Did you add the dwmapi.lib to your list of dependencies in project properties?

ahh silly me that would be the problem solved, um i did a pure win32 api window, and as it created it naturally put a client area
to work with, but when i use the dwmextendintoclientarea command it extends behind this area :S any way to stop that

I've never used that library, so I'm afraid I can't help further than I have already.

its alrigh, got it i originally had it set so it tried to proceed into the client area when it activated
stuck it in wm_paint and hey presto ![Big Grin | :-D](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/smiley_biggrin.gif)

Good morning,
I need help in designing a class in C++. For experimental purposes I started with something simple.
// Header File Planets.h Declares class Planets.
class Planets
{
public:
double Mercury;
private:
double weight;
};
//Implementation file Planets.cpp implements the member
//functions of Class Planets.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "Planets.h"
double Planets::Mercury
// Pre: Earth weight.
// Post: Earth weight times the gravitation constant
// of Mercury - 0.4155.
{
return wgh * 0.4155;
}
// MT_Planets.cpp : main project file.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include "Planets.h"
using namespace std;
int main()
{
double iWgh = 235.6;
double MyWgh;
MyWgh = Planets.Mercury(iWgh);
cout << "My weight on Mercury is: " << MyWgh << endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}
When I try to compile the project I get the following error:
Error 1 error C2063: 'Planets::Mercury' : not a function c:\Documents and Settings\Mark McCumber\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Visual C++\MT_Planets\MT_Planets\Planets.cpp 10
Can someone explain to me what I'm doing wrong?

Mercury - It is a function? Then you missed the ()

You MUST not do this. This is bad in several ways. Something like a getch(); or std::cin.get(); will do instead.

Rajesh,
Thank you for the reply, but I'm still getting a problem. I'm trying to reprogram my brain to use OOP instead of procedural programming.
The problem is simple in concept. Take a person's Earth weight and calcultate their weight on the other planets of our Solar system. The trick here is it has got to be done using classes and constructors.
For example: MyWgh = Planets.Mercury(235.5) would give me their weight on the planet Mercury. According to the instructions the default constructor should return the weight enter for Earth.
Can you help me grasp this concept?

Something similar to:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class Planet
{
private:
double _dFactor;
public:
Planet(double dFactor = 1.0) : _dFactor(dFactor) {}
double localWeight(double dWeightOnEarth)
{
return dWeightOnEarth * _dFactor;
}
};
void main()
{
Planet planetEarth, planetMercury(.38);
double dYourWeight = 235.6;
cout << "If your weight on Earth is " << planetEarth.localWeight(dYourWeight) << endl;
cout << "then weight on Mercury is " << planetMercury.localWeight(dYourWeight) << endl;
}
?

Thanks, this example helped me with my problem.

I'm glad of.
BTW did you notice .38 instead of 0.4155 ?

Yes I did, but I used 0.4155 because that was the number provided in the text. I bet the number you gave me was the most accurate one.

Well, actually your number is accurate, expressing the wrong physical quantity.

The idea of the assignment will be to teach you polymorphism. I'm assuming you'll want a base class of CPlanet, with more specialised inheriting classes which over-ride the member functions of CPlanet.
So, you would have CEarth, and CMercury both inheriting from CPlanet, and each overriding (eg) GetWeight (double dMass) , and GetDistanceFromSun () , and so on.
// slightly advanced bit here
As there is no need for the CPlanet class to even have an implementation of GetDistanceFromSun, you could even leave it as a pure virtual member function, forcing any inheriting classes to implement it.
// end of slighty advanced bit.
You would end up with:
CEarth earth;
CMercury mercury;
double weight;
weight = earth.GetWeight (100);
cout << "100 kg on earth is : " << weight << endl;
weight = mercury.GetWeight (100);
cout << "100 kg on mercury is : " << weight << endl;
and could even end up with:
CPlanet *planet = GetNthPlanet (5);
double weight;
weight = planet->GetWeight (100);
cout << "100 kg on 5th planet is : " << weight << endl;
delete planet;
CPlanet *GetNthPlanet (int n)
{
switch (n)
{
case 1: return new CMercury;
case 2: return new CVenus;
case 9:
if ( (rand() %100) < 10)
return CPluto;
else
return CPlanetoid;
}
return NULL;
}
I'm hesitant to write much more, as I don't want to spoonfeed you - if you don't struggle a bit, you don't learn.

Iain,
Thanks, but this gets away from my initial problem; defining the Planets class for use.

How to determine whether theme is Windows XP Style or Windows Classic Style

Thank you for your kind reply....

If you open "uxtheme.h", there are several functions in it that might be of your interest.

Which I suspect is just a nice wrapper around that registry key I mentioned. Did you get it to work?

hello experts;
how to get the IP address of system using MFC code.
How to use the GetSystemInfo(......); function, ![Frown | :(](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/smiley_frown.gif)

1/ There may be more than one IP address (in fact, all but guaranteed. eg, 127.0.0.1).
2/ Dig through the archives of this forum for the last two or three weeks. Your question was answered recently.

char *subKey = GetLocalMachineName();
int nSize1 = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, subKey, -1, NULL, 0);
LPWSTR wSubKey = new WCHAR[nSize1];
MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, subKey, -1, wSubKey, nSize1);
I have used above code. In above code function GetLocalMachineName() returns char * string which works correctly as i have debug it. what is the mistake in above code.. Please help me.
Thanks
