Hello,
I want to change the background colour of CStatic box.
The CStatic Box is on a CMDIChildWnd and not on a dialog.
I tried by calling GetDC() of CStatic and then call SetBkColour().But it seems the DC handle is not got properly with GetDC().
But CStatic->SetFont() works properly.
If I want to change the background colour Why the windows static styles don't work while creating the CStatic windows (i.e SS_BLACKRECT, SS_WHITERECT etc)
Regards
Pritha

Hello,
Still the background colour has not changed .I really don't understand how can an easy task of changing colours can be so difficult.Please take a look at my class and suggest me the possible errors. Sorry for the trouble.
My class is like this.
Class TableFrame : public CMDIChildWnd
{
Public :
Void PrintHeading();
Private :
Vector<CStatic*> Heading;
Protected :
afx_msg LRESULT ONCTLCOLORSTATIC(WPARAM wParam,LPARAM lParam);
};
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(TableFrame, CMDIChildWnd)
//{{AFX_MSG_MAP(TableFrame)
ON_MESSAGE(WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC, ONCTLCOLORSTATIC)
//}}AFX_MSG_MAP
END_MESSAGE_MAP()
Void TableFrame ::PrintHeading()
{
int x=0;
CFont* m_pFont;
LOGFONT LogFont;
memset(&LogFont, 0x00, sizeof(LogFont));
strcpy(LogFont.lfFaceName, _T("MS Sans Serif"));
LogFont.lfHeight = 12;
m_pFont = new CFont;
m_pFont->CreateFontIndirect(&LogFont);
SetFont(m_pFont);
for(int i=0;i<m_TableDoc.GetmDataFields().size();++i)
{
CStatic* Static = new CStatic;
CString String = ColumnHead[i];
x = i*(COLUMNSPACE + 100);
CRect Rect(x,0,x+100,20);
Static->Create(String, WS_VISIBLE, Rect, this,i);
Heading.push_back(Static);
}
}
LRESULT TableFrame::ONCTLCOLORSTATIC(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
HDC hDC = (HDC)wParam;
::SetTextColor(hDC, RGB(0x00,0x00,0xFF)); // text color bright blue
::SetBkColor(hDC, RGB(0xFF,0x00,0x00)); // text background color
return (LPARAM)(HBRUSH)hbr; // control background
}
Regards
Thanks

Is hbr brush is properly initialised and lifetime of the object is valid?
if you want the background of CStatic and Text Background same then set the text background to transparent mode
::SetBkMode(hDC, TRANSPARENT); // SetBkColor(hDC, ...

Does your ONCTLCOLORSTATIC() get called?

Hello,
Thanks for your replies.
The ONCTLCOLORSTATIC()was not called when I debugged.
How do I call it?

You don't. It gets called by the framework.

for eg if i give 3 it has to generate binary states in sorting order in terms of no of 1's

I got the following inline assembly code.
__asm {
MOV ECX, 0E2h
RDMSR
AND AX, 0BFF7h
WRMSR
}I have to port this to x64 code which does not allow inline assembly. What intrinsic functions should I use? Thanks!

Do you mean that I won't need to worry about the MOV ECX and AND AX instructions? And __rdmsr and __wrmsr do that for me?
What about the size in x64?
In my original code (x86), does it only write back 16 bits (AX)? Or the whole EAX (32 bits)?
With __wrmsr, it writes 64 bits at a time?! Should I take care of anything in addition?

"For more information, see the AMD documentation" from msdn
I was quickly seeing some documents I cannot find the MSR index equals E2h.
AFAIU, Three registers affects ECX, EAX, EDX.
The contents of ECX selects the MSR to be addressed by the
RDMSR and WRMSR instruction. The EDX and EAX registers contain the MSR values to be read or written; EDX—Upper 32 bits of MSR, EAX—Lower 32 bits of MSR. All MSRs are 64 bits wide. reference[^]
It seems valid fields in EAX for each MSR differs and you need to refer specifications, may be in your orginal code 16bit AX is masked and written back depends on the MSR on index E2h, I think intrinsic functions reads/writes the complete 64bit you need to take care it. I cannot comment more as i don't use .

Thanks for your great explanations! And please also refer to my reply to Mike (LINK[^]).

Your original code always reads the whole 64-bit MSR into EDX:EAX and writes EDX:EAX into the 64-bit MSR. There are no partial reads and writes.
I don't know what you were trying to achieve with the original code, though, as there is no 0E2h model-specific register on Intel processors.
A literal translation would be
__int64 val = __rdmsr(0xe2);
val &= 0xBFF7;
__writemsr(0xe2, val); That will work on both x86 and x64 processors.

The code in my OP (yes just four lines) came from the system ODM. I am doing the driver installer of card reader for certain upcoming new model of Gateway laptop. Due to some hardware reason, I have to disable the CLKRUN of Intel Device ID 2919 chip. So I made a helper utility to be invoked by the installer during driver installation. But before trying to disable CLKRUN, it has to disable the "Deep C4" of that Intel CPU (I did not ask), otherwise Windows (XP and Vista, 32- and 64-bit) freezes right away!
The code is to disable "Deep C4". It is working well under Vista 32-bit. I was going to make the 64-bit version today.
Thanks to your great help! I will try it next week.

I think, a minor adjustment is required for Mike's code in order to protect high order 48 bits.
<br />
__int64 val = __rdmsr(0xe2);<br />
val &= 0xffffffffffffbff7;<br />
__writemsr(0xe2, val);
High order bits should remain unchanged as in the original code below.
__asm {<br />
MOV ECX, 0E2h<br />
RDMSR<br />
AND AX, 0BFF7h<br />
WRMSR<br />
}

It seems silly that they took it away as an option.
Is that just Microsoft taking inline assembly away or is that for most 64-bit compiler manufacturers?

Inline assembly is a real pain for the C++ parser. Consistently across all non-x86 compilers, they've been stripping it out. If you need to use assembly, use an assembler to assemble a whole function and call that.

create a colormatrix object and set the appropriate values.
then set this matrix to the imageattributes object and then pass this object to drawimage().

Or you can use of CImage::AlphaBlend.
