Look at this (it is not specifically for MFC).
However if you do not need a high precision timer (like multimedia ones), you can use SetTimer of CWnd and handle the event fired overriding the OnTimer virtual function (or handle the WM_TIMER explicitly).
|
|
|
|
|
Although many people do suggest using the CTimer class See Here)[^]
The SetTimer function and related message and functions are not intended to be precise. Certainly you need to at least use more precise timers. Note that, except for special versions of Windows, Windows is not designed for real-time processing. Don't expect an application program to be able to respond reliably to timer events.
I would suggest you to read this[^] before you implement anything

Well, for a ten seconds timer, I suppose real-time system timing precision is not required.

BTW and IMO it was not a bad piece of information (to be voted down to 1), Sometimes you really need accurate timers and many a times you may not. Things look weird when you come to know that your timer is not getting fired every ten seconds and you want it to behave like that and that too after spending a lot of time in debugging.
After all it was only a piece of advise.

I agree: it is indeed a valuable piece of information. I simply added a common sense based observation.

hi,
i want to ask a simple question related to my code here. I am using a MessageBox to show the user the estimated time of the battery. The start value is an ULONG which i put into my function as float seconds. The cond param is the returnstring of my function.
Is the conversion (because the wsprintf function does not understand the %f param for formatting) right ? And what could i improve ?
Thanks !
void gettimestring(float seconds,wchar_t *input)
{
float minutes,hours;
hours = floorf(seconds/3600);
seconds -= hours*3600;
minutes = floorf(seconds/60);
seconds -= minutes*60;
char buf[20];
sprintf(buf,"%02.0f:%02.0f:%02.0f",hours,minutes,seconds);
wsprintf(input,L"%S",buf);
}
bye,
gabbana

Try Win32 API "MultiByteToWideChar"
For example
int nSize = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP,MB_PRECOMPOSED,buf,strlen(buf),input,sizeof(input));
input[nSize] = 0;
|
|
|
|
|
Okay thanks i will try it, i think i need first to look into the msdn what the params exactly mean.

Why are you using floats for such a thing?

The calcucaltion of the hours have decimal numbers. So I think i need floats at minimum or what do you mean exactly ?
|
|
|
|
|
I mean, for instance
7305 seconds = 2 hours, 1 minute, 42 seconds
for such a conversion floats are not needed:
int iTotSecs = 7305;
int iHours, iMins, iSecs;
iHours = iTotSecs / 3600;
iMins = (iTotSecs % 3600) / 60;
iSecs = iTotSecs % 60;

ohh yes that's right, but if i could remember the compiler put out some warnings and this was it i want to avoid.
|
|

To eliminate all the warnings a simple cast on the original variable is enough.

Instead of using char memory to variable buf, why don't you simply allocate the memory to wchar!

I wish to create an editor with a Docked Toolbar, which can be dragged to make it a Floating Toolbar. When user will drag the Floating Toolbar to the Top/Right/Bottom/Left border of the editor, it should be Docked to that border area of the editor.
This phenomenon is too common in various editors we use. How to create this effect in WIN32?? Is there any API or toolbar-property or any standard approch to enable a toolbar to provide this Docking-Floating Effect, sensing the mouse drag??
Can anyone help me out??

Many companies in the world have what is either a real or a virtual monopoly - 2 products that may spring to mind immediately as being subjects of this monopoly are mp3 players & pc operating systems.
Search Engines, however are reasonably abundant. You may have noticed already that even our beloved Code Project has one. If you type "Docking Toolbar win32" into CP's, you'll find two pages of them.
