While you speak, developpers are using C/C++ .NET and even assembly

I agree with navin's comment regarding MFC.
I have used, am using and will use the MFC for a long while to come, but I can see a point in the distant future where it may fall out of popularity with the programming masses as new development fads takes over.
Regarding VC++, I don't think you have anything to worry about. As far as I'm concerned, VC++ will always be around (OK, maybe not always, but for a loooong time). The libraries in use may vary from MFC, ATL, WTL or the .NET malarky, but the language itself will survive. Vive VC++!

I can't imagine coding without using the VS environment, so I guess I was specifically talking about VC++.

Yes I admit it. I am a programming spawn of the Microsoft generation.
I did try tinkering with the Mandrake version of Linux a few years ago, but it scared me so much that I have not touched it since.
Don't get me wrong though, I have no dislike either way, its just that all my time right now involves development and continual learning of Microsoft products.

I am making a Win32 project in VC++ v7. When I click on the executable, I want it to run in the task bar. How would I do this? Any help is appreciated.

Hi All
I am a fresher in C/C++, I want to read first 2 bytes from a BMP image, when i open the file in "rb" and use scanf to read first 2 bytes, I am unable to read. Can i know the reason.
Thnx in advance
regards

Off the top of my head,
scanf reads from stdin (e.g. Keyboard on a console
sscanf processes a given string.
fscanf reads from a FILE.
So you are probably using the wrong one!

Since i have two read two bytes from the file I have to use
fscanf

fscanf... The mysterious function 
If you just want to read 2 bytes I wouldn't use the fscanf function, just use the fread function:
BYTE bytes[2];<br />
fread(bytes, 1, 2, fileptr);
If you insist on using the fscanf function:
BYTE bytes[2];<br />
fscanf(fileptr, "%c%c", &bytes[0], &bytes[1]);
Best regards,

_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do??

Hi Reichi
Thnx for u'r solution, Actually i used fread to solve the problem but i was interested to know on what occasions do we use fscanf,one occasion as of i know is when u write a file and read it in the same order as u write. Is this the only occasions we use fscanf or is there any other use.
I thought fread takes more memory cycles so thought of using fscanf. So I went inside the fscanf function but could not make out it works, Now i found a solution i need not know
Thanx a lot for u'r help.
Regards

fscanf can be used for almost anything, reading single bytes, ints, whole strings, etc.
fread is MUCH faster than fscanf! When you use the fscanf function the program must first parse your format string before reading and storing the data! If you need speed, use fread.

I liked the last sentence
sounds like an ad:

hmm .. not sure I'd be using fscanf here .. you also havnt said 'what you wish to interpret the first two bytes as, ie a long, char values etc'
I dont have my dev machine up, but I guess what you're asking for is :-
char str [2];
fscanf (pFile, "%c%c", str);
however, I'd be more inclined to use fread(), here's a full example
int main () {
FILE * pFile;
long lSize;
char * buffer; // For two chars as in this example could just use
// static char buffer[2];
lSize = 2;
pFile = fopen ( "myfile.bmp" , "rb" );
if (pFile==NULL) exit (1);
// allocate memory to contain # chars we want
// bit of an overkill in this case
buffer = (char*) malloc (lSize);
if (buffer == NULL) exit (2);
// copy the file into the buffer.
fread (buffer,1,lSize,pFile);
// do something with buffer here
// terminate
fclose (pFile);
free (buffer);
return 0;
}

hi,
We have created an activex Ctrl using MFC.
It has serialize method in its COleControl derived class.
Now myActiveX control is inserted in a powerpoint presentation.
Whenever power point slideshow ends, then the serialize method is getting called.
How to avoid serialize method is getting called at the end of slide show mode?
I am trying by setting SetModifiedFlag(false) but no result.
pls help me.

Hello, Im wondering if anyone knows if its possible to get the fileversion over http on a file withouth having to download it?
I know I can do HttpQueryInfo HTTP_QUERY_LAST_MODIFIED but I would really like to get the fileversion, not just what the server thinks is the last modified date...
This is for automatically updating a local file btw... and I guess I could use a version file on the server to read from, but it would be so much smoother to just query the version directly kinda like what GetFileVersionInfo does but for files on the web...
the coolest would off course be if there was an API called GetInternetFileVersionInfo which could do it either via ftp or http protocol... 
anyway anyone?

I'm open to correction, but I'd have to say no.
The logic is fairly simple. The protocols are for fetching any old file. Whereas file version info
(as I understand you to mean) is only available for specific kinds of files. What is the version
info of a notepad file? a bitmap? etc.
One way around could be to have a server side page to return version info on specified files.
eg.
http://foo.bar/versioninfo.asp?file=\downloads\example.exe
could return version info for the specified file, or "Get lost, no version info here!" otherwise.
I hope my musings helped, rather than mislead!
Iain.

Dear Friends,
I've developed a software in Visual C++ (Dialog Based Application). Actually the purpose of this software is to make the database entry/view operations easy. There are in all 19 dialog boxes realted to various tables of database. The backend database is SQL Server.
The problem is that i am making this software for client and the client wants "report generation" in the form of print outs and eMails. The client given me samples of around 50 different reports 
Now i want to know that what strategy should i follow in order to make reports. Do i need Crystal Reports software. Is there any other easy way. Please suggest me something..

Hello,
I have a problem to show the source code in the calling stack window( ALT+7 ) in debug mode.
I use VC++ 6.0 on my Win98 laptop.
There is no source code displayed from MFC-functions and SDK functions in the calling stack window, although the correct directories are set in the option dialog of the VC++.
With the same VC++ project file (.dsp and .dsw ) I don't have this problems with my Win2000 PC.
I checked all directories and I reinstall VC++ some times, but I don't get the source code.
Which problem does my laptop have ?

Try reinstalling the latest service pack for DevStudio.
That should do the trick.
