Hi,

i need to know a way to read the motherboard sensors (temp, speed...) using C++. Just like MBM.

Grateful!

Have you checked out the various WMI classes?

Why, especially when that's the most logical solution?

Because i wanna do something with the less requirements. Wmi does not work in win 95/98/ME. For that is necessary to install the resource.

Which means what exactly? What requirements?

Sure it does.

WMI is not integrated in win95/98/ME like is in winxp for example. It is necessary to install WMI resource on this case. I don't want this. I wanna to do some application in the lower level using C++. Do you know the software called MBM (motherboard monitor)? I wanna do something like that, but more simple.

I could use the MBM, but it would be a requirement also. I want that my application makes everything, understands?

Actually, it is. For Windows 95 OSR 2, Windows 98 or Windows NT v4.0, a WMI installation package can be downloaded from Microsoft.

I understand, but I do not know of a solution that meets that requirement.

Hi,

Is there a way to append text to a rich edit box without using SetSel/ReplaceSel? The problem is that the text is highlightable, and if the user is highlighting text, then receives a chat message, which runs in a separate thread, sometimes the mouse dragging will set the selection to within the chat history and replace the highlighted history instead of appending to the end of the editbox.

Thanks!

In that case you just have to ensure that all accesses to your rich edit box all happen on your main (GUI) thread. When you get data on your seperate thread, post a user defined message to your gui thread and have the handler of that message do the appending (remember to save and restore the current user selection).

Oh yeah.. I was thinking I'd still run into shared memory problems if I set up an event queue but if I just post a windows message I won't have to worry about memory locking or anything. Great, thanks!

Add handler for ON_COMMAND_RANGE depends on the ID receiving inside the function, you could handle it.
don't forget to specify the menu ID within the range

Sample from MSDN

// The code fragment below shows how to use ON_COMMAND_RANGE macro
// to map a contiguous range of command IDs to a single message 
// handler function (i.e. OnFileMenuItems() is the sample below). In 
// addition, it also shows how to use CheckMenuRadioItem() to check a 
// selected menu item and makes it a radio item.
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMainFrame, CFrameWnd)
   // ... 
   ON_COMMAND_RANGE(ID_FILE_MENUITEM1, ID_FILE_MENUITEM3, OnFileMenuItems)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

void CMainFrame::OnFileMenuItems(UINT nID)
{
   CMenu* mmenu = GetMenu();
   CMenu* submenu = mmenu->GetSubMenu(0);
   submenu->CheckMenuRadioItem(ID_FILE_MENUITEM1, ID_FILE_MENUITEM3, 
      nID, MF_BYCOMMAND);
}

Hello
sir i'm getting assertion error in my program.

actually this error comes in winocc.
here
ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd));

My Code is:-

void

CTESTsipXtapiDlg::handleOffering(SIPX_CALL hCall)
{

SetDlgItemText(IDC_STATIC_NEW_CALL,"New Incoming Call");

}

just i want to display this msg in any text box or in label control of Dialog.

My application is a Dialog Based Application.

thanks

It seems as if you call SetDlgItemText() before the window/control is created.
AFAIK, the earliest time you can (programmaticly) set text to a window is in OnInitDialog().

Amit Agarrwal26-Jun-06 3:18

26-Jun-06 3:18

hello

i cann't do it..

becoz when a call comes to my PC i have to show the caller id in it.
yes i'm feeling the same becoz when i trace it then i found that hWnd value is NULL.

plz tell me how to recify this error.

thanx

The simple solution would be to just do a null-check on the m_hWnd handle. If it is null, skip the set call. A more thorough solution might be to figure out why you are trying to set a window's text prior to creation to begin with. I've seen many people deal with communication-type code where they initialize the communications port (serial, ethernet, etc) in the application's InitInstance method and wonder why they have problems (a better solution in many cases is to do that initialization from the OnInitDialog/OnInitialUpdate method in the dialog or view class).

If you decide to become a software engineer, you are signing up to have a 1/2" piece of silicon tell you exactly how stupid you really are for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week

You can test ::IsWindow(m_hWnd) yourself. If ::IsWindow(m_hWnd) returns FALSE, then you can buffer the message(s). (Or write them to a file).
Then, in the OnInitDialog, you can update the window with the buffered messages.

But it seems a bit peculiar to me that the app exists and is running, but the window doesn't exist (yet) ... Confused | :confused:

hello

yes this is exactly i'm not getting if appication is running but the window does not exist at all.and hwnd=NULL.

My Application is a Dialog Based Application.

plz help me how to reinitialize the hwnd.

byee

Have a look at the response from Zac Howland. It should give you the solution to your problem.

Make sure the base implementation (of OnInitDialog()) has been called first. That's when the controls get created.

yes i have defined the OnintDialog() Before the function calling.

in my case when a call come to my PC then my sipx tapi event generate & its call the handleoffring function which is defined by me in a dialog class and in this function i get the caller id.

now i want to display this id in the text box that "this number is calling".

thats it.
Plz tell me the solution

thanx

The solution is to simply not update a control that does not exist. Check the control's window handle and act accordingly.
