Didn't you just ask this around 90 minutes ago?
Since a control is a window, there is no distinction in setting the position of one or the other.

Ok, this is pretty specific question. What i am trying to do is to implement vista glass effect in my gtk+ windows app. But, i just can't  gtk+ code can be easily mixed with win32 APIs, so for example here is the code which draws a black rectangle on the specified area (the area where app border extends to client window):
PAINTSTRUCT ps;
RECT lpRect;
.....
case WM_PAINT:
{
HDC hdc = BeginPaint(hwnd, &ps);
GetClientRect(hwnd, &lpRect);
HBRUSH Brush=CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,0));
lpRect.bottom = 30;
FillRect(hdc, &lpRect, Brush);
EndPaint(hwnd, &ps);
}
This works fine, but only in case of pure win32 api based app, while in gtk+ for some reason it doesn't.
As code can be mixed i have tried it this way:
HWND hwnd = (HWND)gdk_win32_drawable_get_handle (window->window);
HDC hdc = GetDC(hwnd);
if(!hdc)MessageBox(0,"err getting hdc","err",0); // hdc is not null...
the rest of the code is the same actually. Result is negative.
Another way of getting HDC was:
hdc = gdk_win32_hdc_get (window->window, window->style->black_gc, mask);
But i simply got no idea how to use this function, because as 2nd parameter - there are tons of options and i dont know gtk that good.
So maybe you can help me or maybe you know some resource where i can get help on win32 gtk programming.
I know there are standard methods for doing this in wx(?), Qt, win32, mfc, .Net, etc, but gtk+ is the only options in this case.
Thanks in advance

GetWindowRect, please read carefully the documentation page.
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

Define window position...
If it's the window position relative to the screen top-left corner, use GetWindowRect
If it's the window position relative to its parent window's top-left corner, use GetClientRect
If it's for storing the window position so you can open it at the same place next time it's run, use GetWindowPlacement

Hello experts,
Developers sometimes provide ways for other programmers to interact with their application using API they've created.
Those API somehow "talk" with the original application they belong to.
So if application A was written by someone, application B (which was written by someone else) can do this "talking" with A using A's APIs.
I see no problem in developing a DLL which exposes functions.
But how do I go about making my DLL able to talk with my app when used by another external application?
Thanks in advance,
Shy.

Add interfaces direcly to your application, and expose them as COM objects. Registering the COM server will thereafter ensure that other applications can instantiate and talk to your application.

Your dll has to be found by your application, which means that it should either be in the system folder or in the same folder of your application. However, if you explicitely load your dll (by using LoadLibrary), you can place it anywhere you want and specify the path of the dll in the call to LoadLibrary.

I think you may do the same thing with implicit loaded DLLs if you specify the path of the dynamic libraries in the application mainifest (anyway I never made a test...).

It also works implicit if you specify the path.
I used it to reference to the debug or release version of some dll I wrote, depending on some project setting.

Hi all,

I guess the pronlem is in your code, but I can't see it...

What I'm doing wrong , because LPHOSTENT lpHostEnt is null :
SOCKET m_hSocket;
LPHOSTENT lpHostEnt;
CString sServer = "smtp.gmail.com";
lpHostEnt = gethostbyname(sServer);
if(lpHostEnt == NULL)AfxMessageBox("lpHostEnt is NULL");

We don't know, but the runtime knows! use WSAGetLastError and check the error code.
