I have written a MFC application program. Now, I need to create a link between the program to PCI 8255 to printer port. How should i do it and what DLL library should i download?
My hardware consists of sensors to send a signal to PCI 8255, then through parallel port to the software. Then the software will generate a word to be display on the LCD display of my hardware(not my computer monitor). How should I do it?
Help is apprciated..thanks

Hi all,
The code below, works fine in debug version, but gives warning in "Release/Use MFC in Static Library/Code Generation/Multithreaded" configuration.
This is the warning message:
warning C4541: 'typeid' used on polymorphic type 'class CView' with /GR-; unpredictable behavior may result
void CMainFrame::OnUpdateFileClose(CCmdUI* pCmdUI) <br />
{<br />
BOOL bCanBeClosed = TRUE ;<br />
<br />
if(IsAnyChildWindowOpen())<br />
{<br />
CMDIChildWnd *pChildWnd = MDIGetActive() ;<br />
CView *pView = pChildWnd->GetActiveView() ;<br />
<br />
if(typeid(*pView) == typeid(CMyView1) ||<br />
typeid(*pView) == typeid(CMyView2)||<br />
typeid(*pView) == typeid(CMyView3) )<br />
bCanBeClosed = FALSE ;<br />
}<br />
pCmdUI->Enable(IsAnyChildWindowOpen() && <br />
bCanBeClosed) ;<br />
}
Kindly suggest me a solution. I am using VC6.0/Win2000.
Thanks in advance,

Edit the project settings for the release configuration and replace the /GR- option with /GR.

This is a misuse of typeid. You should use dynamic_cast instead.

Most programming guidelines would go even further - Don't misuse dynamic_cast; use virtual functions instead.

i.e.
class CBaseView : public CView
{
public:
virtual bool CanClose() const = 0;
};
class CMyView1 : public CBaseView
{
public:
virtual bool CanClose() const
{
return false;
}
};
class CMyOtherViews : public CBaseView
{
public:
virtual bool CanClose() const
{
return true;
}
};
pView->CanClose();</code>
This is basic OO design and good use the C++'s features.

Hi Stephen, Maxwell...
Thanks a lot for your immediate reply. It helped me to solve the problem.

I believe it's telling you that the .rdata sections will increase in size, which may or may not be desirable. It might also have something to do with RTTI.

While being handy and nice, the MFC CHotKeyCtrl class does act weird sometimes, for example, it does not recognize the "space" key, instead, it rejects the keystroke and cleans all existing contents just like I pressed the "backspace" key. Now the funny thing is that, if I set the "space" key programmatically m_wndHotkey1.SetHotkey(VK_SPACE, 0); it will work, just that it cannot be specified by user input.
Unfortunately I really want the "space" key to be one of the configurable hotkeys in my application. Do I have a way to work around this problem? Thank you.

Try with:
UnregisterHotKey(...)
m_hotkey1.GetHotKey(...)
...
RegisterHotKey(...)
m_hotkey1.SetHotKey(...)
RegisterHotKey modifier flags defined in "CommCtrl.h" and "WinUser.h" are not same.
The values for fsModifiers are defined in "WinUser.h".

Hi,
I would like to add drag/drop function to the CTreeCtrl class, just as the
Resource tree in Visual C++ environment. Are there any examples?
Thanks.

Hi, friends,
I used to integrate the simulink package to my project, that is, I opened a
Simulink window and moved the window to the related view, assumed to be the CMHCSimPlatformView, the codes are referred to as follows:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
void CMHCSimPlatformView::OnStartMatlabEngine()
{
...
m_hSimulink = ::FindWindow(NULL,"Project_1 ");
if(::IsWindow(m_hSimulink))
{
//Set the CMHCSimPlatformView is the parent window for the simulink one
::SetParent(m_hSimulink,this->GetSafeHwnd());
CWnd * pWnd = NULL;
pWnd = FromHandle(m_hSimulink);
CRect rect;
GetClientRect(&rect);
//move the simulink window to the related area, that is to the
//client area of the CMHCSimPlatformView.
pWnd->MoveWindow(&rect,false);
//delete the catpion of the simulink interface
pWnd->ModifyStyle(WS_CAPTION|WS_BORDER,0);
//delte the system menu of the simulink interface
pWnd->SetMenu(NULL);
//delete the system toolbar of the simulink interface
HWND handToolbar = ::FindWindowEx(m_hSimulink,NULL,_T ToolbarWindow32"),NULL);
CWnd* pToolWnd;
pToolWnd = FromHandle(handToolbar);
pToolWnd->ShowWindow(FALSE);
CFrameWnd * pFrame=(CFrameWnd *)AfxGetMainWnd();
pFrame->GetActiveFrame()->UpdateWindow ();
UpdateData(true);
}
...
}
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
where, Project_1 is the name of a simulink file opened before, and m_hSimulink is a variable of HWND.
Surely, the simulink window was moved to the CMHCSimPlatformView client area when the above codes are executed. However, after later opertions, the simulink window was often covered with the CMHCSimPlatformView window.
 How to ensure that the simulink window always stays on the top ?and how to
change the simulink window according to the CMHCSimPlatformView area?
Regards.

I want to add ZoomIn/ZoomOut in my MFC Application, works on text and image, just like MSWORD, how can I get this??
thanks for your response

MM_ISOTROPIC will get you zoom with minimal effort. You'll have to work a little though to get an app like MSWORD. I can't help you there.
|
|

|

Here's a little to get you started. Start a new MFC/SDI app and plop this stuff in the appropriate locations. Set up menu/toolbar buttons for the zoomin/zoomout. Add some drawing code to your OnDraw and you should find that the drawing is fit_to_width in the view and it should be fit to width when printing. The rest is up to you. have fun...
(Let me know if I missed something)

really appreciate for your answer.
I add function TextOut in CMyView::OnDraw(), when I clicked ZoomIn, the view extended it's size, but the text in view still keeped it's size.
should I add some other code?
|
|
|
|
|
I get it!
firt time I failed because I used Textout function without creating a CFont.
bob16972,thank you very much!!

google offers a set of commands, such as link, pagerank, which can be used on google web-page.
my question is:
how to develop a VC program which uses google commands to retrieve google info of these commands?
any links, sample or comments?
thx

Hi all,
Can Windows Media Player play from a buffer instead of a file?
Thanks!
Harshita
|

I suspect it can render from an IStream interface. If this is the case all you have to do is implement an IStream that gets its data from a buffer. CreateStreamOnHGlobal and friends may be of interest.

Thanks for your reply!
I have implemented an IStream that gets data from a buffer but I do not understand to which Media Player API should I feed this input?
I had gone through ReadFromStream sample of WMF 9 SDK. But, this sample takes an input from a file instead of IStream!
It would be great if you could provide some guideline. Thank again!
