DWORDS can only appear at offsets which are a multiple of four. (sizeof(DWORD))
Compilers are required to lay out a structures members in the same order as they are declared.
Put these two together... the compiler must insert padding.

struct S2
{
WORD w0;
};
why sizeof(S2) is 2, not 4?

because there's "nothing" after, is that a good answer ?

Why do you want to know?
The compiler can do whatever it wants. Your particular compiler has choosen to do it this way. Unless you have told the compiler to do otherwise the compiler is allowed to do anything it wants.
In most cases this question is invalid - you do not need to know! IF you have an exception (they do exist, don't get me wrong), beware that the answer will change when anything else changes. Not just the CPU or compiler, but sometimes different compiler options will cause different things to happen!

How can i add a splash screen in mfc
Learner always
|
|
|
|

Hi,
Click on "Project" in the main menu bar. Select Add To Project->Components and Controls. Select Visual C++ Components from the Components and Controls Gallery Dialog box and click on Splash Screen and finally click on "Insert" button. Sit back and relax, rest is done by MFC for you. You just need to design the bitmap for ur Splash Screen.

Hi all,
i use CWebBrowser2 (activeX control) on a dialog to display a web page.
the control shows Vertical scrollbar always, I want to hide the Vertical scrollbar because the web page just includes a small image - it will be much nicer if no vertical scrollbar.
I tried ctrl.ShowScrollbar(SB_VERT,0) and more, anyway the bar is there - i can't hide it.
can u help?
thx

You can put this in the page itself:
<body scroll=no>

I think you need to set this in the HTML code itself. ( I just can't recall exacly what is the tag property ... )

i'd like to get bitmap bits from an image.
I got the image 30X30, and i want to get the byte pointer to the one dimensional array of
30*30*24 where 24 is number of bits. How to make it?
I tried to use CImage, where i use the method GetBits(), but i got only the first line of
the picture - am i doing something wrong???

Hi,
I have a dll project but I no longer want to send the dll to the customer. Instead I want to send a lib file that the customer can link to in their projects (instead of loading the dll as they do today).
1. is there a way to convert the dll project into a static library?
if so how?
2. If not, I presume I have to create a new static library project from
scratch using New Project w32 static lib. Right?
3. If I have to create a new static lib proj, how do I "export" the functions
from the projects so they are available for the customer that will link the lib?
Thanks!!!

You don't have to do anything. The LIB is essentially like an OBJ file when it comes to linking, the LIB has the compiled version of your code, and the linker will search it for functions that your client calls.

OK thanks.
I've now created a new static library project and (re) created all functions, as it didn't seem possible to change any setting for the dll project to have it compile a static library (or is it?).
It works fine for me, but now I wonder, who can use this library?
It doesn't use MFC.
Sure, it will only run on intel compatible computers running Windows but what else is required.
Of course another VC++ 6 developer could use it (as it's compiled under VC++ v6), but what if the developer is using VC++ .NET environment, with or without managed C++?
What if the developer is using another c++ compiler (Intel, Borland etc)?
Anyone?

When you compile the code as C++, the LIB can only be used by compilers that understand the VC name decoration scheme. VC 6 and 7.x do so, as does the Intel compiler. There may be others as well, but those are the only ones I've used.

OK, thanks.
Actually no classes are availble from "outside".
The Lib has a static class (not a class with static functions but a static implemented class),
and only plain functions (that calls member functions of the static class) are available from outside (which prototypes are declared in the .h file that I send to the customer).
Does this make it possible to use it from even more compilers?
If not, is there perhaps a way to mark these functions as "C" functions?
Thanks!

Is there a way to put a menu in a dialog box in Visual C++.net?
|
|
|
|
|
I assume you mean in Visual C++.
Open the dialog in Resource View.
Go to Properties and find the Menu item (in Misc category).
Type or select the ID of the menu you want to use (you did create the menu first, didn't you?)
You won't see the menu appear in Resource View but it will work when you run the app.

I appreciate you answer. I am new to Visual C++.net. I was able to figure out how to add the menu. Thanks for the help !

I want to print an Enhanced Metafile. This file is generated and printed by using GDI+ (Graphics and Metafile objects)
What kind of Device Context do I have to use while generating this metafile, to be independent from the printer device it will be printed out later on?
When I use a screen Device Context while generating this metafile and print it, the dimensions of the printed shapes are not OK !

Hello Friends,
I am having a problem with the OnSize() member function. I had got 2 edit boxes which I am making them as Read only and at the run time they are getting resized according to the size of the Window. My problem lies in the background color of the edit boxes. Even though I made them as Read only I don't want the user to know that they are read only so I called the OnCtlColor() member function and setting the background color as White.
But same gap is present in between the 2 edit boxes whenever the window is resized. I want to fill this gap also with the edit boxes. but Its not happening
please help me
