its return 0. get error from GetLastError();

"The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."

not only plan, but also believe.

In my humble oppinion the easiest way to do that would be to download and install a PDF writer printer driver (e.g: CutePDF) and then print whatever you need to be put in a PDF with it. Of course if you don't know anything about printing then it's probably not that simple.

All you need to do is convert your drawing commands to PDF Postscript and write this to a file. Be prepared to commit yourself to this as it takes a few weeks to get started drawing primitives and a couple more for text output. Again a few more for graphics. All in all, a rock solid GDI+ to PDF Postscript creator can take several months to complete.

When you say, "my project is not getting attached to a process",...what does that mean exactly? Did your project actually compile correctly (without errors)? Are you executing the binary application? Or what?

Finally I got one solution ! But still some problem exists !!!

Hai!

From last two days I have been searching for code that displays an image from BYTE array, i posted this question multiple times, i even got responses but i was either not able to understand them or not able to use them, The reason is i am new to the IMAGES concept.

Finally i got i solution I was able to display image from byte array by importing CPictureCtrl class from :
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/CPictureControl.aspx

Finally i am having two problems :

Prob1: I first imported the CPictureCtrl Classes (.h &.cpp) into my Visual Studio 2005 Dialog based application and tried to display .bmp, .jpg, .jp2 images, by using code as explained in above URL,
.bmp and .jpg got displayed but not .jp2, Can you please explain me how to convert .jp2 image to either .jpg or .bmp or how to display .jp2 image using CPictureCtrl Class.

Prob2:My actual requirement is to do a dialog based application in which i have image display from byte array for a pocket PC Device(2003) in eMbedded VC++, The CPictureCtrl class uses GdiPlus.lib, i dowloaded GdiPlus.lib from net and pasted in
C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce420\POCKET PC 2003\Lib\Armv4
where other libraries exist, and included the name "GdiPlus.lib" in MyProject>Properties>Link>AdditionalLibraries>GdiPlus.lib (both for debug and release) still i get error message :
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'gdiplus.h': No such file or directory
Can u please suggest me the correct version of GdiPlus.lib that is supported in eVC++

Thanks!

Hi,
im using CRegKey::SetKeyValue() to add a value under a Registrykey..but there is no parameter in the function SetkeyValue to specify the type of the value which i want to create...ie REG_SZ,REG_DWORD etc... by default it is taking as REG_SZ...

Pls suggest me if there is any other function to create a value under registry of any type..ie (REG_SZ,REG_DWORD etc...)

If you look at CRegKey documentation [^], then you may find, for instance, SetBinaryValue, SetDWORDValue and so on.

I'm sure this will open a can of worms OMG | :OMG:

I'm a long time (20+years) C programmer, and I've decided that I've procrastinated enough--it's time to learn C++ for real (I've been mostly using C++ as a better C) Blush | :O

What are some good books for picking up C++? I know that the 'Dummies' books are out there, but I was wondering what else there may be. I've been using MS VC++ 6.0, but have recently upgraded to VS2008 so I could even jump a level and go straight to C#, but it seems that the majority of the programs here on CodeProject are C++.
