ok
this is what i want to do.
In my programs I am using some windows apis like(RegConnectRegistry,RegOpenKeyEx,GetFileVersion etc)to connect remote registry
or getting any information from remote machine.
These APIs works only when I login to remote machines using their username and passwords.
This thing i want to do programmatically, any program or api that can use username and passwords of remote machines.

oh.
And I take it that you are not operating in any sort of domain environment, where priveleges, access, and passwords are centrally administered. If you were, these API's would work assuming that you had actual access priveleges.
So, you want to arbitrarily be able to connect to a machine, with their known credentials, and make the connections to these remote APIs.
That I don't know the answer to.
Take a look through "Network Management" portion of the platform SDK.

Hi,
is it possible to check if an external application has been started, in Windows 98/NT/2K? This application runs in background mode (silent mode), i can see it only in processes tab of Task manager.
I am programming with (ANSI) C.
Thanx in advance,
Aenaos

One solution is FindWindow().

Have you looked at EnumProcesses() and related functions?
|
|
|
|
|
if it's a program that you control, consider adding a mutex with a global name.
The external app creates it, your program checks to see if it's in-use (running from that other program). This way is handier than EnumProcess -- if you ever change the names of programs, you don't have to rename your mutex.
-p
see CreateMutex and WaitForSingleObject API's.

I'm trying to align a struct like so:
<br />
__declspec(align(16)) struct myStruct<br />
{<br />
char a;<br />
int b;<br />
short c;<br />
};<br />
and i get align is undefined when trying to compile.
I even copied the sample from MSDN and had no luck.
Anyone knows what's the problem? Is it a compiler switch
not used? Or only used in VC7?
thanks

The align declspec option is not supported in VC6. Try using the #pragma pack() option instead:
#pragma pack(push, 16)
struct myStruct
{
char a;
int b;
short c;
};
#pragma pack(pop)Hope this helps,

thanks for replying, I was afraid it was the answer, however,
MS didn't say it's not for VC6.
anyways, I also saw this option (pragma pack) but it doesn't
allow me to go over 32 (align goes to 4k if I'm not mistaking).
so is this the final answer?
|
|
|
|

#pragma pack(push, #) does not allow you values other than:
1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
It's pretty bad

|

|

Yeah, I don't think the two options are identical, they are used for different things, but have similar effects.

Hello,
I am trying to dynamically change the texts of the menu items of my main menu. The program should translate the menu items to the local language at runtime. I am using the BCMenu class:
UINT nItem = 0;
CString strItem;
CString strNew;
char *pszSrc = NULL;
while(1)
{
if(m_menu.GetMenuText(nItem, strItem, MF_BYPOSITION) == FALSE) break;
pszSrc = strItem.LockBuffer();
strNew = TRL(pszSrc);
strItem.UnlockBuffer();
if(m_menu.SetMenuText(nItem, strNew, MF_BYPOSITION) == FALSE) { ASSERT(FALSE); }
MessageBox(strItem + " -> " + strNew);
nItem++;
}
m_bMenu = SetMenu(&m_menu);
ASSERT(m_bMenu == TRUE);
The TRL function takes a char * as input and returns a char * to the translated string. This works very well as one can see in the dislayed message box (strItem+"->"+strNew).
The items are translated correctly, but the menu doesn't change. The menu items remain english, untranslated. But the SetMenuText function returns TRUE...
Any idea what is going on?

_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do??

call DrawMenuBar() for the window. From MSDN:
Redraws the menu bar. If a menu bar is changed after Windows has created the window, call this function to draw the changed menu bar.
Hope this helps,

Nope, that doesn't help. I've changed my code now a bit:
UINT nItem = 0;
UINT nSub = 0;
CString strItem;
CString strNew;
char *pszSrc = NULL;
BCMenu *pSubMenu = &m_menu;
while(1)
{
nItem = 0;
while(1)
{
if(pSubMenu->GetMenuText(nItem, strItem, MF_BYPOSITION) == FALSE) break;
pszSrc = strItem.LockBuffer();
strNew = TRL(pszSrc);
strItem.UnlockBuffer();
if(pSubMenu->SetMenuText(nItem, strNew, MF_BYPOSITION) == FALSE) { ASSERT(FALSE); }
nItem++;
}
pSubMenu = (BCMenu *)m_menu.GetSubMenu(nSub);
nSub++;
if(pSubMenu == NULL) break;
}
m_bMenu = SetMenu(&m_menu);
ASSERT(m_bMenu == TRUE);
The items in the menu (so for example all items in "File", such as "Exit") are translated and shown correctly!
It's just the "main main" menu bar (so the one with "File", "Extras", "View", etc).
The code snippet above is called in OnInitDialog.
Any more idea?

Hi!
I am using the DHTML editing control and I want to add a table so I want to add the code into the html code of the control myself? How can I do it?
Thank you very much for your future answers!
Well... I am a beginner ...

I/m new to VC++. I developed a program which receives a float value via a dialog box (derived from CDialog). This value is a Fahrenheit temparature. Next it performs some mathematics and successfully finds out Centigrade equivalent (a float again). I want this value displayed on the Windows Client Area. How can I? So far I have used CDC::TextOut(int,int," "); this shows a string message but doesn't show the variable's value. Even type casting hasn't helped.
LOOKING FOR YOUR GUIDANCE

To convert a float to a string, use
CString str;
str.Format(_T("%f"), (double)MyFloatValue);[edit]If this doesn't work, remove the (double) cast:
CString str;
str.Format(_T("%f"), MyFloatValue);[/edit]Hope this helps,
Ryan

You've mixed types there. %f is for floats, no need for the cast to double. In fact, the code will break because Format() will expect a float value on the stack, but it will see a double and generate an incorrect string.

That's what I thought, but because I don't usually use floats, I checked MSDN, and the documentation for printf said %f expected a double. Perhaps the docs are wrong.

Ummmm, perhaps you don't realise that 1 is the lowest rating and 5 is the highest
If it doesn't work remove the (double) cast (see Michael Dunn's message above).

Hi,
I'm using dtpcustom to specify my own format od date and time display.(yyyy-mm-dd':'dddd)
English (US) is set as default language of my system.when the locale is set to English(US) the date time picker can show the dddd part as "saturday" in english correctly.when i change the locale to Chinese(PRC),some junk characters are displayed instead of displaying "saturday" in chinese characters. But if i change the default language of the system to Chinese(PRC) and reboot the machine,the date time picker can show chinese characters.
Thanx in advance

You need to change the dialog font to MS Shell Dlg, instead of MS Sans Serif which is the font generated by the resource editor. MS Sans Serif doesn't display double-byte characters. In VC 6 you need to open the .rc file as plain text and change the font. No idea how to do it in VC 7.
