Hello:
I needed to have an Animated Gif in my program so I included the code from PictureEx which works great except for the following.
I complie using Level 4 which means I get a lot of warnings.
Since including the code from PictureEx I now get 35 warnings for C4663, C4018 and C4100 these all refer to where he is using a Vector template class.
I tried using #pragma warning( disable : 4018 4100 4663 ) but this doesn't help. Tried all forms of this #pragrma and still can't get rid of these warnings.
I never have warnings in my code and can't figure out how to get rid of these that the PictureEx code has caused.
Can anyone help
Thanks

C4663 is caused by an old template class declaration. It is not an actual error, and should not cause errorneous behaviour, but when time goes on and new compilers appear, this declaration form will soon become a syntactical error. The creator of the class should alter the original source code to fix this. You can do nothing (besides directly modifying the source code) to fix it. If the source code license allows it, feel free to do it and post a corrected version to the author.
C4018 is caused by signed/unsigned comparison mismatch. This originally inherits from the way signed and unsigned numbers are handled. In assembly/machine-code, the concept of signed/unsigned does not exist. All numbers are unsigned there. The difference is made by interpreting the value. Consider an 8-bit value (such as a 'char'). If it is a signed char, direct values 0-127 refer to signed values 1...127 and values 128-255 refer to -128...0. It cannot have a value outside of range -128...127. A comparison operation in assembly is a mathematical substraction. If the substraction causes a 'borrow' to happen (don't know the actual math term in english for it), a flag is set. Looking at this flag, the conclusion of greater or not is made, and true/false is returned. It is possible that sometimes, when the numbers are suitable, an errorneous interpretation is made. I cannot outright remember what these conditions are. Lets just say that avoid comparing unsigned and signed numbers whenever possible 
C4100 is caused by having an unreferenced parameter in function declaration. This is like having a needed parameter passed to a function and the parameter is never used inside the function, making it irrelevant for the function. It is most obviously a typing error in the source code. Fixing it requires checking the function in question and seeing if a parameter truly is unreferenced, and if it is, removing it from the function definition. Again, a source code change is necessary.
In conclusion, there's nothing you can do to fix these errors without altering the PictureEx source code. But none of them are critical, either, excluding the first one. C4663 might cause an error later on when a new compiler is released that no longer supports the old-style syntax.
Hope this helps.

THIS WAS ZERO HELP
I KNEW THESE ARE WARNINGS, I Stated this.
I know what the messages mean, I looked them up.
I WANT TO STOP the compiler from generating these warnings.
With the exception of this PictureEx code I have ZERO warnings when I compile my programs. I don't want to fix Microsoft's Vector template class and I don't know how to fix the PictureEx code to get rid of this warnings.
So I have been trying to get the complier to NOT DISPLAY them or IGNORE them when compiling the code.

All these warnings are coming from Microsoft's templates VECTOR and XMEMORY
I just made the proper changes to them and saved a copy in my local include directory.
At least now I am back to ZERO errors, and maybe some day Mircosoft will release new templates.

A simple 'no this did not help' would've been adequate. But no matter. You got the problem fixed, so no need for any of this anymore

Did you try putting
#pragma warning (disable : 4018 100 663)
in your the header file for PictureEx or at the top of your stdafx.h file?
According to MSDN, the compiler will automatically add 4000 to error numbers between 0 and 999.
Don't flame me....yes, I noticed you have already "fixed" this, thought I'd add my 2 cents worth ....

hi,
for a uni project i need to write some c++ allowing a user to draw to a memory structure - like a bitmap i guess - so that the value of each individual pixel can accessed. initially this will be using the mouse and will be displayed on the screen but will later needs to work on a graphics tablet also displaying the output on the tablet.
I have tried a couple of different approaches:
FLTK - using mouse i can draw pictures but is not drawing to a data structure but instead to the screen so dont know how to access each pixel individually...
have also tried using CBitmaps but cant work out how to draw to them...
ive never programmed in c++ before so do not know what is possible. I am using .NET 2003 as an environment.
please could someone suggest a way of doing this or somewhere to find information on it.
Thanks in advance
Andy

Do you need to access each pixel individually or just what the user draws? If it is just what is draws and you want it realtime then you can create a shadow bitmap and mirror the drawing logic both on the screen and this bitmap(or whatever device context you wish). If it is only after the user finishes and lets say selects print you could use something like the BitBlt function and copy the drawing area (most likely the client area of the window ) to whatever device context you wish. If you look on MSDN for GDI functions you will find all this information. I am not trying to be vague, I just am not exactly sure what you want to do; maybe if you would rephrase your question I could help more.

Howdy,
The OnCtlColor function does not seem to do anything for buttons, and scrollbars.
MSDN suggests that by processing the CTLCOLOR_BTN case, the background color for all buttons in a dialog can be set. However when I try this nothing happens.
The function behaves correctly for other controls, such as edit and static controls.
In the OnCtlColor() function I have:
if (nCtlColor == CTLCOLOR_BTN)
{
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
if(m_buttonBrush)
hbr = *m_buttonBrush;
}
and m_buttonBrush is created earlier.
Is it possible to use this function.. I would really like to avoid making my own custom button control and subclassing from it.
thanks,
Tom

Hi,
I can vaguely remember, that I also tried to use OnCtlColor a century ago. As far as I can remember, the only colour I cold change was the text colour of that button.

Same here. I could only control the static text, group boxes, and dialog background colors. I just tried again right now and although I do return a brush handle for CTLCOLOR_BTN (and the trace statements I added confirm that), the buttons are drawn using system colors regardless.
I ended up creating a color button class (which I wanted to avoid like you) but turned out to be a good thing because I could then make them a bit fancier (e.g. gradient paint).

Hi All,
I have the following Problem:
I'm using the MS C++ .NET 2003 Standard Edition on Windows XP Home. I'm not able to create Windows Forms bases applications. If I try to create such a Project I get an error window saying "specified module cannot be found" (translated from german, maybe slightly different in english version).
If I try to add a Form By using File | Add new Element and the select Windows Form I get the same error. The Project is a managed C++ Project.
Another Problem is, that if I start MS VC++ .NET and go to the "My Profile" Page or the "Online ressources Page" I get again error messges telling me that there is an error in the skript which again seems to be caused by the module not found error.
I tried reinstalling MSVC several Times, this did not help. I tried to Install a Professional Version this showed the same behaviour.
Can anyone give me a hint what is going on here?
Thanks in advance,
Ingo

There's only 2 things I can think of... and they might not be right.
1. Check to make sure "use managed Extensions" is set to 'YES' in your project's properties for the first problem.
2. for the second problem, I had a problem similar to that one before. Somehow one of my test apps was made using a document extension of ".htm" VS.Net seems to use .html pages for its wizards (I guess they're CDHtmlDialog-based). This may not be the problem, but just to check, double-click on a file with an .html or .htm extension and make sure it opens up your browser and not some other application. I had made a BugReporter application that had somehow gotten the .htm extension associated with it, so everytime i double-clicked a .htm file, it opened up my app. VS was having a problem because of this and couldn't open its associated .htm page to go with the dialog

Hi all
I am facing problem with the following issues:
1.0 Mapping Mode
2.0 ScaleViewport
3.0 SetViewOrg.
I am using QZoomView a class from Codeguru as base class of my view which inturn is derived from CScrollView
Following is the OnPrepareDC function of the My View
Code:
void CPatternView::OnPrepareDC(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo) <br />
{<br />
<br />
if ((m_Mode == MODE_ANALYSIS && m_AnalysisItem == AN_TIME_WINDOW) || <br />
(m_Mode == MODE_ANALYSIS && m_AnalysisItem == AN_WFR_DIAGRAM))<br />
{<br />
QZoomView::OnPrepareDC(pDC, pInfo); <br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
CScrollView::OnPrepareDC (pDC,pInfo);<br />
pDC->SetMapMode(MM_LOENGLISH); <br />
}<br />
}
And OnPrepareDC of QZoomView
Code:
void QZoomView::OnPrepareDC(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo)<br />
{<br />
CScrollView::OnPrepareDC(pDC, pInfo);<br />
if (!pDC->IsPrinting())<br />
{<br />
ASSERT(m_Zoom > 0.0f);<br />
int denom(1000);
int num((int)(m_Zoom * (float)denom));<br />
pDC->SetMapMode(MM_ANISOTROPIC);<br />
pDC->ScaleViewportExt(num, denom, num, denom);<br />
<br />
CRect rect;<br />
GetClientRect(&rect);<br />
CPoint pntVO = pDC->GetViewportOrg();<br />
if (m_totalDev.cx < rect.Width())<br />
pntVO.x = (rect.Width() - m_totalDev.cx) / 2;<br />
if (m_totalDev.cy < rect.Height())<br />
pntVO.y = (rect.Height() - m_totalDev.cy) / 2;<br />
pDC->SetViewportOrg(pntVO);<br />
}<br />
}
PROBLEM STATEMENT
This indicates that when I am calling QZoomView::OnPrepareDC then it changes the view settings and then if i am using onpreparedc of CScrollview then content of my view get displaced/shifted horizontally.
I just want to get the view in initial position i.e. the effect of changes made by QZoomView::OnPrepareDC get neglected.
Can you please help me in getting this done?

Hi all,
I have a peculiar problem, may b a stupid one for gurus..
How can I make an application which appears like Visual studio 6.0.
I mean only the appearence.
the application has a tree view at the left side as in VS. Then a log or history bar at the bottom.
the right side has place for displaying the window of the selected item in tree.
Multiple windows are opened when more than one item is selected in the tree.
The tree view and the log view are dockable and resizable.
The menu has less items than VS.
There is only one tree view at the left side, that is one out of class, resource and file view.
How can I make such an application using VC++ 6 and Windows 2000?
Any suggestion or reference will be appreciated..
Thank you

you can create an MDI application with a CDialogBar ( container for tabbed window ( containing the tree ) and the log window ).
the dialog bars need to be created manually, while the MDI framework is created with a wizard.

Will I get some more explanation?
You mean i shud create an MDI application and then add the container manually?
A few more lines on this issue may help me better...

I have declared an object of CMap class as in my class
class X{
CMap<cstring,lpctstr,cstring,lpcstr> m_map;
......
};
I need to write getter and setter for this but dont know that exact syntax. Can anybody help me how to write getter and setter for above member.
CMap <......>getMap(); does not compile.
Regards

The problem here is that CMap is a collection template class. Thus, you need to decide in the beginning what key-value pairs your map represents. Try this code piece for a size. I don't know if it compiles (haven't tested it), but as far as I can think of, there should be no syntactical errors in it.
class X
{
CMap<int, int&, CPoint, CPoint&> m_map;
...<DIV>
CMap<int, int&, CPoint, CPoint&>* GetMap() { return &m_map; }
void SetMap( CMap<int, int&, CPoint, CPoint&>& m_refMap ) { m_map = m_refMap; }
...<DIV>
}Something like that, I'd presume. I'm returning a pointer-to-member by design. You could return a reference from GetMap() as well. Also, I'm passing a reference to SetMap(). Again, passing a pointer and using pointer-dereferencing operator (*) is just as good a solution. Returning a copy from GetMap() is not preferred, because the map might be huge, thus creating a copy of it would cause unnecessary overhead.
All these solutions are not the best ones, however. When considering memory efficiency, the best way would be to keep a pointer-type member variable and using dynamic memory allocation in the class. This way, a direct pointer can be returned, and the SetMap() routine can use delete accompanied by a copy constructor call.

Or you can typedef this outside of your class (in the header file):
typedef CMap<....> MyMap
and return this typedef:
MyMap getMap();

But the type of the map (template arguments) must be explicitly specified in every case, isn't that so ? I mean, you can't return a pointer to a CMap instantation that has none of the template parameters defined ?
I believe the error the asker was having is due to the lack of template arguments.

yes of course, you need to define the template arguments of the CMap you will return. And this is logical: you cannot work with a map without knowing what's inside...
So you need to return a CMap with template parameters defined (and that is more clear using a typedef so you won't have a return type too long  )

Hello Friends,
I am using CListView on which I had some images. Based on a boolean value for each Image, I am changing the text color. For Example, If the boolean value is true then the text color would be red else it would be COLOR_WINDOWTEXT.
I am doing this in OnCustomDraw which is shown as below:
case CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT:
CListCtrl& listCtrl = GetListCtrl();
if( found )
{
pNMLVCUSTOMDRAW->clrText = RGB(255,0,0);
listCtrl.Update(pNMLVCUSTOMDRAW->nmcd.dwItemSpec);
}
else
{
pNMLVCUSTOMDRAW->clrText = GetSysColor(COLOR_WINDOWTEXT);
listCtrl.Update(pNMLVCUSTOMDRAW->nmcd.dwItemSpec);
}
*pResult = 0;
break;
I am using as above methodology and its flickerig and I have close the application by going through the task manager.
Please tell me the solution.
Thanks in advance.
Neelesh K J Jain.
