IGraphBuilder::RenderFile() could be used if you want the graph builder to build the complete
graph for you.

If you want to use specific renderers, then you can:

Use IGraphBuilder::AddSourceFilter() to (hopefully) load the filter needed for QuickTime files
Load your renderer filter(s) and add to the graph.
Use IBaseFilter::EnumPins() to find th output pin(s) of the source filter.
For each output pin, use IGraphBuilder::Render() - Intelligent Connect will use whatever filters
necessary between the source output pins and the renderer input pins.

If Intelligent Connect isn't able to find the correct source filter (it would be because the
source filter was implemented incorrectly) then you'll need to load the filter manually. You can
get the GUID from GRAPHEDIT.EXE.

Good luck! Anything that starts with the letters "Intelli" is suspect....remember
IntelliSense? Smile | :)

Thank for answering but i am already using RenderFile , yes i can do it by Adding filters-Connecting pins- and rendering out pin of renderer filter , but i just want to call RenderFile and IntelliConnect to handle it , perhaps i am doing something wrong -> i ve made a bat file and interior of it is :

regsvr32.exe qtime.ax

Isnt this enough for Intelliconnect , i wonder how codec packs achieve this ?

I understand, I think Wink | ;)

I just wanted to give you alternatives (using Intelligent Connect). If
the filter is well implemented it should work.

I believe you need the full path when you register the filter dll -

regsvr32.exe drive:\path\qtime.ax

I don't know if this is true, or if it's still the case, but when I first made my own custom
filter, it wouldn't register and a Google search brought me to an article stating I need the full
path. It worked and I've been doing it ever since Laugh | :laugh:

The same code can be used, although you might have to clean it up a bit. Even more so with VS2005.

How to create new functions on runtime with or without VC++ editor and to compile them?

Hello,

I would like to give the users of my application the possibility to create their own collection of C++ functions and to execute them.

Am I right to say that I could not use neither VC++ editor nor the compiler and debugger on runtime since the application must be rebuild when adding new functions?

And I was wondering about one solution that might be to add an editor and C++ script engine but I do not know if it is the best solution and how to start.

Could you please give me your advices and some entry points to start?

I thank you very much for your help.

Adding scripting to your application can be a great idea. I wouldn't expect end users to code in anything too close to C++ though, perhaps VB or even perl, python, javascript, smallbasic, even C#. If you're adding scripting you probably either want to go with something supported by the Microsoft ActiveX Scripting Engine for a desktop only app or one of the Web Browser hosted scripting languages for Web based apps.
If your target audience is developers then you probably ought to be shipping them components of one kind or another, like COM objects, which they can utilise in their own software via a published interface specification, rather than tieing them to scripting your application.

It really depends on what sort of app you're doing. I added ActiveX scripting support to a presentation graphics package ( a bit like Powerpoint ) a few years ago. That meant you could script the package in VBScript and JavaScript. It was a great fun project but it did take a few months. I found the source for the Microsoft ActiveX test container, which is knocking around the web, absolutely essential in doing this as it implements all the badly documented and obscure ActiveX stuff. Enjoy Smile | :)

Looks good. I would expect to be picking up a large Open Source code base with this approach which might be a lot of work to bring up to whatever standards your shop requires. If this isn't a problem then it looks like you might have yourself a cool solution. I might even have a peek at some of it myself. I had to implement syntax colouring in an RTF based editor a few years ago and it was extremely difficult with very few code samples at the time. It woudl be interesting to see how it's supposed to work Big Grin | :-D

Please help me do a query based on date.
I have m_pSet (a pointer to CRecordset) and a filter m_strFilter
my date is a ColeDateTime in the form of "mm/dd/yyyy"
I need to set: m-pSet->m_strFilter to select records with birthday=1/1/1970

Any ideas.

The problem is that it doesn't return any thing. If I remove that the date part from the query it works. what is the right way of adding the date to the query .

What does your (incorrect) query look like?

Is this with Access, Microsoft SQL, or some other?

You can easily accomplish this selecting the last added item either with (MFC) CListBox::SetCurSel or (plain Win32) LB_SETCURSEL message.

Tree Control Images

Rajkumar Rachoti15-Jun-07 3:39

15-Jun-07 3:39

Hi,

I am trying to display images for tree control nodes. My bmp file is having 256 colors. Problem is that at run time of the application, tree control is displaying blurred images. So I want to know is it not possible to display the tree control node images with 256 colors? If it is possible then how do that? Please help.

Regards,
Raj

It should be possible.

How are you displaying the images?

Thanks a lot Mark for your time.

This my code to display the images:

m_imageList.Create(IDB_TREE_IMAGES,16,1, RGB(255, 255, 255));

m_navigationTree.SetImageList( m_imageList, TVSIL_NORMAL );

m_navigationTree.SetItemImage(m_hDisplay, 0, 0);

And IDB_TREE_IMAGES is a 256 colors bitmap.

Mark Salsbery18-Jun-07 4:37

I don't know why the images would be "blurred" unless the buttons aren't enabled.

Are the buttons enabled? Is bright white the "transparent" color for the bitmaps?

You could try this (although your code always works for me Smile | :)

)...
Note I'm assuming 16x16 bitmaps in the imagelist -

CBitmap bitmap;
bitmap.LoadBitmap(IDB_TREE_IMAGES);
m_ToolBarImageList.Create(16, 16, ILC_COLOR8|ILC_MASK, numberofimages, numberofimagestogrowby);
m_ToolBarImageList.Add(&bitmap, RGB(0xFF,0xFF,0xFF));
