Hi,
My code tries to map a file with createFileMapping(). The Problem is
when the file is not present, this function fails with GetLastErr saying
"The Volume for a file has been externally altered". I am attaching code sample:
HANDLE hCreateFile = CreateFile( _T("E:\\size0.txt"),
GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE,
FILE_SHARE_READ,
NULL,
OPEN_ALWAYS ,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
NULL
);<br />
<br />
if( INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE == hCreateFile )<br />
{ err handling }<br />
HANDLE hFileMap = CreateFileMapping( hCreateFile,
NULL,
PAGE_READWRITE,
0,
0,
NULL
);<br />
<br />
if( NULL == hFileMap )
{ errHandling() }
How can I map a file with 0 Size? pls help

How much do u expect the shared memory size to be after mapping? 0 bytes?
|
|
|
|

Acttually I want to append data to this file. But in the function where I am opening map of this file, I do not know how many bytes to append?

From Jeffrey Richter's book ....
If you want to create the file-mapping object so that it reflects the current size of the file, you can pass 0 for both parameters. If you intend only to read from the file or to access the file without changing its size, pass 0 for both parameters. If you intend to append data to the file, you will want to choose a maximum file size that leaves you some breathing room. If the file on disk currently contains 0 bytes, you can't pass two zeros to CreateFileMapping's dwMaximumSizeHigh and dwMaximumSizeLow parameters. Doing so tells the system that you want a file-mapping object with 0 bytes of storage in it. This is an error and CreateFileMapping will return NULL.
Since you are using PAGE_READWRITE in CreateFileMapping....Your intension might be to write something in file whose size you have given to be 0 in CreateFileMapping.
I think you can map (using flag PAGE_READWRITE)file whose size is zero by specifying some number > 0 as dwMaximumSizeLow parameter of CreateFileMapping(). This number will be equal to no.of bytes that you want to write to file. The file will be expanded to that size if its size was initially zero.
bye.

thanks, I got the solution. I opened file with 1KB, if the file size is zero.

Hi All,
I am writing an application which try to show PNG file as a dialog background using GDI+
I have successfully using the PNG as background (using Graphics::DrawImage()), however, I found that the loaded PNG seems not apply the alpha channel information. What I should do?
Thanks!
(sorry for repeat posting if there is any)

Where in your code are you calling DrawImage()?
What is the background behind the image and how is it drawn?

I called it at OnEraseBackground()
I would like to have a transparent background (i.e. I set the desktop background to black/white, I hope the image boundary will be "blur" with the work of alpha bending).
I am not sure if what I do is right, however, with using the Graphics::SetCompositingMode(), it seems that the Graphics::DrawImage() method will not directly apply the alpha bending information? ( I use Bitmap::GetPixelFormat() to verify the input image is a PixelFormat32bppARGB type, which means it should include the alpha channel)

You shouldn't need much more than this...
Bitmap SrcBitmap(L"C:\\Test.png", FALSE);
...
Graphics DstGraphics(hdc);
DstGraphics.SetCompositingMode(CompositingModeSourceOver);
DstGraphics.DrawImage(&SrcBitmap, 0, 0, SrcBitmap.GetWidth(), SrcBitmap.GetHeight());
If something's not working I'd have to see a code sample to possibly help

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your reply ^^
err... what I wrote right now is exactly same as yours... (even the file name )
however, the outcome is just a dark background but not transparent...
Maybe I put at a wrong message call location?
I put the above code under OnEraseBackground()

Hmm...do you have a sample of a png image that isn't working that you can send me to test?

What is entercoding ?
Sorry, but you really need to explain things more clearly.
What do you want to do exactly ? You want to execute this code when you press the OK button ? If yes, then simply add an event handler for IDOK and paste your code inside.

Hi All,
I have made a worker thread in which i have defined a critical section using CCriticalSection class. I have started this worker thread inside a for loop.
Now my problem is when i want to stop my thread before completing the for loop(ie i want that all the threads already running should stop as well as no new thread should start). I am not getting the way to do this.
Can anybody help me in this.
Thanks in advance.

In general the way to do it is to use a flag to tell the thread to continue looping or not: the loop will check this flag and continue its work until it is set.
Then, from your main thread, you can set this flag in order to stop the thread.
But of course, this depends a lot of your current architecture.
|
|
|
|
|
Can you post the sample code snippet.
Upto my understanding, set a flag before start the thread. Based on the flag start or stop your threads in the for loop.

HI
How to create enter botton in mfc?
|
|
|
|
|
From the toolbar, pull a button onto your dialog.
Place it where you want it, change its caption o read 'Enter' etc.
Add a handler for that button.
What specifically is your problem?
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not money, I am become as a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

You mean befault button?
If so right on a button take properties->Style->tick the Deafult button.

Do you want to make it with code you can use of CreateWindow("Butotn")... if you want to make a button for enetr you can set id of button to IDOK.
