Hello

I need to build a C++ MFC application which would consume a C# webservice, could anybody provide some references for the same. I have found an article in CP which says we need SOAP toolkit for the same, is that the only option or do we have any other alternative.

Thanx

If the C# webservice is SOAP, then it's easiest to use a SOAP toolkit (for example, gSOAP[^]).

I think you can:

a. Use precompiled header file, put all include files that are used frequently but changed infrequently in it.

b. If possible, include header files in .cpp file, not .h file. For example, if you only use class pointer or reference in .h file, then you can declare this class in .h file, and #include its header file in cpp.

c. If possible, try to reduce dependence between files/classes.

More suggestions could be found on the internet Smile | :)

I am using CreateDirectory() method to create directory in some specified location.
It fails in vista os. I need to know what could be the problem.

Note: The user has adminstrative rights.

Where are you trying to create the directory, if UAC is enabled and if you try to create in C: or on locations on the flash drive CreateDirectory could fail, in such a case your application has to run with admin rights

How to use transparency with GDI+?

Hi all,

I'm switching from GDI to GDI+. With GDI, I was able to make the background color transparent using this tutorial.
http://winprog.org/tutorial/transparency.html[^]

I'm looking for a way to accomplish the same thing. I basically wanna turn the color black transparent in my bitmaps. Surely, there has to be a way to do that...

Re: How to use transparency with GDI+?

first thing:

if u have an image which is having transparent color then gdi+ automatically handles it

otherwise convert the pixel format to PixelFormat32BppARGB

secondly
the A part of ARGB holds the transparency value

change this value for the pixels to be transparent.

enjoy

I am using either map or vector to store the data. Now my data is in Struct. How do I store this data coming in...using vector or map....

Thanks!!

Vector:

#include <vector>

struct Whatever
{
   int x;
};

int Store(Whatever const& w, std::vector<Whatever>& vw)
{
  vw.push_back(w);
}

Map (presuming int as key):

#include <map>

struct Whatever
{
   int x;
};

int Store(int id, Whatever const& w, std::map<int, Whatever>& miw)
{
  miw.insert(std::make_pair(id, w));
}

Toolbar button bitmap missing

22-Jul-09 13:16

Hi

I designed a Toolbar class which is derived from CToolBar. The "AddButton" can not load bitmap for the buttons.

bool CMyToolbar::AddButton(int nIndex, UINT Cmd, UINT BitmapResId)
{
    TBBUTTON tb;
    // Command associated with toolbar button
    tb.idCommand = Cmd;
    // Setting button state
    tb.fsState = TBSTATE_ENABLED;
    // Setting button style
    tb.fsStyle = TBSTYLE_BUTTON;
    tb.dwData = 0;
    tb.iString = NULL;
    GetToolBarCtrl().InsertButton (nIndex, &tb);
    GetToolBarCtrl().LoadImages(BitmapResId, AfxGetInstanceHandle());

    return true;
}

Can you help to locate the BUG?

Best regards,

As the other one suggested, using the wizard is a good start.

I suggest you use google to find a good beginner's tutorial; or use your local public library (or book store) to find a beginner MFC book.

In Visual Studio 2005:

Click File->New->Project

In the wizard under the visual C++ label you should have "MFC", then on the right side select the most suitable project type you need.

When the wizard is finished hit F5 to compile and run your the test application Visual Studio generated for you. There should be buttons and sample text i believe.

you asked before, and got several answers which seemed to be good starting points. I personally defended you from some of those who despaired at your original post. we should be helpful to those trying to learn, I felt.

but you didn't reply to those answers and have just posted essentially the same question again.

So - did you not bother to read those answers? did you not understand them?

If you don't even TRY to help yourself, you're going to find it pretty hard to get help from anyone - and I think you have already outstayed your welcome on CP
