MFC or straight Win32?
Do you have a basic understanding of how Windows UI works
or do you just need code?

For change a text you can use of <code>SetWindowText</code> but I dont understand before showing the dialog box.

Very good.

The Title of the DialogBox and the Static as well can be written with SetWindowText, but the thing is that in the Static, it will be better if you use a member variable to have access to it.
In case you have problems with the static. You can always use a CEdit, disabling the rand (the square around text), making it flat and activating the write-protection. The aspect will be the same as the Static and you will have it easier.
A third possibility, is just not using the Static and just use pDC->TextOut (...). To avoid the blank square behind the letters you can use pDC->SetBkMode (TRANSPARENT);
Greetings.

No. A programmer with sufficient skill, time and effort can always disassemble your application and understand it. I've done it myself with a vendor's library for controlling their hardware, which had a race condition in - by decompiling their (native code) library I was able to understand the base API that had been used to control the hardware and bypass the buggy library.
The main thing that's difficult is keeping track of what information is stored where - particularly a problem with a large number of processor registers, where a given variable might at any time be stored in one or more registers and stack locations - and in reconstructing the control structure of the program. Native assembly languages rarely directly implement loops, switch statements or even if/else statements, instead only having controlled jumps. Sometimes you might get an explicit comparison statement but often the jump is controlled only through the flags set by some other operation, so you need to know exactly how the flags are manipulated by all the instructions.
The code I was working with was coded for Pocket PC using the ARM instruction set, which is a little easier due to conditional execution - some small if/else statements are implemented directly by conditioning the instructions - and that setting the condition flags is not automatic, you have to ask for it to be done, making conditional operations not using the CMP instruction easier to spot. x86 is a fair bit harder.
You may find Wikipedia's article on decompilers[^] interesting.

Maybe so, but even if it were in the body, it still makes no sense. What exactly are you asking?

Not exactly but you can decrement them.

m_list.InsertItem(i,NULL,i);
I wrote like this, though no text, it still reserve the line for text, so I can't align the image well, how to take off the reserved line for text?

GetThumbnailImage return Image,
but CImageList dones't support Image, but CBitmap.
How to list thumbnails in CListCtrl, I want to support as many formats as GDI+ supports, and because other codes are using GDI+, I'd not to use another library.

|
|
Bitmap bmp(...) // using a jpeg file here
Bitmap *pBmp=(Bitmap *)bmp.GetThumbnailImage // the cast works well
Is it safe?

Hi,
i am using Visual Studio 2005. The problem I have is when i select VC++ and MFC application, I am giving a name to the application as ExamSchedule.
In the Sourcefiles.. I am able to see ExamScheuledoc.cpp,ExamScheduleview.cpp and ExamSchedule.cpp. I am adding few controls on to the dialog and doubleclicking on the dialog. So a new popup asking for cpp and .h file for that dialog is coming.
Should I give a new class name or the browse ExamSchedule.cpp file name which is already created.
Also when I am giving new .cpp and .h file, the program is not executing.
Plz let me know how to proceed.
Thanks,
Sai

Hi everyone!
Few weeks ago I started to work on private CNC machine project. I’ve done a lot of design work using ProE. Now I am getting into control part. I am using Stepper Motors, which have to be controlled via Parallel Port.
My intent is to make software, which can send impulses on Parallel port pins with desired frequency. I can use Windows built-in timer but it is not enough accurate, I need more than 1000 Hz. For my machine I need something like 45000 Hz or more. I tried to use QueryPerformancecounter using while loop, but it use my CPU a lot. Is there any more accurate timer than 1 ms, which can call Event in windows, like Windows TTimer does? Is it possible to use QueryPerformance Timer or RDTSC, as Event Recalling functions? I am using Visual C++ 2005.
I look forward to your reply.
Best regards
Szymon

If your target platform is windows, then you can forget your idea: Windows is not a real-time operating system. Which means that you will never be able to have such an accuracy. You'll need to use a real-time operating system for that purpose.

Ok.
So what would you propose? What kind of system am I able to use?
What do you think about this kind of software (Mach2, Mach3, http://www.artsoftcontrols.com/artsoft/index/index.htm) or KCAM. They are installed on windows platform and intended to use to control Stepper Motors via Parallel Port. I can use them of course and I will as last chance but I would rather create something own.
I don't necessarily need Real Time control. I need any possibility to tact Parallel Port Pins with given frequency. Just every help is appreciate...
Thank you
Szymon

Google for Infra Recorder. I do not know if it is C++, but it works great.
