Thanks a lot to all reponses!

In the meantime, I've managed to make Practical C++ Sockets[^] work with only little tweaking and my poor knowledge of unmanaged C++ world

Have a look at Beej's guide to networking programming[^], there are client/server examples in chapter 6.
Another starting point is the Winsock Programmer's FAQ[^], it has examples in section 6 (with or without MFC).
Alternatively use a socket class such as Alhem, Boost, SharkEngine, QT, and many others...

You need to decide if you go the low-level route or take an existing socket class. First teaches you the networking basics, later makes you productive right away. Hope this helps, happy coding! Smile | :)

Thanks Moak for such an exhaustive answer,

currently I've managed to make Practical C++ Sockets[^] work, that will be hopefully enough for the moment. Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

you can specify a filter in the OPENFILENAME struct, for example

ofn.lpstrFilter = _T("Word Files (*.doc; *.docx)\0*.doc;*.docx\0");

But that is a whitelist, i.e. nothing other than doc/docx files will be shown. AFAIK there's no way to exclude an extension, but allow anything else.

There is sufficient light for those who desire to see, and there is sufficient darkness for those of a contrary disposition.

I tried this but its not working

CFileDialog dlg(TRUE,0,0,OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST|OFN_PATHMUSTEXIST|OFN_HIDEREADONLY);

	dlg.m_ofn.lpstrFilter = _T("EXE Files (*.exe)\0*.exe\0");

	if(dlg.DoModal()==IDCANCEL)
		return;

You are missing a final \0 terminator in your filter string. The filter uses a single \0 to delimit each individual string, and then two terminators \0\0 to terminate the whole thing.

	dlg.m_ofn.lpstrFilter = _T("EXE Files (*.exe)\0*.exe\0\0");

	if(dlg.DoModal()==IDCANCEL)
		return;

now its ok.

but its not working again.

try this then

dlg.m_ofn.lpstrFilter = "C++ Source Files (*.cpp;*.h)|*.cpp;*.h|All files (*.*)|*.*||"

The second \0 is put implicitly by the compiler.

Hmm, you're right. I always specify the filter using the CFileDialog constructor, so I use the "|" and "||" delimiters in the filter string.

how i can use AsyncSelect

hi friends,

i wrote one protocal...facing problem...please help any bogy

before Lisening i am dedicating socket p.AsyncSelect(FD_ACCEPT);

i am Accepting All the Connections....

next i want to do Sent and recieve repately....but after Accepting Connections its not going sent..

i am using CAsyncSocket(OnAccept,OnSent,OnRecieve)...

Re: how i can use AsyncSelect

Quick tip: Leave AsyncSelect() alone, most time you don't need to play with these values.

Socket objects inherit their notification event settings from the listening socket or more precisely from the socket that accepts them. If you use any of the notification handler OnSent/OnRecieve/OnClose in your socket objects you need the corresponding FD_WRITE/FD_READ/FD_CLOSE events[^] too. Until you do some superduper-fine-tuning, just stick with the defaults.

Hope this helps. Smile | :)

Dialog size should change to the system screen size

I have a dialog in my application. When the application starts the dialog size should be the the system size. It should occupy the full screen size automatically. How can i do this?

Re: Dialog size should change to the system screen size

One way is to use GetSystemMetrics() with SM_CXVIRTUALSCREEN and SM_CYVIRTUALSCREEN to retrieve the screen dimensions, then use SetWindowPos() to set your dialog to that size.

Small example:

UINT width  = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXSCREEN);
UINT height = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYSCREEN);
SetWindowPos(hWnd, HWND_TOP, 0, 0, width, height, SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_SHOWWINDOW);

Just a comment: If you don't use SM_CXVIRTUALSCREEN and SM_CYVIRTUALSCREEN in the GetSystemMetrics() calls, on a multiple-monitor system only the primary monitor's dimension is obtained. It's hard to tell whether the original poster wanted to use the primary monitor, or the whole desktop, though.

By default CWnd defined in afxwin.h. You should find same definition CWnd* m_pMainWnd;

hi I am trying to use it in InitDialog() but they are showing undeclared identifier m_pMainWnd
I saw this variable in the afxwin.h which is included by the StdAfx.h

What version of Visual Studio do you use? If 2010, there is another structure of default generated code. Anyways check that stdafx.h is include in your header file Big Grin | :-D

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
