i want to write very large numbers for ex 61118792 to the serial port.so i want to use DWORD to write data instead of byte.
When i take byte as parameter when using writeFile & ReadFile(and pass small values) i am able to get correct output,but if take parameter as DWORD i am getting some garbage value.
Please do reply how to solve this, if any other way also please suggest.

Can you show code ? causing this.

This is the code i found from codeguru.
The URL is as below
www.codeguru.com/Cpp/I-N/network/serialcommunications/article.php/c5395
please do take some time to look at the code

Doesn't Cedric's answer satisfy your query ?

Are you talking about this function ?
BOOL CSerialPort::WriteByte(BYTE bybyte)
{
iBytesWritten=0;
if(WriteFile(hComm,&bybyte,1,&iBytesWritten,NULL)==0)
return false;
else return true;
}
If you want to use DWORD, you need to modify it to,
BOOL CSerialPort::WriteByte(DWORD dWord)
{
iBytesWritten=0;
if(WriteFile(hComm,&dWord,sizeof(DWORD),&iBytesWritten,NULL)==0)
return false;
else return true;
}

Corrected typo.

Well, that's a solution but it is not very convenient to modify the function so that it can support everything you want to transmit  .
I looked at the article but I don't really see the added value of it. Yes, of course, it is perfect when you want to send bytes but when you have more complex datatypes then it becomes a pain in the sense that you need to use masks and bit shifting

thanks for Prasad& you for looking at the article.I understood what u both meant and modified but even then when i am reading back the value in that edit box i am getting garbage value.
can anyone please suggest me any other method when i want to send very large values that too many values if possible in an array accepting from different edit boxes.

|

Well, if you modified the code accordingly to what prasad said, you need of course to do the same for the Read function (so that it can read DWORD and not bytes).
|
|
|
|

Actually, I dont wanted to read the article, as it was to much for me to read whole article, because OP dont want to paste relevent code.
So I looked in to WriteFile part of article and give him suggestion.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes sure the same for me. In fact the post was not intended as a 'rant' to you but more to the article itself. That's not very flexible to only be able to send bytes. It would have been much more convenient to be able to send a buffer (if the buffer size is 1, then you only send one byte).
|
|
|
|
|
To write data to a serial port, you provide tha address of a buffer and the size of data to transmit. So if you want to send your DWORD, you simply need to do this:
DWORD dwMydata = 61118792;
WriteFile(...., &dwMyData, sizeof(DWORD), ....);

Hi,
I need to change the background color of a CStaic control to white color.
How can i do this ?
Thanks.

Handle WM_CTLCOLOR
HBRUSH CMyDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)
{
HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);
if(nCtlColor==CTLCOLOR_STATIC)
{
pDC->SetBkColor(RGB(255,255,255));
}
return hbr;
}

Hi,
I tried this. But that is not changing all pixels of CStatic window. This changes only the text background color of CStatic window.
I need to change the color of whole CStatic window.
Thanks.

You said in your OP, you want change background color of CStatic.
Try this code,
HBRUSH CMyDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)
{
HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);
if(nCtlColor==CTLCOLOR_STATIC)
{
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
hbr = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(255,255,255));
}
return hbr;
}

Hi, I have a dialog box which has vertical scroll style enabled. The problem is, when i pull the scroll button down the controls in the dialog box move down. But when i pull the scroll button up the controls does not move up. The code which i have used is listed below
void CMyPropertyDlg::OnVScroll(UINT nSBCode, UINT nPos, CScrollBar *pScrollBar)
{
// TODO: Add your message handler code here and/or call default
CDialog::OnVScroll(nSBCode, nPos, pScrollBar);
SetScrollPos( SB_VERT , nPos , TRUE ) ;
ScrollWindow( 0 , GetScrollPos( SB_VERT ) ) ;
}
please help

The second parameter for ScrollWindow, yAmount must be a negative value to scroll up.
My idea is to take a member var which stores the previous pos, compare to see the direction and write code accordingly.
