So your end game is just to programmatically insert/replace some characters some place in the edit control?

I have 16 pieces of text in the 4 line edit control any one of whom I could potentially replace
|
|
|
|
|
I just tried this with an ordinary Edit control, and it returns both CR LF in the count.

You did not try this in a Multi Threaded Environment, as explained in the question previous of this

Sorry, but I am not sure what relevance that has to the counting of characters.

Well,
This is Familiar, in particular with the multi threaded question you asked earlier.
MFC cannot realy handle multiple threads. No one seems to know why, I have asked the question before.
At any rate, the only way MFC objects can communicate between threads is with the Old Fashioned WDK Kernel Function ::SendMessage(hWnd, Param1,Param2);
In MFC you create your Message as WM_USER+(X), Create a Message Handler, and, manually add it to the message map.
Any attempt to call an MFC Object from a different thread than in which it was created always ultimately lead to failure.
The Symptoms are: Works, Add a Virtual Function: It stops Working
Hope this helps

EM_GETSELTEXT is explicit
This message returns the number of characters copied, not including the terminating null character.
The call is terminated by the null character and if you have CR,LF they will count as characters
The return is a CHARACTER COUNT, if your edit box is unicode mode it still reflects the character NOT THE NUMBER OF BYTES.
Hence when providing a buffer you are best to use an array of TCHAR rather than a standard byte array to allow for size difference.
Also note when size a TCHAR array use _countof DO NOT use sizeof for the same reason. Standard unicode aware coding practice.
Several of the comments have confusion between CHARACTER and BYTE within the meaning of the windows API. No such confusion exists.

hello,
I had a confusion that why we can use :: sign in calling static member function of class.
while in the case of calling simple member function using :: sign shows error .. in c++.
Please explain .
|
|
|
|
|
Member functions need qualifiers in order for the compiler to know which function your code refers to. In the case of a static function the qualifer must be the class name, since static functions belong to the class: hence Class::Function(). For member functions the qualifer must be the instance reference, as non-static functions are attached to individual objects: hence object.Function() or objectpointer->Function().

Dear Friend,
After adding all necessary message handler to support to edit label in CTreeView
void CMyTreeView::OnBeginLabelEdit( NMHDR* , LRESULT* pResult)
{
CTreeCtrl &ctlFiles = GetTreeCtrl();
ctlFiles.GetEditControl()->LimitText( 127 );
*pResult = 0;
}
void CMyTreeView::OnEndLabelEdit( NMHDR * pNMHDR, LRESULT * pResult )
{
*pResult = TRUE;
}
BOOL CMyTreeView::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if ( pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN )
{
CTreeCtrl &ctlFiles = GetTreeCtrl();
CEdit* edit = ctlFiles.GetEditControl();
if (edit)
{
if( GetKeyState( VK_CONTROL ) && pMsg->wParam == VK_C )
{
edit->Copy();
return TRUE;
}
if( GetKeyState( VK_CONTROL ) && pMsg->wParam == VK_V )
{
edit->Paste();
return TRUE;
}
if( GetKeyState( VK_CONTROL ) && pMsg->wParam == VK_X )
{
edit->Cut();
return TRUE;
}
if( GetKeyState( VK_CONTROL ) && pMsg->wParam == VK_Z )
{
edit->Undo();
return TRUE;
}
if( pMsg->wParam == VK_RETURN || pMsg->wParam == VK_ESCAPE || pMsg->wParam == VK_CONTROL || pMsg->wParam == VK_INSERT )
{
edit->SendMessage(WM_KEYDOWN, pMsg->wParam, pMsg->lParam);
return TRUE;
}
}
}
return CTreeView::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}
If I press a character 'a' to 'z' and 'A' to 'z' then MFC throwing Assertion.
I don't know what I am missing out to avoid this issue.
Kindly help me on this.
Thanks,
S Shanmuga Raja

Which line does it occur on when you step through it, and what is the assertion being hit?

You should avoid overriding PreTranslateMessage ... in your case, you can solve more elegant your task overriding WM_CUT[^], WM_COPY[^], and WM_PASTE[^].

I have a dialog based MFC application that I am rewriting in VS2010 from its original VC++ 6.0 source. Everything works fine in VC++ 6.0
The main dialog contains many child dialogs (not pop-ups) in which one child dialog is used to draw a plot based on the values sent from main dialog. The main dialog calls a function (Draw_Points) within the child dialog and the child dialog draws it and it does as long as the plot hits the edge and then it calls OnPaint message to refresh the dialog so that it can start afresh from left.
void CPlotDlg::Draw_Points(double value1, double value2)
{
if(m_LastPoint1.x < (m_time_rect.right-2))
{
m_CurrentPoint1.x = m_LastPoint1.x + 1;
m_CurrentPoint2.x = m_LastPoint2.x + 1;
m_Data1[m_DataCounter] = value1;
m_Data2[m_DataCounter++] = value2;
CWnd *Ctrl = GetDlgItem(IDE_PLOTS);
CDC *cdc = Ctrl->GetDC();
HGDIOBJ original = NULL;
original = cdc->SelectObject(GetStockObject(DC_PEN));
cdc->SelectObject(pen1);
cdc->MoveTo(m_LastPoint1);
cdc->LineTo(m_CurrentPoint1);
cdc->SelectObject(pen2);
cdc->MoveTo(m_LastPoint2);
cdc->LineTo(m_CurrentPoint2);
cdc->SelectObject(original);
Ctrl->ReleaseDC(cdc);
m_LastPoint1 = m_CurrentPoint1;
m_LastPoint2 = m_CurrentPoint2;
}
else
{
OnPaint();
Reset_PlotData();
}
}
void CPlotDlg::OnPaint()
{
CPaintDC dc(this); if(m_BUpdate)
{
CDialogEx::OnPaint();
CWnd *Ctrl = GetDlgItem(IDE_PLOTS);
Ctrl->InvalidateRect(NULL,true);
Ctrl->UpdateWindow();
}
}
It crashes when the Draw_points function calls OnPaint function in its else section, and when OnPaint() function executes CPaintDC dc(this);
Any suggestions?
thanks

Thanks for your reply Richard. Could you suggest a better way to refresh my child dialog edit control where I draw these lines?
PKNT

|

Well, you need to rethink your design. You should collect all the information related to the drawing as a result of user interaction, file processing etc. You then call InvalidateRect to tell Windows that your data has changed, and your window/client needs to be repainted. Then in the control you call your paint function in response to receiving a WM_PAINT message. It is at that point that you draw your lines, shapes, text etc.

I'm thinking you should call Invalidate() instead of calling OnPaint() directly.

Yes, that did the trick. I do that in couple of other child dialogs, but was not using it in this dialog. Well, looks like you overlook something that's fundamental.

hi all,
i m using Access database with ODBC connection in my application.
here i am generate a CRecordset derived Class for each table in Database.
now here i fetch record here using while loop with movenext.
this is slow in process.
i want to use Query here to fast my process.
please help anyone to execute query to fetch,insert or update record record in table.
thanks in advance.
|
|
|
|

Well, the first step is to create a query ( the easiest way would be to create it and test in the MS Access).
The second step - create the recordset that supports update and insert operations. See MSDN article [^] for details.
