First, I don't think you need to save and restore the entire clipboard content. You should be able to save and restore only the data in the format you are using (CF_BITMAP, in this case).
Secondly, this entire idea isn't standard Windows behavior. The clipboard is manipulated using cut, copy, and paste under user direction. Clearing the clipboard and restoring previous contents doesn't sound like a good idea.

I empty clipboard before I paste something (if I don't empty clipboard my bitmap doesn't appear if there was something in clipboard before pasting), so I need to save the entire clipboard (or maybe I'm doing something wrong and emptying clipboard is needless).

I suppose you are right, but unfortunately I have to do this.

Is your bitmap supposed to be pasted into a separate program? Or will you just be moving it back and forth between your program?
Because how do you queue off the command to restore the clipboard to its original state? After you paste the bitmap? Because if you paste it into another program then I do not think that you will have any way of telling that someone else pasted your data.
Also, what happens if someone wants to paste more than one copy of your bitmap. Will this ever be a possibility? Because then they would have to go back to the original window and make another copy of it.
If the bitmap communication is only between apps that you have complete control over, I would suggest a memory mapped file or some other form of IPC to share the data between your app(s).
To answer your question, look into making your window a clipboard viewer. If it is in the viewing chain, it may be easier for you to extract and save all of the data. I beleive that you get some of these notifications when a clipboard format is used as well.
Good Luck

I think that I have explain what I'm doing at the moment. I have done Ms Office plugin and AFAIK the only way to make toolbar in Ms app with my own icons is to paste some bitmap into the clipboard and after this create new toolbar and copy bitmap from clipboard. The problem is that I want to preserve previous content of the clipboard. I'm pasting my bitmap by calling some function from my dll (this calling is inside Office macro), after that I create new toolbar, and then I want to restore clipboard content (of course by calling another dll function)

Hi! How to detect whether the network connection is available for a machine
running Win2K? What is the API i can use?
Thanks a lot!
|
|

This depends on what you are using the network connection for.
If you want to use WinSock to talk to a remote machine, you can use a ping function. For example, this article[^] provides a C++ class for doing pings.
If you need to see if a given network share is available, just try to do a CreateFile or OpenFile on it. You could also use the functions in the Windows shell[^] to enumerate the contents of the 'Network Neighborhood' to find out what shares are available to your machine.
In other words, the simple approach is to assume that the network connection is there, and attempt the operation you are interested in. If the operation fails when it otherwise should succeed, in all likelihood the network connection isn't available.

InternetGetConnectedState() will do it for you.

1)
I added WS_MAXIMIZE in PreCreateWindow to my main MFC Frame window.
Works fine, maximizes at start like it should.
However, it is not maximized when OnCreate is called(At least GetWindowRect() doesn't see it like that), but I need to position some other windows relative to it in the maximized state.
How can I accomplish this?
2) How can I make child windows start out maximized? I tried WS_MAXIMIZE and MDIMaximize() of the frame window, but nothing happens with either...

Use SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETWORKAREA,...) to find out the size of a maximized top-level window.

I've not done a lot of MDI programming, but I would assume you'll have to wait until the frame window has been created and put on the screen before you can maximize any MDI child windows. If you are using the MFC document/view stuff, you could have your view tell the frame to maximize the child in OnCreateClient().

Hmm... it seems to be off by a few pixels. What could be causing this? Anything special I need to know about it?

MDIMaximize doesn't seem to do anything no matter where I call it from

The workarea is the rectangle that a window is the desktop window - any appbars that may be present.
So if you have your Windows Taskbar viewable without autohide, that would account for your few pixels of discrepency. Otherwise, if that is not the case could you give some more details.

Yes, I have the taskbar on without autohide...
but I still don't really understand where those few missing pixels come from... could you explain it?

What is your current screen resolution, and what are the values that are returned from the call to SystemParametersInfo?

I've refied the problem a bit.
It returns 0, 0 and the other one is right too.
However, GetWindowRect() on a maximized window returns negative values(-4, -4 i belive) for the first corner
Why?

How can I get the active view(or document)?
I need a window to access the active document, but I didn't find any clues about doing it anywhere...

Try this:
CFrameWnd::GetActiveView()

Need Nice OSDesktop!
I wrote the follwing code to write a sample text everywhere of desktop so on clock. But I can not delete it by my program!!!
You can test this in a simple DialogBase program.
Please guid me
void CMyProgDlg::OnShowResolution() <br />
{<br />
CString sTempMsg;<br />
<br />
hWnd = GetDesktopWindow()->GetSafeHwnd();<br />
hdc = ::GetWindowDC( hWnd );<br />
nSDC = SaveDC( hdc );<br />
<br />
DEVMODE dd;<br />
ZeroMemory(&dd, sizeof(dd));<br />
dd.dmSize = sizeof(dd);<br />
EnumDisplaySettings( NULL, ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS, &dd);<br />
<br />
CFont oldFont,newFont;<br />
LOGFONT lfA;<br />
ZeroMemory( &lfA, sizeof( LOGFONT ) );<br />
lstrcpy( lfA.lfFaceName, "Comics Sans MS" );
int nSize = 10;<br />
<br />
lfA.lfWeight = FW_DEMIBOLD;<br />
lfA.lfHeight = 2 * nSize;<br />
lfA.lfWidth = 1 * nSize;<br />
newFont.CreateFontIndirect( &lfA );<br />
<br />
SelectObject( hdc, newFont );<br />
<br />
<br />
SetBkMode(hdc, TRANSPARENT);
SetBkColor( hdc, NULL );
COLORREF oldColor = SetTextColor(hdc, RGB(170,255,50) );
SetTextAlign( hdc, TA_RIGHT);<br />
<br />
TEXTMETRIC tm;<br />
GetTextMetrics( hdc, &tm );<br />
<br />
int x = dd.dmPelsWidth-5 , y=35;<br />
int FarNextLine = tm.tmHeight;<br />
<br />
sTempMsg.Format( "My Display Setting..." );<br />
TextOut( hdc, x, y, sTempMsg, strlen( sTempMsg ) );<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
y += 2*FarNextLine;<br />
sTempMsg.Format("Resolution : [%4d , %4d]",<br />
dd.dmPelsWidth, dd.dmPelsHeight );<br />
TextOut( hdc, x, y, sTempMsg, strlen( sTempMsg ) );<br />
<br />
y += FarNextLine;<br />
sTempMsg.Format("Color=%2dBits", dd.dmBitsPerPel );<br />
TextOut( hdc, x, y, sTempMsg, strlen( sTempMsg ) );<br />
<br />
y += FarNextLine;<br />
sTempMsg.Format("RefreshRate=%3d Hz", dd.dmDisplayFrequency );<br />
TextOut( hdc, x, y, sTempMsg, strlen( sTempMsg ) );<br />
<br />
SetTextColor(hdc, oldColor );<br />
<br />
}<br />

I wrote a new program and distributed it freely to my user.
I upgrade my program frequently. But I can't email it to my user frequently.
Therefore, please someone write me a simple code that how can my program has the following option: "Check for newer version every x day".

I'm pretty sure that noone is goint to write the program for you, but I'll bet that a lot of people is going to answar your questions if you ask "How can I do this", instead of "write it for me"...

Ok Anders  and other programmers,
"How can I do that ... ?", please.
That job must be hide until detect new version.
