Hi All,

I want to know whether there is any limit on number of lines i write in any c or c++ program.
Is there any limit after which if i compile program compiler will give me fatal error.
If i get any links related to Compiler limitations regarding program length limitations etc will be helpful.

Thanks and Regards

humm, dont know but i do remember when i used to program in Turbo C and i didnt know much about modularising of code, all the code was in one .c file one day the compiler cried about it being too long.

but i guess its all compiler dependend, and may be memory dependend also.

Hi ALL,

I want to open a doc. xls files in my application(using MFC/ win32 App), can I use "shell docview object" to achieve the same.Is it possible??? Can anyone show me a path to start.

Thanks in advance

Create a New SDI Application Using the MFC Wizard and select Both Active Document Server and Container (Only Container will do if you just want to host)

Complie and Run the Application as it is

goto Edit and Insert Object and you can insert Doc or XLS file

This is a start then you can go about exploring the Workings

Hope it Helps Smile | :)

Resource Editing in VC6

While playing around with CSpinButtonCtrl I inadvertantly created a monster. Because I created the controls in the wrong order the spinner was updating the wrong item in the dialog. There is no obvious way to change it, either. While searching for the identifier for the control I somehow managed to open the .rc file that defines the dialog layout for text editing. A couple of clicks and shuffles fixed everything nicely, but I can't figure out any way to open this file for text editing directly. Is there an easy way to do so, just in case I screw up again (as I'm sure I will)?

you want to open the .rc file for text editing?

if so,
1) right click on the RC file in the file view, and select: "open with.."
2) then select the option you wish to open it as.

Note: if you have the .rc file already opened in the resource editor it will ask you to close it.

That's what I expected, but there is no "Open with..." option in the context menu. I also checked the project settings to look for various things like "set default resource editor" but there are no such options there.

'Open with' exists in vc7 not vc6

The only way I know it works is this:
Menu/Edit/Find in Files
Find What:
I use a dot because it almost always there or
the words like: main, bmp, ico, etc
worse case use a text editor to know what is written in there

Files types: *.rc

Most of the times Visual Studio will tell you that it is Already open with another resource editor. Close it ?
Answer yes ( after saving wanted changes )

Click File->Open, browse & select the .rc file. In the Open as combo box, select Text. Voilà!

A faster alternative is to use WndTabs[^] and assign a hotkey to their "Open as text" command (I use Ctrl+Alt+Shift+T). Then when you are viewing any resource, use that command and it'll open the .rc file as text.

COmpile error?

Maverick15-Jan-04 17:47

I have CDialog based program..

The CDialog class has a member object derived from a custom class..

<br />
class CMyDialog: public CDialog<br />
{<br />
...<br />
...<br />
   CCustomClass* m_pObject;<br />
}<br />

but in the CCustomClass code i also have a member of type CMyDialog...

<br />
class CCustomClass<br />
{<br />
..<br />
....<br />
   CMyDialog* m_pDialog;<br />
}<br />

the problem is with this scenario, when i compile the the CDialog derived-class, i get an error saying that it can't recognize the CCustomClass class.. when in fact i have successfuly compiled the CCustomClass and wrote an include directive for the CCustom class (#include <customclass.h>)....

when i remove the member variable m_pDialog in CCustomClass.. the program compiles with no errors... when i put it back again, the error appears again... what seems to be the problem here?

Try using forward declaration of class CMyDialog in

CCustomClass.h File

something like this
class CMyDialog;
class CCustomClass
{
// your stuff
};

Hey all.

I'm on the move tonight Big Grin | :-D

One quick question. Currently, the way that I am doing this is definately not the right way of doing things.

I want to create a directory. (I'm using MFC BTW). I'm looking to see if there is a class (or if someone else may have built a class) that can help me do this. _mkdir is not really what I'm looking for because it won't create the folder if the parent does not exist. I'm looking to be able to build all "parent" folders of the dir as well. For instance, I want to say something like "CreateDir("c:\\temp\\1\\2\\3\\4\\5"), and if c:\temp does not exist, it will create it, then create c:\temp\1, c:\temp\2, etc.... I remember in VB M$ had a method that did this (I can't remember the name exactly) but I cannot seem to find it in VC. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks

Hey everyone.

Dangit!

I pressed some wrong button while trying to compile my program in VS .NET 2003. The dang editor added "->" on every line and a lot of "."'s throughout my entire program and I don't know what it is, nor how to get rid of it!!!!!

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Sounds like you've turned on visible whitespace. the '->' is for tabs, and '.' (in the middle of the line) is for spaces. It won't affect the program - it's just a display. In VC6 (I don't have .NET) the shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+8, but I don't know about VS.NET. Have a look in the help.

Hope this helps,

Ryan

Gee, what a great feature! Press a button and your program instantly becomes un-readable (at least after you've had a couple of jack and cokes, hehhe)

Change button text

15-Jan-04 15:45

Hello all.

I have a button in my program, IDC_PROCESSFILE. I want to change the text of this button on the fly. I have a checkbox, when the user hits a checkbox, I want to tie to the check/uncheck event to change the text on the button. IE. You can click "Process multiple files" checkbox, when you click that checkbox, I want to change the button to say "Process files" instead of "Process file" ... Just wondering if this is possible? I do know how to tie to the check/uncheck event, just do not know how to change the text of a button.

Thanks

One solution is SetWindowText().
