Ah. I see.
All you need is to convert your calculated integer into a string. One way you can do that is with the CString Format() method:
CString str;
int someInt = 1000;
str.Format(TEXT("%i"),someInt);
// send your formatted string to the edit control

I put together a program which asks for the login name
and passcode and knows an internet address.
Any idea on how to run something like Internet Explorer
in the background and login for the individual and go
get information. I have seen other programs that do this;
they login and then report back certain information. It
doesn't seem that difficult but I hit a big road block.
Any ideas any one can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Danielle (an overworked graduate student)

u might want to think about implementing the http GET and POST methods in a c++ app that runs in the system tray for example ... then its fairly easy to do all the stuff u want
"there is no spoon"
biz stuff about me

You can:
1) Search info on msdn for automation.
Then you can control your I-net explorer.
you can "feed" data to the I-net explorer with GET (via URL) or POST (if I'm not mistaken data in HTML header section)
Note: This is possible, but not easy.
2) if you know MFC (or have Visual Studio) maybe you can find functions there.
Good luck.

is it possible to check a variable's type?
e.g.
if m_variable is equal to CString, DoSomething()...
|
|
|
|
|
if ((dynamic_cast<CString*>(m_variable))!=0)
{
DoSomething();
}
hope it helps
|
|

|

unfortunately that didn't work.
error C2682: cannot use dynamic_cast to convert from 'class CString' to 'class CString *'
and const_cast didn't work either (not that I fully understand either of them  )
changing CString to double didn't help - apparently it's not possible to dynamic_cast double*
anymore ideas ?
|
|
|
|
|
what if you remove that * with dynamic_cast?
|
|
|
|
|
no success
CString m_variable = "test";
if ((dynamic_cast<cstring>(m_variable))!=0)...
error C2680: 'class CString' : invalid target type for dynamic_cast
|
|
|
|
|
You have to do this way:
CString m_Str = "test";<br />
if(dynamic_cast<CString*>(&m_Str))<br />
DoSomething();

that didn't work either.
i tried:
CString m_Str = "test";
if(dynamic_cast<cstring*>(&m_Str)) TRACE("yes !\n")
else TRACE("no !\n");
error C2683: dynamic_cast : 'CString' is not a polymorphic type
do i have to declare it as a polymorphic type?
|
|
|
|

I typed up a reply explaining that I'm pretty certain you need to qualify the dynamic_cast in this case (i.e. add <CString *>), but that won't fix your problem here.
CString has no virtual functions (apparently) and as such, is not polymorphic, which means you cannot use dynamic_cast on it.
Use typeid instead. It should theoretically be faster anyway.

Don't know...
Regarding to typename CString specifically, it works well with my VC++.NET v7.0. I had tested the code snippet before I posted the previous post. And the code compiles well without any error / warning!
Maxwell Chen

|

Hmm. You're right. Your code's working on VS.NET2003 as well. Perhaps it's an incompatability between CString implementations? Or maybe he's using VC6, and it's failing to match the standards in this area.
|
|
|
|
|
In VC++6, it's an ordinal class CString.
In VC++7.x, it's a class template CStringT<typename N>. And typedefed CStringT<char> as CString.
Maybe that's the cause... 
Maxwell Chen
|
|
|
|
|
Apparently so. I guess I'm not quite clear on what counts as a polymorphic type, though. Maybe templates are special or something, but I couldn't find any virtual functions in CString or its superclass. It seems to me that it still shouldn't qualify as a polymorphic type, and therefore dynamic_cast shouldn't work.
|
|
|
|
|
yes i am using vc++6.0
i will try the typeid method once i re-write all my lost codes 
My initial intention was to come up with a global class that can convert
a variable of type A to type B at run-time.
|
|
|
|
|
Remember to turn on the RTTI (run-time type information) option in VC++ project setting.
Maxwell Chen
|
|

|

aaaaahh...
thats what they mean by run time type information !!!
haha.
|
|
|
|

What vc 7.x is doing seems more logical than vc 6.0 ...
it seems to be checking the "from" and "to" types!
class A {
int a;
};
class B: public A {
int b;
};
/***** break ****/
B b;
if (dynamic_cast<B *>(&b)) {
printf("OK");
}
/***** above will work in vc 7.x but not vc 6.0 */
/***** below will NOT work in both vc 7.x & vc 6.0 */
B b;
A *p_a = &b;
if (dynamic_cast<B *>(p_a)) {
printf("OK");
}

If you already have the variable, as opposed to a pointer or a reference to a variable, you already know the type of the variable, so I'm not quite clear on why you even need to check this at all.
If you can post a code snippet showing what exactly you are trying to do, I'm sure someone could give you an exact answer. At least tell us what m_variable is declared to be? Is it a CString, or a pointer to a CString, or a void pointer, or something else?

my source file is gone ! (not in Recycle Bin, My Computer, anywhere...)
for some reason, my source file has disappeared (although the header file is still there). Could it be because I wrote
#include "MyGlobals.h" in stdafx.h ?
I've been using extern to make everything in MyGlobals.cpp available
everywhere - and it worked so well for so long... up until I started messing around with dynamic_cast. 
has this happened to anyone before ?
 (in extreme doh)

I'd say run a system-wide search for the file just to make sure you didn't accidentally drag-and-drop it into another folder somehow.
If that doesn't turn it up, it's probably gone for good. I suppose you could try some file-recovery software. But I've had little success with that in the past.
I'd also run a system-wide virus scan. If it's really gone, something deleted it. It's unlikely that it's a Windows or hardware problem. (Might be worth checking the event viewer in Administrative Tools, though, just in case.)
After that, I guess you get to start over if you didn't recover it. Sucks, but it happens. (This is why everyone talks about backups, though I don't believe most actually do so on a regular basis.)

I used to zip my source code files (removed those .ncb, .opt, .plg, .\Debug, etc.) with separate file names (timestamp + hint) quite often to prevent such disasaters.
