Well what is IDC_OBJECT_EDITING_TAB_CTRL? It looks like the method you are calling requires it to be a dialog resource, but generally IDC_ is the prefix for a control within a dialog - you should probably check this.

Ok, yeah, I didn't make extra dialogs to add to the initial dialog. But...now I can see my tab but there's no caption!! Mad | :mad:

NO TAB!

I keep throwing an error here... Confused | :confused:

int CTabCtrlSSL::AddPage (LPCTSTR pszTitle, int nPageID, TabDelete tabDelete) {<br />
	// Add a page to the tab control.<br />
		// Initialize the page.<br />
		if (OnInitPage (nIndex, nPageID)) {<br />
		THROW ERROR_>	// Make sure the first control in the dialog is the one that<br />
			// receives the input focus when the page is displayed.<br />
			HWND hwndFocus = tabDelete.pTabPage->GetTopWindow ()->m_hWnd;<br />
			nArrayIndex = m_hFocusWnd.Add (hwndFocus);<br />
			ASSERT (nIndex == nArrayIndex);<br />
		}<br />
		else {<br />
			// Make the control that currently has the input focus is the one<br />
			// that receives the input focus when the page is displayed.<br />
			m_hFocusWnd.Add (::GetFocus ());<br />
		}<br />
<br />
	}<br />
	return nIndex;<br />
}

Calling code...

BOOL RDialogForEditingCanalObjects::OnInitDialog() <br />
{<br />
	CDialog::OnInitDialog();<br />
	int nPageID = 0;<br />
<br />
	 this->m_ctrlEditObjectTabs.AddSSLPage (_T("Database"),nPageID++,IDD_DATABASE_TAB); <br />
<br />
	return TRUE;  // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control<br />
	              // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE<br />
}

<-Clueless

This control is screwy and unstable!

I run this code...and it works every time. WTF | :WTF:

BOOL RDialogForEditingCanalObjects::OnInitDialog() <br />
{<br />
	CDialog::OnInitDialog();<br />
	<br />
	int nPageID = 0;<br />
	<br />
	 this->m_ctrlEditObjectTabs.AddSSLPage (_T("Runtime"),nPageID++,IDD_RUNTIME_TAB); <br />
<br />
	return TRUE;  // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control<br />
	              // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE<br />
}

So I add another page... and it works.

BOOL RDialogForEditingCanalObjects::OnInitDialog() <br />
{<br />
	CDialog::OnInitDialog();<br />
	<br />
	int nPageID = 0;<br />
	<br />
	 this->m_ctrlEditObjectTabs.AddSSLPage (_T("Runtime"),nPageID++,IDD_RUNTIME_TAB); <br />
<br />
	 this->m_ctrlEditObjectTabs.AddSSLPage (_T("Database"),nPageID++,IDD_EDIT_DATABASE_TAB); <br />
<br />
	return TRUE;  // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control<br />
	              // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE<br />
}

I try to add antother page and it crashes. So I comment out the new page and the whole program crashes. Then I comment out that page and the first page loads every time but I can't put the second page back in, you know the one that just worked? OMG | :OMG:

BOOL RDialogForEditingCanalObjects::OnInitDialog() <br />
{<br />
	CDialog::OnInitDialog();<br />
	<br />
	int nPageID = 0;<br />
	<br />
	 this->m_ctrlEditObjectTabs.AddSSLPage (_T("Runtime"),nPageID++,IDD_RUNTIME_TAB); <br />
<br />
	 this->m_ctrlEditObjectTabs.AddSSLPage (_T("Database"),nPageID++,IDD_EDIT_DATABASE_TAB); <br />
<br />
	//this->m_ctrlEditObjectTabs.AddSSLPage (_T("Communications"),nPageID++,IDD_EDIT_COMMUNICATIONS_TAB); <br />
<br />
<br />
	return TRUE;  // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control<br />
	              // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE<br />
}

This control is FIRED! Wink | ;)

Any idea?

Even inexperienced crackers can unlock this.
Also, it is not a good method, adding junk to the registry. Forget it. Find a new method.

Adding junk to the registry!? Confused | :confused:

What is considered not to be junk?

pranavamhari wrote:

I agree with you (not entirely) but there are no bullet proof methods. Anything can be unlocked. The whole purpose of CExpire is to give you an idea on how to protect a program, and not to provide an extremly strong protection scheme. I would suggest a combination of different protection schemes.

how to create a sub DC in a DC?

CaesarCZ29-Jul-03 12:17

CaesarCZ

29-Jul-03 12:17

Hi,
I got a DC and need to take a rectangular part of it and pass it to a function that fills it with what it deserves. But I need clipping. I would imagine creating a sub-DC of the DC or locking all but the concerned part of the DC and then pass it over. Could you tell me how (if it's possible at all). GDI. Pure WinAPI prefered but will do with MFC sample as well if you post it. Even some hint would be fine. Thanks

filling and passing SAFEARRAYS

bigeyedfish8129-Jul-03 10:56

bigeyedfish81

29-Jul-03 10:56

I am trying to pass an empty variant array from VB, fill it (as a SAFEARRAY) in my c++ dll and then pass it back to VB. My overall goal is to populate the passed in array with a list of PID's of processes that are currently running in a job (JobName), and send it back. I am able to send and receive it, but when I receive it, I only have 1 PID in the returned array (even if I know I have two or three processes running in a job)

here is my code:

c++ DLL:

STDMETHODIMP CJob::ProcessesInJob(BSTR JobName, VARIANT* arrPID)
{

USES_CONVERSION;

SAFEARRAYBOUND abound[1];
SAFEARRAY *psa = NULL;
DWORD i;
HRESULT result;

HANDLE hOpenJob = OpenJobObject(JOB_OBJECT_ALL_ACCESS, FALSE, OLE2CT(JobName));
if (NULL == hOpenJob)
return 3;

//fill a structure with PID information for processes associated with the specified job;

JOBOBJECT_BASIC_PROCESS_ID_LIST jobinfoID = {0};
QueryInformationJobObject(hOpenJob, JobObjectBasicProcessIdList, &jobinfoID, sizeof(jobinfoID), NULL);

long *AEL;
abound[0].lLbound = 0;
abound[0].cElements = jobinfoID.NumberOfProcessIdsInList;

arrPID->vt = VT_ARRAY | VT_I4;

psa = V_ARRAY(arrPID);

//lock the data to access it
SafeArrayAccessData(psa, (void**)&AEL);
for(i=0; i

Get ChildFrame from CDocument (MDI app)

Hello,

This should be an easy one, but I can't seem to figure it out.

In my CDocument class, I want to get a pointer to my CChildFrame.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

This should help:

/** Returns a ptr to the first View containing this Document, or NULL if no View exists yet.
 *  @see CEDDoc::FindVisibleView(), CEDDoc::GetBestView()
 */
CEDTextView*
CEDDoc::GetFirstView() const
{
POSITION pos;

    return ( pos = GetFirstViewPosition() ) ne NULL ? dynamic_cast<CEDTextView*>( GetNextView( pos ) ) : NULL;
}

Then use: GetParentFrame() on the returned view, if !NULL.

My first reaction is are you sure that you want to do this?? It will be very difficult ~~impossible~~ for the user to find an item in your combo if there are 30K different choices...

Weird linking Error

Janayma29-Jul-03 8:48

29-Jul-03 8:48

Hi folks out there !

I am new to working with VC7.0 so maybe this is my fault, but I discovered some strange linking error which is really driving me insane. And maybe some of you can tell me, what could be wrong:

The basic structure is the following :

I have header files

"HWStructs.H" with some struct declarations
"System.h" containing some namespaces. It is using the "HWStructs.H" for some namespace variables;

I also have a "SystemInfo.cpp", which is including "System.h", containing the definitions of the namespace "SystemInfo".

(All of my headers use include guards)
Last but not least I have my "main.cpp" which is including "System.h" to gain access to the namespaces;

The weird thing I am talking about is that it doesnt link on a regular basis. It links once, then not at all for quite a while, complaining abt redefinitions of all the structs I have in "HWStructs.h". Somewhen it just starts working again and at some not understandable point it stops, giving me lots of redefinitions in eithter "main.cpp" or "SystemInfo.cpp" again.

I even managed to reproduce this behaviour with some example files. There it wouldn't link the first time, only the second time hitting compile. WTF | :WTF:

So what the heck is wrong ? Confused | :confused:

I'd be incredibly grateful for any suggestions,

Chris

They appear in the output window of Visual Studio. The app must be started with F5.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
