Attempting to compile my first IDL I keep getting the following error( using Visual Studio 7.1):-
Corba_Square error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Invoking TAO_IDL Compiler on c:\ACE_wrappers\Tao\examples\Simple\Corba_Square\Corba_Square\Square.idl"
The IDL compiles and generates the files when included in an example project supplied. I have checked all the settings and cant find anything to fix.
Does anyone know how to get rid of this error.
I am just trying to setup a project that can be used as a starting point for other projects (all the build, compiler and linker settings in place etc).

Tree controls are usually alligned at left, what I need is a tree control which expands like an organizational chart, (like hierarcy) like this
.................N
.....+++++++++++++++++
.....N.........................N
.+++++++++.........++++++++
N............N..........N.........N
where N's are nodes that can be expanded.
Please ignore the dots they are for just making allignment.
Please Help.

Hi.
I’m going to rebuild an Dialog based VC++ project into another. I would like to export and import some dialog resources between the two projects. Any idea how to do that except for cut and past in the .rc file manually…

Open up the project
select Dialog Resource from the tree
COPY
then close the project
Open the Destination project in the same studio window
Goto the Resource tree
PASTE
Trick is to do this in the same Studio window (not two windows opened and copy from one and paste in other)
hope it helps

Even easier.
Open up new project.
Switch to resource view.
Then load in previous rc file.
The old resources appear in the workspace.
Now right drag them to the new project,
and pick "Copy" from the popup menu which appears.
Nice and easy for several resources.

Hi all:
I have a bunch of .wma files which is in "C:\Downloads" folder, and I copy them to another folder. So now there has two folders which have the same content concerning the .wma files.
What gets it really strange is that in details view within Explorer they have totally different amount of columns. In "C:\Downloads" folder these .wma files has lots of column such as "Artist", "Album", "release year" etc,. But in the other folder it only has "Type" and "modification time" two columns. How this difference could be happened since there's no environment differences, I really eager to know!
Thanks!!!

You can set folder details on a per folder basis,
just right click on the listview header in explorer and select what you want to see.

You can switch on and off the columns that you want to be displayed via the menu item 'View->Choose Columns...', in Explorer. Or right click on the column header and select the appropriate column information.

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to customise the 'Open' dialog so that the user can select a Folder to 'open' instead of a file?
Also on a normal 'Open' dialog is it possible to disable the browse options so I can 'force' the user to select files from only the current location?
many thanks,
Andy

to select a folder instead of a file, change the flags you pass the open dialog by the OPENFILENAME structure.
to disable the "browse location" functionnality, i don't think it is possible.

This is a functionality I've been trying to get too. I wnat the user to select a folder only but I cannot find any combination of flags that allows me to close the dialog without actually selecting a file, or typing a filename into the "File name" edit box. Ideally I don't even want the "File name" edit box to appear on the dialog.
I have successfully used SHGetPathFromIDList() to select a folder only but prefer CFileDialog as SHGetPathFromIDList() does not remember the last folder selected.
Are there some undocumented flags that limit CFileDialog to opening folders instead of files?

What's wrong with SHBrowseForFolder, it does exactly what you want. Fiddling with BFFM_ENABLEOK in your CallBack fuction you can force a user to select only files from the current location.

cheers Arjan,
I've got the SHBrowseForFolder working, however I can't do the 'fiddling' in the callback function as the user doesn't select the files straight away.
I've investigated this a bit further and I've found a solution in the CFileDialog class on the m_ofn structure, on this we can set the Flag variable to 'OFN_NOCHANGEDIR' which according to MSDN
"Restores the current directory to its original value if the user changed the directory while searching for files.
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP: This flag is ineffective for GetOpenFileName."
unfortunately I'm working on XP so I can't use this, so what I'm going to do is manually go through the selected directory get a list of all files which are of the right type and then populate a list box with these files. A Bit long winded but at present I don't have any other ideas.
If you have any ideas or comments on this please let me know,
thanks,
Andy

Hi,
My question is really two-fold, I'm more looking for direction that actual code answers!
First, I want to use display a clock in my applicatio that uses an atomic clock to sync its time with. What is the recommended way to do this/links to useful info?
Second, I also need to display the time of other timezones, say I'm in LA, and want to diplay the time for London and NY. Does any body have links to information on how one would go about determing the time in other timezones,area. My biggest issue is with how the user can pick his location and how the software knows the timezone/etc at that location?
Many thanks in advance,
Mark

Modern versions of Windows (XP, 2003) come preconfigured to contact time.windows.com using the Simple Network Time Protocol[^]. If you join a machine to a 2000 or 2003 Active Directory domain, the machine then gets its time from the domain controller.
Second, I also need to display the time of other timezones, say I'm in LA, and want to diplay the time for London and NY. Does any body have links to information on how one would go about determing the time in other timezones,area.
My World Clock[^] sample application does this. Source code is available at that link - it's a C# application but uses OS function calls for the actual time conversions. The tricky bit is handling daylight savings time - otherwise it would be a simple offset calculation.

You'd have to have some kind of database of locations and the corresponding time zones.

Wow, cool, many thanks for the link, great article!
The API function should do the trick just fine, I'll scan the net a bit to see if I can come up with an implementation someone did for 9x, otherwise this feature just won't be supported on those OS'es
Many thanks again!

You can use RFC-1035, RFC-867, or RFC-868 for this. I've found examples of each to be plentiful via Google.

Dear All,
I am vc++ newbie. I need to create virtual directory in IIS 5.0/6.0 from vc++ 6 application I have this sample. http://www.installsite.org/pages/en/isp_net.htm[^] It is gives lots of errors when i comple it in VC++ 6.0. Can any one send me a sample code to create Virtual ditectory in IIS 5.0/6.0 from vc++ 6 application.
Thanks in Advance

You probably need an updated Platform SDK. Download it from Microsoft SDK Update[^]. Tell the installer to register with VC++ 6 if requested.
If that doesn't help try defining _WIN32_WINNT to 0x0500 before including any headers (e.g. at the start of your stdafx.h).
