Just call DoModal [^] member function of the dialog in the, menu message handler.

I think you are trying to compile the code, which was written using turbo c++ compiler? Because

anassamar wrote:
'graphics.h':

and

anassamar wrote:

are graphical functions and header file provided in turbo c++ compiler.

To add to Mohan Ramachandra's reply, this was a proprietary library for the DOS environment. In other words, this was a graphics library for use in DOS programs only, not Windows or anything else. It was also designed and provided by one company - it is not standard, is not a part of C, and not a part of C++.

While you certainly can do graphics for Windows, it is done differently. See here[^] for graphics stuff that is used with windows at the api level, though there is more in knowing when and how to use this stuff. Do note that normally in a windows program, one only draws to a window device context in response to a WM_PAINT message. (If you are using MFC, that would be in OnPaint or OnDraw. )

Graphics and display is different in Windows than it was in DOS. You have a lot of research and reading to do.

Good luck.

hi friends,

i am using Visual studio 6.0, Windows.

i dowload an opensource project "wput" :: Wput is a command-line ftp-client that looks like wget but instead of downloading, uploads files or whole directories to remote ftp-servers.

http://wput.sourceforge.net/[^]

as i compile the project i got tons of errors,

ftp-ls.c(40) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'unistd.h': No such file or directory

unistd.h is not present anywhere in my system.

Any suggestions!

thats why you are getting the error. Find out that file, and set the correct 'include path' in project settings. Big Grin | :-D

Can you use the pre-compiled binary instead of compiling it?

I want to say that in-order to use the functionality of wput can you just use the
binary file instead of compiling it? Or do you need to compile the source code?

Have you read the INSTALL file that comes with the source package. It will have the information on how to
compile.

As the name suggest, unistd.h is a UNIX-like (maybe Linux) specific header.
Have you read the compiling instruction on the project's home page?
(I guess you may compile it on Windows provided you use, for instance, Cygwin).

Hi ,

I am using MessageBox function as

MessageBox(NULL,L"Please start application ",L"Test",MB_OK |MB_SYSTEMMODAL);

I want to show this message box always on top so that user have to close it first. When I use MB_SYSTEMMODAL to make it modal message,default blank icon is added into messageBox caption.
I want to messageBox as modal but without icon in caption. Is there any way to do this.?

Thanks
ABM

Hope this one will help

MessageBox(NULL,L"Please start application ",L"Test",MB_OK |MB_TOPMOST);

MB_TOPMOST : Creates the message box with the WS_EX_TOPMOST window style.

Hi Mohan,

MB_TOPMOST property is ignored by vista. It is working fine on Windows XP,but not on Vista.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
