thanks, but I will need this work for an arbitrary console, not only for child.

Was checking the "AtachConsole" but the only parameter it takes can have one value "ATTACH_PARENT_PROCESS".

err, sory.
here is more detail: trying to write a hook procedure that will handle the
"LVN_BEGINDRAG" and "LVN_BEGINRDRAG".

Once I have the notification that this happened I can do this:
------------------------------------------------------------------
std :: list < std :: string > slectedItems;
LPNMLISTVIEW listView = (LPNMLISTVIEW)lParam;
HWND listViewWindowhandle = listView->hdr.hwndFrom;
int index = ListView_GetNextItem( listViewWindowhandle, -1, LVNI_SELECTED );
while( -1 != index )
{
const int bufferSize = 1000;
char buffer[bufferSize] = {0};
ListView_GetItemText( listViewWindowhandle, index, 0, buffer, bufferSize );

slectedItems.push_back( buffer );

index = ListView_GetNextItem( listViewWindowhandle, index, LVNI_SELECTED );
}
------------------------------------------

so far this gives me the items selected and dragged.
didn't found a way to get the full path for each item that has been dragged.

Um, if you wrote the code that put the data into the listview, then where is your problem?

If you have a list view control, and it sends a NMLISTVIEW at you (it's a notification structure), one of the members of NMLISTVIEW is lParam. Simply use the lParam when you're storing data to get meaningful hints. As for "item full path", that is just gibberish.

If you didn't write the listview, you may want to mention where it is, and how you're getting a pointer to a NMLISTVIEW....?

I'm going to put my psychic hat on, and guess this is in the OPENFILEDIALOG common control, and you've hooked into it.

In which case, the lParam stores the PIDL of the selected file. That's from memory, and I'm sure I read it somewhere. Anyway, that should give you a hint or two for your google search.

Beyond that, you're going to have to provide more info.

Iain.

yes you're right I only received the pointer to the NMLISTVIEW and I did not wrote the list view. The list view is from "explorer.exe" probably the same as in OPENFILEDIALOG common control.

I think your hint helped, I missed the "lParam" from "NMLISTVIEW" which now I see how to use it with SHxxxx functions.

thanks.

CTreeCtrl selection

Hi,

I'm using VC++6.
I have a CTreeCtrl in my dialog.
How do i detect whether the selected item in the tree control is a root item or a child item? D'Oh! | :doh:

I'm not associating any image to the items.

Thanks & Regards,
sanju.

First, get the selected item, then check if it has a parent. Not quite sure if this will return TVI_ROOT or NULL for a root item.

HTREEITEM CTreeCtrl::GetParentItem( HTREEITEM hItem );

I've deliberately glossed over the selected item bit, as you could have multiple items selected. You'll have to keep a close eye on the selections you make, search through the item states for TVIS_SELECTED, or monitor TVN_SELCHANGED (which would be my choice).

Hi to all,
I have an problem when I try to build my app:

<br />
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__SHCreateStreamOnFileW@12

I included:

<br />
shlwapi.h

and linked it with 'ShLwApi.Lib'.
What seams to be the problem here?

It seems that the compiler can not determine where the function is, like if the library was not properly included.

Include the library to the project (Project->Add to project...), include the header, delete/rename the debug/release folder and try to "rebuild all..."

What happens?

Greetings.

I guess you are including a header twice in your app. Because of that you are having the definitions of typedef twice, and the second one gives an error.

Check out your includes, and take a look into #pragma once

How do I get hold of the data in the first element of the string array and copy it into the char buffer ? When perform the code above nothing happens .... the buffer remains blank although the string array element has data in it ....

Uh, in your code above, all the strings in your array are empty, so it's normal that the buffer will be empty too.

What happens if you try something like this ?

std::string openDoorTags[50];<br />
openDoorTags[0] = "Test";<br />
char copyToBuf[128]={0};<br />
strcpy(copyToBuf, openDoorTags[0].c_str());

Sorry ... I forgot to mention that the string buffer has data in it. But I will try the snippet that you supplied.
