a palette is what you use to define the colors for a colormapped image (1,4 or 8 bits per pixel). if you're writing a 24 or 32 bpp BMP/DIB, you don't need a palette. in a BMP/DIB, the palette is the set of (up to) 256 RGBQUADs after the BITMAPINFOHEADER. after that comes the image data, formatted in any of a dozen or more ways, depending on bit depth, compression , JPG , PNG, etc..

Path of the running application

I need to retrieve, at run-time, the path of my application (the place where the user has put the executable file, place that is not fixed). Does someone know how I can do that ???

Thank a lot !!!

Serial Comms - Invalid Handle

My app uses serial comms to collect data, it runs perfectly on my 1.1G Celeron XP machine, but when I tested it on a Cyrix PR233 running Win98 it crashes. After several hours of running OK it gives an error, which is 'Invalid Handle' - for the comm port.

What could cause it to loose the handle for the comm port?

Is it more likely to be the PC that is the critical difference or the operating system?

Anyone else had problems like this?

I've written the serial comms from a simple example, are there any good libraries or stuff that I could use that would make it more robust? Any recommendations?

Thanks;)

You dont need to call anything before SetText()...
just make sure you have set the control variable for the Grid and that you are in the correct cell that you want to set your text to.

You must link with the multithreaded lib , or else you get errors ..

ah yes, found it. thx!

Can I use a pragma to link with the multithreaded DLL? Something like #pragma comment(lib, "xxx.lib"), what do I need to set for xxx?

Which alternative is better: 'Multithreaded' or 'Multithreaded DLL'? Last one makes executable much smaller, does it run on Win9x/2000/XP still?

Re: Link multithreaded DLL automatically (_beginthreadex)=?

I'll use something like this:

BOOL createthread(HTHREAD* phThread, ThreadStartFunction pThreadFunc, void* pThreadParameter)
{
	assert(phThread && !*phThread);
#ifdef _MT
	unsigned int nDummy;
	*phThread = (HTHREAD) _beginthreadex(NULL,0,pThreadFunc,pThreadParameter,0,&nDummy);
#else
	unsigned long lDummy;
	*phThread = CreateThread(NULL,0,pThreadFunc,pThreadParameter,0,&lDummy);
#endif
	return *phThread?TRUE:FALSE;
}

File associations

Hi guys, I need a few pointers on file associations. I'm trying to write an app that decrypts files of a certain file extension, lets's say the extension is ".abc". I want that when someone clicks on the encrypted file, say "MyEncryptedFile.abc", it is opened via my decryptor. My question is, do I need to pass that file name to my decryptor exe and if so...how? Or, is there no need for this since files of type ".abc" are associated with my exe?

Hope that makes sense.

It depends on how you have set up the string in the registry.
For an example see :-
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\shell\open\command

It'll show you how a txt file is opened by notepad
The value is :-
%SystemRoot%\system32\NOTEPAD.EXE %1

Thus the %1 will automatically be sent to notepad.exe as a cmdline parameter where %1 is the file that has been double-clicked or opened from explorer

Thanks Nishant, am I limited to only passing through the filename? Suppose I required two command line parameters for the exe, the file name and a password for example.

If you can, please point me to a good site where I can get more info on the topic.

I ran into something similar to this with memory mapped files. It turns out that I had to create the memory mapped file (wrapper) object dynamically even though I saw that the destructor for the object that contained the static file object was executing correctly.

So, I did a "myFileObj = new FileObj;" and a "delete myFileObj" in the destructor and then it actually closed the file. Wierd, huh? But, that was the solution.

Get rid of ios::nocreate. You don't need it.

That's dumb. Set a breakpoint at the start, then you'll find out if the file was good on the way through.

if (ifsFile)

Get rid of this as well.

Don't Create document in MDI Application

If I use the AppWizard to create an MDI applicaiton. It'll open a document at first. How can i disable the initial document/childview/childframe creation ? I'll create myself in the Menu by using DocTemplate->CreateNewFrame()

Put this code in your InitInstance()

// stop a new document being created if just run normally
if (cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand == CCommandLineInfo::FileNew)
    cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand = CCommandLineInfo::FileNothing ;

Before the call to ProcessShellCommand()
