Thanks! I tried that and it worked, but I dont understand why.
I thought that with pointers you had to use '->' instead of '.'.
I was using menu_array[i]->CreateMenu();
instead of menu_array[i].CreateMenu();
Could you shed some light on this for me?
Thanks!

In C and C++, an array is simply a constant pointer to the first array element. Array notation A[i] denotes the i<sup>th</sup> element of the array starting at A, and is equivalent to the pointer notation *(A + i).
Turning this around, this means you can use a pointer as if it were an array, and this is what I did in my example. The menu_array value is a pointer to the first element in an array. Given that, menu_array[i] gives you the actual CMenu object, rather than a pointer to an object.
I realize this is rather subtle. It takes a while to get used to.

Cool, that kinda makes sense... I'll have to think about it for a while!
Thanks!

When I use CMenu *menu = new CMenu[myvariable];
You declare an array of CMenu so menu[n] is a CMenu, not a *CMenu
There are plenty of other reasons why the program would crash but until you understand this first one you're not going to get very far...

Hi,
I am trying to migrate my existing code (c++ - MFC) that works fine in VS6 to VS7.
In my code i have a client server mechanism using the MFC CSocket and Carchive to serialize objects between sides.
This works fine under VS6, but when compiled and run in VS7 the actual serialization process (the storing\reading to\from the archive object) takes much much longer, and after a while it simply get stuck.
when i break in to the the code on the send side i see it is stuck in CSocket::SendChunk and every time it tries to send it gets the WSAEWOULDBLOCK.
(All of the transferred objects are CObject derived ( DECLARE_SERIAL, IMPLEMENT_SERIAL and Serialize overloaded) and contains only MFC CObject derived or CStrings composite object )
Any known issues or ideas?

I am having a problem with threads and wonder if anybody can help,
I am spawning a worker thread that updates a linked list that I need access to from the other thread, basically i am passing the instance of the class with the linked list using a struct:
UINT CNetworkMonitoringDoc::CaptureThread(LPVOID pParam)<br />
{ <br />
THREADPARMS* ptp = (THREADPARMS*) pParam;<br />
CPacket* m_capturedPacket = ptp->pPacketInst;<br />
delete ptp;<br />
...<br />
}<br />
The worker thread adds data to the linked list ok but when the orginal thread needs to do something with the m_capturedPacket instance the contained linked list is empty, im guessing the thread is creating its own private copy and working on that; is there anyway to share m_capturedPacket between them?
Cheers
Andy

Hi,
General question:
How can can I obtain a handle to some window only by using its handle, for example: 000004C8
Detailed Question:
How can I obtain a handle to a textbox which resides on a modal dialog, which itself opens as the child of its parent? I should say that I don't know what's the name of that editbox, I can just obtain its handle for example by using spy++.

Excuse me, I meant a pointer to its window:
CWnd *pWnd = ...
|
|
|
|
|
pWnd->m_hWnd; gives you the handle of the window.

You can use CWnd::Attach() to attach a window handle HWND to a CWnd object.

Is it possible to map a CComboBox control to a CString data type? I'm looking in the class wizard, but it only gives int as a possible value so I just want to double check. Thanks.

int is a verymuch a logical thing to get, coz you can then get corresponding string,and other values from it.

sry to post this 2x but i figured some ppl wouldnt see it in my other thread.
i get this error:
cannot convert parameter 1 from 'unsigned int' to 'const char *'
Conversion from int type to pointer type requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or functions-style cast
for this line of code:
m_port.AddString(ports.ElementAt(i));
How can i fix this?
Thank you

It seems that ports.ElementAt if of type unsigned int (number) and must be of type const char * (string).
Could you provide the ports structure/class declaration/initialization?

Ok.
The code in the thread is:
tprintf(_T("COM%d\n"), ports.ElementAt(i));
then, port.ElementAt(i) is a number.
You have to modify your code in the following way (or similar):
char txt[256];
sprintf(txt,"COM%d",ports.ElementAt(i));
m_port.AddString(txt);

I need to store the handle of my dialog so that I can pass it to my plug-ins so that they can pass messages back to the calling application. I am doing the following in OnInitDialog(). Will this cause any problems or is this method okay?
BOOL CHTPCCOREDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
...
HWND hMainWindow = AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd->GetSafeHwnd();
...
}
|
|
|
|
|
It is safe as long the main window is not recreated.

To use all afx functions do you need MFC linked applications?
