Hi
I've tried this:
ShellExecute(0, NULL, m_sSomeURL, NULL, NULL, SW_NORMAL);
It works, but when browser is already opened, my URL is loaded in existing window, instead of opening new window (or new instance) of default browser. Such behavour is quite annoying, so the question is how can I avoid this? Thanks in advance for any help.

This can be avoided by specifying the full path to the browser executable in the fourth parameter to ShellExecute( ). This means you would have to look up what is the default browser yourself. I don't have the code to do that at hand at the moment. If you want to force users to use Internet Explorer you could of course just use "iexplore.exe"

So I have to find out default browser executable somewhere in the registry(maybe someone can give me some hint?). Thanks for help.

I suppose you use IE. If I am right, you can change this behavior by settings checkbox in IE properties. ..mmm... something like as "use same window for shortcuts" or nearby

It has to be done using VC code, so your solution is not good in my situation, but of course thanks for trying to help.

Use the opennew DDE verb instead of open. ( 2nd parameter of ::ShellExecute() ).
|
|
|
|
|
I'm affraid that it does nothing:
ShellExecute(0, "opennew", m_sSomeURL, NULL, NULL, SW_NORMAL);
After executing such code nothing happens.
I tried to find (via search option) verb opennew in MSDN, but I haven't found anything connected with shellexecute

Open the windows explorer \ tools \ folder options \ file types. Then find the .HTML filetype, and click on Advanced. This should open the file association window with the list of known verbs for the .HTML extension. And there you should find open and opennew.
That's how things work underneath.
The assumption for the use of these verbs is you know the file extension of the url. If you don't, this won't work as expected.
You also have another solution : start a new default iexplore.exe instance (createprocess). Wait this process is running. Then do the ::ShellExecute. The document will open on the newly created process.

Now I see. Thanks

I want to tile the childwindow when I first run
my MDI app, does anyone have a code to show
how this is done, I know there is MDITile() and
TileWindows() but need a sample how its used.
|
|
|
|
|
You just send WM_MDITILE to the MDIClient (this is crucial, it's the MDIClient window that is to have the message, not the MDIFrame) with e.g. MDITILE_VERTICAL.
|
|
|
|
|
After so many years your hint to send the message to the client area (not the frame) was very helpful for me. Thanks!

Hi, everyone..hope this is the right forum.. could anyone hint me a good, beginner book about C++.Net? I've got a book on C++, but I need to use the IDE, its GUI facilities and so on.
Thanks a lot.

Tom Archer has written a book on managed C++, that could be what you're after. I don't know, I don't use MC++ and I learned how the IDE works by working through C# books. I did do some MFC last night in VC7, and I highly recommend NOT doing that. It's much easier in VC6, where you have the class wizard, etc.

Hi,
I added a button as a client control of a CListbox.
void CMyListBox::PreSubclassWindow()
{
CListBox::PreSubclassWindow();
m_pButton.Create(":o)",WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE,
CRect(0,0,20,20),(CWnd *) this, 1);
}
Unfortunately, when I scroll in the listbox (e.g pressing scrollbar) the client control will be scrolled too. How can I avoid this behaviour, can I override something? My button should be fixed in the upper corner.
Thanks for help.

You probably need to catch the WM_HSCROLL and WM_VSCROLL messages. There you would get the scroll position and call MoveWindow( ) for the button.

You mean, after the scrolling and moving the client control, I repositioned it again with MoveWindow?
Okay, I understand. So there is no possibility to intercept the movement of the button with a windows style or somthing? I have to catch the message and redo the unwanted movement, right?
Thanks.

I'm working on a new version of a BHO and I'm having trouble deciding on a sort of caching data structre and algorithm and was hoping someone had some suggestions.
Basically, this BHO can operate on a URL at any level, which is definable by the user. So, the user could choose to set flags (using a UI, of course) for http://www.domain.com/dir/subdir/page.html, http://www.domain.com/dir/subdir/, http://www.domain.com/dir/, http://www.domain.com/, or even on the entire domain.com (but I'm just concentrating on the fully-qualified URLs for now). Basically, I would need an algorithm to start with the full path and recurse backward till it finds a key that has flags set.
One thing I considered was to have a hashtable that uses the domain (domain.com) as the key and the value is a sorted array in descending order, such that I can enumerate the URLs and search for the first match (which should be the desired scope in this implementation).
Does anyone have any better ideas about how to accomplish this? I want it to be as fast as possible since speed in this project is critical. TIA

You could use an STL map, or other type of container that may fit. I would use the UrlCompare function to find any matches.

Hi,
I have been working on a suite of applications,
All of these applications communicate with an interface application via tcp/ip which then talks to a serial interface device.
I need the main applications to be separatly installable using MSI, in separate msi files, and each msi file needs to be able to install the interface tool, however I do not want to have multiple copies of the interface tool installed if multiple applications are installed.
Is it suitable to create a merge module to install the interface application, and then use that merge module in each of the main application installers? will this ensure only one copy of the interface is installed, and that the latest version is installed (if a newer version is built into the installer of another application).
Thanks...

Perhaps the Zip Library with
http://www.icsharpcode.net/ would give you some hints to start with. However as the domain name goes by, it is in C#.

Is that zlib ? zlib is a really well known library for zipping and unzipping, I'm sure google will tell you more.

Hi Nish,
I got ZipArchive compiled under VC7. If you want I can send you the source.
