The answer to both of your questions is to use a double-buffering scheme. Basically, you will create a device context that isn't displayed to the monitor, draw to it, then copy all the bits to the screen at once. Do a search on this site for CMemDC and you will hit a couple articles that do exactly that.

When dealing with graphics that change regularly, do not draw them to the screen directly or you will have the flicker problem.

Hi All,
I have been toiling around with using XMLRPC.Searching on Google didn't provide with any good links or articles. I want to know how to use XML RPC with VC++, where do I get the libraries from, and some samples from which I can gain knowledge about XML RPC.
Can anyone make me point to some article/source sample?
Thanks in advance.

Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

hi Manjunath,

It is possible to add tooltips for the Static Text, In the Resource Editor for every StaticText ID give a meaning String value.

in the Coding part call CString.LoadString(IDC_ResourceSringID);

Then use CToolTipCtrl ctr;
Ctr.Create(this);

and Try....

HI all,

I have created a ellipse using

CDC::Ellipse(...). but once i have created that ellipse i want to move the ellipse what i have created.

//======================================================================
if((insidepoint == true ) && (nFlags & MK_LBUTTON))
{
CRect rect;
GetClientRect(&rect);
ClientToScreen(&rect);
SetCapture();

nOldMode = dc.GetROP2();
dc.SetROP2(R2_NOT);
one.CreatePen(PS_DASHDOT,1,RGB(200,200,0));
old = dc.SelectObject(&one);
dc.SelectStockObject(NULL_BRUSH);

double dia = sqrt((array[2]-array[0])*(array[2]-array[0]) + (array[3]-array[1])*(array[3]-array[1]))/2;
//dc.Ellipse(OldPoint.x,OldPoint.y,(point.x + dia),(point.y + dia));
dc.Ellipse(point.x,point.y,(point.x + dia),(point.y + dia));
OldPoint = point;
dc.SetROP2(nOldMode);
dc.SelectObject(old);
showCordinates(point);
}

please let me know any solution.

hi whitesky,

i have created an ellipse using cdc::ellipse(...).

but once it is created, and the mouse is entered into the ellipse what i have created, if i press the Left button and dragged the ellipse what i have drawn, it should move accordingly with the current position of the mouse.

if i understand you need to WM_LBUTTONMouse and WM_MOVEMOUSE
for your purpose and you can use from point for position x,y in these messages
-------
i think you can use also from a control (button or...) with a shape like ellipse instead this way

Hello,

I wrote a simple programm using Visual C++ where I want to move a cirle
in a window via drag&drop. I used the pDC->Ellipse() and the
InavlidateRect() functions for drawing the circle.
So far it works. But I have two problems:
1. When I move the mouse quickly during a drag&drop, not the entire
"old" cicle disappears so that I get a trace of the way I moved the
cicrle around
2. How can I implement that with a flicker-free window? (perhaps the
InvalidateRect() and pDC->Ellipse() functions aren't very useful for my
intentions and I should use other functions)

RTTI

Hi Friends,
I have a question about RTTI.
1) In C++ we have vptr pointing to vtables which helps to make use of
pointer as polymorphic entities.
2) Without knowing object type I can call methods of object using
those pointers.
So in which case RTTI is needed? ( Why I need to know my object
type?) What is the use case?

class CObject {}
 
class CCar : public CObject {}
 
class CBus : public CObject {}
 
class CBike : public CObject {}
 
std::vector<CObject> vecVehicles;

then, how do you know if the elements inserted in the vector are Cars, Buses or Bikes without RTTI ?

A batch (.bat) file is nothing more than a collection of commands that could just as easily be executed from a command prompt. That said, if you can issue the SQL commands from a command prompt, then you can also do such from a batch file.

You can find several in Criptography[^] category.

I have tested this one[^] and I think you could use it. All depends on the degree of security you need or if you just needs a first stop for a possible opener.

I hope it helps,
