hi,
i have the below code..
TCHAR buffer[SIZEOFTCHAR];
::GetSystemDirectory(buffer,SIZEOFTCHAR);
CString csPath;
csPath+=_T("");
i want to copy value in buffer to csPath and i want to append other string to csPath.Please let me know...
|

No need to convert anything, you can simply assign your buffer in your CString object:
CString csPath = buffer;
If you need to concatenate your buffer at the end of the CString content, you can also do it like this:
CString csPath = "Something";
csPath += buffer;
BTW, what is SIZEOFTCHAR ? What is its value ? If it is the size of one character, then your string will only be able to contain 1 single character, so I guess this is not really what you want.

I make a guess:
This sample [^] uses 32767, that is 0x8000-1 (Well..., actually the two things are probably unrelated...)

CString is 16 bit under unicode but 8bit under non unicode version i guess.
but
so underunicode version direct conversion can be done as TCHAR is unsigned short.
where in non unicode version, WideCharToMultiByte() can be used

You have this code
HCURSOR hcur;
hcur = ::LoadCursorFromFile((LPCWSTR)"C:\\eglobe.ani");
::SetSystemCursor(hcur,OCR_NORMAL);
This bit - (LPCWSTR)"C:\\eglobe.ani" - will not work. The string literal is of type LPCSTR. That cannot be correctly converted to LPCWSTR with a simple cast. Instead, use this:
hcur = ::LoadCursorFromFile(_T("C:\\eglobe.ani"));
The _T macro either uses the string literal ("C:\\eglobe.ani") or the wide-char equivalent (L"C:\\eglobe.ani") as necessary

Now my code is as below:
But Still it enters else bock ie.,"Failed"
CString s("Sucess");
HCURSOR hcur;
hcur = ::LoadCursorFromFile(_T("C:\\eglobe.ani"));
if(hcur!=NULL)
{
::SetSystemCursor(hcur,OCR_NORMAL);
}
else
{
s="Failed";
}
|
|
|
|
|
This worked, but setting back the curso to normal did not work ie.,last statement
Plese help
CString s("Sucess");
HCURSOR hcur;
HCURSOR hCurBusy = ::LoadCursor(AfxGetInstanceHandle(), MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_ANICURSOR1));
HCURSOR hCurStandard = ::LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);
::SetSystemCursor(hCurBusy,OCR_NORMAL);
int i;
while(some length process)
{
}
::SetSystemCursor(hCurStandard,OCR_NORMAL);

Eeep - that's the WRONG way to change cursors.
With Windows, you either set the cursor in a window's class or respond to WM_SETCURSOR[^] messages to set the cursor. Your way is changing the cursor for the whole system - people will cuss you if you do that.

Can you please help me to understand how to respond to WM_SETCURSOR
|
|
|
|
|
OK...you need to add a WM_SETCURSOR message handler to the window where you want your special cursor to be shown. This handler should use SetCursor to change the cursor to the one you want and return TRUE.
The form of the message handler obviously depends on what Windows framework (if any you're using) - here's an example using MFC[^].

I want to handle the WM_SETCURSOR is the view class and
Set BeginWaitCursor(); and EndWaitCursor(); in a non MFC class with
handles the lengthy operation.
Is that ok, Please advice the best way

Should be - best way to see is to try it.
