Hi,

I developed a win32 windows dialog based application with windows XP and visual studio 2005. It is working fine but same application is not able to run on some system. I am getting a error message "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect".

I searched a lot on internet and I found that if I changes my Visual Stdio other than 2005 then problem might be resolve. But still with VS 2008 I am getting same error.

Please suggest me any workaround.

You should run the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) on the target machine.
The other option, linking statically with the runtime, has its drawbacks.

On each machine installing Redistributable package is not good idea.
What is other option please elaborate?

You should link statically the runtime, on Visual Studio choose the Project->Properties menu item, then select Configuration Properties->C/C++->Code Generation node eventually setting the Runtime Library to Multi-threaded (/MT).

You may also set the /MT switch in the command line.

You have to install the VC redistributable package[^] on the target machine. The link I provided is for VC2005, you have to look for the appropriate package depending on which IDE you used.

You could also statically link your exe with the MFC and C-runtime libraries (in which case, the size of the exe is much bigger).

Hi,

I had a similar problem recently and installing the 'Redistribution Package' did not solve it.

I found the Dependency Walker utility really handy (and its free), as it lets you see which libraries/dlls are needed for your app and a missing dll seems to be the cause of this error most of the time. Here's the link .....

Hope this helps,

Try to define your strings in the yourapp.rc file Smile | :)

STRINGTABLE

    IDC_CMD_BUTTON_1 "This is the tooltip for button 1" // the same IDC_CMD_BUTTON_1 ordered to the button 1
    IDC_CMD_BUTTON_2 "This is the tooltip for button 2" // the same IDC_CMD_BUTTON_2 ordered to the button 2

Trying to intercept Hyperlink dialog in edit mode CHtmlEditCtrl (WebBrowser control)

Hi,

I have an application that uses CHtmlEditCtrl for some WYSIWYG HTML editing. All is good, except that I need to add some custom protocols to the Hyperlink editor dialog. I have tried a couple of ways of doing this, but have some up against problem with each. The things tried are:

1. Open our own dialog in place of the in-built: ok if adding a new link, but when editing a link don't get the default behaviours of selecting the whole link text if caret is in middle of link, and can't get the existing URL to edit.

2. Catch the creation of the dialog with a hook, so I can fiddle with its controls: no good - the hook doesn't get entered on creation of the dialog

I would prefer option 1 if I can:
a. get it to select the whole link text (may not be required, but better if it can)
b. retrieve the URL of the selected link

Does anyone have any ideas? Has anyone managed to successfully intercept the Hyperlink dialog in any way?

Thanks,

Paul.

Try it

DWORD dwTest(1234);

cszTest.Format(_T("DEC: %u; HEX: 0x%08x"), dwTest, dwTest);

Hi Thanks for your kind reply..

I tried the way, but i guess it is showing me the memory location

DWORD dwTest(0xFFFFFFFF);
CString cszTest;
cszTest.Format(_T("DEC: %u HEX: 0x%08x"), dwTest, dwTest);
cout<<cszTest;

I am getting a output of

problem may be with cout and unicode. To ensure it, try with _tprintf(_T("%s", cszTest));

I don't know whether there is any unicode version of cout.

If the project setting is UNICODE, you may have to use as follows:
wcout << (LPCTSTR)cszTest;
Give it a try if cout is not working Smile | :)
