create file directly

josip cagalj17-Feb-09 2:04

17-Feb-09 2:04

In my app I need to write something in some place on PC.
In my code I call 'std::ofstream' but first I have to make sure that file exist.
If file doesn't exist I need to make an empty file.
Now my question is, after I find out that file doesn't exist can I create it only by specifying full path-name not worrying if some of sub folders exist. It needs to recreate the whole path.
To be more specific the location is 'C:\....\Aplication Data\..".
How to achieve this?
Thanks

Use SHCreateDirectory to create the entire path before creating the file.

You'll have to do that separately from the file create.

And even the functions you could use to create a directory (_mkdir or CreateDirectory) will only create a directory if its parent exists. So you're going to have to write something that recurses through a path, creating directories that don't exist in teh appropriate order.

SHCreateDirectory will create the entire path for you.

If your function is doing a lenghty operation, then it is normal that your GUI is frozen: your app is not able to process windows messages anymore (so that means not able to respond to events, not repainting itself, ...). You have to execute your function in a separate thread.
Here[^] is an excelent article that will help you understanding everything you need to know.

You have to create your thread in your dialog class, just before calling the function. You don't have to change your function at all. But I think things will be much clearer once you have read the full article.

Resizing frame

Hello everybody,

i got a strange problem.
If i resize a frame (within a CFormView) all works great.
Till i replace the View with another one (the frame keeps)
All Size-Events are correctly send to the new active view.
But if I size the frame fast, the view will (sometimes) not get the newest Size-Event.
Then, a ugly mistake like this is provoked :

http://img5.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fehleruu2.jpg[^]

I tested this view already as a initial view (without changing the view into the frame ) in this
case it works also without mistakes.
Only if I replace the initial view with another one, then the second view resizes not correctly.

Also i tested if the initial view is also resized (so that wrongly 2 views are sized) but i use a Hidden-Flag to step out the OnSize-Function (but the Size-Event is send anyway to it Frown | :(

)

Big thanks for help Smile | :)

Yes, it's a last possibility to "resolve" it,
but if the user holds down the Mouse-Key (for example to continue the sizing) it
seems pretty ugly D'Oh! | :doh:

But thanks for your answer Smile | :)

Hello all,
In my project I am creating a SDI application without Document/View architecture in MFC(Visaul C++ 2008).
Now in it, I am creating a child window using "Create()" method with window style "WS_CHILD" and i am calling this "Create()" method from "OnCreate()" of CMainFrame class.For this newly created child window I have created a new class.Now on this new child window I have added some controls like edit boxes, buttons and these controls are also created by "Create()" method and with "WS_CHILD" style.

Now my actual problem is that when I run the application, child window gets created and I can see the controls added on the child window also but I can not access these controls means these controls are disabled. Can anyone tell how to enable or access these controls on child window.

Thanks and Regards,

Abhijit

If you didn't get any responses a week ago, how do you expect to get any this week when you have provided no extra information (for example - what classes were used to create your child windows - how about posting some code to illustrate what you're doing!

Here is some code for the conversion:

        // You need a Graphics object for the conversion.
        // If you have CDC or Graphics object, use them.
        // If you don't such an objects below is a sample code for their creation
        CDC* pDC = CDC::FromHandle(::GetDC(NULL));
        Gdiplus::Graphics g(pDC->m_hDC);
       
        // Here is the GDI+ Font
        Gdiplus::Font gdipFont(L"Arial", (REAL)8);
 	
        // We will use a LOGFONT structure for the conversion
        LOGFONT lf;
        
        // Get the LOGFONT from the GDI+ Font
#ifdef _UNICODE
	gdipFont.GetLogFontW(&g, &lf);
#else
	gdipFont.GetLogFontA(&g, &lf);
#endif
	
        // Create the font object
	CFont font;
	font.CreateFontIndirect(&lf);

Hope this helps! Smile | :)

Hey everybody

I am REALLY stuck with this one! Sigh | :sigh:

I'll describe the problem with a scenario:
(1) Log to computer with user "A".
(2) start->run-> "\\somecomp\somedir\"
(3) user "A" has no access to this "\\somecomp\somedir\", thus windows pops up a window that allows user "A" to log-in to "\\somecomp\somedir\" as a different user.
(4) user "A" enters user/pass of "P" that has permission to the "\\somecomp\somedir\".

The question is:
How can I tell (from user "A"'s computer) that he uses user "P" to get to "\\somecomp\somedir\" ???? Confused | :confused:

Help... please... Smile | :)

Thanks!

You should include <fstream> also. And iostream.h is deprecated, you should include <iostream> instead (without the .h).
