You want C#, it adds exactly these things to the language, and more ( i.e. more for enums ). But in C++, the answer is, no. The best you can do is end each enum with an element called ItemCount, or something. It will then hold the number you want, as the list is 0 based.

No, the standard way of doing this is something like
enum MyEnum
{
meVal1 = 0,
meVal2 = 1,
meVal3 = 5,
me__MinVal = 0,
me__MaxVal = 5,
me__Count = 3
};
Otherwise, enums are just slightly typed constants. They aren't a particularly solid type (like in pascal), but is does have its advantages.

The way I've always done this is:
enum MyEnum {
val1 = 0,
val2 = 1,
val3 = 5
MyEnum_min = val1,
MyEnum_max = val3,
MyEnum_cnt = 3
};

In an effort to use a specific printer I am using OpenPrinter with the printer name. When this call is made using most of the printers I have access to it works fine. However, if the named printer happens to be an HP printer, OpenPrinter() returns 1801 (INVALID_PRINTER_NAME). The name is the correct name from the installed printers on the system.
Does anyone have any idea what's going wrong?
|
|
|
|

What OS?
For NT, XP and 2000 it seems to want the PRINTER_DEFAULTS.DesiredAccess to be set to READ_CONTROL || PRINTER_ACCESS_USE

I'm using XP. I'll give this a try. Thanks.

the DesiredAccess flag made no difference. I still got an 1801 error back from 'GetLastError()' after OpenPrinter failed. This only happens with HP printers. All others seem to work fine.

How can I merge the string table of 2 resource file automatically. For example I have a main resource(main.rc)with default string table entries and a second resource(temp.rc)with extra string table entries. I added the #include "temp.rc" into the main.rc. but it doesn't add it. Any ideas?
Thanks

Open the two .rc file in one vc ide, select the strings that you want to append and then drag n drop in the target table.
this will do the trick.
hope it helps.

Do you get a compiler error? This is normally not an issue as there is already a #include for a .rc2 file that AppWizard creates for you. It shouldn't be any different than that.

In win2k you have the environment varible username that containts the name of ther user that has logged in,
In dos if you type set and enter you will find lot of other information releted to user profile and other stuff.

Use NetWkstaUserGetInfo(). I would refrain from using environment variables for this as they can be set, unset, reset at any time.

While it has nothing to do with MFC, I think NetUserEnum() is what you want.

Hi,
I'm having problems importing and using a WAV file within my MCF project.
IN VC++ 6, I went to the resource tab and imported the WAV file. I can actually see the declaration of the resource in the .rc file
But when I use FindResource(), this function does not find it so it returns NULL.
-- Here is the declaration in the .rc file:
IDR_WAVE1 WAVE DISCARDABLE "res\\ring1.wav"
-- Here is how I'm trying to find that resource:
HRSRC hResInfo;
HINSTANCE Nl=AfxGetInstanceHandle();
hResInfo = FindResource(Nl,"IDR_WAVE1","WAVE");
It seems that it finds the type "WAVE" but not the resource name "IDR_WAVE1" because the error returned by GetLastError() is the 1814 = No resource name found.
I appreciate any hint or suggestion. Thank you in advance.
R.B.

Hi all,
i was browsing through the windows DDK when i found a page about volatile and non-volatile cpu registers for the x86-64.
is there an equivalent for the x86?

Can you elaborate what are volatile registers???

e.g EAX is a volatile register, which ESI and EDI are non-volatile.

humm, well if i apply the same analogy i would say that
in 8086 ax is volatile and si,di is non volatile....
frankly i am sorry i cant give good answer to this.
sorry.

I'm trying to delete the contents of a file, but not the entire file. I want to keep the size of my log file down; and hence, remove older data from the file. I was thinking of reading the contents into a string class and then delete the file. Then, I would split the string (hence, removing older data) and writing the file again. This seems like a lot of trouble. Is there a better way to do this?

CStringArray could be used for this, unless the file was extremely large, then it might become inefficient.
If each entry in the log file were a constant length (e.g., 75 characters), then it would be very simple to keep the file limited to a constant number of lines.

You should use _O_TRUNC in open file routine
|
|
|
|

there is an easier way to "clear" the file without deleting it.
use SetEndOfFile.

Have you considered CFileDialog or GetOpenFileName()?
