Ah, no. That won't create an object, that calls a method on the object.
I'd do some background reading on using ActiveX controls in MFC if I were you. If you have VC6, the 'How do I..' in the help isn't too bad.

C# BHO question

(Posted it in C# session but received none answer so I thought here it would be more appropriate)

Hi!
All I want is to create a BHO (Browser Helper Object) which among the other things it does, it displays something onto the IE's statusbar. The problem is how to access the rest fields of the IE's statusbar.

IWebBrowser2 gives only access to StatusText which is the first field from the 7 (as I can see in my IE).

I want to add a small icon to a statusbar field and when clicked do some stuff.

thanks,

IE - simulating ENTER key

rana7418-Jul-06 21:55

18-Jul-06 21:55

Is there any way to simulate the press of 'ENTER' key on IE.We have a password field,which invokes a javascript function to log the user in,on press of ENTER.
We need to reproduce this action automatically - ie after filling the userid and password,we need to invoke the ENTER key.
We fill up the userid/password fields by elem->setAttribute(..,..,0),where pelem is the IHTMLElement interface.
But we are not able to simulate the press of ENTER.
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks.

a way around constructor arguments

Hi All,
My requirements needs me to pass an instance of a class xyz in a third party component(OCX) to my dll in ATL COM. how do i go about this?

We all know that passing parameters in the constructors of the exposed atl classes/objects is literally impossible unless i write my own atl library(oops sorry bad joke!).

That means the only option i have is to pass this third party component
instance to a method, i hope this is possible, even if it is, how do i define
the 'xyz' data type in the idl file?

<br />
import "oaidl.idl";<br />
import "ocidl.idl";	<br />
	[<br />
		object,<br />
		uuid(AB375A74-76CB-4BBC-BFED-141791262B38),<br />
		dual,<br />
		helpstring("IExposedATLClass Interface"),<br />
		pointer_default(unique),<br />
		oleautomation<br />
	]<br />
	interface IExposedATLClass : IDispatch<br />
	{<br />
               [id(1), helpstring("method GetInstance")] HRESULT GetInstance([in] Ixyz *instance);<br />
	};<br />
<br />
[<br />
	uuid(3C9EB277-EC91-4E42-8CD7-34F918490B69),<br />
	version(1.0),<br />
	helpstring("MYDLL 1.0 Type Library")<br />
]<br />
library MYDLLLib<br />
{<br />
	importlib("stdole32.tlb");<br />
	importlib("stdole2.tlb");<br />
	importlib("thirdpartycomponent.tlb");<br />
<br />
	<br />
	[<br />
		uuid(4DC3999A-797D-4F9A-8955-812E87E4B6D0),<br />
		helpstring("ExposedATLClass Class")<br />
	]<br />
	coclass ExposedATLClass<br />
	{<br />
		[default] interface IExposedATLClass;<br />
	};<br />
};<br />

the compiler doesnt recognize the xyz data type...

i import the component(OCX) in my stdafx.h file, my idl file imports the midl compiler generated .tlb file in my library namespace, after all this when i try importing the component's idl file in my idl

<br />
import "oaidl.idl";<br />
import "ocidl.idl";	<br />
import "thirdpartycomponent.idl";<br />

the compiler reports ambiguous symbols.

what should i do?
I'd really appreciate any kind of help/suggestion here.

hash_map file in VC6

I can't find the hash_map file in VC6 STL include folder. Could somebody give me exact link from MSDN to download the ext folder, which contains this hash_map file?

Thanking in anticipation..

STL in VC6 doesn't have hash_map. At all. Not even a download from MSDN. You could a) find a third party implementation that you can drop in (I don't know of one), b) use STLport[^] (free) rather than the DinkumWare STL that comes with VC6, c) buy and use the (not free) DinkumWare[^] Standard C++ Library (this is a newer version of the one that comes with VC6) or d) upgrade to VC7.1 (VS2003), although I'm presuming that's not an option.

why are WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC and COLOR_BTNFACE not playing along?

alianyn18-Jul-06 3:39

18-Jul-06 3:39

Hi,
I have a WTL app in which i have a property page based on CPropertyPageImpl.
On that page i have a Static Text Control which is basically sample of the text selected and thus labeled IDC_SAMPLE.
no i mapped WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC using MSG_WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC(OnCtlColorStatic)in a BEGIN_MSG_MAP_EX. and my implementation is a s follows :

LRESULT CItemAppearanceOptsImpl::OnCtlColorStatic(HDC hDC, HWND hWnd)<br />
{<br />
	long lWndID = ::GetWindowLong(hWnd, GWL_ID);<br />
	if (lWndID == IDC_SAMPLE)<br />
	{<br />
		::SetBkMode(hDC, TRANSPARENT);<br />
		::SetTextColor(hDC, m_cfb->GetBarItemColor());<br />
		::SetBkColor(hDC, ::GetSysColor(COLOR_BTNFACE));<br />
		if (m_returnBrush) m_returnBrush.DeleteObject();<br />
		m_returnBrush.CreateSysColorBrush(COLOR_BTNHIGHLIGHT);<br />
		SetMsgHandled(TRUE);<br />
		return (LRESULT)m_returnBrush.m_hBrush;<br />
	} <br />
	else<br />
	{<br />
		SetMsgHandled(FALSE);<br />
		if (m_returnBrush) m_returnBrush.DeleteObject();<br />
		m_returnBrush.CreateSysColorBrush(COLOR_BTNFACE);<br />
		return (LRESULT)m_returnBrush.m_hBrush;<br />
	}<br />
}<br />

m_returnBrush is a CBrush defined in the header and set at OnInitDialog to COLOR_BTNFACE.

now if i change the single line
m_returnBrush.CreateSysColorBrush(COLOR_BTNHIGHLIGHT);
to m_returnBrush.CreateSysColorBrush(COLOR_BTNFACE);
no change in color occurs - i.e meaning that it doesn`t work.
any ideas why? using COLOR_BTNHIGHLIGHT gives it a different look than the rest of the Page and I want a uniform UI.

thanks in advance.

I suspect you are using WTL's version of CString. Dump the atlmisc.h, and include atlstr.h instead, to use ATL's version of CString. It might also do you some good if you upgraded WTL too. Smile | :)

Re: IXMLDOMDocument how to use

Steve S13-Jul-06 4:29

Steve S

13-Jul-06 4:29

You should ask in the XML Forum[^], not in here.

However, to save your first post being a copy of this, here's a few things to get you started.

In your stdafx.h file (or whatever you're using as a precompiled header) put

#import <msxml.dll> rename_namespace("MSXML") raw_interfaces_only named_guids

That will give you declarations for the various MS XML interfaces and such.

Secondly, you need to instantiate a document. Here's where it's a little tricky, since you have to know what version of MSXML you want to use.

CComPtr<MSXML::IXMLDOMDocument> spDoc;
HRESULT hr;
CLSID clsid;
if (SUCCEEDED(::CLSIDFromProgID(L"MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0", &clsid)))
{
hr = ::CoCreateInstance(clsid, NULL, CLSCTX_ALL, MSXML::IID_IXMLDOMDocument, reinterpret_cast<void**>(&spDoc));
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
// Yay, we have a document object!
}
}

Once you have one of those, you can load it

VARIANT_BOOL bLoaded = VARIANT_FALSE;
hr = spDoc->load( _variant_t(sourcefile), &bLoaded);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr) && bLoaded)
{
// Your document is loaded, use MSXML methods to interrogate the DOM document
// and extract your data...
}

MSDN has lots of information on IXMLDOMDocument and the other related interfaces, so dig around in there, or ask questions in the XML forum.
