Hello Friends,
I am trying to change the Desktop Wallpaper programatically. For that I am using IActiveDesktop Interface.But not getting success, I am not getting any compile or run time error but it fails to set the wallpaper.
I am using the following code to get the path of the current Wallpaper and to set the new Wallpaper.
But I am getting only one string each time I call the GetWallpaper(), It is a follow "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Pictures\logo.jpg"
HRESULT hr;
int Count = 0;
IActiveDesktop *pActiveDesktop;
CoInitialize(NULL);
hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_ActiveDesktop, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
IID_IActiveDesktop, (void**)&pActiveDesktop);
WCHAR Wallpaper[MAX_PATH];
wcscpy(Wallpaper,L"c:\\a.bmp");
pActiveDesktop->SetWallpaper(Wallpaper,0);
pActiveDesktop->ApplyChanges(AD_APPLY_ALL | AD_APPLY_FORCE);
pActiveDesktop->GetDesktopItemCount(&Count,0);
pActiveDesktop->GetWallpaper(Wallpaper,MAX_PATH,0);
I also use the SystemParametersInfo API to do the same thing. But the problem is that it only wotks with .bmp file.
If you have any IDEA please tell me. Thnx in advance.

I see the code it same as i am using. And problem still persist.
Is there any way I can use SystemParametersInfo API to set .jpg or .jpeg images as wallpaper or retrive the path of that.

Pls have a look @ this. This work for me
#include <windows.h>
#include <wininet.h>
#include <shlobj.h>
//Main window procedure WinMain
int WINAPI WinMain (HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int iShowCmd)
{
CoInitialize (NULL) ;
HRESULT hr;
IActiveDesktop *pActiveDesktop;
//Create an instance of the Active Desktop
hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_ActiveDesktop, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
IID_IActiveDesktop, (void**)&pActiveDesktop);
//Insert code to call the IActiveDesktop methods
LPCWSTR wcPath = L"C:\\123.jpg" ;
if (pActiveDesktop -> SetWallpaper (wcPath, 0) != S_OK)
{
//The method has failed...
}
pActiveDesktop -> ApplyChanges (AD_APPLY_ALL) ;
// Call the Release method
pActiveDesktop->Release();
CoUninitialize () ;
return 0 ;
}

thnx,
When I check the error code after SetWallpaper it show '0'. that means "The operation completed successfully.". But wallpaper doesn't changed.
I am using like this.
if (pActiveDesktop -> SetWallpaper (Wallpaper, 0) != S_OK)
{
dError = GetLastError();
}
Can you tell me what can be the problem.
|
|
|
|
|
did u call the pActiveDesktop -> ApplyChanges (AD_APPLY_ALL) ; ?
Ajay
|
|
|
|
|
Yes using like this
pActiveDesktop->ApplyChanges(AD_APPLY_ALL | AD_APPLY_FORCE);
But its not working. and even GetWallpaper() show me the same string as I mention above. I tried to find it on google ,but everyone uses the code like me and it works.

Images that are not BMP (JPG, GIF...) will be converted to a temporary bitmap when you're selecting it from Display Properties, and this feature is functional when Active Desktop is activated.
You can find the temporary bmp file on
<windows drive="">:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Wallpaper1.bmp

yup. I know that. but I am using .bmp file right now. And not able to set the .bmp file as the wallpaper.
If I use the Following code to set the wallpaper it works file. But it doesn't work with .jpg or .gif file.
SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER,100, Wallpaper, 0);
Is there any way I can use the above code to set .gif or .jpg image as wallpaper.

Has Active Desktop been enabled?
Your code worked fine for me.

hi
how to change the color of header of list control. i am new for mfc
thank u
malik
|
|
|
|
|
There are two way to achieve this
1) By Subclassing the Header Control class CHeaderCtrl. This would be the generic way of achiveing the same and further you can reuse this class as well whereever required.
2)You can override the WM_PAINT and WM_CTLCOLOR or WM_DRAWITEM message etc of CHeaderCtrl based on your requirement.
You can get some more knowledge from the Code project link

What is causing the crash/access violation.
Could any body guide me in figuring out as to what may be causing the crash??
That would be of great help.

int A[10], *Ptr;
ptr = (int*)malloc(10*sizeof(int));
what is the difference between array 'A' and 'Ptr' with respect to memory?

A is allocated in stack where as the memory location pointed by Ptr is allocated in Heap.
|
|
|
|
|
when we come out of the block without calling free(Ptr).
what will happen? Will 'Ptr' memory get released or not?
|
|
|
|
|
It will not be released. That memory will reside there as long as your application is running. Such wastage of memory in a program are called memory leaks.

I wanna design a programme with a dialogue which has a funtionality of placing some Edit controls in which you can input text.Those Edit controls are laid in a rectangle that can be scrolled with a Vertical Scrollbar.My recent thought is that laying some Edit controls in a picture control and setting a Vertical Scrollbar by myself to scroll that picture control and those Edit controls inside that picture control.
My programming platform is VC6.0.The language is English.My level of ability in programming is round middle.
I wanna enter Microsoft Corporation for my fortune

Hi,
I have a unit testing framework as a console application that generates its output like compilers. (for example: ..\src\cf4.c(23) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'is400cfg.h': No such file or directory)
I want to know how I can integrate this tool with Visual Studio IDE in a way to feed the output generated from this tool be feed to IDE. I want to see the outputs of this tool in Errors pane of Visual studio.
Best regard,

Im attempting to use a member function that takes a reference arg as a predicate for the stl findif algorithm. If I make the predicates arg a non reference type the code compiles, if I make it a reference it fails. Can anyone tell me how to get it working with a reference type argument?
I get a bunch of warnings and then
error C2529: '_Right' : reference to reference is illegal
Both versions are below
/********* this compiles ***************/
class A
{
public:
bool test(int i) {return true;}
};
deque<A> collection;
findif(collection.begin(), collection.end(), bind2nd(mem_fun_ref(&A::test), 5));
/*********second version with reference param to test() ****************/
class A
{
public:
bool test(int& i) {return true;}
};
deque<A> collection;
int iVal = 5;
findif(collection.begin(), collection.end(), bind2nd(mem_fun_ref(&A::test), iVal));
|
|
|
|
|
One solution is to use boost::bind() like this
find_if(collection.begin(), collection.end(), boost::bind(&A::test, _1, iVal));

basically, I'm having problems with those pests itoa and atoi.
the initial idea was to split a file into N different smaller files, each of them having their filenames sequencial (ie: 1.txt, 2.txt, ... N.txt)
what I have thought is:
[code]
int i = 1;
...
while(!inFile.eof())
{ ofstream outFile(i); //obviously, ofstream doesn't let me to do this
j=1;
while(j <= instances_per_file && !inFile.eof())
{ inFile >> s;
outFile << s << endl;
j++;
}
N++;
}
...
[/code]
currently using cygwin, but solution must be plataform/compiler independent.
any ideas how to convert int to string without itoa and sstream?
sorry if I posted on wrong place.
