I have created a list box using my own class derived from CListBox. I want to disapear it from the dialog if anyone is clicking outside that listbox. very similar to combobox.
Please help me to do that.. It will be fine if provide some sample code.
Thanks

Create a handler for WM_KILLFOCUS inside you're class and call ShowWindow(SW_HIDE) on the listbox handle.

That I hv done but its not closing.
Actually I am trying to create a dropdown Control. For that I created a button control derived from CButton and on click of that button control I am creating a listbox derived from CListBox. I am able to show and hide on the button click, even I am able to show and hide on listbox onselchange(), but I am not able to hide when I am clicking anywhere on the dialogbox.
is there any child and parent window problem ?
Thanks.

I'm guessing you're not getting the kill focus event.
That's probably because you're not setting focus to the list when shown.

Could you please tell me how and where to set the focus for the list box. Bcoz I m creatin List box on the click of button control.
|
|

|

You could try to call SetFocus after creating and showing the list box.

Hi I hv tried but its not working..
Here by I m sending my code , plz look into that..
// Here I am creating the button as well as ListBox. CTxDropDown is derived from CButton.
void CTxDropDown::CreateDropDown(CRect rect, CWnd *pWnd, UINT nID)
{
this->Create(L"", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | BS_PUSHBUTTON ,rect, pWnd, nID);
CRect m_rtBtn(rect);
m_rtLst.left = m_rtBtn.left + 2 ;
m_rtLst.top = m_rtBtn.top + 38 ;
m_rtLst.right = m_rtBtn.right - 2 ;
m_rtLst.bottom = m_rtBtn.bottom + 120 ;
m_lstCtrl.CreateListBox(m_rtLst , pWnd , this , nID);
m_lstCtrl.SetItemHeight(0, 25);
m_lstCtrl.AddString(L" ENGLISH");
m_lstCtrl.AddString(L" JAPANIES");
m_lstCtrl.AddString(L" FRENCH");
m_lstCtrl.AddString(L" GERMAN");
m_lstCtrl.ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
}
// On button click I m showing the and hiding the ListBox. m_lstCtrl is the object of my listbox class
void CTxDropDown::OnBnClicked()
{
// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here.
m_lstCtrl.SetFocus();
m_bShowListCtrl = !m_bShowListCtrl;
m_lstCtrl.ShowWindow(m_bShowListCtrl );
Invalidate();
}
// Here I am creating the ListBox.CTxListControl is derived froom CListBox.
void CTxListControl::CreateListBox(CRect rect,CWnd *pWnd,CWnd *pDropDownWnd ,UINT nID)
{
this->Create(WS_VISIBLE |WS_CHILD|WS_VSCROLL|LBS_NOTIFY| LBS_HASSTRINGS | WS_TABSTOP ,rect , pWnd , nID);
this->SetFocus();
m_pDropDownWnd = pDropDownWnd;
m_rtLst = rect ;
}
// Calling the KillFocus on ClistBox
void CTxListControl::OnLbnKillfocus()
{
// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
CListBox::ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
}
Plz look the code..
and Gv some idea where I m worng..

Did the KillFocus path have any advantages over SetCapture/ReleaseCature? (And 10 extra points for why.)
The capture way seems to be how comboboxes are implemented, since mouse clicks outside the dropped down list has no effect on other controls.
|

I might have to miss the extra points, I'm afraid - I mostly just took Chris' idea and went with it. In the end, pretty much all the code was mine, I just took the idea.
But SetCapture does have a disadvantage or two once you go from Win 3 to NT - it doesn't work across processes now - for good reason. KillFocus will work better if you click on another application.
Your point about not doing anything when you're just clicking away from the dropdown bit of a combox box is a good one, I have to say. I hadn't really noticed it before. I press escape, or click on the already selected item if I want to get rid of it. In the app I used the Generic Dropdown's in had a decent about of safe clickable space, so it wasn't an issue.

Have a look at my original reply: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/3528108/Re-list-box.aspx[^]
I gave you links to two good articles that should help you. It will take you a little while to read them, look at the code, try moving some of the code to your own program...
Good luck,
Iain.

Well, lucky for me, I'm not planning on upgrading anytime soon. 
Maybe the actual combobox implementation is a combination of WM_KILLFOCUS and Set/Release capture.
...and this[^] is for you.

Hi!
I've to build the following Query using C++.
SELECT * FROM ODI WHERE Team = "India" AND Name = "SomePlayerName"
Upto "AND" I've built the query. For "Name" I've to read from an array and assign the elements in order to the string Variable "query". The Query part I've completed is:
stringw query;
query = L"Select Name from ";
switch(tabSelected)
{
case 17:
query += L"Test";
break;
case 18:
query += L"ODI";
break;
case 19:
query += L"T20I";
break;
default:
query += L"Test";
}
query += L" WHERE Team = '";
query +=country.trim();
query +="' AND Name = '";
How to get the Name from the array and assign only one string at a time to query? Can any one help?
|
|
|
|
|
What is the array that you're talking about?
What string are you getting now and what is expected?
|
|
|
|
|
I've to fill the last part "Name" in the query. I've to get it like this:
query += m_pPlayerBtn[i]->getText();
I've to get the text that was set by me to the buttons: m_pPlayerBtn[i]. I've to get the text of one button at a time. getText() will return const wchar_t* and its signature is:
virtual const wchar_t* getText() const
{
return Text.c_str();
}
How to to append the text that getText() returns dynamically to this stringw variable "query"?
|
|
|
|
|
What is wrong with -
query += m_pPlayerBtn[i]->getText();
Are you getting any errors?
|
|
|
|
|
No Compiling Errors. Program crashes when I run this code:
void CGameMenuPlayerProfileState::readFile(stringw& country, int tabId)
{
stringw query;
query = L"Select Name from ";
switch(tabId)
{
case 17:
query += L"Test";
break;
case 18:
query += L"ODI";
break;
case 19:
query += L"T20I";
break;
default:
query += L"Test";
}
query += L" WHERE Team = '";
query +=country.trim();
query +="'";
for(int i = 0; i<m_pPlayerBtn.size();i++)
{
query += m_pPlayerBtn[i]->getText();
}
printf("%S",query);
}
Without the for loop it runs fine.
I've to get each players detail(I've to get the players from button's text) from database and display the details to a tab when a button(the corresponding player's details)is clicked.
|
|
|
|

Adding the name in the loop is the problem.
If you have 2 names in the array like "one" and "two", the string you're going to get will be -
"Select Name from Test WHERE Team = 'IN'onetwo"
|
|
|
|
|
Can you tell me any solution to achieve my task?
|
|
|
|
|
I still do not understand what you're trying to do.
The string without the loop is in itself a valid query -
"Select Name from Test WHERE Team = 'IN'"
Why then are you trying to append the button text?
I'm asking you again - What is the string that you're expecting to create?
|
|
|
|
|
SELECT * FROM ODI WHERE Team = "India" AND Name = "SachinRameshTendulkar"like this one I've to built.
Upto AND I've built. The remaining part "Name" I've to get from 11 button's Text(I"ve created buttons using array).
