Hi all.
Need some help. I'm not long in MFC.
How to get size of dialog in template?
I'm deriving from CFormView and I need to know what is the size of dialog in template.
I can do this before or after window creation, but I don't know how in both times.
Thanks

You can use CDialogTemplate member functions GetSizeInDialogUnits and GetSizeInPixels.
Here is a note from MS on this class' parent file (afxpriv.h)...

in winxp, the directory name length limit is 244
in win98, the directory name length limit is 250
why isn't 255? why file name length limit is 255?
in FAT32 file system, FAT directory structure's DIR_Name cannot use 0x22, 0x2a, 0x2b,0x2c,0x2e,0x2f,0x3a,0x3b,0x3c,0x3d,0x3e,0x3f,0x5b,0x5c,0x5d,0x7c,

Hi,I finished Audio Capture and Receive with directsound.There is a netmeeting, I use a thread to receive a client data and decompress separately .
Now I use G729a.lib(got it from codeproject) to decompress,but It can not decompress multiply channels at the same time.
Could you send me Audio Compress code and instruction?
Thanks a lot.

In my program I selected Context Help and MFC gladly included the help mecahnism, but I have found it easily to created my HTML Help Files using HTML Help Workshop; which I have done. But I can't fiquire out how to get my program to forget the Wizzard's Help file and accept mine instead. I've seached MSDN and they just tell you how to create it in HTML Workshop, and if you have VS 6.0 They show how to include it in your program. But nothing on VS2008. Anybody know How?

Could you elaborate? Do you want to prevent multiple copies of the software on the same machine?

If you mean multiple installations in the same computer... why don't you use the registry?
If not... can you elaborate a bit more your scenario?

In the Oil Field business, it's a common practice for a company to take software and reproduce it(copy the CD) and then install it on one of their other office's computers. I want to prevent that! Or prevent it as much as possible.
I was thinking about having the Electronic "Signature" captured and written somewhere where the program knows of it and check for that "Signature" on startup/

Ok, I undersand, but... I don't know if it is going to be possible without access to the computer where the software is going to be installed. I mean, if you have access to the computer, then yes. You should be able to get a parameter with a tiny app and then include the checking of that parameter in your software, if the software is not installed in the computer you allow then it won't install. But if you are giving your software to a client without having access to their computers... how are you going to know in which computer is going to be installed in order to put the restriction in your software?
Even Microsoft must go through the windows original advantage through internet. If they didn't get how to manage about illegal distribution/copying...

parameter is in place in the software and email certification is required for installation. Hence my need to certify that the computer they are trying to install the program on has been pre-authorized by the program. If I'm sent an email for activation then I may be able to capture enough information about their system to verify that when a totally different computer is asking for activation then it won't be allowed. My question is, will emailling me provide me with enough information about their system.? I guess I could log the email address and not accept any other. Of course if the same company uses the same email address accross the country(and world) then I wouldn't be able to recognise it.

I don't know which parameters read or how to make it (I am not so skilled as other replying the post) but if I should have to do that I would make a little app to retrieve some data that are computer dependant (the others will help you better with that) in two different versions (only write and read-write capable), create a file and save the info you need in that file. You can then send them the "write-only" asking them to execute it in the target computer and to mail you back the report-file with the info you need before giving the unlocked version of the software.
To lock/unlock the software in a general way you can use an app-external file (like *.ini, *.dat or something like that) that you sent back with almost the same data asked before, but in other order of appearance (for more security). Then add a function at the start up of your application.
In Pseudo-Code it could be something like...
Open the Unlock file
Get saved ComputerInfo_1
Place it in Buffer_1
Get the computer local info in runtime
Save it in buffer_2
if Compare buffer_1 and buffer_2 is true
continue with the app // unlocked version
else
close app // locked version
I would make it like that, is the same principle as the MD5-encrypted password checking when you want to log in into a CISCO router. You first connect "locally" to the router and gives the admin pass and it is saved with MD5, then when you want to log in... you will be asked for pass another time, it will be encrypted as well and the router compares both encrypted results locally (the saved one and the one you are checking atm)
Regards.

Hi All!
I have to write my own app to make a living.
I am not an IT pro, or anything close to it.
I do have a 32 bit app that is absoultely better than anyone else's.
So I want to port my 32 bit app to 64 to stay ahead of the competition.
So I go out and shell out big bucks for that 64 bit compiler.
So I hear all this stuff about C# being the "language of the future".
So I believe it.
So I re-write the entire thing in C#.
Now I have a 64 bit dog that runs 40% slower than my 32 bit app.
Now I am pissed.
So I go to the C# forums for some advice. No one helps. I get chastised.
Now I have come to the conclusion that Bill Gates and all C# touts need their faces slapped.
