No, the compiler error is due to the four parameters
used in MessageBox. It seems that i must include some
hearder files or Lib?

Maybe "afxwin.h".

If you are calling the message box from inside a CWnd dervied class then you don't need the NULL. It uses the current CWnd object for the parent window.
However you can use the same call by using ::MessageBox(NULL, str, szMsg, MB_OK) which calls the default API version.

Hi,
is there an easy solution to add music playback to a demo? I think about playing an OGG (or MP3). It would be great if I can name a file and say start, stop or control volume.... DLL or source code.

For playing MP3 check this:

hey guys/gals ,
Actually i am animating the window .when thw window is shown there is some text displayed in it which is not underlined and when the mouse (leave) moves the window i want the text to be underlined.
Actually i am getting the mouse leave event but dont understand why the text is not able to remove the underline part. If any body possibly can help me .

How are you handling the painting. Does the paint function get called in the mouse leave event?
Posting the portion of the code that is giving you problems would be a great help.

What is the delete-function for memory allocated by GlobalAllocPtr?
tnx.

Could it be GlobalFreePtr? I don't find any docs about these macros on the msdn (tell something new  ).

GlobalFreePtr
Note that if you use Win32 there is really no need to use this. The Win32 memory archetecture does not keep a separate global heap. LocalAlloc and GlobalAlloc are the same, and both malloc and new eventually calls a similar function called HeapAlloc.

But is it harmless if you do use it?

Yes, but it is only included for Win16 compability. It is a macro for allocating memory and locking the handle, which is not nessicary in Win32. Unlike Win16 memory allocation methods, Win32 methods have very few efficiency differences.
MSDN says that if you decide to use GlobalAllocPtr, GlobalFreePtr should be used to release the memory. This is probably just for backward compability, but better safe than sorry...

It's really strange when your application works perfect under debug version, and later when you switch to Release it crashes. Here is how it happens.
1) I use CreateProcess to start a program and wait untill it ends.
CreateProcess of course crashes under Win2k/XP.
2) Then I switch to ShellExecute. Same thing happens.
3) I don't want to use WinExec!
So what's the difference between WinExec/ShellExecute/CreateProcess, and if you can provide some working code with theese functions
Regards,
Deian

It is not surprising at all.
In dubug mode when you are using arrays or strings the compiler can reserve up to 16 bytes more that are actually needed. If you then write past the end of the memory and are still within that 'safe' area you will not have a problem. In release mode however even writing one byte past the end can cause a crash.
I would also take a careful look for memory and resource leaks some of which only cause an oject dump in debug mode but crash in release mode.
Happy programming!!

Check out this article
It will not tell you what is going on withe CreateProcess and ShellExecute but it will give you an idea about the differences between Release mode and Debug mode

Hi Deian,
Take a look at Surviving the Release Version.
Good luck!

Hi everyone!
I have to add an en-/decryption-algorithm into an (already existing) image processing application which uses the CImgEdit control by Kodak for displaying TIFF images. In order to implement the algorithm on the images I need direct access to the image data.
It would be easy to en-/decrypt the whole TIFF file. But due to reasons beyond my influence ONLY the image itself should be en-/decrypted, so that an encrypted TIFF file can be opened with any TIFF viewer but pixel-waste is all that is displayed... 
Another point is, that I'm not allowed to write the decrypted image data onto disc but have to do any decryptions in memory solely.
Many thanx to anyone who can help me with this problem.
Best regards,
Andreas
P. S. I'm new at CodeProject and very hopeful someone will provide me the help I need

Hello guys, I'm experiencing a strange behaviour in one of my programs. I use mutex to prevent two copies of my program running at the same time. Under win 9x/Me works fine, but under Win2k and XP don't. Any ideas why? Any advice, code sample or link appreciated
|
|
|
|
|
Actually there should be no reason why it should not work.
You could post the code snippet, that would be more helpful
to see your problem

|

Thanks for the reply . I'm not currently at home, so I can't post the code today. But the method is the following:
declare a mutex, try to open it, if it's not there than this is the only copy -> create a mutex -> release it on exit, if the mutex is there, exit

Hi Deian, i have no clue about your problem (too little information).
But it seems like your function is trying to do the same as CreateMutex which delivers a named mutex, if the object allready exists then you get that object, if not, the system creates a new object and that is the one you get.
CreateMutex is the function you should use to initialize a mutex, the description you gave is NOT threadsafe (another thread could create the mutex in between "try to open it, if it's not there than this is the only copy -> create a mutex").
"It could have been worse, it could have been ME!"
