I`m trying to write SDI MFC application with view class CRichEditCtrl. In my CMyAppView I used GetRichEditCtrl() to access the main RichEditCtrl. Now I want to create an independent class to write to RichEditCtrl lets call it CTextEditor.
What I don`t understand is how to tell the class to find CRichEditCtrl as I`m not able to use GetRichEditCtrl() outside the CMyApp class. I`ve tried to do something like:
<br />
int CTextEditor::WriteText(CRichEditCtrl *wnd,CString str,CHARFORMAT cf)<br />
{<br />
int nOldLines = 0, nNewLines = 0, nScroll = 0;<br />
long nInsertionPoint = 0;<br />
nOldLines = wnd->GetLineCount();<br />
nInsertionPoint = wnd->GetWindowTextLength();<br />
wnd->SetSel(nInsertionPoint, -1);<br />
wnd->SetSelectionCharFormat(cf);<br />
wnd->ReplaceSel(str);<br />
nNewLines = wnd->GetLineCount();<br />
nScroll = nNewLines - nOldLines;<br />
wnd->LineScroll(nScroll);<br />
return 0;<br />
} <br />
And then call it from CMyapView like this:
<br />
CHARFORMAT cf;<br />
cf.dwEffects = CFE_BOLD;<br />
cf.dwMask = CFM_BOLD;<br />
cf.cbSize = sizeof(CHARFORMAT);<br />
CTextEditor editor;<br />
editor.WriteText(&GetRichEditCtrl(),"Mytext",cf); <br />
But I get the unresolved externals error..
What am I doing wrong?
Please help - no clue bout how to use pointers...

Can you paste error text ?

Here`s what the build log says...

It seems like, somehow CTextEditor class definition is not included in project. Just curious to know, whether you have added cpp containing CTextEditor in to your project.
Because, from error text, its seems so.

If you hand me one of those beers I'll give you a pointer 
The very simplest way would be to not show your app's main window.
Thanks for the beer

I know we can just hide the main Window but I was looking at a more elegant solution.

It’s rather simple to write an unmanaged C++ application that crashes when it performs a callback. It’s impossible to write a managed application that does the same, thanks to delegates. - Jeff Prosise

Console app with hidden console window.
A service application (but has to be run from the service manager).
What if you make a Win32 app and never create a window?

I did try this and it seems to work. I created a message loop but didn't create any window. Would this affect the application in any way?

I would think if it runs it's fine
As long as there's a way to terminate the process it shouldn't matter.
Windows service applications run just fine with absolutely NO UI. The only difference is the
added entry points so the SCM can control them.
You may not even need a message loop.

Have you tried to do this from a Win32 based console app?

I think that's not allowed on Windows.

I am trying to write an app that will play a movie and allow me to draw on top of it. I have gotten to the point where I can play the movie and using CCLientDC I can draw lines and shapes on the window while the movie is paused. My problem is that as soon as I start the play back of the movie again everything that I jsut drew dissappears. I tried saving all the info about the lines and then in the OnDraw function redrawing them everytime the movie needs to be refreshed but that doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?
My environment is VC++ 6.0
thanks,
Mike

You can't use the same window since the movie playing is drawin in that one. You would have to create another window on top of (Z order) the one the movie is drawing to and draw into the new window.

An alternative is, if you have control over the video renderer (you have access to each frame
of video before it gets blted to the window) then you can draw stored shapes offscreen on the
video frame and then blt it. This makes it nicely flicker-free as well.

Does anyone know why the syntax for exporting constants in a DLL is different from exporting variables or functions?
Take the following code snippet for instance:
extern "C"
{
extern const IID IID_IX =
{0x32bb8320, 0xb41b, 0x11cf, {0xa6, 0xbb, 0x00, 0x80, 0xc7, 0xb2, 0xd6, 0x82}};
}
Why do the extern statements need to be nested?
|
|
|
|
|
extern "C" is not exporting it is a compiler directive that eliminates name decoration.

Hi all,
I want to input joystick to my code,which is very simple smile.gif.I searched the net but find out that people use DirectInput , etc... but i want a very simple application, for example like when you pull right, a variable in the code changes from 0 to 10,whne you pull left another variable changes from 2 to 8, etc... I use VC++ v6.0, no .NET,no C# please. here i send a sample code I wrote in which i wanna input joystick for sometry. thank you everyone.
[code]
#include <time.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void wait ( double seconds )
{
clock_t endwait;
endwait = clock () + seconds * CLK_TCK ;
while (clock() < endwait) {}
}
int main()
{
double t;
double delt;
double delf;
double function;
cout<< "Derivative of the function : "<<endl;
cin>>delf ;
cout<< "Time deviation : "<<endl;
cin>>delt;
t=0.0;
function=0.0;
do {
function = function+ delf*delt ;
// here i want to add joystick reading here
// joy1= ....???
//joy2= .....???
// like : when i move left,it reads 5 for joy1, and when i move right it reads 3 for joy2, etc...
// moreover,it eould be superb if also i can read the value as how much i move joystick,
//for example, when i move it from center to left end,joy1 value increases from 0 to 8.
// PLEASE HELP //
wait (delt);
t=t+delt;
cout<<" Function is "<

I am also looking for infomation on how to involve a joystick with my VC++/MFC application.. Using VS2005
I think we need to use the DirectX SDK with VC++ for joystick.. is this correct?

Check out DirectInput in the DirectX SDK

Hello,
I came across a strange problem. I have a dll which creates an instance of a class. This class inherits from a template singleton.
The singleton template:
template <class T>
class CSingleton
{
public:
static T* GetInstance()
{
if (!m_pInstance)
m_pInstance = new T;
return m_pInstance;
}
void Destroy()
{
if (m_pInstance)
delete m_pInstance;
m_pInstance = NULL;
}
protected:
CSingleton() { }
virtual ~CSingleton() { }
private:
static T* m_pInstance;
};
template <class T> T* CSingleton<T>::m_pInstance = NULL;
The class is a simple empty class:
class CMyClass : public CSingleton<CMyClass>
{
friend CSingleton<CMyClass>;
protected:
CMyClass();
~CMyClass();
};
And then I have an exported function that creates and return the instance of this class:
#ifdef DLL_EXPORTS
#define DLL_API __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define DLL_API __declspec(dllimport)
#endif // DLL_EXPORT
DLL_API CMyClass* CreateClass();
(the function simply call GetInstance of CMyClass and returns the pointer)
When I call this function from the code of my executable, it returns well a pointer to the instance but the strange thing is that the static m_pInstance member of CSingleton is NULL.
I used the debugger and this member is correct inside the CreateClass function but as soon as I come back in the code of the executable, then this member is NULL.
It means that if I try to call Destroy, the memory won't be released. Worse, if I call GetInstance, I will certainly have an unexpected behavior (the instance will be created a second time)
It has probably something to do with the fact that this member is static. But I don't understand clearly what's happening there. Is there a workaround ?
Thank you.
