The first thing you need to do is learn how to ask a question with enough detail that someone can think about answering it. For example, what version of Visual Studio is the error from?

Secondly, you need to learn to use Google - the assertion that's failing is ASSERT(AfxGetThread() == NULL) (I have psychic debugging capability - don't ask). Googling[^] that leads to several pages indicating that a) you have more than one object derived from CWinApp, b) you're calling your application objects constructor multiple times, or c) you're using multiple MFC DLLs with inconsistent results.

Have you looked at line 380 of appcore.cpp to see what the assertion is?

How to get the selectedColumn in a CListCtrl.

i have a report style CListCtrl.
How do i retrieve the text from the individual cell.
Actually I have been able to get the selected row but seem to be having problems trying to get the row,column combination.

this gives me the row:
int nSelected = m_handselection.GetNextSelectedItem(x);

I have searched and might have either overlooked or could not find anything to give me the column.

GetItemText[^]

You need to google first, if you have "It's urgent please" mentioned in your question.

Yes.

CString GetItemText(
int nItem,
int nSubItem )

I can get the the nItem which is the row i have clicked.
How do I get the nSubItem?

Did you see the definition. Don't you spot the return value from the function.

Not. really. I did get the row, but can't get the column.

I used
nItem = m_myListCtrl.GetNextSelectedItem(pos);
but could not find anything simmilar to GetNextSelectedItem() to get the Column.

Like I said I don't know and could not find what to use to get the column.

Was asking for help only.

Thanks In advance.

nSubItem == column

FISH78623-Apr-09 22:13

23-Apr-09 22:13

thanks. I realized that but am having a hard time or have missed something to get the column.

I know I have the right row, since when i use the getItemtext with the nItem, and hadcoded "0", I get the first column values.

But once again I am having a difficult time to change that "0" to the selected column or clicked column cell.

Ah - you want the sub-item that the user clicked on!

The selection model for lists only includes selected rows, not columns. This means that what you need to do is handle the NM_CLICK notification[^] for the list view. This notification contains a pointer to an NMITEMACTIVATE structure[^] which contains details of where the click occurred, including the sub-item. You can then store that sub-item as the 'last-clicked sub-item'?

You have to maintain what column was clicked by the user. See handle mouse-events and keyboard-events:

Destructor of CView

Hello,

I have a project without Doc-View Architecture.I have ChildFrame derived from CMDICildWnd and ChildView1 derived from CView .When a new window is made it is made properly but when I want to close the window I get Debug Assertion failure.

When I debugged the program the problem is with the destructor of the ChildView.

I have another ChildView2 derived from CWnd but there is no problem in closing this window.

How should I go about rectifying the destructor ?

Hello,

Thanks for your answer.

But I wanted to ask you if creating a ChildView derived from CView must have created a problem since the basic project's view is derived from CWnd which works fine.

And why is it that the view's destructor causing a Debug Assertion ?

Form experimental point of view your code has (at least) a problem.

You probably won't know that, since you apparently are not using the debugger as suggested.

Like a debugger, I suppose. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

You should reach the offending line, try to understand why it is offending, and so on...
You may also get a better help from us if you give us more details (and the debugger usually help in finding such details).
Moreover 'Debug assertion failure' isn't much informative. Why it is asserting (i.e. what's asserted?)? . You're hiding information.

What do you mean exactly by start ? If you put the loop, your program will never end (well, that seems to be obvious). I don't really understand your question.
