button/icon on someone else's window? Peter Weyzen17-Aug-04 13:51 Peter Weyzen 17-Aug-04 13:51  Hey- How does one app go about putting a button on the title bar of another window? I've seen AOL and WebEx do this? They place a button, which receives events, and posts a pop-up menu. Thanks in advance ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /> Peter Weyzen<br /> Staff Engineer<br /> <A HREF="http://www.santacruznetworks.com">Santa Cruz Networks</A> Re: button/icon on someone else's window?

Could somebody explain to me what this means. Biquad[i] is an object of cBiquad. mfVh and mfGh are floats. I've tried suffixing 10 and 0.05 with f, but that gives me a separate error saying that the use of the suffix there is incorrect. If you could let me know what I'm doing wrong it would be of great help! Thanks! Re: Problem using the "pow" function crushinghellhammer17-Aug-04 12:47 crushinghellhammer 17-Aug-04 12:47  I seem to have fixed it by some kind of brute casting technique. The line now reads: Biquad[0]->mfVh = pow((float)10, (float)(0.05*mfGh)); Here's a link to the MSDN document if somebody else has a similar problem ERROR C2666 Suggestions for more elegant solutions are welcome! Re: Problem using the &quot;pow&quot; function User 58385217-Aug-04 18:58 User 583852 17-Aug-04 18:58  I had the same problem. Are you using VS2003? It doesnt seem to be a problem in vs6 Change your code like this. Its a bit neater Biquad[0]->mfVh = ::pow(10.0, 0.05*mfGh); Re: Problem using the &quot;pow&quot; function crushinghellhammer17-Aug-04 19:27 crushinghellhammer 17-Aug-04 19:27  Josh, Thanks for the tip, and yes, I'm using VS2003. That's a really weird error...digging through the MSDN documentation helped a little and I typecasted everything that could be (even the result, but apparently that wasn't required). I like your solution better. Could you please explain what the "::" does? Thanks again! Re: Problem using the &quot;pow&quot; function User 58385217-Aug-04 19:59 User 583852 17-Aug-04 19:59  The :: means "the pow() function from the globalname space". This is redundant if you dont use namespaces, and probably if you do but I like to use it when calling functions from the c library as it makes the code a bit easier to read im my opinion. Look at the declaration of the pow() template function in math.h if you are still unsure about how to use it Image copier - the best image tool for all programmers, don't miss it! includeh1017-Aug-04 11:26 includeh10 17-Aug-04 11:26  (I have post it on another forum, but I'd like to offer it first to MFC friends, don't call it as cross-post!) Image copier is the best image tool in the world developed for artists, programmers and normal users, such as company managers, office staffs. the software contains over 5,000 images (32x32 and 16x16 pixels). Each image is in six different styles, so totally the software equals to contain over 30,000 images. Images can be copied to clipboard for pasting by other applications (such as Photo-shop, Corel-draw). Images also can be saved as files (gif, jpeg, bitmap etc). All images can be resampled from 1x1 to 96x96 pixels. Those images are classified as different categories, such as people, animal, system, equipment ... don't miss it!

Anonymous17-Aug-04 10:27 Anonymous 17-Aug-04 10:27  I was writing a very simple chatapplication, I compiled it with no errors (it was first about 127 errors) and no warnings. I wanted to run and than suddenly I got that message: Debug Assertion Failed! I thaught that when there is no error occured, my application will work fine. But in this case , there is this serious error, so I hope somebody is willing to help me out. I clicked on Debug GO and after clicking on ignore-button at the "Debug Assertion Failed" message I get on the this-tab the following text: this CXX0017: Error: symbol "this" not found On the locals-tab I get the following text: + hInstance 0x00000000 + hPrevInstance 0x816724e4 + lpCmdLine 0x00540000 "" nCmdShow 1919251285 So, I really don't know what's going on, this is my first "complex" application I wrote. And my goal is to make a very simple chat-application, learn from it and than write an application to control electronic devices via internet with the basic of my chatapplication.

Please help me out!! peterchen17-Aug-04 10:52 peterchen 17-Aug-04 10:52  I thaught that when there is no error occured, my application will work fine Sorry, but that's so far from the truth. The language rules (which is all the compiler can check) allow many things that are prohibited by the "contract" (that is, how a function is supposed to be used). No useful programming language can guarantee tzhe program does what you expect, but C++ requires much more discipline, self-control and knowledge than other languages. Assert's are debug-time checks that verify things that should not happen (like passing a NULL pointer to a function that does not allow NULL pointers) "this not found" usually means you are currently not in a class' member function. As much as I'd love to help you, you probably need to start with smaller applications, trying to learn and understand concepts, common tools etc. I understand the desire for a "real" application, but you need to learn a few fundamentals first. There's nothing magic about things you understand. we are here to help each other get through this thing, whatever it is Vonnegut jr. sighist || Agile Programming | doxygen beeping the system speaker udi3217-Aug-04 8:27 udi32 17-Aug-04 8:27  hi.. i'm going through hell trying to activate the system speaker. when i try to use the "kernel32" Lib API function "BEEP", i only get a beep in the soundcard's speakers. if they happen to be turned off - i get nothing. note that: 1) i am using windows 98 2) there is a built-in motherboard system speaker. it's device driver is VMM32.VXD, and the devicer manager says it's functioning properly. 3) the internal speaker itself IS working (it beeps every time i turn the computer on). 4) there is a sound card installed. it's an avance ALS120, and it's driver is ALSWDM.SYS. if anyone knows anything about this - it doesn't matter if it's in visual C++ or visual basic or whatever, just make the thing beep.. and thanx anyway.
