Hi,
I am using "DrawText(HDC hDC,LPCTSTR lpchText,int nCount,LPRECT lpRect,UINT uFormat)" in my project, it returns 0 means function fils. In which case this function will fail and whether there is error code for this function?
I have gone through MSDN but they didn't mentioned the reason for failing.
Thanks in Advance,
Ratheesh

That usually works for most WinAPI calls that don't return an actual error message off the back... but its usually specified in the MSDN documentation... for whatever reason, they didn't specify this for this call[^]. That omission is a bit strange.

The problem isn't with the DrawText call itself. Apparently something is NULL in
DrawText(HDC hDC,LPCTSTR lpchText,int nCount,LPRECT lpRect,UINT uFormat)
An access violation occurs in unmanaged or unsafe code when it attempts to read or write to memory that has not been allocated, or to which it does not have access. Not all reads or writes through bad pointers lead to access violations, so an access violation usually indicates that several reads or writes have occurred through bad pointers, and that memory might be corrupted.
[This] might shed some light.

Where exactly did they say they experienced an access violation? They could have simply passed in an invalid parameter option for format or the function could have simply checked for a NULL parameter and returned indicating failure based on that branch statement.

Try showing the actual code from your program, and make sure that all the parameters are valid.

Hi,
i search for an function to restore folder content to previous status/version?
I mean, if i add new files to folder, i need in some cases to restore a status before adding new files!?
Restore to previous version?
Is there an API to use for that or some sample code??
Simple single deletion of any each file is not the way, because there can be many files added(hundreds)!
Thanks for any help!

No such API exists.

You can use SHFileOperation() with wildcards.

Windows has a feature called Backup.
Find it here , and a list of related actions here.

If functionality provided by the operating system is not sufficient, you might consider using software revision control for your files or differential backup with your prefered tool.

Hi all,
I have made a application in which i play video files Using MCI api's. Everything is working fine accept when the video ends playing and i move my dialog or any window comes over my dialog then the control in which i play my video becomes empty or it does not repaint itself.
I want that after video ends and some windows come up on it, the image should remain there.
How can i do this??
Thanks in advance

Do you set m_Play.EnableWindow to TRUE?
m_Play.EnableWindow(TRUE);
m_Video = MCIWndCreate(this->GetSafeHwnd(),
AfxGetInstanceHandle(),
WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE|MCIWNDF_NOMENU,m_Path);
MCIWndPlay(m_Video);
Pause = FALSE;
m_Play.EnableWindow(TRUE);
[ here] is a fine example of MCIWndPlay usage that remains there.

Hi,
I'd like to make the button save as.. and load, but I think that maybe this button is made in visual as activeX or something like that.
Do you know if it is made already?

Where do you want to put a button save-as or load ? dialog ? menu ? toolbar ?
And, adding a button for the save-as and load will not actually do all the code ... just sayin'
M.
Watched code never compiles.

Just add them to your toolbar, and then add the code handlers for both items as required.

I'd like to add this button in a dialog. But I dnt know where are these button or if its ones is already made

You have to make the button yourself (just use a button control), then within the event handler of the button press, add the code you need for prompting the user for file names (see my solution[^]).
|
|
|
|

What do you mean "already made"? If you are creating an application then you should know that all toolbar or dialog buttons have to be added to the project by you. In both cases the Visual Studio Framework does most of the hard work for you; all you have to do is use the designer to drag items to the right place.

If you're talking about using the Windows common dialog for "Save As..." or "File Open" then look at CFileDialog[^] if you're using MFC or the Common Items Dialog[^] when using just the WinAPI.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes Im using mfc, then I must look CFileDialog?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes... you can still use the WinAPI directly, but using MFC classes is generally easier.

Oy vey, you want to know how it is made already! 
Anyway, jewish language jokes aside, you add buttons to your dialog though the UI editor in MFC, bring up the toolbar, drag and drop a button where you want it, give it a meaningfull ID, add a handler, add the code.
If that is too much, do a basic tutorial in MFC.

I remember this user from before stating he was just starting to learn to use MFC plus he's not a native English speaker... So, we need to be patient with the new ones...

Could you show me how to use to load/save file with CFileDialog??
I dont find some example
