Hi guys!
I'm a beginner and I just want to know how to change the background color of a MDI (without doc/view)app. There's a lot of exemples out there, but they are for dialog based app.
Also, I have some other problems. I'm not able to change the icon and title of my child windows.
I tried:
BOOL OpenGL_ContextMFC::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
// TODO: Modify the Window class or styles here by modifying the CREATESTRUCT cs
if( !CMDIChildWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
return FALSE;
cs.lpszName = "My child window name";//change my name here
cs.cx = 500;
cs.cy = 500;
cs.dwExStyle &= ~WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE;
cs.lpszClass = AfxRegisterWndClass(0);
return TRUE;
}
I can change the height and width of the windows but not the name.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hello everybody, i am trying to parse a simple CSV file (see a little file sample below) using the functions found in the book 'PROFESSIONAL MFC with VC++6' by M. Blaszczak, Wrox. I am working with VC7.
The functions work fine but unfortunately i can get only the first, say, N-1 values parsed instead of all the N wished ones.
for example in the sample below
i get parsed only:
label0 .. label5 as labels row (missing label6)
field0,f1,f2,f3,f4,f5 as first row of values (missing field f6)
0,10,20,30,40,50 as second row of values (missing 60)
and so on...
I mean only six values (with reference to the csv file sample), not all the seven values
any help/tip will be gratly appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Try my article, CDataFile[^] Just change the std::vector<<double> values="" to="" std::vector<cstring>="" and="" comment="" out="" the="" statistics="" stuff="" you'll="" be="" good="" go.=""

my message was truncated 
Anyway, change the double vector to CString and scrap the statistics stuff and you'll be good to go.

thank you very much Nitron!
i have just downloaded your excellent code and i'll give it a try as soon as possible
anyway i would be really interested in finding the reasons why the code above form Wrox book doesn't work as expected
I have tried to debug it and follow all the steps to figure out why the last field isn't parsed but so far i could'f find an answer so i would appreciate very much if anybody could point me towards the solution
thanks again!
best regards

Hello world...
I use a grabber with 4 cameras connected and I get images from this 4 cameras.
Next, I display all images in the same View...
My question is simple:
Is the Document OR the View which must acquire the images?
I suppose It's the Document... Because the Data is the image and the view only display the data...
When I press the start menu (to start the acquisition) is the Document or the View which must handle this message?
Thanks in advance...

Got any spare cameras you don't need? I'm taking donations.

My instinct tells me it's the Document that needs to handle this. But I imagine you also want to update the view as the acquisition is in progress. So as you're loading the images, call UpdateAllViews to let the views know of the new data that has come in.

You are right. From an architectural point of view its the Document that should get the images. The purpose of the view should be restricted to display and of course user interface.
Raphaël Kindt wrote:

This is potentially more interesting a question It really depends on the kind of system you are building. Ideally the document will have a fucntion that will tell it to go and acquire the images.
Now in one situation you can have the menu send its command to the view which will tell the document to load the images.
In another case you could have the menu send a message to the view which will load the document which already has the images loaded because some other process told it to do so, or because the document is told to load images every so often.
Another case, where there is no menu, when the document finds images the view turns on.
Not sure if I actually answered the second question

IMHO it's the MainFrame which should process the command. Knowing which document is currently active, it will be able to call for this object the document's method responsible for loading the data.

I wonder if there is an easy way to rename a class
including its source file in Visual Studio.
Has .NET Studio any support for this ?
Variable renaming would also be a fine thing.
Simply change the name in the class wizard and all
occurences of the variable are renamed.
This would make refactoring the code much easier when
I change my code in the late stage of a project to
clean up loose ends.

Edit->Find and Replace->Replace in Files
Check out the regular expression you pretty much can do anything old grep used to do.

Nope, you gotta do it the old fashioned way. Find/Replace.
My guess why DevStudio doesn't have this feature is that it may be difficult to do accurately every time. They'd rather avoid the risk of renaming something inappropriately.

Hello,
I would like to make something similar to the Start menu of 2000/XP: you can double click on any popup menu to open the item (therefore you can select items that are not leaves in your menu). Anyone has an idea how to do this?

Hi!
I'm doing this:
if(bRectangleFlag)
{
if (bAddTenHousesFlag = true)
{
CBrush myBrush;
myBrush.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(255,0,0));
HBRUSH hMyBrush = (HBRUSH)myBrush;
pDC->SelectObject(hMyBrush);
pDC->Rectangle(Anchor.x,Anchor.y,DrawTo.x,DrawTo.y);
pDoc->pMetaFileDC->SelectObject(hMyBrush);
pDoc->pMetaFileDC->Rectangle(Anchor.x,Anchor.y,DrawTo.x,DrawTo.y);
}
pDC->SelectStockObject(NULL_BRUSH);
pDC->Rectangle(Anchor.x,Anchor.y,DrawTo.x,DrawTo.y);
pDoc->pMetaFileDC->SelectStockObject(NULL_BRUSH);
pDoc->pMetaFileDC->Rectangle(Anchor.x,Anchor.y,DrawTo.x,DrawTo.y);
}
But the return from SelectObject is killing mu program!
Anyone know why?
Thanks,
quirky

pDC->SelectObject(&myBrush);
You don't need hMyBrush.
|
|
|
|
|
Many thanks, it now works !
quirky

Try something like this:
[...]
{
CBrush myBrush;
myBrush.CreateSolidBrush(RGB(255,0,0));
CBrush* pOldBrush pDC->SelectObject(&myBrush);
pDC->...
...
pDC->SelectObject(pOldBrush);
}
[...].This way, you are sure to select the brush out of the DC (by selecting in whatever has been there before) before the variable that contains it goes out of scope.
Hope this helps
