what is the difference between CPaintDC and CClientDC ?
for you, what class should i use ?
for example :
i want draw a bitmap at coordinate of mouse when it is pressed Left

use wsprintf to add number in string and you can easily display that using the TextOut, but IMHO you should use CDC::ExtTextOut for same!

what's difference between TextOut() and ExtTextOut() ???
why should you ExtTextOut()??

Hey everybody. I'm so pissed off and angry on this thing I'm working on, that I exhausted myself. Before angrily going to sleep, I'm going to tell you a
bit of this problem, maybe there are some bright minds out there which can figure out what I couldn't, all day.
I got a main window. One "Static" window in it (a label child) with some text. Even though the main window is HWND_TOPMOST, sometimes Window's OS tooltips get over it. In those cases, I need to repaint. So I invalidate and repaint. The problem is that the child flickers. If I do 10 repaits per second I see an annoying flicker. I've been killing myself all day with back-drawing in memory DCs but with no use grr. Whatever I do, that label keeps flickering! What can I do about it!? ANY IDEAS? ANY? ANY LITTLE THING. I'm desperate ::- (.
I was thinking 5 minutes ago to make a snapshot of the window in a HBITMAP and then simply BitBlt that each redraw. But probably the label will keep flickering since probably it's WM_PAINT code will execute before or after the main's window WM_PAINT (don't know the order of events right now) so I'm going to have worked in vain to construct that snapshots system.

Well, since you're inviting any ideas, I thought I would ask why you can't draw the text directly onto the client surface of the window without using a static?

This is a common problem, especially in applications that need to constantly update a status string. A workaround is to use a "smart" SetText() method, as in:
void SmartSetText
(CWnd* pWnd,
CString strText)
{
ASSERT (pWnd != NULL);
ASSERT (pWnd->GetSafeHwnd() != NULL);
CString strOldText;
pWnd->GetWindowText (strOldText);
if (strOldText.Compare (strText) != 0)
pWnd->SetWindowText (strText);
}
It's a simple solution that works quite well.

I am migrating to Windows Forms Applications included in visual studio. However, I am having trouble getting the c++ code to interface with the controls on the Form. If anyone knows of any good (preferably c++) tutorials it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I am wondering what other developers think is the best way to register file extensions with windows.
Thanks.

If by Register file extensions, you mean have a default icon and open with for a new file type, then this is also fairly easy. You need to add your file extension to the registry. This[^] might help you.

If using MFC, I would use EnableShellOpen() and RegisterShellFileTypes(), both of which are methods of CWinApp.

In MS Word or OpenOffice when you try to load a file you get a dialog window asking you to find the file you want to open. I am trying to implement that dialog window in a program, and I am wondering if there is a library or function call which would make my job easier that starting from scratch.
Thanks.

There are open/save dialogs in the common dialogs library. Have a look here[^]

There's also MFC's CFileDialog class.

I am having a strange problem with the following dialog callback function:
BOOL CALLBACK MergeProc(HWND hwnd, UINT Message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
static int MostRooms;
bool bError;
char *room,*year,*exam;
switch(Message)
{
case WM_INITDIALOG:
if (strlen(dlgdata[0])) {
year = new char [10];
strncpy(year,dlgdata[0]+2,4);
strcpy(year+4,"\0");
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,SD_MERGE_YEAR, WM_SETTEXT,20,(LPARAM) year);
delete year;
}
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,SD_MERGE_YEAR, EM_LIMITTEXT,4,0);
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,SD_MERGE_ROOM, EM_LIMITTEXT,30,0);
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,SD_MERGE_EXAM, EM_LIMITTEXT,10,0);
MostRooms = atoi(dlgdata[1]);
EnumChildWindows(hwnd,EnumChildProc,(LPARAM)hFnt);
return TRUE;
case WM_COMMAND:
switch (LOWORD(wParam)) {
case IDOK:
bError = false;
room = new char [30];
year = new char [10];
exam = new char [30];
room[0] = (char)10;
year[0] = (char)10;
exam[0] = (char)30;
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,SD_MERGE_YEAR,EM_GETLINE,0,(LPARAM)year);
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,SD_MERGE_ROOM,EM_GETLINE,0,(LPARAM)room);
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,SD_MERGE_EXAM,EM_GETLINE,0,(LPARAM)exam);
if (strlen(room) > 0) {
if (!count_rooms(room,MostRooms+1) ) {
char tmp [128];
sprintf(tmp,"Please enter rooms between 0 and %i!",MostRooms+1);
MessageBox(0,tmp,0,0);
bError = true;
}
}
else if (!bError) {
MessageBox(hwnd,"Please enter a room!",0,0);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwnd,SD_MERGE_ROOM));
bError = true;
}
if ( (strlen(year) > 0) && (!bError) ) {
if ((atoi(year) > 2000)&&(atoi(year) < 2100)) {
char *text = new char [10];
strcpy(text,"¸ß");
strcat(text,year);
strcat(text,"¼¶");
strcpy(year,text);
delete text;
}
else if (!bError) {
MessageBox(hwnd,"Please enter a year between 2000 and 2100!",0,0);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwnd,SD_MERGE_YEAR));
bError = true;
}
}
else if (!bError) {
MessageBox(hwnd,"Please enter a year!",0,0);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwnd,SD_MERGE_YEAR));
bError = true;
}
if ((strlen(exam) > 0) && (!bError) ) {
}
else if (!bError) {
MessageBox(hwnd,"Please enter an exam name!",0,0);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwnd,SD_MERGE_EXAM));
bError = true;
}
if (bError) {
delete exam;
delete room;
delete year;
MessageBox(0,"An Error occured",0,0);
}
else {
dlgdata[0] = year;
dlgdata[1] = room;
dlgdata[2] = exam;
EndDialog(hwnd,1);
}
break;
case IDCANCEL:
EndDialog(hwnd,0);
break;
}
break;
default:
return FALSE;
}
return TRUE;
}
Sorry to post so much. Basically all this does is retrieves the text from the three edit boxes, tests the values and returns. If you follow the IDOK event, you can see if an error occurs I display a message box and set the bError = true. Now for some reason, only with a release build, bError is false right through, until I test if it is true. No message boxes are displayed besides the final "An Error occured". I just can't understand why.
I have placed a message box on just about every line, they have confirmed that bError is false. But the if (bError) { is always true.

Debug builds set local variables to zero (false) - release builds don't (so what you have is basically indeterminate). It's important to always initialize your local variables to a known state.
I'd start by setting bError to false when you declare it and check if the problem reccurs.

I have already tried this. When declaring the berror variable I origionaly set it to false. Though thinking this may be a cause of the problem I removed it and instead set it to false in the IDOK handler.
Like I said in my post, bError is false right up until the final test, where for some reason it is being set to true. The problem lies here somewhere
if ((strlen(exam) > 0) && (!bError) ) {
}
else if (!bError) {
MessageBox(hwnd,"Please enter an exam name!",0,0);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwnd,SD_MERGE_EXAM));
bError = true;
} However the "Please enter an exam name!" is never shown, suggesting the bError = true; line is never executed either.

Sometimes it helps to rewrite the logic tests to be more affirmative.
In the example you show, you're making use of what I call "testing for a negative" which can be very hard to follow.
Try rewriting the tests like this:
if ( (strlen(exam) <= 0) && ( bError == false ) )
{
MessageBox(hwnd,"Please enter an exam name!",0,0);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwnd,SD_MERGE_EXAM));
bError = true;
}
This way is simpler, clearer, and easier to follow mentally.

I understand your logic, but I need it the way it is. I will later be adding code into that empty if statement which will check for previous instances of the entered text.
Though out of sheer baldness, I will test the change.

This is just bizzare. Your advice works, as it should do, but then again, my code should also work. I also tried the following
if ((strlen(exam) > 0) && (!bError) ) {
int i = 0;
}
else if (!bError) {
MessageBox(hwnd,"Please enter an exam name!",0,0);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwnd,SD_MERGE_EXAM));
bError = true;
}
Which also works. So the ultimate question is, why the hell is an empty if statement causeing bError to become true?
|
|
|
|

Wow. If it suddenly starts working just with the addition of the int i = 0; , then I can't claim to know what is causing the problem.
Perhaps the issue has to do with optimizations applied by the compiler.
Try this: Go back to the original (non-working) code, and then go into the Project Properties, and turn OFF all compiler and linker optimizations. Then build it and see if it works.
