Hi!!
Can anyone tell me what are *.MAK files?? I downloaded many VC++ shareware programs from MSDN and many other sites. Many of such, contains *.MAK files somtimes with *.dsw and sometime without *.dsw.
Please tell me about the philosophy of *.MAK file i.e what it is ?? How can we generate it?? Why is it so useful OR any any other information you like to give ??

*.MAK are plain text files that represents MakeFiles
It contains a list of compiler settings/Instruction
It used to be helpfull, but under windows u can get away without them
U can generate one by using the option Project->Export Makefile
We used to write these stuff, but the VC++ generate it easily
For more info text edit one

Microsoft supplies a tool called NMAKE[^]. NMAKE is an example of a 'make' tool.
Make tools use a text file that defines a set of rules and a set of dependencies. The rules define the actions required to build a program. For example, a make file may have a rule that defines how to convert a ".cpp" file to a ".obj" file (in other words, how to compile it). Similarly, it may have another rule for how to convert an ".obj" file to an ".exe" file (how to link it).
Dependencies are a list of files that depend on other files. As an example, a dependency may specify that main.obj depends on main.cpp. If main.obj doesn't exist, or is out of date with respect to main.cpp, will cause the tool to try and make it. The make tool will look for a rule on how to 'make' main.obj from main.cpp.
As others have noted, in today's world of IDE's, make files aren't used as often, since the IDE manages the build. Also, different compiler manufacturers will implement different syntax in their make files. Make files are useful though in handling build activities that the IDE doesn't handle. For example, building help files or distribution media can often be handled with a make tool.

Hi all,
I wrote a hook application to catch Alt-Tab keyboard pressing and starting task bar also. But I can not prevent these events from performing their tasks. I want to have my application interupt showing the task bar and switching to other windows.

Yeah!
I don't see why people don't search CodeProject before asking?
I mean, CP is full of MFC stuff and much is GUI stuff!
Cheers and mary christmas to you and everyone else!

As has been said, this site is full of examples of all that stuff. Plus one of our regulars worked on it, so maybe if you get stuck you should ask specific questions here.

Hello!
I'm taking a couple of functions from a windows program and putting them in to my console application (with mfc) but to call one function I need a pointer to the output device. In windows this pointer pointed to a list box, but since consoles don't have those I want to write to the basic output device (like cout does). I've got
ostream* Console = NULL;
Console = ???
I can't find out how to tell the pointer that it points to the console window. Is this possible?
The functions simply get the atached printers and display the text strings.
Obseve everything, remember more...

Check this,
BOOL bFlag = AllocConsole();
HANDLE hnd =GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
DWORD dw = GetLastError();
unsigned long i;
WriteConsole(hnd,"test", 4,&i , NULL);

No, it really alternates every pixel (diagonally) from white to light gray.

I want wait for 20 microseconds, How can I get this??

Count to 20 really fast ?
::SetTimer allows you to set a timer in 1,000ths of a second.

You can't wait 20 microseconds using standard Windows timer. Standard Windows API has resolution of 1 ms, and AFAIK in reality it is even less precise. Mutlimedia applications use so called multimedia timer, so if you have a look at DirectX SDK (sorry, I'm not an expert in it), you will find more.

You can measure short intervals using QueryPerformanceCounter and QueryPerformanceFrequency.
I doubt that there is anything you can do in application code to delay an exact 20 microsecond interval. What do you need this for?

Spinlock. You are writing a kernel mode device driver? If not, and you really need to do this in user-land, you should probably have a look at one of the many available realtime OS'es.
Please note, you'll get no friends from using spinlocks - tying up CPU resources for no other purpose than waiting is more like the MS-DOS era, where resources were not shared and the only (available) machines that had multitasking was the Amiga and Unices.

I want to have a dialog inside my CTabCtrl send a message to the main dialog. But how I do that? I have the dialog as an object under my tab class which is under my parent window. I'm using MFC and the parent class is a CWnd under CWinApp.

Hi,
I have a Dialog based application. Dialog is having CDateTimeCtrl as well as some other controls. I put the tab order for all controls so as to navigate through keyboard tab.
When I clicked on CDateTimeCtrl drop down arrow it shows me Month calendar, when I do selection of other date or cancels on calendar control, focus gets disappear (OnSetFocus() function gets called but the selection gets disappears that makes feel like the focus is not on the control) . Now if I press tab the focus goes to next subsequent control and when come back to the same CDateTimeCtrl control through tab, it doesn't get selected. (Here also the OnSetFocus() function gets called but the control doesn’t get highlighted it appears like deselected )
Can anybody of you tell me, how can I select the Date inside the CDateTimeCtrl?
I tried to handle CDateTimeCtrl's OnKillFocus() OnCloseup(), OnSetfocus() etc. but the highlighting of date is not possible. Is there any function available by which date (day/month/year) can be highlight?
Thanks in advance,
- Vijay![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
