How does one make another function the actual entry point into a Win32 app?
I've seen it on Codewarrior on the Macintosh that you specify what function is your entry point..
How do you do it in VC 6?

Select Project/Settings, go to the Link tab, select Category: Output and there you should see the "Entry-point symbol" editbox. From there you can change the entry-point of your application, which when left empty defaults to "WinMain" for win32 applications and "main" for console applications.

Yes, you can do that. But just out of curiosity, would it be a standard program then? I mean, doesn't the standard specify that main() should be the starting point?
In fact, Turbo C++  has a pragma option called startup that will let you start from another function, but after that, main() will be called.

I don't see any use in changing the entry point neither, except wWinMain and wmain of course. Anyway it's just a function and called only once (as long as you're not recursing  in main) I guess people have different tastes and different ways to obfuscate their code. You never know

I have a text/rich text box on a dialog. Vertical scroll is enabled for this text box. I write text on the text box. Ofcourse some text may be hidden that we can see after scrolling up or down.
Now i want everything written in the text box to be represented by a CBitmap object. How can i do so ????
Actually i want the contents of text box to be stored in a bmp file. I know how to store CBitmap contents in a BMP file, but i don't know how to first represent the text box contents in CBitmap object (as it is).
Thanks

you can redirect a RichText control's output using the DrawBand and FormatRange calls. i don't have any code handy to share, but it really only takes a few lines to do this. try googling on those function calls.
-c

|

You can also create a memory DC, send the control a WM_PAINT message with the handle of that DC, and extract the BMP from the DC.

When you right click on ANY files,you will see popup menu with SEND TO option,which you can send files to Floppy disk,Zip compressed File,My document and..... . How can I add an option to it,I think I should do it with registery.
Also how I can add menu to popup menu of specific extention,,I mean when I right click a specific extention in win explorer,it show up with additional action ,something like "Enqueue in winamp" for mp3 file.
Thanks

hello
i had add a ressource at my menu it's Slider and the name that give to it it's IDC_SLIDER1.
i want to have the position of the slider with GetPos( );
must i use IDC_SLIDER1 or what to have the position and initialise the range and position?
|
|

|

If you don't want to use DDX you could add a pointer to a CSliderCtrl called m_wndSlider and then use the code below
int initfunc()
{
m_wndSlider= ((CSliderCtrl*)GetDlgItem(IDC_SLIDER1));
m_wndSlider->SetRange(0,100);
m_wndSlider->SetPos(0);
return 0;
}
int getSliderValue()
{
return m_wndSlider.GetPos();
}

i put a picture control onto a form,& i wanna change it's content in a button click event.i've tried with function (CStatic)SetBitMap ,but it seems doesn't work! it puzzled me for two days ,somebody help me!;P;P
|

first, go to classwizard from by right clicking on your dialog class
click the member variables tab and add a variable for your picture CStatic as a CStatic CONTROL, and call it m_picture. Now left click on your CStatic in the resource editor and make sure it's set to type: bitmap
Now double click on the button you want to control the picture change in the resource editor and let it add the mapped function for you by hitting "ok".
Now you should be in your dialog with the new button pressed mapped function
now add this code like so
void Cdlg::OnButtonClick()
{HBITMAP hBitmap = (HBITMAP) ::LoadImage(NULL, _T("C:\\some\\image\\location.bmp"), IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0, LR_LOADFROMFILE | LR_CREATEDIBSECTION);
m_picture.SetBitmap(hBitmap);
}
now compile and watch as the code works.
PS- that obviously works just as well using a resource bitmap, and if it's not a dialog you would obviously create the CStatic naming it m_picture(class member) and initialize it and show it before using it.

Hi everybody
I am trying to use the CheckSpelling method of MSWord in order to check how a word is spelled. It works perfectly with English but I want to test also against Spanish words. Now I have installed Spanish in Word. I have checked that word must detect language change automatically and also when testing against Word spell check works fine with Spanish words.
The method call that I use is:
oWordApp.CheckSpelling(szWord, vOpt, vTrue, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt, vOpt);
It seems to me that I cannot find a way to change the spellchecking language in runtime. I would appreciate any suggestion.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
I have a listview as one of my splitter panes. A function in this view is as follows:
void MyFunction(CString* str)<br />
{<br />
}
But whenever I try to do so, it asserts saying that it isn't a window. A listview works just fine in another 2 applications I have a listview in.
Everything is standard...I haven't overridden any functions. The documentation says I don't need to create a ListCtrl because the view did.
Any suggestions?

this may sound awkward, but did you try passing the CString by value instead?
I've had some nasty stuff happen when I tried passing CStrings by a pointer then using them in controls.
hey

That was a typo there...actually, I'm just using a CString instead of a CString*... I did try your code, but unfortunately it didn't work either.
I've tried many functions... they all assert. It seems to think that there isn't a window there.
Perhaps it's a cast of some sort that I'm missing...I really have no idea.

Add a member variable to the main frame that corresponds to the listview.
