I already tried to no avail. The solution indicated is to add a header like
but the third party tool does not support this. If the line is present the tool craps on me.
=> Saving the character "E9" (é) it becomes "E9 00" in BSTR (no problem) but MSXML writes "C3 A9" in the actual XML file.
Why is it doing this at all?
Then if I edit the XML to replace "C3 A9" for "E9" everything works!
How can I force MSXML to write "E9" (what I pass to it) instead of translating my "E9" into "C3 A9"?

So if I understand you correctly - if you add the processing instruction encoding='ISO-8859-1', MSXML outputs just E9 and not C3 A9, but the third party tool crashes? If that is the case, it is really the problem with the tool - MSXML's output is good.
Having said that, if you want to get output encoded as windows cp1252 or ISO-8859-1 (still not sure what you mean by 'extended ascii' - there are numerous encodings that extend ascii) without the processing instruction, one way I can think of is to write your XML document to a temp UTF-8 file and then convert that file from UTF-8 to Windows CP 1252 (or whatever encoding you really want) in a separate step. Just remember - this will actually be an invalid XML file (because it lacks the processing instruction), but this tool may be happy with it.

OK, so now I know that C3 A9 is the UTF-8 for my extended ascii. What I need to know is how to force MSXML to write extended ASCII, without writing the at the start of the page (if present the external tool crashes).

Dear all,
How can I be notified of date changes in vc? my program wants to know whether the clock is passed 00:00 or not. It should create a folder for each new day while it's running.
|
|
|
|
|
Can you explain what you want to do and which folder you want to create.
If you want to create folder with date e.g Folder_MM_DD_YY
Then why you need date change notification.
Everytime you need to create/access the folder you can take system date check if folder exists fro that date and create if it doesnt exist.
I hope you are getting my point.
Regards,
Sandip.

You can't that I know of. What you could do is call SetTimer() with a one-minute resolution. Each time the timer procedure is called, check the current time.

Hi,
Well, what I've once done in a situation like that goes at follows:-
At Startup, read the time and calculate the timespan untill 00:00:00 Next.
{time_t Now=time(NULL); long Delay=86400-(Now-(Now/86400)*86400));}
Then Set a timer for this Delay(*1000) (timers work in mS!).
When the Timer Fires, first set a New one for 86400 Seconds. Then do the bits you need to do, and kill the old timer.
Depending on your needs, there are thousands of methods to skin this particular cat. The problem branches various ways, depending on what you want to do retrospectively with days where the system was not running for several days, and also what must happen if the user changes the Clock or Timezone, What about DST. None of that is difficult to resolve, provided one is aware of these 'imponderable' actions.
Hope this is helpfull,
Regards

Hello,
I have develpoed an application on windows 2003sp1 which has to do with font. I have drawn text and set the font size as 36 and I have opend the same application in windos vita using cleartype enabled I could see the size of the font has reduced to 1 that is the font size has become 35.This is because in windows vista does font smoothing when cleartype is enabled due to which the font size reduces.
Here is the code
SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETFONTSMOOTHING, 0, &IsEnabled, 0);
templfQuality = td->lf.lfQuality;
if( IsEnabled && templfQuality != NONANTIALIASED_QUALITY ) {
td->lf.lfQuality = NONANTIALIASED_QUALITY;
}
I am checking this way but its not working properly
Regards

I want to get user input when a user clicks a item in list control. Is there any easier or better way to achieve this than to use an edit box, display it where user has clicked, then read the data from edit box and display it into list control?
Thanks.

I am sorry for being ambiguous.
I want to show 10 numbers to user and corresponsing to each number, I need a string from user.
For this, I am using a list control inside a dialog box and in first column, 1-10 numbers will be placed in 10 rows and in second column, user will enter text corresponding to each number.
Then I need to store all this data.
My problems are - If I use list control, then the sub items(second column) does not appear to editable.
Second, I am wondering whether xml is the right way to store this data or do I have other options?
I expect the number of items to grow.
Thanks for any inputs.

For in-place editing, Steen Krogsgaard has given you the idea.

Well, that totally depends on your choice. You can put it in the registry as well. If it is in an XML or inf file, it becomes easily portable (if such a thing is desired).

Instead of using a list control, use a list-view control with LVS_EDITLABELS style set. See MSDN List-view control or LVS_EDITLABELS for details.

I want to write C++ executable (console application), which will prompt the user to enter user name and password. The problem I am facing is when the user enter his/her password it is visible, so how to hide the password entry. Which means user can enter the password but it should not be displayed in the console.
Can any once help to achieve this? (That is hiding the password entry when it prompts for pw)
Thanks,
Nandu

In a console application, how are you obtaining the password from user? Use getch() to get the character and then do not display that character on screen or display '*' instead.
I did not exactly get your question.

Use getc() in a while loop to get the password characters and display an asterisk with cout for each character.

I have tried with the below code, but I am getting some junk value in password.
int i = 0;
char ch;
char password[20];
do
{
ch = getch();
cerr<<"*";
password[i++] = ch;
}
while(ch != '\r');

This works for me:
std::string str;
char c;
cout<<"Please enter password:";
while(true)
{
c = _getch();
if(c == 32 || c == 13 || c == 27)
break;
else
{
str += c;
std::cout<<"*";
}
}

Hi,
I am writing some character bytes in to File using
fprintf(fp,"%c",data);
if data is 26 then while reading it is read as -1,
if other than 26 it is able to read correctly.
What will be the problem?
Any idea?
