I'd like to make a popup menu with the following code. However my assertion (ASSERT(m_Popup)) always fails. I've no idea what the problem could be. Thanks.

void CChildView::OnContextMenu(CWnd* pWnd, CPoint point)
{
	CMenu PopupMenu;
	PopupMenu.LoadMenu(IDR_P);	

	CMenu *m_Popup = PopupMenu.GetSubMenu(0);

	ASSERT(m_Popup);

	m_Popup->TrackPopupMenu(TPM_LEFTALIGN |TPM_RIGHTBUTTON, point.x, point.y, this);
	// TODO: Add your message handler code here
}

GetSubMenu() only returns a sub menu that already exists.

If you want to create a new one, you must call CreateSubMenu(), and then attach menu items to it with AppendMenu or InsertMenu.

Thaks for the answer. I created a menu (IDR_P), and I thought that loading it would do all the aforementioned, or what is the point in using creating Menu resources?
Of course if I can't get around it, i will use the method you suggested I just thought that using a resource would be simpler. Thanks again.

Does PopupMenu.LoadMenu(...) succeed? If so, is there a popup menu at index 0 in the IDR_P menu?

As a side note, m_Popup is not a good name for a local variable. The m_ prefix is normally used to indicate that a variable is a member variable (member of a class or struct).

Bit manipulation useing "Bit Field" in C++

Joseph Marzbani3-Jan-09 5:43

I have an array of BYTEs named aBytes. As you know, It looks some thing like this in the memory:

1000100110001010100011011011010110110101 ...
memory increase ---->

Now I want to separate 6-Bit chunks from the begin, as follow:

100010011000101010001101101101011011 ...
memory increase ---->

I used this code:

typedef unsigned __int32 BASE64
struct CHUNKS
{
        BASE64    First:6;
        BASE64    Second:6;
        BASE64    Third:6;
        BASE64    Fourth:6;
}*pChunk = NULL;

for (int iCountor = 0; iCountor < Size_Of_aBytes; iCountor++)
{
        pChunk = (CHUNKS*) (aBytes + iCountor);
        //From now on I expected to access my favorite values using <pChunk -> First>, ...
}

But each time, I get wrong values. Where is the problem? Confused | :confused:

Thank you masters!

Hi Jusef,

iCountor is counting 4-byte integers and you want the pChunk pointer to advance by 4 bytes, however aBytes is a char pointer, so adding iCountor to it is not correct. You should use one of these:
pChunk = (CHUNKS*) (aBytes + 4*iCountor);
pChunk = ((CHUNKS*)aBytes) + iCountor;

Smile | :)

What type is aBytes?

I'll presume it's a char or BYTE pointer. You want to increment it by sizeof (struct CHUNKS), as you want to manipulate items of that type. One wrinkle - making sure you don't increment off the end of the byte array and making sure that all of a CHUNK is in the array.

Anyway - try this:

for (int chunkCountor = 0; chunkCountor < Size_Of_aBytes/sizeof (struct CHUNKS); chunkCountor++)
{
        pChunk = ((CHUNKS*) (aBytes)) + chunkCountor;
        //From now on I expected to access my favorite values using <pchunk -=""> First>, ...
}</pchunk>

You're on the right track, but remember that a BYTE is 8 bits, so you can't just use aBytes + iCountor to increment the way you are.

One suggestion would be to decode three bytes (four values) at a time in your loop:

struct CHUNKS
{
	DWORD First:6;
	DWORD Second:6;
	DWORD Third:6;
	DWORD Fourth:6;
} *pChunk = NULL;

int iCountor = 0;

for (iCountor = 0; iCountor < Size_Of_aBytes; iCountor += 3)
{
	if ((iCountor + 3) <= Size_Of_aBytes)	// you have at least three bytes left, so get them all
	{
		pChunk = (CHUNKS*) (aBytes + iCountor);
		// now you can get pChunk->First, pChunk->Second, pChunk->Third, and pChunk->Fourth
		// this takes care of the first three bytes of aBytes, the next time through the loop
		// will get the next three bytes (4 values).
	}
	else
	{
			// when you get here, aBytes will only have one or two bytes of data left,
			// so you can only access one or two of the variables safely.
			
			// I'll leave this up to you.
	}
}

Note that this is UNTESTED code, but should give you what you're looking for.

Hope that helps.

Hai all,

We have around 7 dialog boxes in our application. And to navigate from one dialog box to the other dialog box we use doModal(). After navigating for some time between the dialog boxes we get a debug assertion failure and when checked through call stack all the error falls into doModal() and pretranslatemessage(). Please help us out..........

Thanks and Regards
