The .NET framework contains a rich set of controls and features for creating user friendly applications. Where possible stick to the standard controls, and avoid custom or third-party types, which add to the cost of maintaining your code.

The problem with web scraping, is that nothing is guaranteed. You need to examine the raw HTML text that is returned to see exactly what fields are present in the text.

Richard MacCutchan 6-May-24 4:24am View

Oops, my mistake. I think you mean that it is never initialised.

As I have mentioned before, the key to finding the answers to questions like this, is to look at the official Microsoft documentation, rather than random internet searches.

+5. I had a feeling there was something better, but haven't done a lot of Excel recently.

Then you will need to modify the formula to accept different criteria, or create a macro that allows you to enter the data requirements.

Richard MacCutchan 1-May-24 6:21am View

That's really a valid answer, Richard.

You are right of course. I was just trying to keep it simple.

You need to provide more details, including the code that fails, the actual error message(s), and the evidence that the "missing" file, is not missing.

Richard MacCutchan 29-Apr-24 8:15am View

You should check the value of rowcount on the returned cursor object, to see if the statement succeeded. Never assume it succeeds because it did not raise an exception.

"Is there anything I missed in my Dockerfile?"
How can anyone, apart from you, answer that question?

Your table has not been sorted, as the sort command has been commented out.

Richard MacCutchan 24-Apr-24 6:59am View

That has nothing to do with the question, which clearly states that OP wants each process to complete before the next one starts.

Richard MacCutchan 24-Apr-24 4:22am View

Unless you are using numbers for complex mathematics, statisitics etc., you should not use floating point. Because of their inherent lack of precision they are best avoiided.

What exactly is the problem? As far as I can see you read the file into pBuffer but then do nothing with that data.

Richard MacCutchan 15-Apr-24 9:25am View

"Do you have any other suggestion?"
About what? It is far from clear what you are trying to do.

Richard MacCutchan 14-Apr-24 10:37am View

Maybe you need to rethink exactly what you are trying to achieve.

Richard MacCutchan 12-Apr-24 12:15pm View

Why are you doing the same reference twice, when you have already added it to the ComboBox? And what exactly is in the structure theApp.m_arrL?

Richard MacCutchan 12-Apr-24 11:45am View

The code you have shown suggests that you are adding the same string each time, which makes no sense. Please show the actual data and the code you are using.

Richard MacCutchan 12-Apr-24 10:23am View

Your question is impossible to answer as we have no idea what you are doing, or trying to do. Please add some proper details of the code you are using and what problems you have with it.

Richard MacCutchan 9-Apr-24 11:46am View

Why would you send a value as a string to an entity that expects an int?

Richard MacCutchan 9-Apr-24 3:37am View

Richard MacCutchan 7-Apr-24 3:15am View

Without seeing your code it is impossible to guess.

Your list is all editors or IDEs. The question asks about alternative compilers.

Have you checked that your utf8_decode function returns a valid Unicode string?

Richard MacCutchan 5-Apr-24 4:34am View

Well that does not really tell us anything useful. Did you try calling GetLastError to see if that gives any reason for the failure? Have you checked that all parameters in your DOCINFO structure are valid?

Richard MacCutchan 5-Apr-24 3:56am View

What do you mean by "StartDoc is not succeeding"?

Richard MacCutchan 30-Mar-24 11:49am View

Do you have an actual question?

Richard MacCutchan 30-Mar-24 7:14am View

Using a cursor based display for such a game creates its own problems. You need to redraw every itme that the car moves through each time it passes along a road. This makes it quite difficult if the car is moving in any direction other thn left to right on the screen.

Richard MacCutchan 29-Mar-24 12:31pm View

Thank you again, happy to help you.

Richard MacCutchan 29-Mar-24 4:44am View

You are welcome.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 12:27pm View

Part 2:
Displaying graphics is basically just the same as displaying text. But instead of using nLine and nChar, you need to calculate the offset from the top and left of the image. So passing the height and the width of the image to SetScrollRange will give you the values to use in deciding where to paint from.

As to your last request, I don't think my code will help as it is text based. Maybe if you add your WM_PAINT handler code to the question I can make some comments that would be more appropriate.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 12:19pm View

Sorry, I guess my description was not clear. I mean that each time the paint event is called, it uses the scroll information to calculate whivch line of data, and which character in that line, to start with. So the first such characgter displays at point 0, 0. I always visualise this by taking a piece of paper with a square hole in it, and holding it over some printed text. So wherever you move the hole, you always see text starting in the top left corner.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 12:14pm View

The type of variable pVpstr does not matter. The point is that it points to the lines of text that need to be displayed. I should have mentioned that this code is used to display text files with up, down, left and right scrolling enabled.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 11:35am View

I will answer the first two questions as they are fairly easy:
1. I don't use ScrollWindow as in this sample i am displaying simple text. So each time WM_PAINT is called I repaint the entire Window starting at the point in the data that needs displaying. So if the page size is calculate as 20 lines and the scroll was caused by PAGE_DOWN I need to skip lines 1 to 20 and start by displaying line 21 of the text and beyond, always stopping when I hit the bottom of the display area.

2. The pointer pVpstr is a pointer to a vector that contains the lines of text to be displayed. Its size method returns the number of lines. So passing that value and the height of the display area to SetScrollRange returns the position in the data at which to start.

I need to think a bit more about the other queries.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 11:00am View

Thanks Pete, your comments are always a boost to the ego.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 10:22am View

See my solution below.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 4:49am View

"So what am I doing wrong??"
Without seeing your code we cannot guess.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Mar-24 4:46am View

Your scrolling code should be happening in response to WM_PAINT, not in response to scroll messages.

Richard MacCutchan 27-Mar-24 7:28am View

All you need to do is just edit your question and show us the code that is not working.

Richard MacCutchan 27-Mar-24 7:12am View

No one can guess what your code is doing. Please provide proper details of the code and the data you are trying to process. And trying simple to 'convert' a string into a RichTextBox makes no sense. You need to populate the text box with data.

Richard MacCutchan 27-Mar-24 4:35am View

Sorry, no. As I said, you need to use the debugger to find out what the code is doing when it processes the file. Or maybe you need to study the documentation to check that you code is correct in the way it is processing the data.

Richard MacCutchan 26-Mar-24 4:30am View

Sorry, I cannot answer that. If the code works with a file that I created, then the issue must be with the content of your files. So you need to investigate further. One thing you could try to start with is to run the code in the Python debugger, so you can see the actiual values that are being found in the word file.

Richard MacCutchan 22-Mar-24 10:21am View

I just tried that code with a self created document and it correctly found the bold font.

Richard MacCutchan 22-Mar-24 10:09am View

Have you checked the actual content of the file that you are reading?

Richard MacCutchan 22-Mar-24 6:38am View

Please be patient, we are all volinteers here, and answer in our own time.

Richard MacCutchan 22-Mar-24 6:37am View

I just tried your code and the ids start at 1 and go up in sequence. You need to show what actually happens when you run it.

Richard MacCutchan 20-Mar-24 7:30am View

Thanks, I can't actually remember using CArray, but it is 20 years or so since I last used MFC.

Richard MacCutchan 20-Mar-24 7:10am View

Forwards or backwards should not matter, as he is not removing the array items. Or do I misunderstand something about CArray?

Richard MacCutchan 20-Mar-24 5:30am View

Your explanation does not make sense. If the item is NULL then the test will skip the delete. You need to do some more debugging to see exactly what is happening.

Richard MacCutchan 20-Mar-24 5:01am View

Well your question is not clear, so please explain exactly where it crashes, and what variable values are the cause.

Your formatting has included some extra bits that should not be there.

Richard MacCutchan 11-Mar-24 5:22am View

You cannot load a text file into an image object, you need to read it into a character or string array.

Richard MacCutchan 10-Mar-24 8:55am View

What is the question?

Richard MacCutchan 8-Mar-24 12:47pm View

You do not need to call SetFocus before SetWindowText. But there is not enough information in your question to guess what is wrong.

Richard MacCutchan 8-Mar-24 3:53am View

See my updated Solution below.

Richard MacCutchan 7-Mar-24 11:14am View

Yes, I completely understand that. My point in posting this was to bring the issue to the OP's attention. If that is the sort of code that they later push into some large operational application, then all hell could break loose.

Richard MacCutchan 7-Mar-24 8:25am View

Thanks, it's not often that I see things before you.

Richard MacCutchan 7-Mar-24 4:16am View

Since you are calling perror even when no error occurred you are printing incorrect error messages. And most of those messages will be based on some random value in the error code variable.

Richard MacCutchan 6-Mar-24 13:33pm View

OK, then you need to put some logging messages into your code to get the information.

Richard MacCutchan 6-Mar-24 12:55pm View

Just because it compiles does not mean that the code does what you expect. Use the debugger to step through it so you can actually see where it is not updating values correctly.

Richard MacCutchan 6-Mar-24 11:49am View

stderr is an output stream managed by the shell. In normal circumstances it is printed on the terminal window. It is not clear what it has to do with the code you have shown above, or what you mean by, "retrieve".

The message is clear, but the reason can only be guessed. You need to talk to the writer of the original code, or the owners of the server system.

Richard MacCutchan 3-Mar-24 10:02am View

Again I refer you to the documentation for the callback: CreateStreamCallback Delegate (Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms) | Microsoft Learn[^].

Richard MacCutchan 2-Mar-24 4:44am View

The message suggests that either Documento or fileStream initialisations failed, and are therefor null. An easy thing to check with the debugger.

Very interesting, but do you have an actual question?

Richard MacCutchan 28-Feb-24 4:58am View

No, I don't think so, but I do think it should be c.executemany( .... Although, there is still the issue of using None for the first value.

Richard MacCutchan 28-Feb-24 4:54am View

Why are you using "None" for the first value in each set? Where is the definition of your student table?

Richard MacCutchan 27-Feb-24 12:49pm View

I have not used spring, but the key message would appear to be:

I just ran that code and it gave 5 as the answer.

Add some print statements so you can see the values being used as the code runs. Or just run it in the debugger.

There is no such thing as "digits" in floating point values*. That is only relevant when you display the number using one of the format patterns.

But what you are referring to are not arrays, they are strings. You have a single array of QStringList items. And each list contains a number of strings. So list_array[TEST] refers to one of the lists. And list_array[TEST][0] refers to the first string in that list. See QStringList Class | Qt Core 6.6.1[^] for full details.

You should not store dates as strings; use proper DateTime types.

Richard MacCutchan 22-Jan-24 4:24am View

You should not do that in WM_CREATE. As I have mentioned in a number of your other questions, you should do all screen displaying code in your WM_PAINT handler. And the size of the client window is returned in the PAINTSTRUCT structure after the call to BeginPaint, so you have all the relevant information to paint your client area. I am not sure why you need the dimensions of the scren or a bitmap of that size.

That will only work if list_array[index][0] is also a Qt array. If it is something else then you will need to use some other method that can understand the data structure.

Richard MacCutchan 19-Jan-24 12:36pm View

I suspect that part of your problem is that you are manipulating device contexts in different parts of the code. Move all the code that deals with display issue into the WM_PAINT handler. That is how I have always done it, and never had any similar issues to this problem.

Richard MacCutchan 19-Jan-24 12:30pm View

Lots of simple errors which you can easily correct by reading the code. You are also missing a main method, so I doubt this will even compile.

You cannot do that with the PRINTDLG structure and its associated system call. You need to use the PRINTDLGEXA structure (commdlg.h) - Win32 apps | Microsoft Learn[^] and the PrintDlgEx function (Windows) | Microsoft Learn[^].

Changing the source to "\"salam\"" will work. But as it stands the code is a bit of a mess.

tl;dr

Every instruction that addresses a memory location (including PUSH and POP) adds to memory traffic.

You need to use one of the Google API features; check the Google maps documentation.

Richard MacCutchan 12-Jan-24 9:12am View

Maybe because there is a bug in your code. Try running it in the debugger to find out what is going wrong.

Richard MacCutchan 11-Jan-24 15:26pm View

You need to provide more information. Where is this information coming from and what is it supposed to mean?

Richard MacCutchan 11-Jan-24 12:13pm View

No, because you are not following the rules for an owner drawn List control.

Richard MacCutchan 11-Jan-24 11:47am View

Well unless you explain the problem in proper detail there is nothing we can suggest.

Richard MacCutchan 11-Jan-24 11:26am View

See my answer below.

And as I already told you if you don't put text in the first column it will leave an empty space. And I ask again: what are you actually trying to do with this control?

Richard MacCutchan 11-Jan-24 9:40am View

Of course there is an empty space, that is what you asked it for. You need to explain exactly what you are trying to do here. Also, if you wish to reply to a comment then please use the Reply button above the message. That way I get a notification that you replied.

If you set the text to the null string as shown above it should work.

You do realise this question is almost 10 years old.

Why do you need the item text to be null?

Why do you need the item text to be null?

What sort of batch script are you referring to, and what do you want it to do? Most times you can do everything you need in the Python code.

Richard MacCutchan 8-Jan-24 12:07pm View

You have not provided anywhere near enough information about your problem. What is this data, where does it come from, what are you trying to do with it, what have you already tried, etc? Please use the Improve question link above, and add complete details of what is not working.

Richard MacCutchan 8-Jan-24 10:57am View

You need to provide much more detail about your problem. As it stands your question is too vague.

Richard MacCutchan 8-Jan-24 3:34am View

Since these are theoretical machines, it is up to you to decide the order. The article is just about the basic priciples of how such a machine deals with different operations.

Richard MacCutchan 7-Jan-24 12:37pm View

Thanks, and Happy New Year.

Richard MacCutchan 7-Jan-24 10:47am View

You need to provide much more information if you want help here.

I expect the only people who do know are the Windows developers themselves. You could always post your question on the Microsoft support forum.

Richard MacCutchan 5-Jan-24 11:30am View

Thanks, just what I thought. :)

It's quite possible that some Windows do not respond to such requests as thay are effectively system processes.

Richard MacCutchan 5-Jan-24 8:21am View

It was a serious point. But perhaps you did not bother reading it.

Richard MacCutchan 5-Jan-24 4:08am View

I am not an asp expert, but I think you may have mis-matched quotes in the OnClientClick attributes.

Richard MacCutchan 4-Jan-24 10:23am View

Which I already provided in my last reply.

Richard MacCutchan 4-Jan-24 10:12am View

Why have you changed the code to send CDRF_NEWFONT for every notification? Look at the example code that I have given the links for, and make sure you are sending the correct reponse at each paint stage.

Richard MacCutchan 4-Jan-24 9:16am View

See this article: Neat Stuff to Do in List Controls Using Custom Draw[^].

Richard MacCutchan 4-Jan-24 9:07am View

No, you return the status values in pResult, as you are already doing. But you need to ensure you return the correct notifications for the framework to process the control according to your settings, as I specified in my original post above.

Richard MacCutchan 4-Jan-24 6:31am View

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.

Richard MacCutchan 4-Jan-24 5:17am View

If you get an exception, or any error, then it is important to provide the complete text, and also the line of code where it occurs. As it stands it is difficult to figure out what the above code is supposed to be doing. For example, what is the data that appears in the rtbIncoming box and where does it come from?

Richard MacCutchan 3-Jan-24 12:40pm View

Sorry, we cannot guess what the JSON data contains.

Richard MacCutchan 3-Jan-24 12:24pm View

Please show the JSON data that causes the problem.

Richard MacCutchan 3-Jan-24 6:40am View

This is not an answer (to a 13 year old question). If you have a problem then open a proper question yourself.

Richard MacCutchan 2-Jan-24 12:52pm View

Check which flags are set when the dialog returns TRUE. If PD_PAGENUMS or PD_SELECTION is set then the nFromPage and nToPage fields give you the values. If neither of those flags is set then you should print all pages. The documentation for PRINTDLGA (commdlg.h) - Win32 apps | Microsoft Learn[^] shows this.

Richard MacCutchan 31-Dec-23 3:31am View

Please stop writing as little as possible. Show us the actual code in its proper context, and the complete text of all error messages.

Richard MacCutchan 30-Dec-23 7:46am View

What is the error message, and where is line 35?

Richard MacCutchan 29-Dec-23 10:50am View

I assume you need to use GTK's own thread library: GLib – 2.0: Threads[^].
