You admit purchasing stolen software and then claim to be an honest person. Your twisted logic escapes me.

The 2002 Professional product includes the optimizing compiler. The non-optimizing compiler is only shipped with the "Standard" edition, and the .NET Framework SDK.
Same for 2003 versions - "Professional" is what you need.
Which options are greyed out? What type of application are you building (.NET, Windows, .exe, .dll, etc.?)

One other thing - at the command line you can determine if you have the optimizing or non optimizing compiler -- just type cl /? to see the banner. Mine reports:

My bad... Yes, it is the "standard" version unfortunately.

// Load Process
HANDLE hBitmap;
hBitmap = ::LoadImage( GetModuleHandle( rvl_null ), pathFileName, IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0, LR_DEFAULTSIZE | LR_LOADFROMFILE );
m_pBitmaps[ i ].Attach( hBitmap ); // m_pBitmaps is an array of CBitmap
//////////////////////
CStatic* pImageCtrl = rvl_null;
pImageCtrl = ( CStatic* ) GetDlgItem( IDC_NEWMAP_DIALOG_IMAGE );
pImageCtrl->SetBitmap( HBITMAP( m_pBitmaps[ 0 ] ) );
I'm using this piece of code to place a bitmap inside a static control but it's not working as it should. What i'm doing wrong ?
PS: Bitmaps are loaded from file.
Thanks

You should pick Bitmap Type in Picture properties.

I didnt choose to enable print support when I created my project but now want to add it. Is it possible at this late stage or do I recreate from the start?
Thanks,

You can add the necessary code at any point, but I would recommend creating a temporary project with AppWizard and copy the necessary code over to your current project. That way it will look like AppWizard created it from the start.

thanks. I guess I will have to windiff the files in the projects and see what gets added on....

I've been looking around for a good tutorial on the basics of building a screen saver in C++ and without MFC.
I already have my EXE built; I just need to know how to make it work as an SCR. I know it needs to run in different modes like configure, test, preview, etc, but I don't know how to do this.
If anyone can point me to a good (or even semi-good) tutorial on this I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for your time.

I want to know how can I write a program based on Dialog Application, when it display another dialog, the dialog will fit the based dialog just like SDI/MDI's new files fitting in their parent window???
|
|

You want something like...
BOOL CMyPopupDlg::OnInitDialog ()
{
...
CWnd *pParent = GetParent ();
if (pParent)
{
CRect rc;
pParent->GetWindowRect (&rc);
SetWindowPos (NULL, rc.left, rc.top, rc.Width (), rc.Height (), SWP_NOZORDER);
}
...
return CDialog::OnInitDialog ();
}
I hope that helps,
Iain.

i guess setting the child windows with WS_CHILD style will do the trick, didnt test it, but i guess thats what it is.

Hi all,
I want to distribute my applications to others, but at the same time i want to make sure that it will run for the say N Days only. Can anyone give any direction to start. My application is Win32 Application and i am using MSVC 6.0
Thanks in advance.

Producing something that can't be fooled by e.g. setting the machine date back to the day of the instalation is very hard.
Makeing a solution that is not diabled by harddisk imageing/restore is almost impossible.
But if thats OK for you, the best thing is to finde a hidden quiet spot in the registry, write some encrypted timestamp there and check at startup if you are more than N days later.
Who is 'General Failure'? And why is he reading my harddisk?!?

In addition to jhwurmbach's suggestion, I would suggest making the registry key something not obvious. In other words, don't make it something InstallationDate, or DateOfExpire! Give it a name that has absolutely nothing to do with an expiring date.

Hi jhwurmbach abd David,
Thanks for suggestion.David can you elobrate future on how I can create the key which had nothing to do expiring date.
Again Thanks in advance

Simple: As the name of the Key use a GUID (made by Guidgen.exe). In that keys value you can store the installation (or expiration) date. Probably as an integer, not a date-string.
Hope that helps

I have read that a pointer has no relavence outside the process. What does this mean exactly. Can anyone explain this ..please. Also what about the far dont they refer to outside the process .... kindly explain.
Thank you.

You can use the analogy of a memory address being a phone number - where each process is equivalent to an area code.
If you call a number from the same area code you will get the person you expect. If you use a pointer withing your process you will get the data you expect...but if you use a phone number from a different area code you will get a wrong number and if you use a pointer from a different process you will get a wrong address which usually results in a program crash.
If you want to access another process' memory use the API call ReadProcessmemory which is equivalent (in the above tortured analogy) to adding the area code to the phone number.

Each process has its own virtual memory space. Simply, this means your processes pointer (0x1000) will
point to a different bit of silicon than the same pointer in a different process. This makes your
life simpler and allows for security (you have to work hard to damage another process, and vice versa).
The far keyword was used in 16bit windows to indicate a 32 bit pointer, with some other fancy bits.
It is completely obsolete in 32 bit machine. I imagine the compiler just pretends you hadn't typed
it.

Actually, the compiler never sees it as the preprocessor strips it out.

I was trying not to confuse the chap. I normally simplify preprocessor, compiler, and linker into
one big lump unless I can't do so. A big black box. Typed stuff in one end, exe / dlls out the other.
Unless they're doing occasional clever things, I imagine most people do to.
So there... 
Iain.
