Exactly what I want to do! Basically I want to read the same file twice. After the first read produces EOF, I want to go back to the start of the file. This does not work because the EOF flag is on. Is there a way to reset this flag. My temporary solution is to close the file after the first read, then re-open for teh second read.
Thanks

file.clear() clears all flags, then you should be able to use file.seekg(0, std::ios::beg) to seek back to start.

I have searched the forums and the question appears to have been asked many times, but never really answered, so I'll try again.
I have a CDialog-derived class, within which I need to scroll a portion of the dialog's contents. My particular case is that the dialog box size has to be fixed because of a low screen resolution on the target PC, but the contents are variable so a number of controls are added dynamically at run-time.
I have placed a vertical scrollbar control on the dialog resource, but I am having trouble making everything work together to allow the controls to be scrolled up and down without affecting the remaing area of the dialog (which contains OK and Cancel buttons in a fixed position).
Presumably I need to override OnVScroll, but what needs to go in it?

I'd use sub-dialogs with DS_CONTROL style bit set. If you only want to scroll a portion of main dialog, use two sub-dialogs. One would have scrollbar, the other (containing controls like edits, chkboxes etc.) would be scrolled.

Any chance of a sample app. I'm not quite sure what you mean?
Is the sub-dialog placed on the main dialog like a control, presumably with normal scroll facilities and all of the required controls?
|
|
|
|

First, try to create subdialog without any scrolling. It will help to understand how the DS_CONTROL style works.
1) in main dialog insert the *static* control in place where you want the subdialog. Ensure it has an unique ID. The control will be replaced by subdialog at runtime. That's because you can't use Dialog Editor to draw a subdialog.
2) create new dialog template without title bar. On 'Styles' tab select 'Child' from 'Style' list and set border to 'None'. On 'More styles' tab check 'visible' and 'control'. Add some edits, checkboxes, etc.
3) create the MFC class for the subdialog - CSubdialogWithContents, for example. Add the following member function:
BOOL CSubdialogWithContents::Create(CWnd* pParent, UINT nTemplate, UINT nStatic)
{
if (CDialog::Create(nTemplate, pParent))
{
CWnd *pWnd=pParent->GetDlgItem(nStatic);
SetWindowPos(pWnd, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE);
CRect rc;
pWnd->GetWindowRect(&rc);
pParent->ScreenToClient(&rc);
pWnd->DestroyWindow();
MoveWindow(&rc);
::SetWindowLong(*this, GWL_ID, nStatic);
return TRUE;
}
return FALSE;
}
4) make a CSubdialogWithContents variable a data member of your main dialog class. In CMainDialog::OnInitDialog, call CSubdialogWithContents::Create (after CDialog::OnInitDialog).
If everything works OK, you should see your subdialog as a part of the main dialog. Subdialog controls should be visible, and tab key should work without any problems.
To implement a scrollable subdialog, place it in another subdialog with a vert scrollbar. CSubdialogWithContents will be a child window of subdialog with scroll - its contents will be clipped by parent. All you have to do is call CSubdialogWithContents::MoveWindow in response to CSubdialogWithScrollbar::OnVScroll.

Cool! And also about the most bizarre UI I've ever heard of. Nothing worse than a computer illiterate user group who are also too cheap to upgrade their hardware. Now everyone is going to want sliding dialogs within dialogs!

It's not that they're too cheap to upgrade their hardware, it's just that the operating environment does not allow for a large monitor and so the only usable screen resolution is 640x480.

Hi I think if you are using MFC you can simpy use the function LineScroll
with a number greater that the required and you will automatically scroll
to the last line.
But if you are not using MFC, you can try
the following
mesg
::SendMessage(m_hWnd, EM_LINESCROLL, nChars, nLines);
use the nChars as zero and the nLines as a great number as possible

Here is one method to append text and updating the scrollbar. Suppose you have a CEdit named m_wndText:
int nSel = m_wndText.GetWindowTextLength();
m_wndText.SetSel(nSel, nSel, TRUE);
m_wndText.ReplaceSel("Add this text");
nSel = m_wndText.GetWindowTextLength();
m_wndText.SetSel(nSel, nSel);
This is usually faster than getting the text with GetWindowText(), appending a string and then updating the entire textbox with SetWindowText().

Hi,
I have to create a application that works almost like a SlideShow that is available in WindowsMe ( in Pictures Folder ), except that I have to kept the pictures in exe so no one can copy it in addition I also want to disable the ( PrintScreen ) & ( Alt+Print Screen ) to disable capturing of the pictures.
So the target picture in full screen with a Next, Previous, First & Last & Exit buttons in a corner of a screen. I can put the Images in the Resource tab & then call them using the Image Control. Am I going the right way.
Any help according to this is appreciated.

Hi try to look into Global Hooks,
which can trap windows keyinput.
Like for ex you might have seen CBT
and CB-Training programs, which do not seen to repond
to the standard windows keyinput also.
You can get a Global Hook and trap the keyinput and
not forward the mesgs.

And what about the app, which stays in memory, and every 5 secs gets active window and make copy of its dc to bmp and to file on disk? No user interaction - but works. I think that there is no way to totally block such possibility.
Do not put images (in bmp/gif/iff/jpeg/... format into the resource, cause many application (for example MsDev) can easily read resources from executable. Open exe as resource, and then export what just You want.
To workaround above problem, You must compress/encrypt or in other way alter images. Do not use commonly known algos, like zip and rar.
Hope this helps

I am currently experiencing problems with the rich edit control and
RTF text in piece of software I've written.
I have a Rich Edit View, using version 1 of the Rich Edit Control, for
display various pieces of RTF text. The text is edited via a dialog.
Running under Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me and Windows NT 4.0 I
have experienced no problems. However under Windows 2000 the RTF text
becomes corrupt when displayed. The text in the edit dialog is OK. It
seems that the font definitions in the display are being switched
round in 2000. For example,
in everything else f0 may be Arial, f1 roman, f2 symbol. But under
2000, it switches the number used for symbol, so I end up with
something like this - f0 Arial, f1 symbol, f2 roman. This causes the
text to be displayed wrong.
As far as I can see I have 4 options:
1. Use a newer version of the Rich Edit Control, but this might have
unwanted side effects on the other platforms.
2. Release a special Windows 2000 version of the software.
3. Write some kind of parser that will reset all the fonts every time.
4. Abandon RTF and use an HTML view control, but this would require
major rewrites.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrew Sage

Hello,
I would like to know how to assign "Ctrl + tab" to change pages in my Tab Ctrl.
Thanks for help.

Hi,
You can trap the WM_CHAR messages in the Dialog's you are
using for the Tabs and then if the char matches the 'TAB' key
you can test for the presense for Ctrl key being down using the
GetKeyState.
If the key is pressed you call a specified funciton such as (ex)ShowNextPage
in the Tab Ctrl to show the Next Dialog.

I made myself a MFC Extention DLL and I seem to be having a couple of pointer problems, event though I don't know what it is exactly. Perhaps you've got an idea...
The situation is as follows....
In-dll functions:
CString Trim(CString sInput);
CString EatString(CString * pInput1, CString sInput2);
CMyOwnObject()::CMyOwnObject(CString sInput); // constructor
Now, this is what happens when I call the in-dll functions from outside the dll:
CString s = Trim(" my string "); // this works fine!
CString s2 = EatString(&s, " "); // this gives a crash inside EatString at the point where I try to set the value of s (like this: *s = "new string");
CMyOwnObject * pNew = new CMyOwnObject("new"); // This gives a crash at the point where the constructor ends... for SOME reason it goes into the desctructor of CString (probably for "new") and there it crashes on FreeData() )
I don't want to completely rewrite all my code to BSTR's and so for the moment. Is there another way to fix this? (Trim works just fine!)

Are you absolutely sure that your DLL uses shared MFC? Set dll as active project, go to Project->Settings->C/C++ and check if you have _AFXDLL in the 'Preprocessor definitions'.
Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com.pl

Just checked it, but the _AFXDLL wasn't in there... So I put it there, but that didn't seem to have any effects on the result (even after clean rebuilding a couple of times)...
I just created the project with the classwizard, selecting an extention DLL... And everything works, except this... It crashes on the destructor of the input string!
I found that putting LPCTSTR in the header, instead of CString, resolves the problem, but then I have to rewrite all my headers to use LPCTSTR... And what do I do with CString * then? I can't use LPCTSTR *, right?
