Shouldn't C# questions be posted to the C# forum instead of the VC++ forum? You're bound to get more answers that way!

Is there any way to programatically set/unset fullscreen console mode?

hi..

this way is not exactly same yours however you can use.

//ID_VIEW_FULLSCREEN on menu<br />
<br />
void CMainFrame::OnViewFullscreen() <br />
{<br />
	if (m_fullscreen)<br />
	{<br />
		ModifyStyle(0,WS_CAPTION|WS_THICKFRAME);			<br />
		ShowWindow(SW_SHOWNORMAL);<br />
<br />
		ShowControlBar(&m_wndToolBar, TRUE, FALSE);<br />
		ShowControlBar(&m_wndStatusBar, TRUE, FALSE);<br />
	}<br />
	else<br />
	{<br />
		ModifyStyle(WS_CAPTION|WS_THICKFRAME,0);			<br />
		ShowWindow(SW_MAXIMIZE);<br />
<br />
		CFrameWnd* pChild = GetActiveFrame();<br />
		if (pChild)	pChild->ShowWindow(SW_MAXIMIZE);<br />
<br />
		ShowControlBar(&m_wndToolBar, FALSE, FALSE);<br />
		ShowControlBar(&m_wndStatusBar, FALSE, FALSE);<br />
	}<br />
	m_fullscreen = !m_fullscreen;<br />
}

hm.. I never did it, but perhaps by finding the window of the
console. and then sending "Alt+Enter" to it?!?

Use EnumWindows(), So you can find the ConsoleWindow. it has
the name of your app in the title.
and then send the "go full screen" magic "Alt+Enter" Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Functional but not very elegant - this sends a Ctrl+Enter to the console window:

<br />
#include <windows.h><br />
#include <conio.h><br />
<br />
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])<br />
{<br />
    keybd_event( VK_MENU, MapVirtualKey( VK_MENU, 0 ), 0, 0 );<br />
    keybd_event( VK_RETURN, MapVirtualKey( VK_RETURN, 0 ), 0, 0 );<br />
    keybd_event( VK_RETURN, MapVirtualKey( VK_RETURN, 0 ), KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0 );<br />
    keybd_event( VK_MENU, MapVirtualKey( VK_MENU, 0 ), KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0 );<br />
  <br />
<br />
  getch();<br />
  return 0;<br />
}

SAFEARRAY..

what is a SAFEARRAY?
I am having a hard time understanding the little documentation that I have found. I am interested in constructing one because of this function I have found...

<br />
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
//detect objects within the image<br />
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
int CFacedetectApp::RCobj_detectfaces(SAFEARRAY **bmp)<br />
{  <br />
  BYTE *bmp2;<br />
  int i;<br />
<br />
  SafeArrayLock(*bmp);<br />
<br />
  bmp2 = (BYTE *)(*bmp)->pvData;<br />
<br />
  for (i=0;i<width*height*3;i++) video_image[flip]->imageData[i] = bmp2[i];  <br />
<br />
  if (!trackingEnabled)<br />
    DetectFaces(video_image[flip]);<br />
    else<br />
	updateTracking();<br />
<br />
  flip = 1-flip;<br />
<br />
  SafeArrayUnlock(*bmp);<br />
<br />
  return(NoOfObjects);<br />
}<br />

The code is from....
http://www.fuzzgun.btinternet.co.uk/rodney/components.htm#FaceDetection[^]
Why is it so hard just to give a function a simple file name and let it do it's detection Unsure | :~

I like his .dlls because they are simplified but I am having trouble understanding them. any help would be great. thanks

It's sort of the VB/COM/DISPATCH array type. If you're in MFC, COleSafeArray can be used to manage SAFEARRAYs more easily.

CDC BitBlt problem

29-Jul-03 3:12

hello,
I have a big problem ... I have created a MFC app from wizard ... and added:
void CEditorView::OnInitialUpdate()
{
CScrollView::OnInitialUpdate();

CSize sizeTotal;
// TODO: calculate the total size of this view
sizeTotal.cx = widthMM;
sizeTotal.cy = heightMM;
SetScrollSizes(MM_LOMETRIC, sizeTotal);
}
so, my maping mode is MM_LOMETRIC ...
and in OnDraw ....

void CEditorView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC)
{
CEditorDoc* pDoc = GetDocument();
ASSERT_VALID(pDoc);
// TODO: add draw code for native data here

CDC bdc;
bdc.CreateCompatibleDC(pDC);
CBitmap cb;

cb.CreateCompatibleBitmap(pDC, 1000,1000);
bdc.SelectObject(cb);
bdc.SelectStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH);
bdc.PatBlt(0,0,1000, 1000, PATCOPY);
bdc.SelectStockObject(BLACK_BRUSH);
bdc.Rectangle(CRect(0, 0, 500, -500));

pDC->StretchBlt(0, 0, 1000, 1000, &bdc, 0, 0, 1000, 1000, SRCCOPY);
}

and nothing happens .... why ?????
I tried to change the sign of the coordonate values and still nothing ...

How can I create a compatible DC with my DC and to paint in it ?????
please help !!!.... thanks ......

Hmmm, it should have worked...

...but I not took real time to dig your code enough !

BTW, have a look at my own code (which work in every case), and find out how it works Wink | ;)

Tips, look in CSkinProgress::OnPaint() !

http://www.codeproject.com/miscctrl/CSkinProgress.asp

Kochise

PS : Use CSkinProgress::ConvBitmap(...) to convert your bitmap from another color map if for instance, you are trying to display a 24 bits/pixel picture on a 16 or 32 bits/pixel screen ! Otherwise you'll get a black/blank screen instead !

In Cod we trust !

Debug Assertion Failed

Hello everyone.

i'm i got a program that uses the drag and drop class from CP (i think Leon Finker's) and i'm not sure whats causing it, but when in debug mode i drag something from one listview to another, i get "Debug Assertion Failed" on line 1132 of dbgheap.c something about _CtrlsValidHeapPointer(pUserData) and "Damage: before Normal block (#-858993460) at 0x0012D1D8"

I'm have no idea how this is happening, and why, i was hoping someone could help, me, even a good article on debuging would be nice. I'm using WTL as well.

Even when i have the onDrop method do nothing i still run into this error, i can get to line 1186 in dbgheap.c then it wont do anything but break out of running. Its something to do with freeing debug memory from the heap. anybody know anything that could help me?

thanks

Luke.

You (or some code you're using) allocated memory, then wrote outside of the block of memory. In this case, it underran the block and the CRT detected it.

#region in vc?

Hi!
region is very useful feature in c#. By region, we can organize long file easily.
is there such a feature in vc7?
I know vc7 will hide or show class or method. But does it have a region feature, i hope to use it to split my long #define list manually.

Print a postscript file

Hi !

I have a postscript file on my harddisk, and I want my application to send it to the printer. I've got no idea how I can do this, if possible using only standard C++ (I'd like my app to be platform independent).

Thank you for your help !
Jerome

Printing and platform independence? Good luck. Dead | X|

You can try to send the PS file as text to the printer device. PostScript printers sould recognize it as a PostScript file and render it.

My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.

Open the printer device (on windows, 'prn:' should work) with a iostream and stream your file into it. Thats it. You have no control over pagination, fonts etc., as you are printing a PostScript file to a PostScript printer, that has already been accounted for.

My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.
