For some reason "status" field of Win32_Thread I am getting ThreadID. According to MS it should be status there like "OK", "Error", "Unknown", but I get in BSTR thread ID number. Just surprise is correct?
Thanks.
Alex.

I'm not sure where else to ask this so hear goes.
I have a file of about 14k in size. Its an Altera file to program an fpga.
I need to essentially split the file into chunks of 64 bytes, so I can use a specific function to send it through a usb device to our fpga.
Soooo how can I split a file of any size into chunks of 64 bytes?

|
|
By using an ifstream and an ofstream, just read 64 bytes at a time, and write off to files of your choosing.

How can I make a C++/MFC (Version 6) application use the "Windows classic" look when running under Windows XP?
Thanks,

You shouldn't need to do anything special to make this happen.

But when I run the application on XP, it uses the XP look: Blue shaded scroll bars (instead of the classic gray), faint group-box lines, etc...
It's possible to force an application to use the XP style. What I need is the opposite: Forcing the application to use the classic style.

Does the .exe contain an embedded manifest resource or an accompanying manifest file? See this[^] link (specifically the topic "To create a manifest and enable your application to use visual styles").

Thanks for the link, Ravi, but this seems to show how to force the application to use the XP visual style, which is the opposite of what I'm trying to do. Do you know how to modify this to use the Windows classic style?
Thanks,

Hi All,
Ok, this should be easy to figure out, but I can't seem to google a good answer. I need a way to programmatically discover the path to the current user's desktop. Something similar to GetWindowsDirectory() or GetSystemDirectory(), I guess.
The only think I could find was VBScript stuff like WshShell.SpecialFolders(...) or using the Windows Shell COM stuff.
There must be a simpler way to do this in C++, no?
TIA,
Pete

How about SHGetFolderPath(..., CSIDL_DESKTOPDIRECTORY, ...)?

I have a xml file that I need to copy to a folder near the $(TargetDir)
the custom build "Command Line" looks like this :
mkdir $(TargetDir)\..\MyFolder
copy $(ProjectDir)\myFile.xml $(TargetDir)\..\MyFolder\
and the "Output Line"
$(TargetDir)\..\MyFolder\myFile.xml
The problem is that everytime I execute ( F5 ) my program from VS.net, it asks me to "rebuild" that one file.
I understand that if a file is modified it should be compiled ( in my case copied ), but that file has not been modified for a couple of days.
Thanks.

I want to write a spy program that will catch all messages of a window that I will choose... I want my program to return the ID's of the edit boxes, buttons, etc... Maybe anyone knows where I can start?
Thanks in advance!
Have a nice day!

Do you mean something like the Spy++ utility?

Help! I'm using MS Vis Studio 6 (with Vis C++ 6) and I don't really know where to begin. Does anyone know how I might make a simple script that would retrieve any given webpage (by inputting the URL) as some sort of string--like a CString, for instance. I am also behind a proxy, so I'm hoping that either whatever commands you give me automatically adjust to proxy settings or the code takes it into account (e.g. a place for inputting the proxy's IP and Port). Any advice is welcome. Thanks!

Hello,
I have a problem with my code that follows, everything works aye okay until I´m shutting the application down. My desktop resolution is then being set back to 1024x768x16 60Hz, and I have no idea why.
I´m aware that it´s quite alot of text to go through, but I would highly appreciate any suggestions on what might be wrong.
Edit:
The problem does not occur when I erase my ProcessIdle() function.
How come?
Thanks!

Feels good to answer myself
well, the problem is solved, all I had to do was to put DestroyWindow(hWnd) UnregisterClass(CLASS_NAME, hInstance) in the end of WinMain().

having trouble reading what i have written in binary. i do beleive it is writing correctly (because there is a binary value in the text file it creates) but having trouble getting the binary value back into an array of 0's and 1's that i can look at.
well, the code i has seems to give me back all 1's no matter what.
please, if anyone knows about binary i/o!
thank you
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
void main()
{
char textbit[8];
ifstream textfile;
textfile.open("bin.txt");
ofstream binaryfile ("realbin.bin", ios::out|ios::binary|ios::ate);
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) //get the 8 bytes from the plain text file
textbit[i] = textfile.get();
textfile.close();
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) //output them to screen
cout<
|
|
|
|
|
ok well i guess i got the i/o working
but now im kind of stuck
where i have
for (int x =0; x <2; x++)
that runs the loop 2 times and loads 2 8bit values into the binary file.
but i want this loop to run for the length of the input file.
whats the easy way to do that?
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
void main()
{
char rtextbit[8];
char binarybyte =0; //chars are 8 bits 0 means 00000000
char textbit[8];
ifstream textfile;
textfile.open("bin.txt");
ofstream binaryfile ("realbin.txt", ios::out|ios::binary);
for (int x =0; x <2; x++)
{
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) //get the 8 bytes from the plain text file
textbit[i] = textfile.get();
cout<
