GetNumberFormat for integer values - C / C++ / MFC Discussion Boards

I'm now trying to get the position of the characters in the control, then outputting them seperately. Seems better, the graphics is much closer to what is on the screen. It is off some (about 1/2 of a character.) I'm wondering if it is a round off error?

Are you asking how to add your program's icon to the tray in the lower right corner of the taskbar? If not, I do not understand your question.

GetNumberFormat for integer values

I'm trying to use the GetNumberFormat API for integer values. No fractional digits and no decimal seperator should appear in the output. I want to use the API to account for locale settings. The results should look similar to the file sizes in Explorer's File Properties dialog.

Ok, so what's the problem? Do you have a code snippet that is producing a compiler or run-time error?

NUMBERFMT fmt = {0,0,3,"",",",1};
char      szNumber[16] = "123456",
          szFmtNumber[16];
GetNumberFormat(GetThreadLocale(), 0, szNumber, &fmt, szFmtNumber, sizeof(szFmtNumber));

I don't get an error, I don't want to use the NUMBERFMT structure but use the user locale settings for the number format, only without the fractional part. Maybe there's an API to get the number format, but apparently it's not GetNumberFormat D'Oh! | :doh:

And I wanted to avoid having to call GetLocaleInfo for each member of the NUMBERFMT struct.

You can't eat your cake and have it too. The whole premise behind using locale settings is so that applications won't make assumptions as to what the user wants. If the user sets up their machine to have , (comma) as the thousands separator, you mustn't override that with something else, or remove it altogether. Same goes for fractional digits, decimal points, negativity, etc.

I have a slightly similar situation with the project I am working on. It's a scheduling application, which makes heavy use of dates and times. The application has to work no matter what locale it is in, or what regional settings are in place. Luckily, the NLS functions minimize the pain.

<code>
{
#define STR_WIDTH 2

	CStringArray arrStrings;
	CString  strSource(_T("abcdefghi"));

	int nPosition(0);

	while(nPosition < (strSource.GetLength()-1))
	{
		arrStrings.Add(strSource.Mid(nPosition,STR_WIDTH));
		nPosition+=STR_WIDTH;
	}

}</code>

or something of this effect. NB: this is untested.

A console input/output from a multiline edit control

Jerome Conus4-Sep-03 0:49

Hi !

I'd like to have in my application a console window. To do it, I just have a normal multiline edit control, which I would have to use to implement by myself the console functionalities.

I tried to think how to do it, but I have no idea how to solve these points :

-How can I make sure the cursor will stay at the prompt if the user click anywhere else ?
-How can I make sure that, even if the cursor stays at the prompt, the user will be able to select some text and copy it.
-How can I make sure that any keyboard input will be captured by my console window ?

Any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated !

Thanks !
Jerome

An edit control implies a GUI application.

If you meant something else, I missed it. Please elaborate more.

Yes, it is a GUI application, but the user is allowed to display a small terminal window (console window) in which he/she will type some commands to display internal states of the application.

I hope I made myself clear, now ! Smile | :)

Yes, more clear, but still not feasible to my knowledge. In other words, I know of no way to put a console window on top of a GUI window such that it acts like any other type of control.

What you could do, however, is to use two edit controls, one for input and the other for output. You'd type commands into the one box, send them to a hidden console window, and capture the output in the other edit control. See here and MSDN article Q190351 for a better explanation.

I know exactly what you mean and I am trying to do the same thing. We don't want a "console" as in a DOS prompt, we want a control that lets us display a prompt, get user input, take some action, display results in the same window. MatLab and SciLab do this to allow the user to enter commands to do math and then it prints out the result in the window.
