Does anybody have any adice about learning MFC... I seem to have a hit a bit of a dead end lateley. Im using it lots but sometimes make stupid mistakes and cant realise how to do something. I understand the principles of most things, and quite a bit about messages etc but when I want to actually do something in code I always have so many problems working out the documentation etc an getting it to work. Ive been using the debugger more but 9 times out of 10 it drops us into the guts of MFC where its difficult to have a clue whats going on.... any advice appreciated!

Make sure you know a good amount of C++ first, so you can figure what the MFC source is doing ( I bury myself in it when I am extending a control, there's no other way ). Buy a good book - every MFC programmer should have the MFC Answer book by Eugene Kain, and download example code from here and play with it. No better way to learn than start with something that works and see what happens when you change/add stuff.
And don't be scared to ask if you get stuck.

Hi,
I have a function which returns a HRESULT. Not quite sure how they work, i know there is loads of constants and stuff for them. But I want to define a constant return value of my own. How do i go about this?
Cheers

An HRESULT is the only return permitted by COM, excepting a sleight of hand that I believe does not occur under C++, but VB and other languages for people easily confused. It is a complex structure, but in the first instance you can check using two macros, SUCCEDED() and FAILED, as in
HRESULT hr = pISomeINterface->SomeMethod();
if (FAILED(hr))
{
AfxMessageBox("You've stuffed it again !!!!");
return false;
}
Where did the function come from, and why do you want to change the return value ?

A completely useless anwser! It has nothing to do with the question asked.

This may be true, to the illiterate or truly stupid.
I'm still at a loss as to why we have pussies here who refuse to put their names to their posts, but I guess if you're going to insult people that would give you a reason to run and hide....

Your wit is to much for me, I leave in shame and disgrace.

If you want to make your own HRESULT you can use the MAKE_HRESULT macro.
Before you go playing with making your own you need to read some documentation on HRESULTS.
|
|
|
|
|
"Winerror.h" has the answers that you are looking for!
use MAKE_HRESULT macro. You may want to check if you
cannot convert your error by a predefined error type by
using the HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 macro.
Good luck!

Cheers, things are clearer now. I only want to flag to the user of my DCOM routine that the operation couldn't go ahead. So i just set the severity to information, to flag this. I kinda expected there would be a range where we could define our own. Doesn't look that simple though.
Thanks
Rich;)

How can I add hours ahead to a given date?
e.g., if the date time is now 16-July-2001 17:00:00 PM,
the expected date time is 16-July-2001 23:00:00 PM. (6 hours ahead)
The default DATE Arithmetic operators (-/+) in Visual C++ only apply to DAY.
How can I do so for HOUR?
STDMETHODIMP CMyLibrary::MyGetDate(DATE *MyGetDate)
{
SYSTEMTIME dDate;
GetLocalTime(&dDate);
DATE dTemp;
if (SystemTimeToVariantTime(&dDate, &dTemp) == 0 )
return Error("Conversion Error - MyGetDate");
/* This add one more DAY to a current date */
dTemp = dTemp + 1;
/* How can I add hours to a given date */
*MyGetDate = dTemp;
return S_OK;
}
|
|
|
|
|
if you want to add 2 hours you can use
dTemp += (1 / 24) * 2;
or for 5 hours
dTemp += (1 / 24) * 5;
Disclaimer: I have just written it, not tried to compile and run it, but it should work...

Thanks for your help, I have tried to test it,
but it still add DAYS instead of HOURS.
It seems the DATE + operator adds day with round-up figure:
dTemp = dTemp + 1.5 --> adds one day
dTemp = dTemp + 0.5 --> adds NONE
|
|
|
|
|
Strange, the DATE is an 8-byte floating-point number...
Maybe someone else knows something, I don't...
(Have never really used DATE...)

Just add a CTimespan variable:
CTime x;
CTimeSpan hour(0,1,0,0);
x += hour;
LP

Take a look at _AfxOleDateFromTm and _AfxTmFromOleDate in 'olevar.cpp'(located in the MFC source directory). These should help you out adding an hour to a DATE variable.

Hi,
I've tried to define a friend class for the first time in my life, but it didn't work out the way I wanted it to...
There's a class of some sort and I defined another class (a dialog) as friend of that class, let's say:
class SomeOldClass()
{
friend class dlg_ShowPrivates;
public:
private:
CList m_list;
}
class dlg_ShowPrivates()
{
void SetClass(SomeOldClass * pClass)
{m_pClass = pClass};
void DoSomethingWithList()
{
m_pClass->m_list.blablabla; // Do something with the class
}
protected:
SomeOldClass * m_pClass;
}
The only error I get is on the line where I try to access m_list from m_pClass. I get the old;
cannot access private member declared in class SomeOldClass
But how come? The dialog is a friend, so should be able to access the privates of SomeOldClass, right?

OK, I've found the cause of this problem.
Apparantly the friend-class definition is valid JUST for the section in front of which you define it!
So this definition:
class SomeOldClass()
{
friend class dlg_ShowPrivates;
public:
private:
CList m_list;
}
defines dlg_ShowPrivates as a friend of the next section in the definition which is a PUBLIC section (which makes it a pretty stupid line of code).
For the desired effect you should define it as follows:
class SomeOldClass()
{
public:
friend class dlg_ShowPrivates;
private:
CList m_list;
}

Your explanation of the problem is wrong.
Friendship grant access to every section of the
class, regardless of where the "friend" line is
laid down.
You better recheck your code to see if you've made
any other change than that
|
|
|
|
|
I've compiled your code (with some syntactic
errors cleared out) and it works fine.
Are you sure the piece of code you're trying to put
to work resembles what you've posted?
|
|
|
|
|
aparently it doesn't, because the example works with you...
here's a stripped out version of the REAL class that wanted te have a friend..
class Class_Profile : public Class_Object
{
// PUTTING THE FRIEND DECLARATION HERE IT DIDN'T WORK
public:
Class_Profile(Class_Main * pMain);
~Class_Profile();
/* interface */
public:
// lots of functions here
/* end of interface */
/* methods */
protected:
// lots of methods
private:
// more methods
/* attributes */
protected:
// a couple of members
// PUTTING THE FRIEND DECLARATION HERE IT WORKED
private:
// lots of members, one of which the one I wanted to acces:
Class_Aggregation<class_display> m_Display;
};

|

well ,it definitely beats me. I see no reason why
the code will work locating the friend declaration
in a different line.
It'd help if you could post two real (ie, compilable)
projects showing both behaviors.
good luck joaquín

Hmmm, I tried to make a sample project which didn't work (in the way I described), but I couldn't do it, because it just works...
Ridiculously enough I then tried to restore my own code in the original project, so that it would produce the error again, but now it just works! I'm absolutely sure I'm doing everything in the same way I did it before, but I just can't get it to not-work anymore...
I must have seem a weird anomaly here, but thankt for the remarks! I was making wrong assumptions there, which was wrong. I'm glad it works now the way it should!
