I would create the dialog in a thread, use a CStringArray for the contents of the combo box and create a function to refresh the combo.
_beginthread( ShowDialog, 0, ID_DIALOG_COMBO );
LRESULT ShowDialog( LPVOID pVoid )
{
CDialog Dlg;
Dlg.Create( pVoid );
Dlg.DoModal();
return TRUE;
}
or
CMyDialog* pDlg = new CMyDialog;
pDlg->... // initialize members
_beginthread( ShowDialog, 0, (void*)pDlg );
LRESULT ShowDialog( LPVOID pVoid )
{
CDialog* pDlg = (CDialog*)pVoid ;
pDlg->DoModal();
delete pDlg;
return TRUE;
}
The pointer method is preferable because you can store the pointer(s) and control the dialog using these pointers. Make a function to refresh your combo and call it through any initialized pointers. Maybe use a CPtrArray.

Why is that Visual C++'s GUI knows about sqrt yet the compiler doesn't? 
As I edit my source I typed in sqrt and as I start to
type in the paramters the GUI presents me with 3 different prototypes of sqrt ... I think cool Visual C++ knows about sqrt ... so I typed sqrt( myDouble ); as per
the GUI. Yet I get a compiler error?

Because the IDE searchs all the headers in the include paths, but the compiler requires that you include them. It's probably math.h, or cmath ( which, if it works, is preferred ). Also cmath may require you use std::sqrt. All of this is a guess, but I am pretty sure that math.h at least will be the right one, and it's certainly a missing #include.

My code looks kinda like this ...
#include "math.h"
#include "stdafx.h"
.
.
.
double BlahBlah::Blah_Abs ( double real, double img ) {
double rc = real * real + img * img;
return sqrt( rc );
}
.
.
.
Yet the compiler does not complain about not be able to find math.h in the include path so I must assume that VC++ knows about math.h and since the compiler errors on sqrt ( rc ); I guess that sqrt( double ) is not declared in math.h

include the math.h file
I bet it will work.

Just to reiterate and add my voice to the cacophany, the intellisense parses all include paths, but the compiler will only compile if you actually include the bits you need in your code.
I suggest that it's a wise course of action when people answer your question to try the suggested solution before arguing about it.

I am including math.h but codeproject thinks le math.h ge is somekind of

And WTF is this ...

My apologies - you didn't check the 'display message as is' option, nor did you use the buttons above the emoticons which would replace a < with a < and so on, making it show OK. As a result I presumed you were saying what you said in the first place, as did all the other people who replied.
I see you have edited the code now  )
#include "math.h"
#include "stdafx.h"
Anything before stdafx.h is ignored. Move it down and it will work.

hi everybody,
i had a sdi project, based on treeview. i want to setup context popup menu in such way so that the popup menu only pops up whenever the user right click on a node of the tree, sorta like how the popup menu works in windows explorer. any suggestion is welcome.. thanx in advance.
|
|

|

you will need to setup a handler for a message that is reflected from the tree view back to the parent. Check this message, NM_RCLICK. Then you need to use the tree controls hittest functions to determine if the mouse position is on one of the nodes in question. Once you have that you can display your context menu. Hope that helps. For more info search msdn for the NM_RCLICK message and also lookup message reflection for a broader overview of the topic. Good luck.

I've got a program that uses mail slots. My problem is that when I send a mail message to the local machine the message is recieved twice. I have narrowed this down to my sending code by changing it to send to the microsoft messenger service. The messeneger service recieves the message twice too. However, it I use net send to send the message it is only recieved once. I think net send uses the NetMessageBufferSend function, but I should still only recieve once. If I send to a remote machine with the same code, it is only recieved once. I have tested it on two machines and both have the problem. My code to send is as follows:
{
int nResult;
HANDLE pHandle;
DWORD dwBytesSent;
CString strMailslotName;
strMailslotName = _T("\\\\");
strMailslotName += m_sComputerName;
strMailslotName += _T("\\mailslot\\messngr");
pHandle = CreateFile( strMailslotName, GENERIC_WRITE, FILE_SHARE_READ, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL );
if( pHandle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )
{
AfxMessageBox("Error accessing mail slot \"" + strMailslotName + "\"");
CloseHandle( pHandle );
return;
}
else
{
nResult = WriteFile( pHandle, strMsgText, ( DWORD )strMsgText.GetLength(), &dwBytesSent, NULL );
if( nResult == 0 || ( DWORD )strMsgText.GetLength() != dwBytesSent )
{
CString Error;
LPVOID lpMsgBuf;
if (!::FormatMessage(
FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER |
FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM |
FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS,
NULL,
GetLastError(),
MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL,SUBLANG_DEFAULT),
(LPTSTR) &lpMsgBuf,
0,
NULL ))
{
AfxMessageBox("An unknown error occured.");
}
else
{
Error = "Error writing to mailslot: ";
Error += (LPCTSTR)lpMsgBuf;
AfxMessageBox(Error);
}
LocalFree( lpMsgBuf );
}
}
CloseHandle( pHandle );
}
Any ideas whats wrong with this? I don't see how it could be sending two messages. m_sComputerName is the local computer's name.
Thanks for you help!

This is actually by design. Sending on a mailslot goes across all the available protocals installed on the machine. This means if you have both TCP/IP and IPX installed, you'd get two messages. If you peruse the documentaion more carefully you'll see that this is documented. You need to include some kind of ID with the message to you can throw out duplicates. Also note that this protocal does not ensure order of deliverly. Just because msg 1 went out before msg 2 doesn't mean you'll get msg 1 before msg 2. In testing i've found that 99% of the time you'll get them in order, but the documentation say's it this isn't guaranteed. If you need further help, let me know.

How do I specify the Rect tangle for my new CViews?
I have tried this ...
<br />
void CMyView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC)<br />
{<br />
COragomy_IIDoc* pDoc = GetDocument();<br />
ASSERT_VALID(pDoc);<br />
<br />
CRect rect = new CRect( 0, 0, 320, 200 );<br />
pDoc->m_clientRect = rect;<br />
... but it doesn't work.

Try to see what exact error you've got. I used ShellExecute and it worked fine wherever the file is located

Hello,
I am trying to create an email application in which users send HTML emails to one another. I am debating at present how to create the GUI for when a user composes the email. The problem is that I have to convert the email when it is sent, into HTML.
I first thought of CRichEditView, but that can't convert a formatted message into HTML. I looked at CHTMLView, but I think that all this does is provide a read-only browsing service with the Web Browser control.
Is there any way I can use CHTMLView to convert a text message into HTML? Or does anyone know of a library/DLL which can parse formatted text into HTML?
I would be very grateful for guidance here.
Thanks,
Trimtrom

Formatted text can easily be converted into HTML depending
on exactly what you want. For example,
CString convertToHTML(CString s)
{
return CString("<PRE>") + s + "</PRE>";
}
will do it. However, that doesn't allow the browser to reformat
line breaks. to do that simply search your string for any
blank lines (use the Find function in CString) and replace them
with "<p>".
Oh, and one other thing, you might have to hack grough the
string replacing special characters with their equivelents
in HTML. Specifically "<" with < ">" with > and " with
" (?? not sure of the exact spelling of this.)
Note that you don't need to put all the <HTML>, <HEAD> or
<BODY> tags as they are all optional. Though theoretically,
but not in practice, you are supposed to start all HTML with
the following tag:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
(assuming you are using English.)
If you need more complex formatting, you need to pull together
some sort of GUI to manipulate the text (i.e., have a bold button
insert <b></b>) If that is the case you need to look at
CHTMLEditCtrl.

Thanks for the reply.
I am using Visual C++ 6.0, and I have had a look all over the Help, and I can't find anything on CHTMLEditCtrl. Did this come in with version 7.0?? It sounds like something I would want.
I think basically I am looking for some control to turn text into HTML the same way the RichEditCtrl writes RTF files.
Any comments appreciated,
