i'm having a CBitmap object, which will contain 2546x3288 size image,loading from bmp file.i need to draw a rectangle on that image witout lossing of background image...

void SFormViewer::OnPaint()<br />
{<br />
    CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting<br />
    // TODO: Add your message handler code here<br />
    // Do not call CWnd::OnPaint() for painting messages<br />
<br />
    if(flag_iInitPaint)<br />
    {<br />
        CRect rClient;<br />
        GetClientRect(&rClient);<br />
<br />
        CPen m_Pen;<br />
        m_Pen.CreatePen(PS_SOLID,2,RGB(250,0,0));<br />
<br />
        CDC m_memDC;<br />
        m_memDC.CreateCompatibleDC(&dc);<br />
        m_memDC.SelectObject(&m_FormImage);<br />
        m_memDC.SelectObject(&m_Pen);<br />
        m_memDC.SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);<br />
         <br />
        r_SelectedRect.SetRect(m_iShownImgTopX + p_iTopLeft.x, m_iShownImgTopY + p_iTopLeft.y, m_iShownImgTopX + p_iBottomRight.x, m_iShownImgTopY + p_iBottomRight.y);<br />
<br />
        if(flag_Scroll == 0)<br />
        {<br />
            m_memDC.Rectangle(r_SelectedRect);<br />
           <br />
        }<br />
<br />
        dc.BitBlt(0,0,rClient.Width(),rClient.Height(),&m_memDC,m_iShownImgTopX,m_iShownImgTopY,SRCCOPY);<br />

if(flag_Scroll == 0)
{
m_memDC.Rectangle(r_SelectedRect);

}

what i suggest is, instead of using memDC.rectangle,
use like this.
say if you want to draw rectangle from (x1,y1) to (x2,y2)

moveto(x1,y1);
lineto(x2,y1);

moveto(x2,y1);
lineto(x2,y2);

moveto(x2,y2);
lineto(x1,y2);

try to guess the next part of the code.

Rectangle draws a rectangle filled with the current selected brush.

Try selecting a null/hollow brush into the memDC instead of setting the background
mode to transparent

CBrush HollowBrush;
HollowBrush.CreateStockObject(HOLLOW_BRUSH);
CBrush *pOldBrush = m_memDC.SelectObject(&HollowBrush);
...
<draw your rectangle>
...
m_memDC.SelectObject(pOldBrush);

It's also a good idea to get into the habit of saving objects
previously selected into DCs so you can select them back in
when you're done with the DC. This will prevent resource leak problems.

Also....what happens if the bitmap isn't compatible with the memDC??

1) Click the top left corner of the page where it has the Bob Image and says "The Code Project"
2) After the home page loads look in the left column for the black bar that says "Sections"
3) Under Sections look for "General C++" and click it. That will open a new list of choices
4) Click "Printing"

Good luck

Hi All,

I am using MFC Application.I am going to include Existing project in to my Project's Workspace.
I have new project of type static library OK.Noew I got problem when I am going to include header file of that new project in my MFC project's class.I got error like below.......

1>d:\testing_and_download\testing\testrtmp_working\testrtmp\rtmpdesk.h(2) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'omnithread.h': No such file or directory

Here,

omnithread is my new project and in that I have omnithread.h file.In this project I have used the thread classes which i want to access here in my MFC project.

Ok. Thanks In Advance.

And I hope It comes from omnithread.h file in which I have defined like..........

Sorry for big code but I hope error comes from here and I have no that to much idea about this definition.

The data packets received from NIC may have Indefinite length,and among the data may include '\n','\t','\0',and so on .
If I do not want to new and delete a char ** every time according to the size of data packet , are there any advanced tools or structurs can be used? Thanks for your help~

Yes, and guess how they work? They will new and delete heap memory every time according to the size of data packet. Standard Template Library[^]

If you're using UDP packets, the recv API does not allow you to read a bit of the packet then the rest of the packet. It gives you the data up to the size of the buffer you supply then discards the rest. Peeking to find out how much data is present is unreliable. You should define a maximum size packet supported and use a buffer that size. You can simply reuse the buffer once you've processed the data. The maximum packet size supported by the TCP stack can be retrieved with getsockopt, passing the SO_MAX_MSG_SIZE parameter.

TCP does not preserve message boundaries. What you see at the receiver can be only part of a single call to send or it can be the result of multiple calls to send. If required, you must put some kind of framing on top of the raw data. Best practice is again to define a fixed size buffer and be prepared to handle any size of data that's returned, which can be as low as one byte.

You should probably read the Winsock Programmer's FAQ[^].

Bitdepth of avi file

I am using vfw to extract frames from an avi files. I;d like to know if the bit depth of the frame is available in the AVIFILEINFO structure or in any other structure.

Re: Bitdepth of avi file

Mark Salsbery12-Oct-07 14:47

Assuming you mean video...

You need to get that from the appropriate stream. That means you need to
use AVIStreamReadFormat() or open the stream and read a frame to get a BITMAPINFO struct.
From that struct, the BITMAPINFOHEADER.biBitCount field is what you want.

See AVIStreamReadFormat(), AVIStreamGetFrameOpen(), AVIStreamGetFrame(), etc.
