What have you tried? Why is it all fake? Have you read the documentation [^]?

Thanks for your replay Sir ...i tried means ...i build some sample application from codeproject but its not creating 16 bit bmp ....

this is my workout

actually this application do's Converting DCM 2 BMP ... i can able to convert 8 and 24 bit ..its creating perfectly ..using DCMTK package but 16 bit bmp its having problem ....

this is my code snippet

bool CxImageDCM::LoadDCM(const TCHAR* filename)
{  
	DcmFileFormat *dfile = new DcmFileFormat();
    OFCondition cond = dfile->loadFile(filename, EXS_Unknown,
		EGL_withoutGL,DCM_MaxReadLength,OFFalse);
	
	if (cond.bad()) {
		AfxMessageBox(cond.text());
    }
	
	E_TransferSyntax xfer = dfile->getDataset()->getOriginalXfer();
    DicomImage *di = new DicomImage(dfile, xfer, 
		CIF_AcrNemaCompatibility ,
		0, 1);
	
	if (di->getStatus() != EIS_Normal)
        AfxMessageBox(DicomImage::getString(di->getStatus()));
	di->writeBMP("D:\\Esm.bmp",8,0);
	return CxImage::Load("D:\\from_dicom.bmp",CXIMAGE_FORMAT_BMP);
	
	//return 0; // Code 
}

Please give me your valuable suggestion ....sir i am waiting for your replay ..

Thanks

Well, you may obtain a 16 bit bitmap from a 24 bit one: it's a quite lenghty coding task, but it isn't too difficult (starting point: CreateBitmap documentation [^]). If you ahve the option of using GDI+ then have a look at Bitmap::ConvertFormat method [^].

Maybe you can write a program to put bytes of random values to the unused space of the disk, for example, by creating a large file that fills the whole disk space. That will erase all deleted files, I believe.

Or before you delete the file write garbage in it...

That works as long as he erases the files he wants to delete (using his application.) If the program wants to erase all the deleted files and folders (they might be deleted by other programs) it still needs a way to get rid of all the traces of those files on the disk.

class foo sealed

use the 'sealed' keyword.

The ISO standard C++ has no such keyword.

okay.. Thanks for the information.
Visual studio compiler supports this keyword [^] and above all,if a person happens to use VS, "it works" without "any additional implications".

Making the c'tor private will certainly stop the class from being inherited but it will also force the person to provide 'other' way of creating the class object.

I think OP wanted to stop inheriting not instantiation. And my suggestion only helped him do what he wanted - nothing more, nothing less. Smile | :)

That's plainly wrong. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page you linked to, you will see this:

Requirements (Read as "Additional implications"):
Compiler option: /clr

Which means that it is not a C++ program! It is a C++/CLI program, that targets the .NET framework.

Of course yes. But so what? That's the only way as far as C++ (the real C++) is concerned.

Your suggestion was just wrong here. It is a correct answer if the query was posted on a managed c++ forum.

Now certainly, it's david vs big-fat-goliath(that's you) given my insufficient knowledge about managed or unmanaged code but man, if you do not scroll to the end of page, you will see this line
"sealed is also valid when compiling for native targets (without /clr)"

I have nothing more to say on this and whatever you say after that is correct but can you confirm this by using 'sealed' keyword in native unmanaged application on your system. I feel it's working on my PC. Smile | :)

Certainly no! I'm not trying to talk you down or something like that. I'm merely stating the facts that I can pull off my head. My idea of visiting the forums and discussing with people is to teach them some, and learn some from them back.

theCPkid wrote:

Probably MS has done something with *their* compiler to support this feature (read as added feature specific to their compiler, or an extension, because of which you won't be able to have the same code successfully compiled with another c++ compiler). It doesn't work just right on my machine (you're probably using some latest version of VS and that compiler support for understanding this keyword).

I only have 2003 installed here on this PC and it doesn't just work right. I will be able to derive classes from a class that has been declared 'sealed'. Smile | :)

theCPkid wrote:

Now, what does that mean? Something like:

class c1 sealed{}; class c2:public c1{};

gives a compiler error? If yes, then I'm almost certain that it becomes Microsoft C++ compiler (insert version) specific. Because it doesn't even work right with the previous versions! Not to mention sealed is NOT a C++ keyword.
