DirectSound - Window Handle problem

elza8-Jan-04 0:31

I have an UI based application designed using DirectSOund to capture nad playback voice. But teh problem is that it expects the UI window to be on top and on focus always. Presently I am passing the handle to the main UI application so when i minimize it our bring another application on top of this no audio can be heard though capturing takes place.

Presently I am setting DSSCL_PRIORITY in SetCooperativelevel. I have also tried the other levels....NORMAL, etc.

anybody worked on DirectSound ?Any solution to this ??

The first snippet is just wrong - you're overwriting the actual pointer to the memory block, which causes delete[] to simply do nothing in release mode. There's probably an assert in debug mode to tell you that you're trying to delete a null pointer.

If your debug mode is telling you about a problem, you should probably listen. Release mode doesn't do as much checking. Could you be corrupting this pointer somehow?

It would help if you posted the error message(s).

I wish to elaborate on what mike said.

char* pCharPointer = new char[intLength]; // pCharPointer now contians an address like 0x50FC3456

pCharPointer = NULL; // pCharPointer now contians 0x00000000

delete [] pCharPointer; // does nothing and is still a valid call

char* pCharPointer = new char[intLength]; // pCharPointer now contians an address like 0x50FC3456

delete [] pCharPointer; // frees/releases memory
delete [] pCharPointer; // error - already free
pCharPointer = NULL; // pCharPointer now contians 0x00000000
delete [] pCharPointer; // does nothing and is still a valid call

Get the HWND of Application B
and use ..
SendMessage(hWnd_B,WM_KEYDOWN,....);

To Get The HWND of B application USE
FindWindow

Hope it Helps Smile | :)

Sure,
but the problem is the HWND from FindWindow is the handle of main application B. If application uses another window associates to at the icon on th status bar? the window that manages messages from mouse (right click and so on)...
the HWND of the main application B cannot be the same the window that do this.

can help me some shell functions for this?

Can I make sure that the height of the listbox of a CBS_DROPDOWNLIST combobox is not affected by the itemcount, if this count implies a smaller height as defined by creation?

Re: CComboBox class

Use CComboBox::SetDroppedWidth( UINT nWidth );

//sample

// The pointer to my combo box.
extern CComboBox* pmyComboBox;

// Find the longest string in the combo box.
CString str;
CSize sz;
int dx=0;
CDC* pDC = pmyComboBox->GetDC();
for (int i=0;i < pmyComboBox->GetCount();i++)
{
pmyComboBox->GetLBText( i, str );
sz = pDC->GetTextExtent(str);

if (sz.cx > dx)
dx = sz.cx;
}
pmyComboBox->ReleaseDC(pDC);

// Adjust the width for the vertical scroll bar and the left and right border.
dx += ::GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXVSCROLL) + 2*::GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXEDGE);

// Set the width of the list box so that every item is completely visible.
pmyComboBox->SetDroppedWidth(dx);

greatest thing is to do wot others think you cant Smile | :)

Interfacing with MS Access

Hi,

I've written a program in Visual C++ 6.0 that periodically outputs data to a text file. Now, however I need to output this data to a MS Access database. I've created a link to Access using the Class Wizard to autogenerate code from 'MSACC9.OLB'. I've then created an instance of _Application which then allows me to open/create a database.
The problems that I have are:

1) when Access starts up, as well as opening the specified database it also displays the 'Select Database' dialog. How do I get rid of this?

2) Now that I have my database open how do I go about opening a table and then inserting data into it?
I've created a DoCmd object which I attach to my _Application object, however when I call OpenTable I get 'member not found' error even though the table exists. This may be due to my lack of understanding of the VARIANT type, as I've only created it and then called SetString (passing in my table name) on it.

many thanks,
Andy

You are doing it the hard way, aren't you? Wink | ;)

Why don't you use DAO or ADO? These will allow you to create your database, update it in the much more efficient way? And you do not need to have Access installed...
Good luck!

Hello,

If you develop application VC++ 6.0 you can use MS-Access 98 version. (or VB 6.0 Ad-Ins->Visual Data Manager) otherwise, displays the 'Select Database' dialog. I think you use in MS Access 2000.

Dear All:
I now use CGridCtrl by Chris Maunder, and I add all the source files manually not by ClassWisard, that is to say I only use the command "Add Files to Folder..." to add all the files.

The question is I can't find all the classed by Chris Maunder listed in ClassWisard, also can't find all the message by Chris Maunder in the ClassWisard,what should I do?

BTW: I can't add the a grid like what Maunder said in the introduce? Big Grin | :-D

Hoping...

You need to 'rebuild' your classwizzard file. To do this, rename (or delete but it's more dangerous) the .clw file from your project. Then open ClassWizzard and it will ask you if you want to rebuild it from your sources files. Say yes and select all the files (don't forget to select all the class from the control). That's it.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
