Yes of course, the app can have many timer but how can I recognise
when the user has made no actions for e.g. 5 min. ?
At first I thought to use the OnIdle function but the internal WM_TIMER message
annul the idle state.
Another Problem is that the app is a client programm and get a lot of IP packets form the server and displays the data in controls. This are not user actions!

You can use GetLastInputInfo on Win2k to give you the time of the last "input" event - and compare that to the current time and then lock the app if the time out has gone
If you wanna run on 9x I think your into hook land - look up WH_FOREGROUNDIDLE - you might find this http://www.microsoft.com/msj/0200/c/c0200.aspx and this http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/0500/c/default.aspx useful which do what you want.

I'd simply poll keyboard and mouse inputs in the message queue.

One way would be to get the screen saver timeout value at the start of your application. Then set this value to whatever idle time you are interested in. Once that idle time has been reached, Windows will broadcast a SC_SCREENSAVE message. When your application ends, restore the screen saver timeout value to what it was.
Another idea that comes to mind would be to call SetWindowsHookEx(). As far as which type of hook to use, I don't know. Several of them look like they might work, but ultimately it'd probably be only one of them.
Classier ways may exist, but having never done this, I'm not familiar with them.

Many thanks for your suggestions.
I realized the application lock to filter out
the messages WM_KEYDOWN, WM_SETCURSOR, WM_MOUSEMOVE ...
I use the WindowProc from CMainframe and PreTranslateMessage from the
Application to keep the user event in mind.
I set a timer to pull the last user event and divided the time of timer by 10.
When the timer the peeks the noted user event it puts them back. After 10 times without user events the applcations will be locked.
It goes well and is not so complicate.
I get another problem with messageboxes. When a messagebox appears there are no window messages  In addition I have to handle a opened messagebox.
At the moment I'm thinking about this problem.
Thanks

I'm so stupid.
Why I haven't tried GetLastInputInfo at first? (don't answer me)
That works very simple and it is what I wanted.
Thanks

Hi,
I have at CListBox in a dialog box but I'm not able to capture mouse click (ex. LButtonUp() ) ?
Context-menu works fine on the mouse right click.
Can anybody help me ?

If the List box does not provide a way handle a message - WM_LBUTTONUP message in your case, you will have to use subclassing (write your own message procedure) for this control.
See the articles on subclassing here at CP, or at msdn.microsoft.com...

Have MFC subclass it for you with a DDX_Control statment, if its based on a resource:
1. Derive a class from CListBox
2. Double click on the list box in the resource editor with CTRL held down
3. Select control
4. Select your new derived list box class
5. Give it a name
Then use class wizard to add a handler to your LB for WM_LBUTTONUP to your new LB

Hi. Is everybody know how resolve NetBIOS name for some IP ?
PS Don't tell me about gethostbyaddr() . Need resolve NetBIOS rather than DNS.
Thanks

i tried gethostbyname and it first querries a DNS server, if failed it scans for netbios!
don't use slogans like this again please!

Don't try it, just do it! 
|
|

|

1. gehostbyaddr() too slowly for LAN (resolving timeout is too big)
2. Name rsolved by gethostaddr can be both DNS or NetBIOS.
I need ONLY NetBIOS names

please make clear , what do u mean by buffers of an AVI file are written in a file
r u trying to read an AVI file , writing its data in some other file.
or if u mean how to write AVI file?
if the case is later the there is a library available Vfw32.lib.
using AVI function of this libray you can create ur own AVI file by writing
AUDIO/VIDEO data in it.
like
0 AVIFileInit // for initializing AVI library
1 AVIFileOpen // for creating AVI File
2 AVIStreamCreate / for creating Audio/ video stream
3 AVIStreamWrite //for writing audio video data
5 AVIFileClose // for closing ur file
4 AVIFileExit / un initializing the library

I need to display a long block of scrollable text in a dialog. I tried using a read-only CEdit but it doesn't seem to allow more than ~65000 characters. Is there a way to increase the amount of text a CEdit can display? Or is there a different, more appropriate solution?
|
|
|
|
|
A CRichEdit can handle almost any amount of text.
Just remember to call AfxInitRichEdit before trying to display the dialog.

I am trying to place a high resolution bitmap on a Picture control. I resize the image to fit on the picture control.
However I lose some resolution (its quite bad).
I did try and load the image as a jpg and gif and wmf but keep getting the error:
c:\Task_Emu\Task_Emu.rc(339): error RC2170 : bitmap file res\PrimaryFlight.gif is not in 3.00 format
I have looked at the properties of the Picture control and Bitmap (set to True colour).
Are they antthing I can do to get the bitmap (or jpg) displayed a bit better. I expect some lose of resolution, but just want it a bit better if possible
Regards,
Sweep123.

How much are you resizing it?
|
|
|
|
|
Quite a bit!
The original image was done in CoralDraw and converted to bmp format (size ~2.MB).
Other programs, Paint, PaintShopPro display the detail, its just the Picture control seems to break it up a bit.
All I want was a bit more detail if possible.
Does that help?

|

|

I'm not sure this will help, but you could try StretchBlt'ing the image to a DIBSection in RAM and displaying that.
