May-02 4:52  hello people,please read carefully. I have a situation with someclasses : X,M,S,E and some structures : A,B,C like this. class X is autonomous.(i dont know the correct word) class E has variables of type class X,structures A,B and C. class X has an pointer of type E(later becomes an array and still later destroyed) class M:public X class S:public X M has a pointer of type S.(later becomes an array and still later destroyed) now, all these mean class M has class E(and hence part of itself and S-so twice itself ) due to inheritence.I have to store class in list. two questions. 1.is CList safe? 2.where can I possibly leak memory. -20365 joe Re: an interesting design prob...no...situation Joaquín M López Muñoz14-May-02 5:00 Joaquín M López Muñoz 14-May-02 5:00  Uff... you're giving little information to know whether you will encounter memory leaks or not. A distinction has to be made between having (the "had" object is a member variable of the "haver") and owning (the "owner" has a pointer to the "owned"). In the second case, you have to consider what will hapen when objects are copied: M m1; ... M m2=m1; Are you duplicating the owned objects of m1? If not, then you will probably run into memory problems, as both m1 and m2 think they own the same objects of type S. You got to think out very carefully these issues, as CList implicitly will make copies of objects contained.

Kevin Gutteridge14-May-02 4:47 Kevin Gutteridge 14-May-02 4:47  Hi All, Can anyone help with this? I'm now totally confused by conflicting articles.... I have a 16Bit DLL that I need to call from a VC++ 6.0 32Bit application. The DLL cannot be recompiled (and it will have a short life anyway). The 32Bit application needs to run on Windows 9x / NT / 2000 /XP. My understanding is that I need to use the Generic Thunk for this - Is this correct? Is so how? I can find lots of examples of 16Bit calling 32Bit but not the other way around (and would'nt that be the more popular thing to do?) - Or is it so obvious that I am missing the point! The functions in the 16Bit DLL have been declared as below: int FAR PASCAL __export files_pack( char *, char *, unsigned, unsigned *, long ); int FAR PASCAL __export files_unpack( char *, char * ); int FAR PASCAL __export split_pack( char *, char *, unsigned *, long ); Does it make any difference because they use the PASCAL calling convention? HELP PLEASE BEFORE I EXPLODE! Regards Kevin. Re: Thunk - That's the sound of my head on the desk....

Accoriding to this.... http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q125710 A generic thunk supports all the platforms I require, and does not require the thunk compiler? Am I any closer? Regards, Kevin. Re: Thunk - That's the sound of my head on the desk.... Joao Vaz14-May-02 6:28 Joao Vaz 14-May-02 6:28  A generic thunk is for 16 bits apps calling 32 apps and not the opposite . Win95/98 supports flat thunks that permits a 32 app call a 16 bits app, this is what you want, I presume ? Win NT/2000 doesn't not support Flat Thunks at all, so you must devise your form of IPC(Interprocess Communication Mecanism) . For instance doing your stub dll between the 16 bits dll and your code.

Can anyone help me further with this? I compiled my .ASM modules for the 16Bit DLL, hunted around until I found my MASM disks, compiled the .OBJ, created a 32Bit DLL Stub but now I'm stuck on the linking. Below is the output from the compiler, I assume this has something to do with name mangeling? - Any suggestions? --------------------Configuration: ThunkDLL2 - Win32 Debug-------------------- Linking... thk32.obj : warning LNK4033: converting object format from OMF to COFF ThunkDLL2.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "int __stdcall pack_ThunkConnect32(char *,char *,void *,unsigned long)" (?pack_ThunkConnect32@@YGHPAD0PAXK@Z) Debug/ThunkDLL2.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals Error executing link.exe. ThunkDLL2.dll - 2 error(s), 1 warning(s) Re: Thunk - Funky code due to Pascal convention Joao Vaz17-May-02 6:50 Joao Vaz 17-May-02 6:50  _stdcall mangles names , so normally prefixes a underscore to the functions adds a @ and puts in the name the total bytes of the arguments , and something more e.g : pack_ThunkConnect32 function uses 4 arguments , so it uses 16 bytes(?) so the calle knows the amount of memory that must pop from stack to clean it . A fast way to see the name is using quickview utility that comes with windows , and view the mangled name on the exports table ?

I am trying to assign a pointer to my list control from CMainFrame to get the number of items in the list control (inside the MM timer function). When I run the following code it crashes my app.. int count; CListView* pList = (CListView*)(MDIGetActive()->GetActiveView()); count = pList->GetListCtrl().GetItemCount(); Is there a better way to get a pointer to CListView that wont crash my app? Re: CListView MDI 14-May-02 4:58 14-May-02 4:58  Never mind.. I just moved the MM Timer to my CListView derived class and everything is working fine.. tnx anyways
