A xml file *is* a text file. There are no problems what so ever to use fopen in order to open a xml file.
(Furthermore, there are no problems opening a binary file either. Just give the correct opening flags, i.e. "rt" for reading a text file, "rb" for reading a binary file).
But there are newer ways of file handling besides using the old C functions. Consider using them.

There is no such thing as "opening a file in a specific format".
If there was, then every file format would have a corresponding C-function for opening it.
It's up to you to know the format of the file you're opening. The only thing you can choose from is whether carriage return and line feed combinations should be translated to a single line feed or not. That's the difference between calling fopen with or without the "t" switch in the mode string.
When you've opened the file with fopen you can use fread for reading the contents of the file and fclose for closing it.
Consider using file operations from MFC framework or STL library instead.

Then what was problem ?
deeps_cute wrote: i think fopen cant be used.
It can be.
As mentioned earlier, its a text file. Follow code, you would write for a text file.
deeps_cute wrote: but this normally used to open a file in a specified format na
I think you are mistaking file formats with opening mode. In case of file format like .doc you can use fopen, but you cant read its content to your like because of its format. But thats not issue with .xml file.

Hello , I am new to VC++ 6.0
I am now developing a MFC dialog based project which will display the signal information in real time and signal strength.
[IMG]http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w196/well_aisec/image-1.jpg[/IMG]
I need to have 1 analog meter which will constantly update the signal strength value as well as an oscilloscope which will graph the received signal in real time. What I will do to set a Timer which will trigger every 250ms for update and display in Analog meter. At the same time I need to perform
real time graphing for the signal. Meaning the two task is perform asynchronously.
Now here's come the problem.
As the timer is triggered in fast speed, my program seems very laggy to perform both operation in parallel.
May I know what's the problem and solutions?The timer consume a lot of memory space and processing speed? How to improve the program so that it can progress smoothly.
Thanks

What hardware do you use to collect the signal strength values?
Probably you should have a worker thread waiting on a waitable timer or multimedia timer event. When the timer expires a signal strength value sample is created and assigned a time stamp and put in a queue to be read by the main thread which should be responsible for the presentation.
In cases like this it's usually the data gathering which is time critical. It doesn't matter if the GUI is running 50ms late, the user won't notice anyway but the data would be correct (or as accurate as possible).

The signal strength values comes from a receiver, very much like a radio which will be connected to our serial port.
I am not sure the method you were referring( maybe you can further elaborate in a simple way which i can easily understand?). What I did was my program will be collect signal strength values at the predefined frequency. As the signal strength value of a fixed frequency keep on changes, I created a timer with 250ms time interval to read and update the display. This timer will trigger an event to collect signal strength and update the meter

Take a look at these[^] articles.
They are aimed at game developers and outline some of the timing issues related to running games at the same speed on various PC's. I feel they relate quite closely to what you are trying to do.

Your main problem is that the application slow and inresponsive, right?
Is your application multithreaded?
How do you interface with the serial port?
Does the receiver require you to request each sample, or is it sent automatically?
Are you using overlapped I/O? If you're not, then each call to ::ReadFile() will "hang" the application until something is received if the call is made from the primary thread.
There's a fairly large risk that it's the serial communication part that's causing you troubles. Have a look at Joe Newcomer's article on serial communication and see if that helps: clickety[^].

Since the base constructor is protected, is creating a derived class in function main() legal? gcc does not give even a warning. I was looking for a means to prevent creation of instances of derived class.

Yes, it is.

Make derived class's c'tor as private, or protected if want to make it inheritable.

You using public inheritance which gives the subclass access to protected members of the baseclass.
Declare the base class ctor as private, then the inheritance type won't matter.
You could also use protected or private inheritance:
class derived : protected base
class derived : private base ...but then the protection would be the responsability of the subclass which is not so great even if it's syntachtically correct.

I have got a window divided into 4 parts by means of a splitter. Each part is a CView-derived view which will display a jpeg image.
My problem lies in getting each view to display an image. After I select an image then the window appears transparent and only becomes opaque when I click on the menu bar. The image in the first view remains being displayed but the images in the rest of the views disappear. I have overriden the Paint function so the images should be repainted but this doesn't help.
I am using Visual Studio 2003 on Windows XP SP2.
Any help will be appreciated.

Are all the views displaying the same image?
|
|
|
|
|
No. Each View will display a different image. Each time File Open is selected from the menu then the next view is given an image to display. So eventually all 4 views will have a different image in it.

Are you using Doc/View architecture?
Regardless, each "view" window needs to have access to the image data so it can redraw the image
when necessary (tyically redrawing is done in response to a WM_PAINT message).
|
|
|
|
|
Yes I am using the Doc\View architecture. I have overriden the WM_PAINT and each view then should redraw/paint its own image. I am using CPicture as found here:
http://www.codeproject.com/bitmap/pictureshow.asp[^].
I tried storing the CPicture variable in the CDocument derived class but it seems only one CDocument is created for all 4 views.

That's what I was afraid of 
Do you create all 4 views at the start before you have 4 documents?
If so then Doc/View will get in your way a bit since a CView has no way to set a document later.
Maybe create the views with an "empty" document - by empty, I mean with some flag or variable
that indicates the image isn't loaded/available yet. When the image becomes available, use
CDocument::UpdateAllViews() to force a refresh on the views.
In your view classes you can override OnDraw() instead of handling WM_PAINT.

Hi,
I am making VC++.NET windows application. I made a configuration file (app.config) for my database server settings. But when I am trying to get setting from the file using “ConfigurationSettings” class I am getting NULL in it. Here is my code for that.
NameValueCollection* configCol = ::ConfigurationSettings::AppSettings;
Can I know what is the problem in this?
Thanks in advance,

hi experts
my problem is something like this..
i have a main dialogue in which i have a list control, and in the main dialogue i also have tab control. on the tabpane i have a list control again.
now my job is when i click on an item in the list control of my main dialogue and press ADD button on the main dialogue, that item should be added to the list control in tabpane, but this is not happening. please help me.
note: instead of having ADD button in the main dialogue , if i have it in tabpane itself the above problem is not there. and i am able to add the item from list control of main dialog to list contrtol of tab pane but i cannot have ADD button in tabpane

Can you post following code :
- Event handler when you click on the button
- Adding the string to the list in the tab control
