Jhaga,
Thank you for the reply, I think AfxInitRichEdit is only is used when programming MFC, at least that is what the MSDN documentation seemed to say. Do I need to include a particular library, header? Is there an equivalent in 'c'. I tried search through google...can find much on programming richedit in c.
Regards,
SAK

How do you know if a combination of a path and filename is valid ?
I don't want to know if it is an actual existing file but only if it's valid (does not contain any invalid caracters). Also, I do not want to create a file on the disk to know if I'll receive an invalid filename error.
So, how can I know if a path + filename combination has a valid syntax ?
(example: "C:\folder name\file name.ext" is valid, "C:\folder name\file&?n!.ext" is invalid)
I'm using C++ only (no MFC, etc).
Thanks a lot !

One solution is to create a temporary file or path.

Unfortunately, I do not want to do that (like mentionnend in the original post) Its a possible solution but I would like to use only if everything else should fail

This article titled "Making Room for Long Filenames" in the location "Windows Base Services General Technical Articles " of the MSDN Library has a few general guidelines for long filenames, and they include:
- The application must not use the following characters in directory names or filenames, because they are reserved for Windows:
< > : " / \ |
- The application must not use reserved words, such as aux, con, and prn, as filenames or directory names.
The documentation forgot to mention that asterisk (*) and the question mark (?) are also invalid characters.

I might soon need to write an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) and wondered if there is anyone out there that has done this...
I've got the VS6 sample that implements a simple password request response protocol and that looks pretty straightforward but MSDN also mentions a further sample in the section entitled Server-Side Configuration User Interface that would show an ATL implementation of IEAPProviderConfig - does anyone know where I can get hold of this sample.
If there's anyone out there that's implemented an EAP dll then any tips that would be really appreciated.

im trying to use ImageMagick with MS Vision SDK.
there are a few problems that i have
[1] i am trying to run the demo project from Imagemagick 5.5.6
i have linked the following folders to the project:
C:\Projects\ImageMagick\Magick++\lib
C:\Projects\ImageMagick\Magick++
C:\Projects\ImageMagick\magick
but i still get the following error:
c:\projects\imagemagick\magick++\lib\magick++\include.h(13) : fatal
error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'magick/magick_config.h': No
such file or directory
any ideas??
[2] i need some advice about using both MS vision SDk and ImageMagick together. is there certain versions of Image Magick that will only work with MS vision SDk? and how would i link the image resize class from ImageMagick with a MS Vision Project?

Hi,
I have a dialog with a bitmap background. On my dialog I have many controls, some of them are radio buttons. My problem is that when I use radio buttons, my background is not updated. Unstead, I have white rectangles around my radio buttons.
So I would like that my radio buttons let me see my bitmap.
any ideas?
thanks
Everything's beautiful if you look at it long enough...

I have a C++ class as a part of a COM object which is as follows :
typedef struct {
int currentSize;
int currentIndex;
int requestedAddress;
short requestedType;
string requestFunction;
UINT8 *buffer ;
} AomMemoryParameters;
I add a type of this struct as a private member .
AomMemoryParameters currentParams;
Now in a private function
when I try to do
currentParams.currentIndex=0;
currentParams.currentSize=0;
I get a runtime error . I am unable to figure out what the error is

Post the IDL code for the structure.

I have a program that accesses a PCI card and reads data in memory on the card.
I am trying to convert the program so that the data that is in memory on the card can be displayed in various textfields and other widgets.
Should I do this with the MFC WIZZARD APP or should I choose another type of project?
Is there any project that allows me to choose from a list of widgets and place them where I want them?
My Boss wants me to use Borland and I have been using it, but the driver for the card is written in VC++. I'm sure as you know the 2 don't work well together.
If I can come up with a good solution using VC++ then I won't have to mess with Borland again.
Thanks for the help,
sj

a) Your expectations for MFC are a bit high. You'd be better of with C#, or Borland C++ if you know it already.
If "driver" means the OS driver, it really doesn't matter which language it's written in. You might need to do some adjustments to the code that does access the device, but basically, it should port reasonably between Borland and VC.
You can create a dialog based MFC application (using the MFC app wizard), which probably gets closest to your expectations. However, as much as MS touted it, MFC is no real RAD tool, and you're up for some serious learning.

Sounds like you are familuar with VC++ and Borland. I know borland fairly well and already have the GUI layed out. And the *.lib file converted to BC++B format. I just can't seem to get it to connect with the card. That is where I assume it has to do with the dll file that links to the card.
Would using the WTL be eaisier creating a widget type GUI?
At least with VC++ I have code project for some help.
I can't seem to find a decent Borland Builder forum anywhere. I have been using their news group but it takes about 24 hours to get a reply.
Does anyone know of a good Borland Builder forum?
All of your help is greatly appreciated.

I don't have much experience with the late borland, However, I have *lots* of frustrating experience with MFC, and I know that a tool you know is always easier than one you don't.
WTL could be easier if you're used to raw Win32 programming, because WTL is fairly transparent (compared to the often smoke and mirrors MFC). However, WTL is far from RAD either (I assume you don't have much Windows experience beyond OWL just because you want to "place widgets". Placing them is easy, wiring them is not)
Try to get some documentation on the DLL. Might just be some declarations / function import stuff.
Your Borland does 32bit windows, right? (The last borland I touched was Win16...)

You are right, I don't have too much experience with windows. I would much rather place wigets than wire them in.
I am going to keep pounding at this connection problem until it's figured out.
I was looking for a way out of the problem. I guess by other ways than figureing it out.
Maybe I'll eat a bananna.
I appreciate the help.
cheers,

You're welcome.
Neither Windows nor MFC are "complicated voodoo magic", however, I'm always wary if someone thinks that an unknown tool will magically solve the problems with known tools...

John,
Probably the best bet is to use the MFC Appwizard in VC++. You can create dialogs and apps by widgets (controls) where you want them and write the code to handle them. Then just port your code across.

Hi,
I want to add a tree view to my Frame window.
First I want to create a class that inherit from CTreeView,
So I write:
<br />
class CMyClass : public CTreeView<br />
{<br />
bla bla bla<br />
}<br />
I did it Using the Insert->New Class and so on, using the visual studio.
When I compile, I get an error that the base class (CTreeCtrl) is not recognized.......... How come ?
I have included stdafx.h in my application....

make sure
#include <afxcmn.h> is in your stdafx.h, and add
#include <afxcview.h> to it

Coooooooooollllllllllll !!!
It works !
Thanks.
BTW,
My application is dialog based, when I created a window based I did not have this problem, what is the reason ?

Hello all,
My project consists of about 50 files and on top of each file i declared:
#pragma warning(disable : 4786)
but I still get these long compiler warnings (17!).
Any ideas why?
|
|
|
|
|
Might be caused by an stdafx.h include - if you're using precompiled headers, basically everything above #include "stdafx.h" is ignored silently.
add the warning(disable) to the stdafx.h, before you include any "offending" headers.

ammm, I'm not sure I know what stdafx.h is. My guess is it has to do with MFC, however there is no useage of MFC in the project.
Thanks.

stdafx.h has nothing to do with MFC, it's the standard header file used for precompiled header support in VC (most project wizards create one automatically, and set up the project accordingly).
Look in your Files tab if a stdafx.h is part of your project. If so, put the #pragma above the first #include.
