Hello! I have been struggling for the whole day, and could not figure out the following problem:
I am testing my VC++6.0 MFC application, and already tested on several PCs, some of them runs OK, on some PCs the GUI fails to call function OnInitDialog, the dialog still get displayed, however I found out the exe actually did not run function OnInitDialog, so the initialized values assigned in this function were not applied.
PCs that work:
all PCs with VC++ installed.
1 PC that never had VC++ installed.
1 PC that had VC++ installed but removed before the test.
PCs that doesn't work
1 PC that had VC++ installed but removed before the test.
1 PC that never had VC++ installed.
I tried Create() and DoModal() to create the dialog, both fail on the failing PCs.
Please let me know if you have any clue. Thank you very much!

Sounds like a version mismatch between the mfc42.dll on some of the PCs and the version you're building against. Either link your program to the static library, or make sure your installer puts the right version in the right place.

Thanks for replying.
I copied the same version of MFC42.DLL to the ones that were not working, but it didn't help...

Assuming you put it in the right place on the target machines, you are encountering some other problem. Things to check:
- OnInitDialog() is actually not being called (try putting a message box at the start of it and confirm that it doesn't appear on the problem machines)
- The problem machines aren't running Win9x
- This is a normal dialog (not a file dialog / print dialog / other common dialog)

Shog,
1. OnInitDialog() is actually not being called (try putting a message box at the start of it and confirm that it doesn't appear on the problem machines)
It is true that OnInitDialog() is not called on the problem PCs, the MessageBox I put in the beginning of OnInitDialog()proves that
2. The problem machines aren't running Win9x
All the test machines are either W2K or WXP
3. This is a normal dialog (not a file dialog / print dialog / other common dialog)
This is a single page dialog that has some edit boxes and check boxes.
I have tried "use MFC in a Static Library" in the project Setting->General->Microsoft Foundation Classes. And also tried copy the mfc42.dll to the exe folder of the problem machine. I am not sure if that is the right way to do it as you mentioned.
Thanks

I'm afraid i'm out of ideas then. I suggest you try to narrow down the problem by producing a stand-alone program with a simple dialog, verifying that this works on the problem machines, and then gradually morphing the code towards that which doesn't work until you are able to break it. Then work backwards, eliminating superfluous code until you can determine the source of the problem (or post it here).

Write a program that generates a random sequence of 300 rolls using the hidden Markov model for the occasionally dishonest casino. Your program should output a sequence of 300 rolls and a sequence of 300 states (Fair or Loaded). The loaded has probability of 0.5 for a six and 0.1 for the numbers 1 to 5. Assume the casino dealer switches from a fair die to a loaded die with a probability of 0.05 and probability of switching back is 0.1. Assume the dealer starts with a fair die.

Anyone know of a good tutorial/code sample that demos how to make a proper popup window, something like you'd use to make your own menus, or drop-down for a combo-box like control? I'm having some issues trying to do this, and I'd like to find something that does it correctly that I can look at.

This one is about ComboBox[^] but why so secretive?

Yeah that was a bit vague I suppose. But I've got to be careful, in case they see me...
Anyhow it was problems related to activation - which window was getting highlighted (or not). Turns out I was forgetting to forward the msg along to the default wndproc. I think I have it sort of fixed now.

Assuming MFC...
Attempt #1: You can CreateEx() with WS_POPUP style but that will deactivate your app while the popup is up and your popup window will show up in the taskbar.
Attempt #2: You can give it an extended style of WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW to prevent the taskbar entry but that doesn't solve the deactivated application problem.
The solution is to avoid WS_POPUP and use CreateEx() with an extended style of WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW, style of WS_CHILD, and make the parent the desktop window.
There are other issues to contend with but that will get you a window that can extend beyond the window of your application.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the pointers! Yes that helped.

I have successfully used SetDIBitsToDevice to copy a bitmap to the current job's window on the screen; but I cannot find a function GetDIBitsFromDevice. Please how could I copy the whole of the user area (i.e. not the edging) of the current job's window onto a bitmap?

If you are using MFC, try something like:
CDC dc;
HDC hdc = ::GetDC(wnd->m_hWnd);
dc.Attach(hdc);
CDC memDC;
memDC.CreateCompatibleDC(&dc);
CRect r;
wnd->GetClientRect(&r);
CSize sz(r.Width(), r.Height());
CBitmap bm;
bm.CreateCompatibleBitmap(&dc, sz.cx, sz.cy);
CBitmap *oldbm = memDC.SelectObject(&bm);
memDC.BitBlt(0, 0, sz.cx, sz.cy, &dc, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);

Thanks; but I want to copy the screen into a bitmap specified by a BITMAPINFO and an array of bytes, using the plain old Windows API functions.
