I need to buy a tool that manages the creation
of an executable files that self-installs the developed
application, all needed libraries (dll, ocx, ...)
and all files required by the application (database, configuration
files, ...) in order to simplify the installation procedure.
Does someone know which is an usefull tool ???
Thanks a lot.

Inno Setup is a Very good free tool that does just this.
There are two:
Inno Setup, www.jrsoftware.org - Free and creates very professtional looking installers.
Or you can use an enhanced version called,
My Inno Setup Extentions, http://www.wintax.nl/isx/ - this is Inno Setup +, still free but you can do some pascal scripting and add your own custom pages to the installation as well as installing from the internet.
Honestly, i have never come accross a situation where i have had to buy an installer since there are very good free ones arround.

HANDLE HandleFile;
int byteread;
int i;
int len=sizeof(devList);
char buffer[4096];
TCHAR szerror[100];
SOCKADDR_IRDA address={AF_IRDA, 0,0,0,0, "c"};
SOCKADDR_IRDA d;
SOCKET sock;
SOCKET e;
DWORD WrittenNum;
if((sock=socket(AF_IRDA, SOCK_STREAM, 0))==INVALID_SOCKET)
{
wsprintf(szerror, TEXT("Errore"));
MessageBox(NULL, szerror, MB_OK);
return;
}
devList.numDevice=0;
while((devList.numDevice==0)&&(count<=NUMETENT))
{
getsockopt(sock, SOL_IRLMP, IRLMP_ENUMDEVICES,(char*)&devList, &len);
count++;
}
for(i=0; i<4;i++)
{
address.irdaDeviceID[i]=devList.Device[0].irdaDeviceID[i];
}
connect(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&address, sizeof(SOCKADDR_IRDA));
but i don't finish.
Help me?

In Visual Basic 6, I want to make a mediaplayer executable using MS control: Mediaplayer to play mpg files.
I've got a problem if I opened the same movie object twice without knowing whether or not a same application was playing at the moment.
How can I determine the status of a mediaplayer obect so that when I play it for the second time, the first one, if still playing, can be stopped and closed?
I have tried to mediaplayer.stop and end the application when either form and mediaplayer losts its focus. It is supposed to work like this: when I run/play a second movie, the first one may lost focus and thus being stopped and closed. But it failed, i.e when I click the application twice, the second one will pop up and run, however, the first movie will be running simutaneously at background.
Any comments and suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
DJ

In creating a dialog indirectly, i have to specify the DLGTEMPLATE.x, y, cx, cy in dialog unit. However, I only have the pixel positions at hand. How can i do conversion on it before the dialog is created ?
|
|
|
|

How about using:
MapDialogRect() and GetDialogBaseUnits() (see MSDN)??
You create the dialog but before you make it visible use these functions to make any changes to the dialog you need. If you must get these figures before you create the dialog and are not using the system font then you need to get the text metrics of the font you wish to use and do the conversion yourself.
hope this helps.

I do this in my constructor:
class CMyClass
public:
CMyClass() throw CMyException()
{
...
throw CMyException(234);
}
...
the compiler says "Cannot convert from int to CMyException"
daah!?!?!??!!?!?
How do I implement exceptions in my class!?!?!?!

How are you defining CMyException? Does the class have a constructor accepting an int as its argument?

Yes!
Here is the actual class:
class CSocketException
{
public:
CSocketException(int excID): m_ExceptionID(excID)
{
}
~CSocketException(){};
int GetID(){return m_ExceptionID;};
private:
int m_ExceptionID;
};

VC++ is not standard-compliant in the area of declaring exceptions thrown by a function. Change your code to:
class CMyClass{
public:
CMyClass() throw ()
{
...
throw CMyException(234);
}
...or simply omit the throw() part.

Can I put throw() in a declaration too?

Hello everyone!
I'm facing a problem with the CRichEditCtrl::LineScroll member function.
I've created a RichEditCtrl (without using the ES_CENTER or ES_RIGHT styles) yet when I call the member function with the second parameter which corresponds to the number of characters to scroll horizontally in the ctrl, nothing happens.
If anyone has a suggestion on what might be wrong it would help alot!!
Thanks!

I've a CFormView derived class CMyView, which contains a member CTabView derived from CTabCtrl, and CTabView contains several CDialog derived classes.
For DoDataExchange(pDX) in CMyView. It is reasonable that I call DoDataExchange(pDX) of the child CTabView and in turns call DoDataExchange(pDX) of CMyDialogs.
However, it raised assertion error, as i traced back, GetDlgItem() couldn't get the dialog item.
It seems I should create another CDataExchange to do DDX for each child, but i don't know how to create CDataExchange instance myself.

Just call COtherDialog::UpdateData(TRUE) instead. Basically, UpdateData creates CDataExchange instance and calls DoDataExchange when bSaveAndValidate is TRUE.

How can I change the caption of my window (CMainFrame) ?
--
Nice greets, Daniel.
|
|
|
|
|
The CMainFrame caption is build from IDR_MAINFRAME resource string and a string describing the active document. You can change the IDR_MAINFRAME string in resources.
If you want to change the caption at runtime, override the OnUpdateFrameTitle virtual method of CMainFrame or your CMDIChildFrame derived class (for the active document caption, if you are building MDI application).
Also SetWindowText method sets the caption immediatelly, but this will be sooner or later set back to default caption.
