you're right, i fixed this...
anyway, i was joking, so it doesn't really matter, because i doubt one will compile this

Hi everybody,
in my project i have a complicated/strange structure of architecture :
MDI Project -> Frame(1) -> View(2) -> TabWnd(3) -> View(4) -> TabWnd(5) -> View(6)
1) The Frame with all customers
2) A View which contains the TabWnd
3) Each Tab of the TabWnd corresponds to a Customer
4) The View which displayes the informations and a Tab
5) The Tab with several opened "orders from this customer"
6) The detail of the order
If i press the ESCAPE Key in the Order-View(6) i send a Message to the MainTab(3) which
should close the entire Tab (should close 4+5+6)
The "RemoveTab" Function performs a ->DestroyWindow() of the View in this Tab (4)
Now the question : Why does it calls the destructores in the different way?
At first Destructor of the View(6), than the destructor of the View(4) which performs a "delete Tab;" and follows the destructor of the Tab(5)
Is it possible that the View(6) destroyes automaticly all Views from which he is the owner?
Big thanks

A parent Window, when closed, automatically closes all of its child windows. Your structure as you describe it appears to be something like this:
Frame(1)
|
+- View(2)
|
+- TabWnd(3)
|
+- View(4)
|
+- TabWnd(5)
|
+- View(6)If the window and/or object destructions are happening out of order, it's possible you've got a parent/child connection (either in the windows or in the objects) that's not correct.

I'm using Visual C++ 6.0 on Windows XP. I need to make a dialog box that graphs data being read in on the fly. The data is read in from a USB device. I need to be able to graph each point on a dialog box in a self made graph. So what I do first is draw a rectangle with the default white background. And then with relation to the pixels on teh screen I draw Lines to the appropriate point depending on the next value read in. I use the MoveToEx () function and the LineTo() function. I need to draw a new Line to a new point every second. I have a timer that triggers a WM_TIMER message every one second. When this is triggered I use SendMessage() to the dialog with the graph. I send a WM_PAINT message. In that the window is repainted and I draw a new Line. Problem is the previous lines get erased. How do I take a picture of the previous screen? If i can do that then I should be able to repaint that first and then draw the new line, right? Has any one else done there own graphing program before? I was thinking of using Matlab to do the graphing, but I don't have MatLab, and the program needs to be distributed to a lot of people so I'm guessing all of them will need Matlab right?
Thanks for your help.

I made a charting control some time ago and I wrote a CP article about it. If you are interested, you can have a look here[^], I think it does what you are looking for.

the article looks cool, I'll take a look, Thanks!

There's no need to only paint in response to a WM_PAINT.
Try breaking your drawing code into a separate method and call it from both the OnPaint()
and from OnTimer().
void MyDlgClass::DrawGraph(CDC &dc)
{
... draw graph to DC ...
}
void MyDlgClass::OnPaint()
{
CPaintDC dc(this);
DrawGraph(dc);
}
void MyDlgClass::OnTimer(UINT_PTR nIDEvent)
{
CWindowDC dc(this);
DrawGraph(dc);
}
Also you shouldn't send WM_PAINT messages yourself. Use Invalidate() and UpdateWindow()
for an instant WM_PAINT message instead

Ok, I'm drawing the graph in a seperate method like you said. It works! BUT it only works if WM_PAINT is not called. So lets say I have two dialog boxes open. which will most likely occur. If I have the graph dialog box open and then the user selects the other dialog box and moves it over the graph the part of the graph it moved over will be erased. How do I repaint that? I need to somehow get a picture of that area and repaint it.

You need to repaint it. Draw the rect, fill with white, draw the graph.

Also, for redrawing the lines you can store the points in an array and iterate through them
each time they need to be redrawn. Taking a snapshot of the screen doesn't work - what if the
user drags another window across yours? That's why you need to redraw everything every time
(of course you can use clipping to only redraw the portion of the window that needs to be
refreshed as well).

I c.. ok, I'll try keeping an array of the points.. But what is clipping? I'm guessing it checks which part of the window WM_PAINT needs to repaint? How would I be able to retrieve these coordinates?

I wouldn't worry about clipping yet In your WM_PAINT handler, clipping is setup for you
so I would recommend just getting all your repainting working properly. Then if you have problems
with flicker or something then worry about clipping.

Cool
I made a mistake in my sample code. You probably want to use a client DC instead of a window DC
in OnTimer:
void MyDlgClass::OnTimer(UINT_PTR nIDEvent)
{
CClientDC dc(this);
DrawGraph(dc);
}

What you can do in fact (and what I do for my chart control) is that everything (axis, grid, and series) is first drawn on a memory bitmap and then the bitmap is blitted on the screen (this avoid also flickering). So, when I need to add a new point, I simply need to draw the new line.
Of course, everything needs to be redrawn when axis change for example.

Sure, that's a great method IMO I never know how much to give OPs in one shot LOL
Thanks!

How to run an executable or an application in a particular computer.
Now i m checking with hardware profile id but seems not a unique id.
Is there any unique id to put in my code so that application runs in a computer that matches the ID?
|
|
|
|
|
Are you trying to say that the program is only authorized for certain computers. Is that the functionality you want?

and what criterias must match for a computer to run the application ?
|
|
|
|

Lemme tell you the purpose.
Our application has to be mounted into clients system and it is sent through a CD, so there shouldn't be a provision for the client to install in a system which is not authorized.
What needs to be done for providing authorization?
It can be like MAC ADDRESS since it is unique, but if the client system doesn't have NIC then there's no concept of MAC ADDRESS. can you gimme any other solution for this?

i'd be tempted to use a hash map on the processor ID and some other hardware that you're sure are present...
the principle of the hash map is that on same entry data, it will generate always the same output.

hash map?? please be clear
