Well for the modeless dialog you have to do that.In slow machines if you do your way,the main dialog or window maybe become visible for a very short time.Thats why I say it is slower.

Here's a simpler way:
1. Uncheck the "Visible" checkbox from the dialog resource.
2. Construct the dialog box modelessly:
In your CWinApp-derived class, replace the code in your InitInstance (after Enable3dControlStatic) with something like this:
static CYourDlg dlg;
dlg.Create(CYourDlg::IDD);
m_pMainWnd = &dlg;
return TRUE;

I am trying to modify the message map at run-time, to create new handles.
Everything lokks fine, but i get this error
Compiler Error C2276 'operator' : illegal address of bound member function expression
when I try to assign the handle function "MaximizeDialog"
AFX_MSGMAP_ENTRY newEntry;
newEntry.nMessage = WM_COMMAND;
newEntry.nCode = CN_COMMAND;
newEntry.nID = (WORD)nID;
newEntry.nLastID = (WORD)nID;
newEntry.nSig = AfxSig_bw;
newEntry.pfn = (AFX_PMSG)(BOOL (AFX_MSG_CALL CCmdTarget::*) (UINT))&MaximizeDialog;
_messageEntries[i] = newEntry;
What can I do ? thanks !

Here's a quick stab at your problem: try removing the "&" from the front of MaximizeDialog.

Thank you !
But I still dont understand, why this '&' is in the definition of windows
#define ON_COMMAND_EX(id, memberFxn)\
{ WM_COMMAND, CN_COMMAND, (WORD)id, (WORD)id, AfxSig_bw, \
(AFX_PMSG)(BOOL (AFX_MSG_CALL CCmdTarget::*) (UINT))&memberFxn },
and works when i use the original macro.

When I loaded up VC++ 6.0 today and went to my resource editor to edit a dialog box in my project, every time I double clicked on a part of it the MFC Class Wizard popped up and told me to add the dialog to a class. I am not using MFC, I have no idea how this setting got turned on and more importantly I don't know how to get rid of it so I can get on with my project. Someone please tell me how to de-activate this feature it is driving me nuts  Thanks!

|

Tools - Options - Compatibility - uncheck "Double-click in Dialog editor edits code (MFC only)".
By this way feature is deactivated completely. I really don't know what to do if you want to deactivate it only for non-MFC projects.

Hi all,
I developped a MDI application that shows a timetable for an appointment system. It basically show staff members and the appointments they are assigned. Each appointment is represented using a derived CWnd object. You get information on appointments by hovering on them using another CWnd derived object.
My problem is that I've got a lot of flicker when i'm dragging appointments or when I hovering on appointments. It really flicker when there's a lot of appointments showing up.
I tried implementing double-buffering but it didn't change anything, any idea?

Try to show the information by testing for a time lag
of say about 500 ms to 1 sec.
I think windows tooltips are also implemented in this manner

You can should draw at first to a memory dc and the draw to the screen.
Another solution is to use timers for redrawing.
My experience is also if it doesn´t work, may be there an conceptional mistake.
(Oversized solution)
IMHO: that each appointment is a CWnd seems to be no good idea. I would internally work with an array and access it via the screen coordinates. The output would be simple Retangles.
Try it @ home. (B&B)

Hi,
The thing is that my controls are drawing themselves and that I already implemented a memory dc in the drawing code.
Could the problem be that my view is not actually drawing the controls, but just sending a WM_PAINT message to each of my derived CWnd controls ?
|
|
|
|
|
You´re right. You have understood the principle architecture of the Windows API.
My suggestion implies that the area would be drawn by the "containing" window.
Try it @ home. (B&B)

Thanks for the info, i'll give it a go.

By the way, did you know that 'flicker' is dutch 'slang' for a homosexual guy?
Imagine what MS-Word said a few years ago when I typed in a meeting report that one of our applications had a flicker-problem...
(I know this really belongs in the lounge-forum, but I couldn't resist, sorry).
Enjoy life, this is not a rehearsal !!!

Is there a way to find the minimum necessary size for the buffer argument of vsprintf before making the call?
rechi
|
|
|
|
|
sprintf works by calling a the low-level output function (_output) with a stream handle. that same output function handles all printf-style output (printf, sprintf, fprintf, etc). the output function simply outputs to a stream, which can grow as large as necessary.
so... to simulate it... run down the format string, parse it, add up the size of all the output specs. not easy.
-c
A conclusion is simply the place where someone got tired of thinking.

Use _vsnprintf and if it returns -1, your buffer is too small.
Tim Smith
I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.
|
|

|

If you have MFC installed (with VC6), the CString member "FormatV" (which is internally called by "Format"), does this sort of checking (i.e., runs through the format specifications and makes a "guess" at what size the buffer should be). The code for this function is in "YOUR_ROOT_MSDEV_DIRECTORY_HERE\vc98\mfc\src\strex.cpp"

I have an application where I want to find out the details of a DLL - version, internal name etc. if possible.
There is an original DLL which I need to check and replace with another of the same name.
Any ideas ?
Thanks.

You can read the version resource from them:
Here's a snippet from my code that does a very simple resource reading. (m_sArquivo has the fileName)
DWORD dwDummyHandle;
CString sArquivo(m_sArquivo.c_str());
DWORD dwSize = GetFileVersionInfoSize(sArquivo.LockBuffer(), &dwDummyHandle);
sArquivo.ReleaseBuffer();
if (dwSize == 0)
throw CWin32Error();
BYTE *lpBuffer = new BYTE[dwSize];
if (!GetFileVersionInfo(sArquivo.LockBuffer(), dwDummyHandle, dwSize, lpBuffer))
{
delete []lpBuffer;
throw CWin32Error();
}
VS_FIXEDFILEINFO *vInfo;
UINT uInfoSize;
if (!VerQueryValue(lpBuffer, _T("\\"), (LPVOID*)&vInfo, &uInfoSize))
{
delete []lpBuffer;
throw CWin32Error();
}
if (uInfoSize == 0)
{
delete []lpBuffer;
throw CWin32Error();
}
std::strstream out;
out << HIWORD(vInfo->dwFileVersionMS) << "."
<< LOWORD(vInfo->dwFileVersionMS) << "."
<< HIWORD(vInfo->dwFileVersionLS) << "."
<< LOWORD(vInfo->dwFileVersionLS) << std::ends;
delete []lpBuffer;
return out.str();
