i need to print out the results of a database query, a class derived directly from CView is the only suitable possible solution till now i had before classes derived from CRichEditView and CEditView buut i hhad a lot of disadvanteges and ristrictions with them.

Stick an edit control in the view, occupying all of the view. (Which is, for all intents and purposes, what CEditView does, so why not use it?)

Why? This restriction severly limits, if not eliminates altogether, your options.

I dont think, it is good to use CView instead of CEditView or CRichEditView.
If you can derive a class from CView then you have handle SetCaretPos, SetWindowText and all to get the text support as suggested by earlier posters.

1/ Your question isn't really about SDI - it would be equally true from MDI too.

2/ If you're not allowed to use a Richedit control, maybe just a simple CEDitView?

3/ If you can;'t use that... then how about:
Crystal Edit - syntax coloring text editor[^]

It's not trivial to use, but I've used it for an in-program script editor with syntax colouring in the past to good effect.

Good luck!

First off, you should use CScrollView, rather than CView.

Secondly, you need to either register a custom window class with a custom cursor and override the PreCreateWindow method (preferred), or handle WM_SETCURSOR messages and call SetCursor() with the proper cursor handle, previously loaded in your init code (will flicker).

onwards and upwards...

Hello,

i'm working on PC/SC smart card. i'm using microsoft's winscard.dll for smart card interaction. while sending a full 256 byte using SCardTransmit it is returning 0x0000000e (not enough memory). I tried to allocate memory by manually using malloc but still it's failing. Here is my code.

unsigned char photo_buff[21000];
div_t div_result;
char quo[2],rem[2];
photo_buff[0]=0xF5;
DWORD lReturn;
DWORD dwRecv;
DWORD last_block;
int size;
size=Convert_to_Hex((unsigned char *)photofinger_size_char,4);
photo_buff[1]=Hex_OP[0];
photo_buff[2]=Hex_OP[1];

last_block=(photofinger_size+3)/255;

memcpy(photo_buff+3,image,photofinger_size);
for(i=0;i<photofinger_size+3;i=i+255)
{
ZeroMemory(CmdBytes.bdata,sizeof(CmdBytes.bdata));
/*CmdBytes.bIns=0xD0;
CmdBytes.bCla=0x00;*/
send_buff_new[0]=0x00;
send_buff_new[1]=0xD0;
div_result=div(i,256);
itoa(div_result.quot,(char *)quo,16);

if(div_result.quot<16)
{
quo[1]=quo [0];
quo[0]=0x00;
}
Convert_to_Hex((unsigned char *)quo,2);
CmdBytes.bP1=Hex_OP[0];
itoa(div_result.rem,(char *)rem,16);
Convert_to_Hex((unsigned char *)rem,2);
CmdBytes.bP2=Hex_OP[0];
CmdBytes.bP3=0xFF;
memcpy(CmdBytes.bdata,photo_buff+i,255);
lReturn = SCardTransmit(hCardHandle,
SCARD_PCI_T0,
(PUCHAR)&CmdBytes,
256+5,
NULL,
pbRecv,
&dwRecv ); //lReturn returns 0x0000000e
}

return 1;

You're missing the terminating ; at the end of the class body. (plenty of nitpicks here - they'll point out that I missed this error).

Other than that, it's looking syntactically correct.

Problem with Visual studio 2008 feature pack's CMFCToolBar - not being displayed

Sternocera30-Aug-09 23:53

Hello,

I'm upgrading my MFC application to make use of some of the new user interface elements from the Visual studio 2008 feature pack. My first concern is upgrading my CToolBar to the pack's new CMFCToolBar, to use large icons, rollover buttons, etc.

I use much the same boilerplate code in CMainFrame::OnCreate() as ever:

if (CFrameWnd::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
	return -1;

// I've attempted to simplify the code to the greatest possible extent to isolate the problem:
	
// The this pointer points to CMainFrame class which extends the CFrameWnd class.
if (!m_wndToolBar.CreateEx (this, TBSTYLE_TRANSPARENT) ||
    !m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar (IDR_MAINFRAME))
{
    TRACE0("Failed to create toolbar\n");
    return -1;      // fail to create
}

However, no toolbar is visible when the application starts - it is simply omitted. Switching the class of m_wndToolBar from CMFCToolBar back to CToolBar once again makes the toolbar visible.

Why might the framework fail to display my CMFCToolBar? How can I fix the problem?

Regards,
Sternocera

this new feature pack stores the settings under the registry, so delete the workspace registry key under ur app key and try. alternatively in initinstance() u can call cleanState().

if this doesnt work then try creating a new sample toolbar and check if it works.

enjoy

Not as far as I know but you can easily draw it your self: simply draw your shadow first by selecting a gray brush and drawing your shape with a certain offset (x and y). Then draw your original shape.

The MFC Feature Pack for Visual C++ 2008 [^] provides CDrawingManager class [^]. If you are using VS 2008 and MFC Feature Pack you can use DrawShadow method of CDrawingManager [^].

I've gave the links in my previous post, but i will paste them again:

1) CDrawingManager class -> here[^]
2) CDrawingManager::DrawShadow method -> here[^]

But remember that this class is a part of MFC Feature Pack for Visual C++ 2008. It will draw only rectangular shadows. If you are not using the MFC Feture Pack, you can download it from here[^].

Alternatively you can use CExtWndShadow class from this[^] article to draw rectangular shadows.

Both classes draw nice shadows, try them. Smile | :)
