Hai,
I'm doing a dialog application in win32. I have several static labels in my dialog. I'm doing a sequence of drawing and once I finish the sequence I Invalidate my whole dialog to erase all mt drawings. When I do this my first label alone disappears and later in the application when I do again Invalidate Rect then it appears.What's the problem here? I'm using that static text anywhere in my program. It is just there as a label.
What did I miss? Thanks a lot.

I need to be able to detect CD Burning devices, but after searching for some time now I'm still not sure how to get the information I need.
I need to be able to detect that there is indeed a device that can burn to CD-R/CD-RW (be is a CD burner, or a DVD burner than supports burning CDs too). What I *really* need is the drive letter for that device.
I do not actually need to do any burning, I simply need to detect that one exists and report the drive's letter.
If you have any ideas that will save me from Google-Hell, please let me know!
Thanks!

Have you looked at the Win32_CDROMDrive and Win32_PhysicalMedia WMI classes?

Did you not read the "Installation" and "Getting your project started" sections of that article?

Have you looked for it? On my machine, it's in the c:\winnt\system32 folder.

Which tells us nothing. What compiler/linker errors are you getting? What do the lines in error look like?

I am almost certain you need a compiler for that.

1. How can I drag my dialog when draging over a certain portion of the dialog??? When I'm using:
UINT CNBinderDlg::OnNcHitTest(CPoint point)
{
UINT ret = CDialog::OnNcHitTest(point);
if(ret == HTCLIENT)
{
return HTCAPTION;
}
return ret;
}
I can drag the window by draging anywhere in the window.
2. Is it posible to hide or lock a directory, not only in explorer(with ".{2559a1f2-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0}") but in other file managers like TotalCommander too??? Thanx!

1. Easily.
As you can see in the WM_NCHITTEST message handler, you receive a CPoint object that specifies the point, in screen coordinates, where the hit test was made. If you first use ScreenToClient function to convert the CPoint into client coordinates then you can compare the coordinates to a pre-made list of where the function should return HTCAPTION. Everywhere where HTCAPTION is returned, the dialog becomes draggable.
Thus, if, for example, the x-coordinate of the CPoint is smaller than a half of the dialog's width, then you return HTCLIENT. Otherwise you return HTCAPTION. As a result, when you click and hold on the right-most half of your dialog, it can be dragged.
2. Some advanced file managers by-pass the security settings placed in the registry. To go around this, you could try the _access and _waccess functions of the Run-Time C Library. Not sure if they work though...

These are "get" functions not "set" functions, or did I miss your intent?

you are right DavidCrow. _access and _waccess are get functions. I wan't set functions that hides (locks) folders no matter on what account you are, including administrator. Any ideas anybody?

I do not know how to do it programmatically.

I have a ListCtrl that is being updated with new data, I was planning to use the doubleclick to stop the updating and allow the use to edit two fields in the list, one is decimal the other in Hex. This would be via a right mouse click.
My question is how do you edit these fields in this control. I have only ever used this control to display data (View = report style). So I would like to right-click and see the 2nd and 4th colums in an editable state.
I have set up a control variable for the control but dont know how to use it for editing data items.
Any samples or a few lines of code.
Many thanks,
Sweep

Pretty simple really you create an edit control dynamically and then size and position it in the area that the list control cell occupies. The user edits the edit control then presses enter which you capture as the [end edit] signal. Then you copy the edit control text into the list control and wherever else you need it and either destroy the edit control or hide it to reuse it later in another cell.
If my memory is correct there are more List Control topic articles on CodeProject than any other single topic. Take a look at them and see if they dont show you how to do that. If not post back here and I will take a shot at it. I have some code laying around somewhere where I did that and more in a list control.

I have an application where I get a message and save a real number entered by a user. This value is stored. The next time the user enters a value I want to compare it to the stored value. If the values are floats I believe they cant be compared due to rounding. Is there a way to make a comparison between to real values?
Thanks.

The answer to this is found in the C++ FAQ at
http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/
If you read the whole thing you will see why I didn't point out where. I strongly recomend you read the whole thing.

You are correct.

Yes. You'll need to decide the level of precision, however. For example:
double dVal1 = 1.245, dVal2 = 1.249;
if (fabs(dVal1 - dVal2) < 0.01)
...
else
... The number of decimal places in the constant must be equal to the number of decimal places being compared in the other two numbers.

How can you get Microsoft Visual C++ version 6.0 to display the time it takes to compile and build a project? I don’t mean the /Bt option, that displays the time taken to compile each individual source file. There’s a way of displaying the time for the whole build. I know there is because I used to do it, but I’ve just reinstalled Visual C++ 6.0 and I can’t remember how I did it before!

Thanks very much for your speedy reply. It didn't seem to work at first, but a web search showed that it's not a project option but an option for the shortcut to msdev.exe . Where did you get this useful information?

HI!
In my code, I create a document template in the following way:
pDocTemplate = new CMultiDocTemplate(IDR_PHYSEDIT,
RUNTIME_CLASS(CPhysEditDoc),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CPhysEditFrame),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CPhysEditView));
if (!pDocTemplate)
return FALSE;
AddDocTemplate(pDocTemplate);
Everything works perfectly, but when the program exits I get
the following output:
e:\work\c++\project\utilities.cpp(117) : {58} client block at 0x003F4B40, subtype c0, 140 bytes long.
a CMultiDocTemplate object at $003F4B40, 140 bytes long
{56} normal block at 0x003F49F8, 78 bytes long.
Data: < 6 = = > D0 0D 36 10 3D 00 00 00 3D 00 00 00 01 00 00 00
My question is: How do I clean up the document template objects on exit? Shouldn't CWinApp do that?

You don't. CYourApp will delete the doc template object in its destructor.
Can you set the breakpoint in your app destructor and step into CWinApp::~CWinApp from there?
