This
UINT scancode = ::MapVirtualKey(VK_F1, MAPVK_VK_TO_VSC);
gives me a scan code of 0x3B. Isn't that the F1 scan code?

Hi,
I try to resize a Custom Control in the OnSize Function of my Views OnSize Function. There is no Error, but nothing happens:
afx_msg void CCustomView::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy) {
if (::IsWindow(m_datagrid)) {
m_datagrid.SetWindowPos(&wndTopMost, 12, 48, 500, 500, SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_NOMOVE);
}
CView::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);
}
What am I do wrong? m_datagrid.SetWindowPos is executed, I checked it by debugging.
Thank you for your help,
Johannes

What are you wanting to happen?
You use wndTopMost but it's ignored because of SWP_NOZORDER.
You use x and y positions but they're ignored because of SWP_NOMOVE.
That leaves resize

Yes, it would have been better if I posted the code without the flags.
When I do not use the Flags it`s the same thing: My Custom control is not be resized and not moved, and this is what I want it to do...

If you want to move and resize, just use MoveWindow().
The other problem may be where you're doing it from.
The view may not get a WM_SIZE message after the child window
you're moving is created (until the next time the view is resized).
Put a breakpoint on the SetWindowPos() call to check.

Hi Mark,
thank you. With MoveWindow() it works!

I have two programs that share a pipe, a server and a client.
The server creates the pipe and then calls
ConnectNamedPipe(pipe_name, NULL);
The client opens the pipe
CreateFile(
pipe_name,
GENERIC_READ |
GENERIC_WRITE,
0,
NULL,
OPEN_EXISTING,
0,
NULL);
But I need to know if the pipe exists even if the server has not called ConnectNamedPipe. Then I need the client to wait forever until the server calls ConnectNamedPipe. But if the pipe is not there at all, it should skip. Any way to do that?

Why don't you try calling CreateFile without the server running and see what you get? I bet that CreateFile returns something like ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND since the pipe doesn't exist yet and you are correctly specifying OPEN_EXISTING. Once you have that "doesn't exist" error, simply loop and repetitively call it until it returns success.

Hi, my problem is that if the pipe doesn't exist my program shouldn't call anymore. But CreateFile might fail because the server has not called ConnectNamedPipe yet, in which case I should wait until it does, and there lies the problem - the client program is called by third party software which in turn might be requested by my server program or not. If not, then it means that my server program will never create that pipe.
My problem is that the client has to distinguish between 1) the pipe not existing, and 2) the pipe existing but not waiting for connection.

To do that, the client has to make some API call. Make that call be CreateFile and examine the return value and/or the error code. If the call succeeds and you don't want to use the pipe, simply close it after you open it via CloseHandle.

I'm in process of moving a large app from VS 2003 to 2008 (also moved to Vista).
Seems my tree controls are no longer receiving WM_NOTIFY messages (particularly TVN_SELCHANGED) through my message map in my main dialog window. They worked fine in 2003.
I've been searching all over, and also looking for any good tutorials on porting apps to the new platform, but haven't come up with much.
Anybody have any ideas...?
Thanx,
Rick

What code are you using to handle the messages?

Pretty standard stuff in my main dialog:
ON_NOTIFY(TVN_SELCHANGED, TREE_MYCOMPUTER, OnTvnSelchangedMainFoldertree)
That worked fine in VS 2003, but doesn't work with 2008 and the latest SDK/Framework.
It's a skin based app, so all controls are created dynamically, and there are defines for each control, and a multitude of maps to contain everything.
So, what I did:
My tree is a class derived from the standard CTreeCtrl. I put a handler in that class for ON_NOTIFY_REFLECT, and it will get the notification now.
What worries me, is I have hundreds of hand coded handlers in my main message map, and now I'm going to have to test them all, and try to find workarounds, or just go back to building on 2003...

Here's the wizard-generated code for a TVN_SELCHANGED handler.
Any differences from yours?
ON_NOTIFY(TVN_SELCHANGED, IDC_TREE1, &CMyDlg::OnTvnSelchangedTree1)
afx_msg void OnTvnSelchangedTree1(NMHDR *pNMHDR, LRESULT *pResult);
void CMyDlg::OnTvnSelchangedTree1(NMHDR *pNMHDR, LRESULT *pResult)
{
LPNMTREEVIEW pNMTreeView = reinterpret_cast<lpnmtreeview>(pNMHDR);
*pResult = 0;
}</lpnmtreeview>
Note the way the method pointer is passed in the message map entry
(this change and its effect is still being debated on other forums).
Also make sure you don't have a OnNotify() override that's not calling the
base class OnNotify().
That's all I can think of at the moment.

Hi everyone!
I want to make a C++ service (that runs constantly in the background) and what it does is every few seconds, it checks the content of a folder. If the folder is empty it does nothing and if it has some files in it it will execute a script (that will be written, a batch file)
Can anyone help me make something like that? It's supposed to be quite simple.
Thanks!

The idea that I can be presented with a problem, set out to logically solve it with the tools at hand, and wind up with a program that could not be legally used because someone else followed the same logical steps some years ago and filed for a patent on it is horrifying.

Hi, Here is singleton class. I have written destroy function to destoy the instance. But it is giving me error like test::~test' : cannot access protected member declared in class 'test'.
<br />
class test<br />
{<br />
protected:<br />
static test* m_instance;<br />
test(){}<br />
virtual ~test(){}<br />
<br />
public: <br />
static test* Instance()<br />
{<br />
return m_instance;<br />
}<br />
<br />
};<br />
test* test::m_instance = NULL;<br />
<br />
class test1 : public test<br />
{<br />
protected:<br />
test1(){}<br />
virtual ~test1()<br />
{<br />
destroy();<br />
} <br />
static void destroy()<br />
{<br />
if(m_instance)<br />
{<br />
delete m_instance;<br />
m_instance=NULL;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
public:<br />
static test1* instance()<br />
{<br />
if(!m_instance)<br />
{<br />
test:: m_instance = new test1();<br />
}<br />
return (test1*) m_instance;<br />
}<br />
<br />
void disp()<br />
{<br />
cout<<"hi"<<endl;<br />
}<br />
};<br />
<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
test1::instance()->disp();<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />
Pleae correct me where should I delete this instance.

I guess you are using VC6 ? This is a bug in the VC6 compiler. It is a very old compiler so I suggest that you upgrade to a more recent Visual Studio.
If you want to stick with VC6, make the destructors public, this should fix the problem.
