Thanks again :p
You mean with SetWindowLong()? How do you remove multiple styles? 
Thanks for your help!

Bit twiddling. For example, to remove the caption and border, use:
style &= ~(WS_BORDER | WS_CAPTION);

Do you still have to explicitly remove the WS_EX_APPWINDOW style?
Peace!

How about creating it as a child of a hidden window?

The child window will appear in the alt+tab window :p
Thanks anyway

You still have to add in the WS_POPUP style for that to work (IIRC).

Greetings,
I am very new to C++ and after many searches I am unable to figure out how to set the values of my array containing a character string.
class DataStruct
{
public:
char *mName;
char mInitial;
int mId;
int mAge;
int mDay;
DataStruct(char *Def_mName = "Paddy", char Def_mInitial = 'A' , int Def_mId = 1, int Def_mAge = 1, int Def_mDay = 1)
{
cout << endl << "Constructor Called ";
mName = new char [ strlen(Def_mName) + 1 ];
strcpy_s (mName, strlen(Def_mName) + 1, Def_mName);
mInitial = Def_mInitial;
mId = Def_mId;
mAge = Def_mAge;
mDay = Def_mDay;
}
When trying to use:
DataStruct data1[2] = { ("Andy",'A',1,20,30), ("Andy",'A',1,20,30 )};
I get the error:
error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'int' to 'DataStruct'
Clearly I am not understanding somthing correctly either about strings or pointers, I am trying not to use specific string lengths if possible in this scenario.
Please can someone tell me what command I should be using to create this array, also if possible I would like to dynamicaly create the array data1 using new if anyone would be kind enough to show that example too.
Kind regards,
BS

Two problems:
1) You're using the wrong brackets in your initializer list:
DataStruct data1[2] = { ("Andy",'A',1,20,30), ("Andy",'A',1,20,30 )};
should be
DataStruct data1[2] = { {"Andy",'A',1,20,30}, {"Andy",'A',1,20,30 }};
2) You can't use an initializer list like this unless you remove the constructor from the struct.
See Compiler Error C2552[^] for details.

Many thanks Mark,
It did indeed work as you suggested, I am presuming that the compiler error was raised because the character array was not a fixed length.
I am plagued with a habbit of throwing myself off the deep end, anyway, thanks again for your very fast response.

Actually it was the constructor...
From the docs:
"The following represent the reasons C2552 may fire when an aggregate initialization is attempted
on a type:
The type has one or more user-defined constructors."
where agregate is defined as:
"An aggregate type is an array, class, or structure type which:
Has no constructors
Has no nonpublic members
Has no base classes
Has no virtual functions "

If you never threw yourself off the deep end you would learn a lot less - keep diving.

You can keep the ctor if you initialize the array like this:
DataStruct data1[2] = { DataStruct("Andy",'A',1,20,30), DataStruct("Andy",'A',1,20,30) };

How to handle click event on icon which is placed on status bar?
Answers are appreciated.
|
|
|
|
|
You can respond to the message you indicated in NOTIFYICONDATA.uCallbackMessage when you
added the icon with Shell_NotifyIcon().
NOTIFYICONDATA.hWnd needs to be valid and NOTIFYICONDATA.uFlags needs to have the NIF_MESSAGE
flag as well.
Or were you referring to a status bar in an application window...

 Maybe in assumptions and/or jumping to conclusions, or not reading posts thoroughly

No prob.
Where in LA are you located?

North Orange County - Fullerton. You're in LA? For some reason I was under the impression you were in Europe...I figured you just never slept since you were around here the same hours as me.

Derive a new class from CStatusBar. Add WM_LBUTTONUP handler, and in this function loop through all panes of status bar -
- use GetStatusBarCtrl() to get ptr to control
- use CStatusBarCtrl::GetRect() to get rect of pane
- use rect.PtInRect() to see if click was in pane's rect
(I assume you mean app's status bar.)

|

Thank you Hans.
Yes its an application's status bar.
I'll try ur solution. Is there any other better solution?
