Since you're using C++ I suggest using streams.
#include <sstream>
{
CString strFloat("3.5");
istringstream is(strFloat);
float myFloat;
is >> myFloat;
}
This way you can catch errors easily.
Consider the following:
float af = atof("a");
float zerof = atof("0");
Both af and zerof will be 0, since on error atof() will return 0. Using streams you can check the stream status after conversion:
{
CString strFloat("3.5");
istringstream is(strFloat);
float myFloat;
is >> myFloat;
if (is.fail())
{
}
}

I am writing a MFC application which should run on different operating systems with different locales.
The application is in english and when running on english OS (like Windows 7) it works perfect.
However, when running on Chinese OS (Chinese Windows 7) I see that the english font is changed and it seems somewhat wider.
This wide font causes the text on my "Static Text" controls to be too big and the text is cut.
Is there a way to avoid this or must I go over all of my dialogs and set the size of the static text controls?
Regards,
Kobi.

I also have problem with localization. Chinese,Japanese, Korean and Thai Texts are displayed as Squares only in the Form Caption(Displayed perfect inside the Form). Also this problem occurs on running the application under Windows XP. There's no problem with Windows 7. What to do to localize the form caption for any Operating System?

Hi all,
I have a very basic question to ask.
when i run this line of code
char array[27] = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
AfxMessageBox(array+15);
it gives this output pqrstuvwxyz.
I am not getting why it is doing so.....
I expected it to print only p.
I know i am wrong but please anybody who can explain me this.....
|

AfxMessageBox() takes a pointer to string (terminated by '\0' character) as argument. Thus it shows the characters till the '\0' character, from the pointer you provided.
Initializing a character array with a string appends a '\0' character to the end by default.
To show 'p' only:
char msg[2];
msg[0] = *(array+15);
msg[1] = '\0';
AfxMessageBox(msg);
It is basic thing and hope it is clear now. 
|
|
|
|
|
AfxMessageBox takes a null terminated string as an in parameter. Since the termination happens only after the character z, it prints everything until then. If you want to print only the character p, the string should terminate after that character p.
Or you could extract the character of your interest ('p' in this case) into a temporary variable and use it.

and if my array is 500 bytes long and i have some value in my array, and then i write this line of code
unsigned long test;
test = *(unsigned short int *)(array+ 36);
what should happen with this??
|
|
|
|
|
that will probably show you a value combined with the ASCII of 2 chars (or how much the size of short data type), starting from array[36].
If short is of size 2 bytes, then the hex value in test (assuming long variable is of 4 byte size) can be:
0x 00 00 Ascii-of-array[37] Ascii-of-array[36].
The reverse order (asccii of 36th char after 37th) is assuming the Little Endian byte ordering. Can differ in other byte ordering schemes.
|
|
|
|
|
What you are doing is known as pointer arithmetics. You take the pointer to the array and add 15 times the size of the array elements. In your case, sizeof(char) is 1, so array+15 will be the address of the 16:th character. The result is still a pointer, which you send to the message box, which in turn will read it till it finds the terminating \0 character.

It looks like you're trying to do an Unicode build, but your code is written to compile only for ANSI builds. Use generic data types and functions (TCHAR instead of char, _tcscpy instead of strcpy, etc.,). And include string literals within the _T macro. This will help you do both Unicode and ANSI builds without having to change the code.

For an item of hardware I have written a Shared library to make it easy to use the API for this hardware. The library sets up data structures and handles, buffers etc for simple program use.
For example to arrange data to be transmitted I call routines like:-
UINT16 TransmitData( UINT unit, UINT addr, TXBUFFER * tx_buffer );
However in VS2008 I used C++ in a MFC dialog application, which all worked well.
Having moved to VS2010, I now see that the intellisence does not work with this product for C++.
So my thoughts were to use C# for the Windows forms and link in the Shared Library.
My question is do I need to general a DLL rather than a Shared Library so that I can use C++, C# and perhaps VB. Is this correct and what are the procedures to follow.
The libray is built using C. I include the API.lib and API.h along with the DLL that came with the API s/w environment.
Many thanks,
Andy

Hi,
I'm trying to create a deskband (windows xp). The class which implement
IDeskBand is CBand. I've created some brush in
the constructor of this class. And destroyed in destructor.
right click taskbar->toolbars-> select MyBand, now my deskband is visible.
then right click taskbar->toolbars->MyBand, now my deskband is gone.
But the gdi items are still in memory ? It seems
the destructor is not called.
If repeat show, hide deskband, the gdi object count increases with every time.
I've created it as specified in the following url.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc144099(v=vs.85).aspx
CBand::CBand()
{
MessageBox(0, "Construct", 0,0) ;
m_lRef = 1 ;
}
CBand::~CBand()
{
MessageBox(0, "Destruct", 0,0) ;
}
DWORD __stdcall CBand::AddRef()
{
return InterlockedIncrement(&m_lRef) ;
}
DWORD __stdcall CBand::Release()
{
if( InterlockedDecrement(&m_lRef) == 0 )
{
delete this ;
}
return m_lRef ;
}
HRESULT __stdcall CBand::QueryInterface( REFIID riid , void** ppvObj )
{
*ppvObj = NULL;
if(IsEqualIID(riid, IID_IUnknown))
{
*ppvObj = this;
}
.
.
.
.
if(*ppvObj)
{
(*(LPUNKNOWN*)ppvObj)->AddRef();
return S_OK;
}
return E_NOINTERFACE;
}
HRESULT __stdcall ShellFactory::CreateInstance(IUnknown* pUnknownOuter , const IID& iid , void** ppv )
{
if( pUnknownOuter != NULL )
{
return ResultFromScode( CLASS_E_NOAGGREGATION ) ;
}
if( IsEqualCLSID(m_clsid , CLSID_MyBand))
{
CBand * pObj = new CBand() ;
if( pObj == NULL )
{
return E_OUTOFMEMORY;
}
HRESULT hRes = pObj->QueryInterface( iid , ppv ) ;
if(FAILED(hRes) )
{
pObj->Release() ;
}
return hRes;
}
return S_FALSE ;
}
Thanks & Regards

I am trying to call a function in one class from another class and when I do,
I can not get or set data that is in any of the Edit Controls in my dialog
of the function that I am calling.
I have multiple columns of simuliar controls that I want to copy from one to the others.
So I call my copy function and try to copy from one column to the selected others. Slider Controls,
Check boxes, and Radio Buttons seem to work fine, but I can not get the Edit contols to work.
Here is an example of the code I have:
class Dialog1 : public CDialog
{
public:
void CallCopyFnc();
private:
Dialog2* myDlg2;
}
class Dialog2 : public CDialog
{
public:
void CopyDataFnc();
}
Dialog1::OnInitData()
{
myDlg2 = new Dialog2;
}
Dialog1::CalllCopyFnc()
{
myDlg2->CopyDataFnc();
}
Dialog2::CopyDataFnc()
{
CString str;
str.Format("0x%08X", number);
EditCtrl.SetDlgItemTextA(idEditCtrl, str);
}
Any help would be appreciated as to what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance!

All the dialogs and controls should have been initialized before when the program starts up. I just want to be able to access those same controls and be able to get/set the data from them. How is the best way to go about this?? If I add a button to the dialog that has the columns that I want to copy and call my function when the button is pressed - all the code seems to work OK. This would mean that I could put this button and code in each dialog and it would work - but I wanted to have a single point in a popup window that called the copy function for each dialog based on the active dialog. That is why I was trying call call the function from another class. Any help on how I can do this properly would be appreciated.

Your code does not show any controls (like CEdit) in the dialog header files. Do you create them dynamically? Where?
|
|
|
|
|
They were created with the toolbox and added into the dialog.
They look like this in Dialog2:
CEdit myEditCtrl[6];
in the properties, it is named idEditCtrl1-6.

Why would you think/assume that? Controls on a dialog do not get created until the parent/dialog gets created (i.e., OnInitDialog()).
jhoesche wrote: I just want to be able to access those same controls...
You should only do this from within the dialog itself.
jhoesche wrote: If I add a button to the dialog that has the columns...
A button having columns?

Do you have a class derived from CDialog that acts as the base class? If so, you could create a virtual function in that class that each derived class could implement. When called, the internals of that function would simply enumerate all child controls and populate an array of some sort (supplied by the parent) with their values.
[edit]
I just realized that this, if used with a modal dialog, will not work as I initially thought. It's possible that I do not fully understand your requirements, thus you'll need to scrap my suggestion.

I am new to VC++ and I am not sure if I am asking the corect question. There is not a base class besides CDialog - all the dialogs were created from Add Resource in the Resource View tab.
DavidCrow wrote: If so, you could create a virtual function in that class that each derived class

I am not sure that I know how to do this. Do I need to have the base class be the main dialog (Dialog1) and then derive all the other dialogs from the base?
DavidCrow wrote: A button having columns?
Not a button having columns - but a dialog that has rows and columns of Edit Controls where a each column is a group of controls. I need to copy from one column to the others to enable setting the value easily.

Use ClassWizard (Ctrl+W) to derive a class from CDialog. Then add the following to it:
class CBaseDialog : public CDialog
{
public:
virtual int ReadControls( CArray *pArray ) {}
};
Now in your other dialogs, derive them from CBaseDialog instead of CDialog. You'll have at least one change in the .H file and several in the .CPP file.
The virtual method means that the derived classes can choose to implement their own version of it or not. In your implementation of it, you'd likely want to enumerate each of the dialog's child controls, and put their values in the array parameter. Check out EnumChildWindows().
