Re: How to add functionality on 'OK' button on a property sheet?

2-Jul-04 1:58

When you click the property sheet OK button it will close the property sheet.

I suggest you do something like this:

1) Add a button to your page called "Calculate" for want of a better name.
2) Add the appropriate handler for the button press BN_CLICKED.
3) In the button handler code, add your values and set the third control.

When you press the calculate button you will then see the result.

i m using VC++ n Access as Database

if i m using hard code values of date n month n year its gives result fine

as query is

rs->Open(AFX_DB_USE_DEFAULT_TYPE, "SELECT * FROM Record WHERE (([Record].[Date] Between #9/27/2001# And #7/30/2004#))");

But i wanaa use values of date . year n month that r input by user .. in form of String or integer in variables .. m_date . m_month .. and m_year.

how can i use these variables values in Query now

i used like this but Wrong Query message appears
rs->Open(AFX_DB_USE_DEFAULT_TYPE, "SELECT * FROM Record WHERE (([Record].[Date] Between #m_month/m_date/m_year# And #m_month1/m_date1/m_year1#))");

I also Tried by TO_Date Function ,, but its said undefined function

how can i do it by user values ..

thanx

You have the right idea here. First create a valid SQL string, using the variables that you have set up for user input.
So if you have the int variables: m_monthx, m_datex and m_yearx. Then all you have to do is modify your code like:

<code>
CString strSQL.

<font color=green>// create your sql statement</font>
strSQL.Format(_T("SELECT * FROM Record WHERE (([Record].[Date] Between #%d/%d/%d# And #%d/%d/%d#))"),
m_month1, m_date1, m_year1, m_month2, m_date2, m_year2);

<font color=green>// open recordset with these user-defined values</font>
rs->Open(AFX_DB_USE_DEFAULT_TYPE, (LPCTSTR)strSQL);
</code>

How to change Menu caption dynamically?

Handle the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI event for your "Start"/"Stop" menu item and then in that handler function something along the lines of...

if(bStartMode)
    pCmdUI->SetText("Start");
else
    pCmdUI->SetText("Stop");

You could have code in the ON_COMMAND event handler to toggle the mode from start to stop. Hope this helps. Big Grin | :-D

I tried that, but i doesnt work. I'm using VC++6 with SP5 and my program is a dialog based program.

<br />
void CTestUImageDlg::OnUpdateFileExit(CCmdUI* pCmdUI) <br />
{<br />
	pCmdUI->SetText("Start");<br />
}<br />

Nothing happens!
Why??!!

Antony M Kancidrowski2-Jul-04 2:22

Why have you put the code in the update handler for FileExit?

You need to put it into the update handler for the menu item Start in the options menu.

I know that, i was testing if my Exit menu item will change it's caption. It was a test app, which does nothing. Just a menu with File>Exit. Clicking the Exit does not execute any function. So i just wanted to test if the caption changes, but it doesnt! Why?

Compilation problem after installing XP SP2 PSDK on Win2k machine

Vaibhav Sanghavi1-Jul-04 19:17

Hi All,

I have Win 2000 and VS 6.
We have developed an application which is suppose to run on all Windows OS. Application is devided in two parts mainly and those two parts communicate with each other over the network.
But when it comes to WinXP SP2 it fails because of the Firewall.

So we decided to change the firewall settings programmatically.
I cut the CD from image version of WinXP SP2 Platform SDK available at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...&displaylang=en

After installing the above Platform SDK I also registred the PSDK Directories with VS by clicking on Start-->Programmes-->Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows XP SP2-->Visual Studio Registration-->Register PSDK directories with Visual Studio.

After that when I am trying to rebuild my VC++ apllication it gives me following two compilation errors.

1. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows XP SP2\include\objidl.idl(2554) : error MIDL2025 : syntax error : expecting a type specification near "ULONG_PTR"

2. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows XP SP2\include\objidl.idl(2554) : error MIDL2026 : cannot recover from earlier syntax errors; aborting compilation

What are the settings which I should take care? I even read 'Read Me' and Getting Started documents coming with the PSDK. But I could not solve it. These documents basically suggest everythign for compiling using .mak files. I am not using .mak.
I have also made it sure that SDK include, lib and bin directories are list before Visual C++ include, lib and bin directories (from toos->options->directories in the IDE).

How to solve this? Any idea?
I will appreciate your help in this regard.

C++ optimization problem

Hi I have one question regarding on how to make my program run faster.
I use std::vector in my app, and I often do something like:

for(int ii = 0; ii < a_vector.size(); ++ii)
{
... codes here
}

I am wondering, will storing the a_vector's size before the loop and using it instead of calling a_vector.size() method on each iteration provide better performance?

Thanks!

I assume it will, since you don't have to make a function call. I also assume you're not changing the size of a_vector within the loop. Smile | :)

Possibly, but probably not. The size() method is an inline method that simply returns the value of a member variable, so if your compiler optimises correctly it should boil down to a simple comparison with a indirect-indexed value, just the same as if it was a local variable you were comparing against. However, it's probably a good idea to store the size locally anyway, just in case the compiler doesn't optimise it for some reason, and to make it more obvious to humans that you want the code to run as fast as possible.

Obviously, if the size of the vector changes inside the loop, then you'll have to either call size() each time or update your local variable every time you do something that changes the size of the vector (add, delete etc...)

Why not create two small functions and test it? Remember to run in release-mode.

I would just time the results - if the differences were not big enough to make a mark in - say - 10 000 iterations, I wouldn't even bother optimize it Smile | :)
