Re: using next_permutation 5-Jan-02 20:25 5-Jan-02 20:25  Mike, Thanx for your interest. I need a simpler explation than MSDN using chsr or string or int. I need all possible combinations in a set.So,I thought of getting all the permutations as a string and then eleminate those with similar elements no mater what the order is,which is what combinaton is.I hope you understood. So,this is my need.Also please tell me about any code for combination you come across. Bye. Reg Query Problem Peter Liddle29-Dec-01 3:38 Peter Liddle 29-Dec-01 3:38  Hey Guys Can anyone see a problem with this code its meant to read a value out of a string in the registry and there is definately a value there. All this does though is display 3 random characters. The dword returns the right length of the string though. I think that it might be due to the way im trying to convert unicode to asci. If anyone knows a proper way of doing it it would be a great help. Cheers Peter code:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TCHAR sInstallDirectory[MAX_PATH]; BYTE sInstallDirectoryUNI[MAX_PATH]; DWORD dwLengthOfInstallDirectory = NULL; HKEY hUninstallInfo; RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\\RCAS\\UninstallInfo", 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, &hUninstallInfo); if(RegQueryValueEx(hUninstallInfo, "InstallDirectory", NULL, NULL, &sInstallDirectoryUNI[0], &dwLengthOfInstallDirectory) == ERROR_SUCCESS) { TCHAR sTest[10]; ultoa(dwLengthOfInstallDirectory, sTest, 10); AfxMessageBox(sTest); for(int i = 0; i <= dwLengthOfInstallDirectory; i++) { sInstallDirectory[i] = sInstallDirectoryUNI[i]; } sInstallDirectory[i++] = NULL; AfxMessageBox(sInstallDirectory); } else { AfxMessageBox("Read Reg Entry Failed"); CErrorHandler Error1; DWORD dwLastError; dwLastError = GetLastError(); Error1.ResolveError(dwLastError); } -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Reg Query Problem Canopener29-Dec-01 6:19 Canopener 29-Dec-01 6:19  Try this code... CString GetUnstallPath(){ HKEY hKey; DWORD dwSize; TCHAR szInstallDirectory[_MAX_PATH]; CString sTmp; // First off, see if the Reg key exists, if so if (::RegOpenKey(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "SOFTWARE\\RCAS\\UninstallInfo", &hKey) != ERROR_SUCCESS) { sTmp = ""; return sTmp; // empty string or error handling } // Get the Value from the Registry if(::RegQueryValueEx(hKey, "InstallDirectory", NULL, NULL, (LPBYTE)szInstallDirectory, &dwSize) != ERROR_SUCCESS ) { ::RegCloseKey(hKey); sTmp = ""; return sTmp; // empty string or error handling } ::RegCloseKey(hKey); // Add a zero termintion szValue[dwSize] = '\0'; sTmp.Format("%s",szInstallDirectory); // or sTmp=szInstallDirectory return sTmp; } This assums that the Reg Entry is a "normal" string and does not need to be expanded. hope this helps Re: Reg Query Problem Michael Dunn29-Dec-01 6:40 Michael Dunn 29-Dec-01 6:40  Peter Liddle wrote: DWORD dwLengthOfInstallDirectory = NULL; You need to set that to the size of your buffer before calling RegQueryValueEx(). As it is now, you're telling it that you have a buffer of size 0, so it'll never return any data. --Mike-- My really out-of-date homepage Buffy's on. Gotta go, bye!

Installation Type Matt Newman29-Dec-01 3:29 Matt Newman 29-Dec-01 3:29  I have almost finished a program and I want to create a setup App. I was wondering should I go with MS's Installer thingy, use Self-extracting, or a cab file type installation. I don't care which one is easier I am just wondering what you guys would suggest. - Matt Newman - Matt Newman -Sonork ID: 100.11179:BestSnowman Re: Installation Type Tim Smith29-Dec-01 3:49 Tim Smith 29-Dec-01 3:49  IMHO, Window's Installer is where things are moving. It has some drawbacks. First would be that older systems would have to download the installer programm (1.4meg) if they don't have the installer installed. Now, for a free MSI option, you can use the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer. Tim Smith Descartes Systems Sciences, Inc. Re: Installation Type Matt Newman29-Dec-01 6:06 Matt Newman 29-Dec-01 6:06  I was think of it but wasn't sure.

MSI is great for stuff like Office or VC7, which have a million features. If you just have an EXE and a couple DLLs, there is zero reason to impose MSI (and its 1.5MB download) on your users. For the CP SearchBar, which is one COM server and a couple other files, I just wrote my own simple installer that prompts for the install dir and drops the files there, and registers the DLL. I then put them in a self-extractor using WinZip. The whole procedure took maybe half a day. I can send you the installer source if you like. --Mike-- My really out-of-date homepage Buffy's on.

(With MFC you just set m_nTimeOut to the required timeout in ms before you call Connect()). I know you can use setsockopt to set the send and receive timeouts, but is there any way to set the connection timeout? Many thanks, Peter Pearson Re: winsocks connection timeout Mike Nordell29-Dec-01 7:52 Mike Nordell 29-Dec-01 7:52  I know you can use setsockopt to set the send and receive timeouts, but is there any way to set the connection timeout? This isn't really a winsock question but more a common sockets question, isn't it? If setsockopt works, why do you want to find another way to do it? Maybe there is some obscure WSA* function to do it, but why bother? /Mike when will OnDraw function l be EXECUTED? AnonymousBabe@usa.net28-Dec-01 21:04 AnonymousBabe@usa.net 28-Dec-01 21:04  when will the function execute? i have set a breakpoint in the first line, but program doest step into. in fact, i want to Draw something in OnIntialUpdate() function, but MSDN said it won't be useful, becoz when the function finished, it will send a WM_PAINT cause the Client to be invalidated, all the drawings will disappear. how can i finish it? one is the other who absorbs the thoughts of others Re: when will OnDraw function l be EXECUTED? l a u r e n28-Dec-01 21:52 l a u r e n 28-Dec-01 21:52  just a thought are you trying to draw in a control view? (ie, clistview, ctreeview, etc) 'cos if you are it never gets called ... use the OnUpdate() function instead might be off the mark but its a thought --- "every year we invent better idiot proof systems and every year they invent better idiots ... and the linux zealots still aren't being sterilized" Re: when will OnDraw function l be EXECUTED?

Christian Graus29-Dec-01 0:06 Christian Graus 29-Dec-01 0:06  Do you have an OnPaint as well ? Have you tried drawing in OnDraw and see if it appears or not ? Have you tried Spy++ to see what messages the window is recieving ??

Well, looking through the code you posted, it seems to me - no, wait.... ooze wrote: it seems no need to write OnPaint I have a vague recollection that overriding OnPaint stops OnDraw from being called - that was why I asked. I just created a vanilla SDI app and my OnDraw is getting called. Did you try Spy ++ ? If you still can't see it, you should probably post some code, but if OnPaint and OnDraw are both not getting called, I don't see how your window can *be* at all. BTW you want OnPrepareDC instead of OnDraw anyhow, if you want to avoid flicker.
