Re: String Factorial?? wb16-Jul-03 3:29 wb 16-Jul-03 3:29  may you describe it a bit more? but... if you create a "normal" hashkey which is suitable for the hashspace, and then transform it to ASCII?

I want to compress my 1024x1024 array of pixels and set a transperent mask of this on top of the existing image in my dialog box. I am trying to find the best way to do it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Windows explorer creates the bitmap at runtime from the text and the flag icon.

I am not using MFC as my project is a Win32 project using just the Windows API, but the Rich Edit Control Does not get created when I pass the Dialog Template to CreateDialog(), when I change the resource to a normal Edit control everything works fine. I tried another option of Creating the control using CreateWindow("RICHEDIT"....), this does not seem to work too, I tried getting the Last Error and found that the "RICHEDIT" class is not registered, I tried "RichEdit20A" and that failed too, can someone let me know what I am missing here? Note that this is not an MFC application but plain Win32 API application. -TIA Sundar Re: RichEdit Creation Problems adamUK15-Jul-03 11:51 adamUK 15-Jul-03 11:51  Have you initialised it using BOOL AFXAPI AfxInitRichEdit() in the initinstance of your app?

Re: RichEdit Creation Problems Michael Dunn15-Jul-03 12:25 Michael Dunn 15-Jul-03 12:25  You need to load the rich edit ctrl library before creating any rich edit controls. Load "riched20.dll" for rich edit version 2+, or "riched32.dll" for version 1. --Mike-- "Big handwavy generalizations made from a position of deep ignorance is one of the biggest wastes of time on the net today. -- Joel Spolsky Ericahist | Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber Suggestions Needed: Populating ListView Frank Deo15-Jul-03 11:15 Frank Deo 15-Jul-03 11:15  Hello all, My App needs to load a a list of configurations into a list view at load time. The list will then be user modifiable (add, delete, edit). What would you all consider to be the best way to do this. An INI file storing each configuration and stored in a folder under the working folder, and loaded at runtime? Or, doing the same thing in the registry. And, how would you keep track of the items so that the correct number are re-loaded back at runtime. For example: At startup the list contains 4 items. Item0, Item1, Item2, and Item3. The user deletes Item2. Now there is no real index to keep track of, I can see there are 3 files, but loading them in any logical progression is no longer an option. Thanks for any suggestions you may have. Frank "Keyboard Error - Press F1 to Continue" Re: Suggestions Needed: Populating ListView valikac16-Jul-03 4:52 valikac 16-Jul-03 4:52  What is the maximum size of the list of configurations? If it is relatively small, one solution is registry. Otherwise, one solution is to save the configurations on disk.

Are memory mapped files typically used for loading/saving speed, or is it just to handle incredibly large files? I'm currently in a situation where I need to load and parse large files (~20 MB) and I'm wondering about the different strategies for doing that as fast as possible. Thanks Shawn Re: Memory Mapped Files and Performance Strategies David Crow15-Jul-03 10:12 David Crow 15-Jul-03 10:12  They eliminate the need to hit the disk multiple times. With a 20MB file, you will notice a difference. With smaller files, the gain, if any, is negligible. Re: Memory Mapped Files and Performance Strategies Mike Dimmick16-Jul-03 6:36 Mike Dimmick 16-Jul-03 6:36  For some situations it's more convenient to use memory mapped files (e.g. if your file is structured with offsets to given items), and so that you can have a disk-backed data structure. It really simplifies programming such a shared structure - you don't have to explicitly read or write the file, you just read from or write to memory. Note that there isn't any particular improvement in speed, nor any fewer disk hits: pages of a mapped view of a memory-mapped file are still paged in (and out) on demand. SQL Server makes a lot of use of memory mapped files, IIRC. If you're just reading a file sequentially, rely on the file system caching. It'll do much the same thing and is typically less complicated to program. To optimise the caching behaviour, pass the FILE_FLAG_SEQUENTIAL_SCAN or FILE_FLAG_RANDOM_ACCESS flags, depending on how you're using the file. If you specify one mode but your program actually reads the other way, performance is typically worse than if you hadn't specified either flag. Essentially FILE_FLAG_SEQUENTIAL_SCAN tells the system to read-ahead a lot and not at all behind, whereas FILE_FLAG_RANDOM_ACCESS tells it not to read ahead or behind very much. Specifying neither gives a compromise mode that does a little read-behind and some read-ahead. FILE_FLAG_SEQUENTIAL_SCAN causes pages behind the current file pointer to be discarded aggressively. For information on how Windows 2000 file caching works, see Inside Windows 2000[^], chapters 7 (Memory Management) and 11 (Cache Manager). Basically the system implements caching by memory-mapping the files.

True, but for the last project I changed, I simply read from a CMemFile instead of a CFile, and the subsequent processing time could be measured in minutes instead of what used to take days. That's quite an improvement. Re: Memory Mapped Files and Performance Strategies Mike Dimmick16-Jul-03 22:41 Mike Dimmick 16-Jul-03 22:41  CMemFile is not a memory mapped file. It's a block of memory that conforms to the CFile interface, i.e., you can treat it as if it's a file. True memory-mapped files are a different thing entirely. Re: Memory Mapped Files and Performance Strategies David Crow17-Jul-03 5:59 David Crow 17-Jul-03 5:59  I disagree. A CMemFile object is a memory file that behaves like a disk file except that the file is stored in RAM rather than on disk. A MMF, by definition, provides you with the capability to map a view of all or part of a file on disk to a specific range of addresses within your process's address space. Once that is done, accessing the content of it is as simple as dereferencing a pointer in the designated range of addresses. I fail to see how they are THAT different. In either case, once the file is read from disk and into memory, you operate on the file in its memory-mapped state, using the appropriate functions. The MSDN article Q142377 offers another view. carriage return/line feed butterbean73015-Jul-03 9:55 butterbean730 15-Jul-03 9:55  How do I send a carriage return and line feed through a serial port?
