There's lots of ways to load and display a bitmap image.
The easiest way I know is using GDI+. Here's an example of loading an image and drawing it on
a MFC window (specified by "this") with upper left corner at 50,50. The same DrawImage method
will stretch the resultig image to whatever size you specify. I use te original bitmap size
below.
Gdiplus::Bitmap SrcBitmap(L"C:\\test.bmp", FALSE);
Graphics DstGraphics(*this);
DstGraphics.DrawImage(&SrcBitmap, 50, 50, SrcBitmap.GetWidth(), SrcBitmap.GetHeight());

I'm trying to implement a CEdit box that has a horizantal scroll bar that will fill up to 1000 characters at a time. I used SetLimitText to set the limit to 1000 characters. The problem cropped up when I tried to use SetRect(). After I called the function it would not let me place the cursor in the box anymore. I can still call ReplaceSel() and place text in the box that way, but I cannot type it in with the keyboard. Some of the code:
<br />
SearchStringEditBoxPtr->SetLimitText(1000);<br />
RECT EditBoxDimensions;<br />
EditBoxDimensions.left = 0;<br />
EditBoxDimensions.top = 0;<br />
EditBoxDimensions.right = 3000;<br />
EditBoxDimensions.bottom = 12;<br />
SearchStringEditBoxPtr->SetRect(&EditBoxDimensions);<br />
Resource defenition statement for the edit box:
<br />
EDITTEXT IDC_DLGS_SEARCHSTRING_STRINGTEXT, 83, 190, 200, 24, ES_MULTILINE | WS_HSCROLL<br />
I would appreciate any help. -John

Are you sure 12 is large enough for the height?

That solved the problem. I can type text into it now. It dosen't scroll anymore though. HMMhmmm....
|
|
|
|

Are you trying to keep all the entered text on one line? The default formatting rect should work
fine in that case (updating the horizontal scrollbar appropriately).
Great job, team. Head back to base for debriefing and cocktails.

|
|
|
|
Yes...I don't know why I always do things the hard way. Man I feel stupid. It works now though.
|
|
|
|
|
 By the way, I tried it just for the heck of it (I've never changed the formatting rect on
a regular edit before). If you enter enough text until you reach 3000 pixels width then the
scrollbar starts to work. I suppose, then, that the appropriate width for the rect when you have
a horizontal scrollbar is the width of the control. Kewl.
Cheers!

I've got a midi mapper program that take midi input and remapps it before it goes to output.. So I can plug in say, a keyboard, and select it as the midi input device.. no problem..
Then I have to use a program like MidiYoke or some Virtual Midi Device Driver to map the output device to another porgram.
I would like for the software to have it's own midi output port that I can simpily select within another program if you get my drift..
the closest thing I have come to is this
http://www.hurchalla.com/Maple_driver.html
The only problem with this is it's a permanent virtual midi device.. So when my program is shut down, the port is still there.. And the ports are turned on and off through registry key's which requires a restart in order to take effect.. There must be a better way to go about this..
Thanks is advance..

Hi ,
IIRC, there is a problem between VS and the SDK. For example, using Visual Studio 6.0 and the February 2005 SDK.
It finally made me move to Visual Studio .NET and Visual Studio 2005. I personally prefer VS 6.0.

check if the file log4cxx.dll is corrupt (i.e. has a size of 0 bytes) and/or try to download/install log4cxx.dll again.

Hi!
I'm porting a library from unix/posix to Win32, and i have some troubles with the memory mapped file access.
I use mmap to read pages from the file, but use the normal write API to write the pages.
On unix, it looks like this:
buffer=mmap(0, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, position);
On win32, it's a bit longer, as usual:
DWORD fsize=GetFileSize(fd, 0);
mmaph=CreateFileMapping(fd, 0, PAGE_READONLY, 0, fsize, 0);
buffer=MapViewOfFile(mmaph, PAGE_READWRITE, 0, (unsigned long)position, size);
My first problem is that CreateFileMapping is called whenever i read a page from the file. Is it an expensive operation? I just don't see a way to avoid this. If i cache the mmaph handle, and the file is resized because a page is appended, then this page is not covered by the file mapping...
The second problem: it just doesn't work. CreateFileMapping returns 0 and GetLastError is 5 (ACCESS_DENIED) when it's called for the very first time (fd is a valid file handle, and fsize is 4096).
The file handle was created with
CreateFile(filename, GENERIC_WRITE, 0, 0, CREATE_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL|FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED, 0);
Thanks for any help

I never used mapped files on Unix so I am unable to give you a comparison. If you wish to append data to a mapped file, try to specify a larger file size. In you code example you get the file size and use that, but it's perfectly safe to specify larger ( try to round it up to a 4k boundary for best performance ). Opening and closing the file is more expensive than mapping. I believe there is a flag to automatically grow the file for win2000+, but for the moment I just can't remember.
For your second problem, try using GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE, and try dropping the FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED.
|

According to the MSDN documentation, you can specify a larger size for the view, but then the file is resized:
"If an application specifies a size for the file mapping object that is larger than the size of the actual named file on disk, the file on disk is increased to match the specified size of the file mapping object."
And that's not what i want, because my library is a database library, and it depends on the user if he wants to insert a lot of data - or insert nothing. in the first case, my view has to "grow", in the second case, the file should stay small...
But anyway, this is the smaller problem of the two. I tried using GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE and dropped the FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED, but i still get error 5 (ACCESS_DENIED) when calling CreateFileMapping...

Hi all
i have created a simple console application calculating quotations for carpet cost. At the moment it ask user for name, lenght of room and do all calculation and produce output giving detail of the cost.
But now i want that details of previous customer quotation records which are held in a file named “quotes.txt” (a file of records qordered by unique uotation reference numbers). At the start of the program, the file will be loaded into an array of structures called “Quotes” in order that new quote records can be appended and the records can be viewed on screen. The updated file will be saved when the program exits.
So i am stucked here, please help me out. Please see the code below and guide me the right way to add the above functionality...
Thanks a lot

Before we can help you, we need to know exactly how the text file is structured. ie, is it 1 customer per line, are items seperated by anything? Perhaps if you show us an example of the first few customers.
Also, you say you want to load it into a struct, how is the struct defined? What iformation does it hold and in what format?
Also, it's necessary to post so much code in the forum. Always try to keep your snippets as small as possible and only show us the section you feel has a problem, unless asked otherwise.

The format of the text is as follows:-
Quote Number
Customer Surname & Initials
Cost of carpet
Delivery cost
Guarantee
So text file is like below:-
1000
Snape LC
3003.00
900.90
2
1001
Bond J
6936.00
0.00
4
Well i have not defined the struct as yet. I am lil confused about this part. If you could refer me any example or something similar then it would be gr8..
And yeh ill keep in mind about snippets...
Thanks for replying

OK, now I see.
For this to work correctly, you must be certain that each customer is layed out the same. IE, if you have yet to create a cost, within the text file you should place 0 and not an empty line.
For the struct, I would do something like
struct CUSTOMER<br />
{<br />
DWORD QuoteNumber;<br />
CHAR Surname[56];<br />
CHAR Initials[2];<br />
DWORD CarpetCost;
DWORD DeliveryCost;<br />
SHORT Guarantee;
}
Now since the file is layed out with 5 lines per customer, I would create a function to read a single customer then call this in a loop until there are non remaining.
bool ReadCustomerDetails( FILE* hFile, CUSTOMER* pCustomer )
Open the file with fopen(), read each line with gets() then depending on the which line you read convert it to the datatype in the struct.
Have a go at coding that, need any help just say the word.
