You could use a timer. Have a look at WM_TIMER and OnTimer in MSDN.

Well, there is another way instead of using control variables:

From MSDN:

<br />
CWnd::SetDlgItemText(int nID, LPCTSTR lpszString);<br />

So you would be able to type and run this:

<br />
SetDlgItemText(MY_RESOURCE, "I am alive");<br />

Applying this to your source code would be:

<br />
// m_chart = "Chart1";<br />
// UpdateData(FALSE)<br />
SetDlgItemText(MY_RESOURCE, "This is my first text");<br />
Sleep(1000);<br />
// m_chart = "Chart2";<br />
// UpdateData(FALSE)<br />
SetDlgItemText(MY_RESOURCE, "This is my second text");<br />
Sleep(1000);<br />

Hope it helped.

How to determine the focused control?

Hi there

I have a CFrameWnd with a CTreeCtrl and a CListCtrl ... If a user selects a control it automaticly got the focus (Yes its the truth Smile | :)

) ... but how to determine which control got the focus?

Thanks for reading Wink | ;)

The GetFocus() method will return a pointer to the window that has current focus. From that it will be easy enough to determine which window has focus.

Or you could handle the CWnd::OnSetFocus even for each control.

You could do something like this:

<br />
CWnd* pWnd = CFrameWnd::GetFocus();<br />

Then you can work with pWnd, when really you are working with the control that has the focus. For testing purposes you can try this:

<br />
CWnd* pWnd = CFrameWnd::GetFocus();<br />
<br />
pWnd->SetWindowText("THIS WORKS MAN !!");<br />

Hope it helped...;)

Bandwidth Limiting

20-Oct-03 6:02

I'm looking for a way to limit the tcp/ip bandwidth of an application (or set of applications) from another application.

Basically I need to provide the facility to limit the upload and download KBytes/Sec of a set of processes, with the limits set by the application I am writing.

I know this is possible (as there are a number of applications out there that can do this, www.netlimiter.com is one example), however I need to be able to include the functionallity in my own program.

Any suggestions of what approach to take, where to look for ideas etc...?

Thanks...

So far my search has lead me to "Packet Filtering" with potential solutions here on codeproject[^] for Win XP and 2000.

Not sure if this is the right direction to head yet tho...

You can use Network emulator tool-kit for windows.
Find it here http://www.gonetdotnet.info/posts/how-to-test-an-application-in-limited-bandwidth. You can find how to configure and use Network emulator tool kit for windows to test your application in limited bandwidth.

I'm currently modifying a program originally written in C, and I'm fairly inexperienced in programming using MFC and Visual C++
I have a class that gets read in from a menu command, which works OK.
How can I access this class from the automatically generated View classses so that I can display it?
Any help and/or comments are welcome

If you have the class in your document class use GetDocument() in your view class to get a pointer to the document and access the member variable from there.

Program the router to do so. For non sophisticated users, set up a firewall on the PC in question.

OnHScroll for CSliderCtrl runs 3 times - why?

ns20-Oct-03 4:43

20-Oct-03 4:43

I see that when I step into OnHScroll() upon clicking the slider (not even sliding it, just clicking it) why does it step in three times and then finally show the adjusted display after exiting onHScroll?
Thanks,
ns

OnHScroll --- further question

ns20-Oct-03 5:28

20-Oct-03 5:28

I saw that the third time, it steps in with nPos coming in as 0!!! Even though I scrolled right quite a bit, and nPos is NOT 0!. The nSBCode is END_SCROLL. Got around the problem by skipping the third step-in, but in another part of my project where the slider and SetBrightness() function both are in the same class (here they are in two different classes), the third time also, nPos is non-zero and really what it should be.

void CDlgSettings::OnHScroll(UINT nSBCode, UINT nPos, CScrollBar* pScrollBar) 
{
	pSld = (CSliderCtrl*)pScrollBar;

	if (pSld !=0 && nSBCode != SB_ENDSCROLL)
	{


		if(*pSld == m_sliderBright)
		{
			m_pParentWnd->SetBrightness(nPos);
		}
		
	m_pParentWnd->DisplayLocal();
	
	}

	CDialog::OnHScroll(nSBCode, nPos, pScrollBar);
	
}

thanks,
ns

As Mike Dunn (I think) already pointed out, you should be doing using GetPos() to get the slider's current position and not the message-specific nPos value.

haha! You are so funny!

Revamped my project yet again.....waiting for something new, but keep ripping up the current one and redoing it. Did a QT project a while ago.

The HScroll issue was so perplexing. Wonder why nPos cant be relied on....

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
