Hey,

I have a for loop iterating through a Vector. When my program hits certain conditions it needs to do get the value of an element and add one to it.

I tried this but it didn't work:

PrimeNumber(Iter + 1) += 1;

It has to be the next element in the vector and it has to increment that next elements value by one! I've tried declaring an Iterator and using similar code -> *Iter + 1 += 1; but that still doesn't work Frown | :-(

Does anyone have any ideas on how to modify the content of a vector? Thanks for all the help in advance I appreciate it!

Smile | :)

Make sure you don't go beyond/access vector<>::end() when doing +1.

Attach the caption of the child window to the Frame

Hello,

How can I attach child window's caption to the frame window in the OnSize() Function?

Right when I maximize the child window it gets maximized without actually the caption getting merged with te frame window.
This is the code in the OnSize()
switch(nType)
{
case SIZE_MAXIMIZED :
{
CRect R;
GetParentFrame()->GetClientRect(R);
MoveWindow(R,true);
break;
}
}

Regards
Prithaa

It's already being done for you if you are using DocView architecture by MFC.

No I am nt using Doc -View Architecture and the caption doesn't get merged with the frame window.

What should be done?

Take a look in BOOL CChildFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs) . There is where I defined the captions for the "seconday views" on my project.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.

I have the caption initially when the window is created but when I maximize the child window the caption does not appear alongwith the frame window .
What should be done?

When you maiximize a chil window, it loses its own caption, and share the main frame caption, another thing is to fit the child window to the whole client area of the parent, but maximizing... nothing to do.

The call stack when execution reaches WinMain is as follows..

WinMain(HINSTANCE__ * 0x00400000, HINSTANCE__ * 0x00000000, char * 0x00141f09, int 1) line 27
WinMainCRTStartup() line 330 + 54 bytes
KERNEL32! 7c816fd7()

Press F10(I am using VC6) to see how execution starts in an MFC application. Step through the code. Don't forget there is a global CWinApp object too.

Registry Restore Using A Service

Hi,

I have implemented a service which will create and restore registry back ups.
Service runs under local system account.

I am able to take backup and restore in admin mode using the service.
But in Guest user mode I m unable to resore the Registry back up.

Any one can help me out in this.

hm.. i faced a similar problem last week.

The problem is that a windows service runs in a LOCAL SYSTEM account and not in the account in which the user is currently logged in. Hence, if you try to take backups under registry key HKCR then the registry back up would fail.

What you have to do under this condition is write a code something like this:

<br />
HKEY hKey;	<br />
long error;<br />
<br />
HANDLE hToken = NULL;<br />
BOOL bEnablePrivilege  = TRUE;<br />
<br />
// obtain the explorer handle to get the hToken<br />
if(GetExplorerToken(hToken)) // write ur function to get explorer token!!<br />
{<br />
 if(hToken != NULL)<br />
 {<br />
	ImpersonateLoggedOnUser(hToken);<br />
<br />
	error = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,strRegPath,0,KEY_ALL_ACCESS,&hKey);<br />
<br />
	RevertToSelf();<br />
 }<br />
}<br />

Now, you can use the hKey obtained to open the required registry key under HKCR and take the back up!!

Cheers

In this function i am trying to disable the dchp in the adapter register key.
Also i am notify the NICs driver that the settings have changed.

I think i need to typecast correctly.

Kindly help!

use
GUID *ret;
ret = new GUID;

instead of
GUID ret;

after that delete ret

hi sachin,

Thanks for replying.

But that didnt work. Now the 'ret' just gets created with the default value 'CDCDCDCD-CDCD-CDCD-CDCDCDCDCDCD}' and the funtion UuidFromString() produces no effect on it.

any other idea??

Hi,

That didnt work.

now 'ret' is created with default val "{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}" and the function UuidFromString() causes no effect..

Thankyou for your sugesstion!

What does the return value from UuidFromString say. Refer MSDN for more information. Check given GUID string.

MSDN:

This is the syntax of the function UuidFromString() for the version vc++6.0

RPC_STATUS RPC_ENTRY UuidFromString
(
unsigned char *StringUuid,
UUID *Uuid
);

New 2005 version:
RPC_STATUS RPC_ENTRY UuidFromString
(
unsigned char __RPC_FAR* StringUuid,
UUID __RPC_FAR* Uuid
);

I am using vc++6.0 with PSDK and i guess __RPC_FAR wont be the cause of the problem.

Further, i have modified it as,

unsigned char *GuidString;
GuidString = (unsigned char *)szValue;
//szValue being declared as "char szValue[MAX_GUID_STRING_LEN];" and having a val "{A89377EA-D4ED-4A03-A37F-4A9DE785E1A9}"

GUID ret = { 0 };
UuidFromString(GuidString,&ret);

now UuidFromString returns RPC_S_INVALID_STRING_UUID stating that the string UUID is invalid.

Try removing "{...}" from the beginning and from the end of the string.
