Hi,
I have created Static control programmatically.I need to display image in
static control of Dialog.I have written following code

HINSTANCE hInstTemp = AfxGetApp()->m_hInstance;
	HBITMAP hbmp = NULL;
	if(hInstTemp != NULL)
		hbmp = (HBITMAP)LoadImage(hInstTemp,_T("C:\\vicky.bmp"), IMAGE_BITMAP, 50, 50,LR_LOADFROMFILE);
	if(hbmp != NULL)
		myStatic->SetBitmap(hbmp);

shall I need to call DrawItem or override DrawItem??

Have you set the SS_BITMAP for that static control?

yes I have set SS_BITMAP|SS_CENTER.
If I did not set SS_CENTER Image is coming properly.
Thanks for your reply.

I doubt you mistook SS_CENTER instead of SS_CENTERIMAGE. Please check.

No you can insert SS_BITMAP with ModifyStyle to your control and for bmp files you can use of this function but for jpg files you need to use of CImage class.

Assume prfimg Bitmap is proper.

EncoderParameters pEncoderParameters;
pEncoderParameters.Count = 1;
pEncoderParameters.Parameter[0].Guid = EncoderCompression;
pEncoderParameters.Parameter[0].Type = EncoderParameterValueTypeLong;
pEncoderParameters.Parameter[0].NumberOfValues = 1;

// Save the image as a tiff with RLE compression 
ULONG compression = EncoderValueCompressionRle;
pEncoderParameters.Parameter[0].Value = &compression;
	
GetEncoderClsid(L"image/tiff", &encoderClsid);
st = prfimg->Save(L"i:\\m\\img.tif", &encoderClsid, &pEncoderParameters);

getting value of st as InvalidParameter and the image is not saved properly on disk(saved image size on disk is 1KB)
Please tell if something more needs to be done to save tif image with Rle compression.
Other compression options gives the same InvalidParameter result.

Thanks and Regards.

How read registry key value on Xp64bit OS

I have added the key in HKLM on Xp64bit OS.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE\\TEST\\App\\MyKey === "CodeProject"

Now, I have tried with below mentioned way,

bool Result = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, TEXT("SOFTWARE\\TEST\\App"), 0, KEY_READ, &hKey) == ERROR_SUCCESS;

if (Result)
{
Result = RegQueryValueEx(hKey, TEXT("MyKey"), NULL, &dwType, (LPBYTE)&szTemp, &dwSize) == ERROR_SUCCESS;

switch(dwType)
{
case REG_BINARY:
AfxMessageBox ("\ntype: REG_BINARY");
break;
case REG_NONE:
AfxMessageBox ("\ntype: REG_NONE");
break;
}
}

Messagebox displays"type: REG_NONE". That means, "No defined value type".
So, how to get my key (MyKey) value "CodeProject"?

This must be if (ERROR_SUCCESS == Result)
and Result must be declared as a LONG and not bool.

The value of ERROR_SUCCESS is 0.

So, in you code if it is entering if(Result), it means you are not getting ERROR_SUCCESS, which means an error in the open itself.

I got the solution. If our application is 32bit then registry entry (only for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE) in 64 bit OS sould be in

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node

in my case entry should be in

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Test\\App

Please check the posted code (for instance use < to escape the symbol < when required).
Why are you calling directly the timer function inside OnInitDialog (instead of starting the timer? You may actually do it, but usually you haven't...)?
Since you're calling directly (form OnInitDialog) your timer function (OnBnClickedTimer) it doesn't make sense the OnStopTimer call in the latter.

Anyway your application 'freezes' possibly because of a bug in your loop. You should debug it in order to have a clue about (ispecting your code is also difficult because of the, already mentioned, bad formatting).

Thanks.
I got something (I think) with FindFirstFile and FindNextFile.

Though, it doesn't quite work, this whole code is in a try catch block, but still throws a System.AccessViolationException (which is .NET specific and I can't use it or acces it) and does nothing:

try
{
   fstream file;
   vector<lpwin32_find_dataw> files;
   LPCTSTR namepointer;
   HANDLE handle;
   string line = "";
   int i = 0;
   int size;
   char directory [] = "C:\\Folder";
   char *stringpointer = directory ;
	
   files.assign(1, LPWIN32_FIND_DATAW());
   handle = FindFirstFile(namepointer, files[i]);
		
   while (handle != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
   {
      FindNextFile(handle, files[i]);
      files.assign(1, LPWIN32_FIND_DATAW());
      i++;
   }	
   size = files.size();

   cout << files.size() << endl;
   for (int k = 0; k < size; k++)
   {
      cout << "Reading File:" << files[k]->cFileName << endl;
   }
   getchar();
   return 0;
}
catch (exception ex)
{
   cout << "An error has occurred." << endl;
   cout << ex.what() << endl;
}</lpwin32_find_dataw>

I want to read the filenames to check if they're txt files with the right kind of name and then read from them to process the text of each.

Thanks.
