what i under stood from his post is he might be looking to import one dialog box from another projects' rc file into his new project.
so he can open that rc file by importing it into his current workspace and copy paste the controls from the required dialog to the new dialog.

No Chandu,
he create one more .rc file in his worksapce. pls read his blog.He create one MFC workspace where .rc file is already created. now he want to generate one more rc file and according to my knowledge it is not possible.
Yes U Can ...If U Can ,Dream it , U can do it ...ICAN

yah shilpi, what you said is correct.
it is not possible to have two RC files in one project,
but now atleast iam unable to understand, why at all he requires two RC files in one project?

Unless something has changed over the years, you can just go in and include it manually in the existing ‘.rc’ file using ‘#include”, I think, just like a C or C++ header.
If you need to be sure how it is done, then just add an external file like a bitmap to your ‘.rc’ through the IDE and then open the ‘.rc’ (in text mode) to see what statement it added. Heck, come to think about it; that is all you should need to do to add an additional ‘.rc’ file within the existing file.
I once need to create the same version of an application with different logos and about information (sister companies) and it X was defined (for project) then X companies information would compile and show, otherwise company A’s information would show.

Anybody know how to get CPU temperature from the system.
what the function can support this issue.
Thanks
|
|
|
|
|
not all machines can support reading of the cpu temperature, it's a function of your BIOS software. Sometimes the bios manufacturer will supply dll's that you can reference to call the required function and return the details.

I am using a dynamic array that I often need to resize. I've tried a few way to resize it and so far this is what works. But their MUST be a better way.
Ideas?
int *n = NULL; // Pointer to int, initialize to nothing.
n = new int[2]; // allocate needed room
/////////////////////////////////////
/// Time to make more room!!
int *temp = NULL; //Create a temp 
temp = new temp[4]; //allocate
for(register int i=0; i<4; i++){ //transfer data to temp
temp[i] = n[i];
}
delete n; //delete old
n = new int[4]; //make new one
for(register int i=0; i<4; i++){ //transfer the data back
n[i] = temp[i];
}
delete temp; //delete temp
|

why don't you use vector<int> in this case you need not to worry about resizing it grows automatically
int the above question when you delete temp
write delete[] temp as it is an array the above code leads to memory leakage

I can barely begin to tell you what is wrong with that.
1) Use ‘vector’ and all your problems will go away.
2) If you must provided your own (do not double copy the data):
2.1) Allocate the new amount of space required.
2.2) Copy the old data to the new data space.
2.3) Free the old space.
2.4) Assign the pointer to the new space.
In C you would have another option (realloc) that if it failed, you would have to resort to (2) above, but I do not know a way to do that in C++.
P.S. delete[] n;

I think I will use vector. But just to check, here is my own way revised.
number *n - NULL; //create
n = new number[2]; //allocate
////We need more room
number *temp = NULL; //create temp
temp = new number[4]; //allocate
for(register int i=0; i<4; i++){ //transfer old into temp
temp[i] = n[i];
}
delete[] n; //delete old
n = temp; // point to new data
|

Yes, that is the idea; short and simple. The only thing I would change in the example is the assignment to NULL, because you immediately assign a value to it after the declaration.
number* n = new number[2];
number* temp = new number[4];
Those are shorter and make more since to me.
P.S. The register keyword is unneeded, because most modern compilers are better at picking register variables than we are and it is free to ignore the suggestion, which is all that keyword is.
Good Luck!

How do you get the width of a scrollbar assocaiated to a given control?
|
|
|
|
|
It depends on the type of scrollbar.
If it's a standard scrollbar, you can use GetSystemMetrics().
If it's a scrollbar control, you can use GetWindowRect().
For scrollbars implemented by custom controls, you're on your own

in MFC afx.h Ln366,I see this:
#define ENSURE_THROW(cond, exception) \
do { int __afx_condVal=!!(cond); ASSERT(__afx_condVal); if(!(__afx_condVal)){exception;} } while (false)
why do{...}while(false)?
is that equal to this:
#define ENSURE_THROW(cond, exception) \
int __afx_condVal=!!(cond); ASSERT(__afx_condVal); if(!(__afx_condVal)){exception;}
and why use "int __afx_condVal=!!(cond);",is this ensure the value of __afx_condVal is either 1 or 0?

Thanks Alot!

Howdy guys, just a quick question about a small problem I am having in a little chat application I made for the sake of learning.
Currently I want my app to minimize to my tray displaying its icon. I want the window to be hidden completly, I dont want it to appear minimized in the taskbar. If the user wants to open the app he can double click the icon in the tray. I got the animation working, my icon loads in the try, however I cannot hide the window. It minimizes to the task bar below making it appear "miniized". It should be hidden no?
Currently I am using this command I assumed it would hide everything. Any obvious thoughts come to mind on what I might be doing wrong?
ShowWindow(m_hWnd, SW_HIDE);
If you want I can display more code just let me know!
Thanks Alot!
Cliff

OK going to look into this more. Seems like alot of work just to hide the window out of the taskbar.
|
|
|
|

Are you sure you're passing the right HWND to ShowWindow()?
What's style and extended styles does the app's main window have?

Yea I have m_hWnd as my main window. I'm passing these styles apon its creation.
WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW|WS_VISIBLE
This gets passed into a win32 wrapper class constructor and is saved to m_dwStyles;
Here is my extended style
WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE
m_hWnd = CreateWindowEx (WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,<br />
m_pClassName, m_pWindowTitle,<br />
m_dwStyles,<br />
m_pRect->left,<br />
m_pRect->top,<br />
m_pRect->right-m_pRect->left,<br />
m_pRect->bottom-m_pRect->top,<br />
NULL, <br />
m_hMenu,<br />
m_hInstance, <br />
(void *)this);
Mark you always seem to save me! Hope you have some ideas for this one. Thank you sir. =)

hmm... I use the same style and, like DavidCrow (except in a different order),
I just do
Shell_NotifyIcon(...)
ShowWindow(SW_HIDE)
Any other window stuff going on?

I had wanted to have the client drop to the tray and post a balloon when someone messags you. My tray icon works but the apps tays in the taskbar as minimized.
Could it be my animation?
Heres everything I have in the minimize function
void ChatApp::miniMizeTray(const int icon)<br />
{<br />
ANIMATIONINFO anii;<br />
anii.cbSize = sizeof(anii);<br />
SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETANIMATION, sizeof(anii), &anii, 0);<br />
<br />
RECT desktopRect, thisWindowRect;<br />
GetTrayWndRect(&desktopRect);<br />
GetWindowRect(m_hWnd, &thisWindowRect);<br />
<br />
if (anii.iMinAnimate)<br />
{<br />
DrawAnimatedRects(m_hWnd, IDANI_CAPTION, &thisWindowRect, &desktopRect);<br />
}<br />
<br />
ShowWindow(m_hWnd, SW_HIDE);<br />
<br />
NOTIFYICONDATA nid;<br />
ZeroMemory(&nid, sizeof(nid));<br />
nid.cbSize = sizeof(nid);<br />
nid.hWnd = m_hWnd;<br />
nid.uID = 0;<br />
nid.uFlags = NIF_ICON | NIF_MESSAGE | NIF_TIP | NIF_INFO;<br />
nid.uCallbackMessage = WM_USER;<br />
nid.hIcon = LoadIcon(m_hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(icon));<br />
nid.uTimeout = 1000;<br />
nid.dwInfoFlags = NIIF_INFO;<br />
lstrcpy(nid.szTip, "Double-Click To Maximize.");<br />
lstrcpy(nid.szInfo, "ChatApp has been minimized to the system tray.\nClick this icon to restore the application.");<br />
lstrcpy(nid.szInfoTitle, "Chat App");<br />
<br />
Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD, &nid);<br />
}
If I dont get back to you today I will definately on Monday. I'm going to make another run through the code and see if I find anything. Ill come back in the afternoon to see if you guys have any ideas. Thanks for the help!
Cliff

Just for the heck of it, maybe try Shell_NotifyIcon() without the
NIF_INFO flag. Same result?
