Have a look at CMenu::ModifyMenu
|

Thanks for quick reply,
I have seen that function. It runs fine but i am not able to see any change to the text of the menu item.
Is there any rule to use this function, If so then please let me know.
Let me know if you have any other solution.
Thanks and Regards,
Manish Patel.

Sample:
CMenu* pMenu = GetMenu();
pMenu->ModifyMenu( ID_FILE_SAVE, 0, ID_FILE_SAVE, "New Save" );

Sorry but i am not able to use it with System Tray popup menu.
Actually i have used this library to create a System Tray pop up menu.

So, Do you have any idea on this?

I am not familiar with that library. Anyway if you have the menu handle, then you can surely update it.
But I could find a BOOL SetMenuText(UINT uiCmd, LPCTSTR szText); in the documentation... Did you try that?

You can add a UI handler for the menu item
ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI
and do something like
void CYourClass::OnUpdateYourMenuItem(CCmdUI* pCmdUI)
{
pCmdUI->SetText("New Menu Text");
}

Wanted to say, thanks for posting this. I had been scratching my head trying to figure out how to do this and was making it a far more difficult chore than it needed to be. This was the answer, so simple that I hadn't even considered it. worked perfectly by the way.

hi to all,
need to pass a string to a void function that does not have a parameter, looks like that:
int CMyString::GetLength (void)const
{
}
in the main function, the code is follow
CMyString string1;
string1 = "Hello world!";
int nLen = string1.GetLength();// should give nLen = 11.
The class CMyString should work like the class String in this case.
Do not k now how to implement the function GetLength().
Any help will be appriciated. Thanks.

you don't know how to create a method in your own class ?
the class CMyString should hold a member variable that holds the buffer of some sort of the string.
just create a method that just do a strlen (if the buffer is a char* ) on the member variable.
something like :
class CMyString
{
//... some other stuff
char* m_internalBuffer;
int GetLength(){ return strlen(m_internalBuffer);};
}

You should (like CString, for instance does):
- define a
CMyString constructor accepting a const char * as argument. - overload the
CMyString assignment operator (=) to accept a const char * as argument. - both of the above methods should initialize
CMyString internal data member (a character buffer, for instance). - define a
GetLenght method returning the strlen of the internal character buffer.

Why would you want to use a function that returned an incorrect value?

Hello,
I want to use a C++ function in order to check if a filename exists. I have already tried to use _access as well as _stat, but these functions also return true if the filename given is a fooldername instead. So how can I distinguish if it's a really a file or only a folder?

See PathFileExists()[^]

There's also GetFileAttributes().

Creating a SDI application and deriving view class from CEditView would be better choice for this.
I hope it helps.

Open Visual Studio. Create a new SDI project. Derive the view from CEditView.

I want my control (CButton derived) has the same behaviour if CLICKED and DOUBLECLICKED.
Now, it is working well if CLICKED...I need to extend the functionality on DOUBLCLICK.
So, I simply added
ON_CONTROL_REFLECT_EX(BN_DOUBLECLICKED, CMyCButton::OnBnDblClicked)
In that function I want to do some similar to
BOOL CMyCButton::OnBnDblClicked(){
PostMessage(WM_COMMAND, MAKELONG(GetDlgCtrlID(), BN_CLICKED), (LPARAM) GetSafeHwnd());
return TRUE;
}
But in that way only my control receive the message BN_CLICKED, not the parent Dialog.
Please, what is the right way to send/post to the control (together to it's parent) that message?
