How does the tea look like? Flaky or granules/powder? If it is flaky[^], then it would be better. Shall I share a few tips with you?
1. Make terribly hot water.
2. Wash up the tea pot with this water to make it hot.
3. Add two teaspoons of tea flakes into the tea pot (or the infuser - whatever you are using)
4. Pour the boiling water over the tea.
5. Let it brew for about 3 minutes. (trial and error to suit your taste)
6. Add milk to taste (My cup of tea consists 20% of milk and 80% of the freshly brewed tea).
7. Add refined white sugar (one teaspoon?)
8. Pour it into a tea cup.
9. The most important step - Give it to me. 
Remember that Darjeeling tea is supposed to be a connoisseur's tea and everyone may not like it at the very first cup. It is a very very mild tea, but has a very exotic muscatel flavor. Mmm...

I suppose it isn't (I haven't open the packaging yet, but I suppose there are cut leaves, you used an acronym defining them that I don't remember...) I'm going to send you a photo, this afternoon (If I remeber: do you know, drugz... ).

I'm not able to make it exceed the boiling temperature...

Fine.

Usually I don't use sugar (for instance I only add milk to espresso)
Anyway, if you think it tastes better with sugar I'll follow your suggestion.

Nope: you've the real one. This poor fake will make you unhappy.

The sugar thing - just do an experiment. Try it with sugar now and without tomorrow. Find which is good for you. For me, a tea spoon of sugar is good.
Are you talking about the CTC (Cut, rolled and curled?). That would look like a coarse powder (granules?). Darjeeling tea must be mostly flaky, in which case you can be relieved. Do email me a photo.

Yes (I think).

To get it flaky, here in Italy, I should cultivate tea myself, I suppose.

I think you'd be better off writing software.

Or maybe I should apply to this job [^] in order to taste the real thing.

Eventually I tried it (with milk, without sugar: tomorrow I'll try with). It was good, the taste being quite persistent, I like it.

Why in hell's name are you using strcat? This doesn't make any sense on so many levels. strcat is a low level function whereas std::string is a high level class that's intended to manage to low level details for you. Even is the code compiled, the intention is flawed anyway: you have no right to mess with a std::string's buffer. That's the reason why the buffer returned from the std::string::c_str method is const. Use code like this:
std::string path = dtCore::GetDeltaRootPath();
path += "/CharacterAnimation.exe";
system(path.c_str());
Why's exeroot used for? I can't see it being used in your code. Also note that the buffer returned from std::string::c_str is not valid if you modify the string.

Should be:
std::string s = "Hello World";
const char* psz = s.c_str();

Hi all,
I just wanted to know can we increase the size of static text(label we are using in dialog box) at runtime.... like i put text in my static text at run time using SetDlgItemText(), but sometimes when text is big it is not displayed i.e text is displayed according to the size of static text control....so what i want is that my control size should increase or decrease according to the text given...
Thanks in advance...

BOOL CMyDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
CDialog::OnInitDialog();
CString str;
CRect rect;
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC1)->GetWindowText(str);
int iLen = str.GetLength();
int iWidth = 8*iLen;//assume 8 pixel per character
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC1)->GetWindowRect(rect);
rect.right = iWidth;
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC1)->MoveWindow(rect);
return TRUE;
}

Hey thanks its increasing the size but one more problem is there, where ever i put label when i run my program its showing the text at upper left corner only.....
|
|
|
|
|
use
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC1)->GetWindowRect(rect);
ScreenToClient(&rect);
instead of
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC1)->GetClientRect(rect);

Use this method.
CClientDC dc( pWnd );
CFont * pOldFont = dc.SelectObject( pWnd->GetFont());
CSize txtSize = dc.GetTextExtent(m_szText);
dc.SelectObject( pOldFont);

Hi!
I've designed an application. In this application, if I click one button, an exe will be run. This works fine on my system. I've called the system command in the startHandler of the button. Here is the handler:
static bool startHandler(const CEGUI::EventArgs& e)
{
int result;
result = system("D:/Projectname/Release/CharacterAnimation.exe");
return true;
}I will give only the GUI exe and the exe that will be run on clicking the Start Button(CharacterAnimation.exe) to the user. It has to run the CharacterAnimation.exe on clicking the Start Button. It runs properly in my System(Development machine). At other systems, it shows the following error:
"Could not find the file";
What to do to run the exe on all systems?
