I've always been facinated with code optimizations...I suppose it has a lot to do with the fact that I haven't had a new computer in like 5-8 years...

Nothing wrong with that... as long as fascination doesn't turn into obsession. If you want to optimize, profile first. I don't believe you'll find that using exceptions will slow your code down.
BTW: are you aware that calling new/malloc and delete/free is quite expensive?

Perhaps a slight obsession...
I seem to wanna go back in time rather than move forward with technology...honestly i'd rather code in assembler than anything...just cuz you have total control of everything. Sounds ridiculous, but i've never claimed to be the most productive programmer.
Actually I really enjoy OOP...the whole object concept is really cool too...i've always hated hi level procedural langs...like QBasic or Pascal...tho

Hi
I have a dialog based application that uses many popup windows to display data. I changed the icon for these popups and it shows in the popup window and the task bar.
My prob is the new icon will not display (on the 'switch-to-program popup' window) when I press Atl-tab to swap between windows. What do I need to do for it to show up.
<br />
CMyWnd * mywnd = new CMyWnd (this);<br />
mywnd->Create(IDD_MYICON,GetDesktopWindow());<br />
HICON icon = AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDI_MYICON);<br />
mywnd->SetIcon(icon);<br />
thanks

You need to change the large (32x32) icon also.

Hello all,
I am currently trying to develop an application using Visual C++. This application uses two different existing libraries, one of which (DirectShow) is compiled using the __stdcall naming convention, the other and SGI library is compiled using the __cdecl naming convention. The problem is that I need to use both these libraries in developing my filter, when I compile using __stdcall I get link errors in resolving the SGI library methods. When I compile using __cdecl I get errors in resolving the DirectShow methods.
Both libraries are C++ libraries, neither library is small enough to directly specify the function/class names, they require inclusion of numerous header files. The SGI library header are improperly declared (not specified as __cdecl in the headers).
Does anybody have any suggestions??

There's an easy way to force functions to be __cdecl. Just do this
extern "C" {
#include <sgi_headers.h>
}
Then just compile using __stdcall, and it should work.

Thanks for replying, I already tried that and it gives me loads of errors (102 of them) such as
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SILICON GRAPHICS\SDK\INCLUDE\ocs/ox/corba.h(699) : error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function '_type_code' not allowed
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SILICON GRAPHICS\SDK\INCLUDE\ocs/ox/corba.h(699) : see declaration of '_type_code'
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SILICON GRAPHICS\SDK\INCLUDE\ocs/ox/corba.h(703) : error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function '_type_code' not allowed
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SILICON GRAPHICS\SDK\INCLUDE\ocs/ox/corba.h(703) : see declaration of '_type_code'
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SILICON GRAPHICS\SDK\INCLUDE\ocs/ox/corba.h(707) : error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function '_type_code' not allowed
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SILICON GRAPHICS\SDK\INCLUDE\ocs/ox/corba.h(707) : see declaration of '_type_code'
....
....
....
what else can I do, this is for my thesis at uni.... and the due date is approaching fast, and I cant even get it compiled!

'_type_code' is redefined , Use another function name!

Hello, I was wondering what is required of a bitmap for it to displayed with a
transparent background when used as a toolbar button. I have two bitmaps, and when used in the same code, one yields transparent button backgrounds and the other doesn't. The bitmap that yields transparent backgrounds was used in a project I did three years ago, but I can't see anything special with it. Both got black background. I know the bitmap that will yield transparent background, but that is because that it was part of a larger toolbar bitmap in an unconventional size that I reduced to a size of 16*15 (using the resource editor).
I am putting the entire project on the following url if anyone wants to take a look.

Please! This is driving me crazy!

CToolBarCtrl uses image lists so according to MSDN:
An image list may also include a monochrome bitmap that contains masks used to draw images transparently (icon style).

Hi,
I really really desperately need to learn how to get the amount the listview control has scrolled of. Like 10 pixels up or 40 pixels down... I cannot find it anywhere... Thanks
|
|
|
|
|
Just a guess 
UINT nScrollPos = GetScrollPos(SB_VERT)
"An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes in his or her field" - Niels Bohr
|
|

|

yeah, but that gives me the position instead of the amount of pixel scrolled. Even if I keep the last position and calculate it then, then how will I get the result if it it the first time I request the position and have no previous one... Okay, ,aybe I can assume it was 0... and can I assume it is position = scroll amount in pixels?
Thanks
|
|
|
|

If GetScrollBar() is retuning the index of the top most item in the list...multiply this number by the height of each individual item. This value I think can be retreived via CListCtrl::GetItemRect()
That calculation will return scroll position in pixels...i think...

cheers

I have created modal dialog and I passed pointer to my View class to it.
Now I need to get input from the dialog and update my List control in View class in real time.
Is there any way to overwrite modal stage of the view only for input a then reset it back.

 What do you mean by that?
If you just need to get the data from the dialog and update the view class; just get the data in the part that you call the modal dialog. Then pass this data to your View class using either messaging or calling the functions of the view directly.

I have a map <cstring, cstring=""> which gets filled in with keys and values chosen by the user. My question is, can the user leave the editbox that holds the value blank? So that that key has a NULL value? Will that mess up my map? Since a NULL is not a CString, there will be some sort of problem right? Yet I do want to use a Map and I do want a user to be able to enter no value at all....
Thanks,
ns

what are you using for the key, a char * or a CString ?

A CString for key and for the value too. Incidentally I added another question to my initial one..
|
|
|
|

if you're using a CString, then NULL is not an issue. you will just have an empty CString as a key in that case, not a NULL.

Except theres a complication: This map key and value eventually have to be converted to char* because thats the way Access takes them in as records.
