Thanks to everyone for the posts.
I know these functions, but they don't realy explain how to load icons from files or "external" data sources - this is what I meant by dynamic (the icons aren't already hardcoded as resources in the executables). I found the functions I was looking for, which are:
ExtractIcon() - load icon from disk
CreateIconFromResourceEx() - load icon from memory
Sorry, I think I should have explained what I was after a bit better..
cheers,
Neil

I think you need to SHGetFileInfo to get information about file and... and also if you dont know about CImageList and its functions search on the codeproject it has a lot of good articles

Good afternoon,
I would like to restrict access to Windows in my program. More especifically, I want to block some "key combinations" (Ctrl-Alt-Del, Alt-Tab, Windows key). Until now, I did not find anything to help me.
Can someone help me?
Thanks for the attention,

Maybe you can use SetWindowsHookEx(WH_KEYBOARD,...) and eat the keyboard messages.
|
|
|
|
|
But not all keyboard combinations are passed on by Windows.

I think a global keyboard hook can catch everything except the SAS. If not a keyboard hook, then a CBT hook can... I am pretty sure one of them can catch everything except the SAS...
Peace!

I'm drawing a blank....what is "the SAS"?
Thanks,

Secure Attention Sequence, which is what's required for access to Ctrl-Alt-Del.

My program has some keyboard commands I've got to keep.
I would like to block only those commands which allow access to Windows.
Anyway, thanks for your help.

Well don't eat ALL the keyboard messages

I've researched the matter today; studied the Visual Studio documentation; but couldn't make it work.
It seems that SetWindowsHookEx() uses a callback function KeyboardProc(). But I found the documentation too confuse, and did not find any example code to help.
Maybe it is just the Friday effect, or the effect of all those Christmas foods, but I just couldn't understand it.
So, I would really appreciate more help.
Thanks!

I haven't written a keyboard hook so I have no code I can post but a quick search yielded
this article[^] and this article[^]
These should be helpful. Basically once you've installed the hook, in your hook proc you'll
need to look at the key code and if you want to eat the code, return TRUE, otherwise call the
next proc in the hook chain to let the message get processed as usual.
As others have noted, you won't be able to trap ctrl-alt-delete...the first article link above
explains this a bit

hi, happy new year. i'm having a problem with some open source frameworks, and i think it's a compiler problem. when i compiled the FOX toolkit (www.fox-toolkit.org) using the bundled VC++ solution, i configure the build by adding some external libraries (namely zlib, bzip2, libpng, jpeglib, and libtiff), by defining some constants (as suggested in the instructions). here's where the problem is: the library built fine, but when i tried building one of the examples, the linker gave errors about the C runtime library already linked in, and multiply defined symbols. i've had this problem before (after building wxWdigets and using it for an application), and i had to delete the project, rebuild the libray and recode the application. i'd rather not fluke fixing the problem. how can i fix this o i know exactly what to do everytime the problem comes up? thanks.

I use
EnumChildWindows();
for get "handle" of control in target window.
then I want to use IsKindof() function that is member of CWnd for check it is CEdit object or not.
Can I do like this?
|
|
|
|
|
Use CWnd::Attach().

Heh - you answered his subject, but that will not work for what he really wants to do as specified in his message.
Peace!

You can associate a HWND with a CWnd object using CWnd::Attach() BUT...
IsKindOf() works with object types so I don't think this will work for you.
You could use GetClassInfoEx() and examine the WNDCLASSEX lpszClassName member to find the
window's type.

That will not work correctly, at least not the way you would want it to.
You can pass the HWND to the ::GetClassName(...) function. Look up that function for more info on how to use it.
If the control is a standard Edit control, the returned class name will be EDIT. Lookup the predefined window classes for more info.
You could also check by sending the window a edit-control-specific message and see if the response you get back makes sense.
Peace!

::GetClassName()!!  I knew it existed but I swear I couldn't find it.
If only Microsoft used a more appropriate name for the API

Look up CWnd::Attach, CWnd::FromHandle and CWnd::FromHandlePermanent. Which you use depends on your situation.

You can use of CWnd::FromHandle
and From the MSDN:
"If a CWnd object is not attached to the handle,a temporary CWnd object is created and attached"

CWnd::FromHandle is one option.

You can achieve this without using above approach. Have a look at this code ,
static const TCHAR szEdit[] = _T("Edit");
TCHAR szCompare[256] = {0};
::GetClassName(hEdit, szCompare,256);
if (lstrcmpi(szCompare, szEdit) == 0)
{
}
