Now that North Korea is threatening the US with "bitter defeat and death", I suppose we'll finally see if the war in Iraq is really about disarming threats to US, or simply freeing up the land for the fabled oil pipline as some claim. Presently North Korea seems to be a greater threat to the US than Iraq, who is at least feinging coperation. What will the US and its allies do?
My guess is that Iraq and North Korea are in cahoots, and North Korea is just blowing smoke to get the US's attention off Iraq. Why else would a seemingly insignificant little country with a couple of nukes be standing up and boasting so loudly like the c**k-of-the-walk against one of the largest military forces in the world? My other guess is that maybe N. Korea figures the US is too busy with Iraq to do anything about it and is just shouting "mlah, mlah, mlah!" like a little brat from the sidelines.
My third guess is that the US actually may end up carpet bombing N. Korea if they try anything stupid, and then move on the way you turn to bigger threats after swatting a mosiquito. I'm not saying that's right, I'm just guessing. The US has shown tremendous restraint after September 11. These rogue nations better not push their luck.
On another note, there have been a lot of anti-war protestors in the US lately. "Stop the war, stop the war!" they cry. What will they be saying after N. Korea suddenly delivers their brand of bitter defeat and death, or even attempts to? It's like the abused wife who suddenly attacks the cops when they come to arrest her husband.

Sorry. Somehow this ended up in the C++ forum. I didn't notice.

Here's a funny thing. I run several CP windows open in the morning as I catch up, so I saw this at the top, responded to it, and then thought 'what are all these programming questions doing in the soapbox ?'.

Are you an Extreme fan, or did you come up with 'Politacalamity' independently of their brilliant 'three sides to every story' album ?

Cool review. I hated the fourth album actually, but Pornografitti and II sides... are classics IMO.

Hi,
I have an onwer drawn button. I have noticed that when I tab, I do not see that it has "focus." What do I have to handle ( message wise) and besides drawing the dotted focus rectangle in the Drawitem to make the button show that it has focus when I tab through the different windows?
Thanks.

A control needs to have the WS_TABSTOP style for it to be included in the tab order.

there are many articles on CodeProject that demonstrate this (look in the Files and Folders section, and, here's mine). or, if you want to do it yourself, you can use FindFirstFile or _findfirst.

But if I want to get the file names from only "C:\Pictures\MyNewPic" only... how can I specify a dir so all these findfile functions only searches one dir?
I can't explain better I think!

Read the MSDN docs on FindFirstFile or _findfirst.

I assume you want this? sometimes I find I need to attach to the directory and not use a path.
hFind = FindFirstFile("C:\\Pictures\\MyNewPic\\*.*", &FindData);
bOK = (hFind != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE);
while(bOK)
{
bOK = FindNextFile(hFind, &m_FindData)
}

bOK = FindNextFile(hFind, &FindData)

So I can just do that, okay... I didn't understand it when I read in MSDN Library.

I want to make a proxy scaner, but I don't know how to open a socket.
I want to make connection to some computer and try to make a TCP/IP connection to a definite port. If I can connect to try whether It is a proxy server.
But I do not know how to make this in MFC.
Can someone help me?

Hi everyone. I have a question about the use of CFile. I have the code below, and the filename is that of a file which I have tested and determined exists, and is not shared. The file is an HTML file, and I want to take the contents of the HTML file (the text), and put it into a CString. The string will then be parsed and the hyperlinks extracted.
<br />
CFile cFile;<br />
CString strFileContents;<br />
<br />
cFile.Open(m_strFileName, CFile::modeRead | CFile::shareExclusive);<br />
cFile.Read(&strFileContents, cFile.GetLength());<br />
cFile.Close();<br />
The problem with the code above is that when the Read is performed, the program crashes. I tried using an old style C string in place of a CString, the data is read but a bunch of garbage chars are at the end of the string, and the program crashes when I hit Close(). Anyone know what I am doing wrong? I really want the file contents in a CString, because the necessary memory is allocated dynamically, and the CString Find functions are great for parsing.

First of all, you can't put the whole file in a single CString object.
You may try to read the file line by line.
You do not use the Read function correctly, first parameter is the block you read, the second is the size of that block. Usualy used for reading a binnary file.
Good Luck!

CSting doesn't allocated anything till you initialize it.
Since you didn't allocated, you got crash.
Change your code to the following:
cFile.Read(strFileContents.GetBuffer(SIZE), cFile.GetLength());
After finishing working with the string call
strFileContents.ReleaseBuffer();

Excuse me.
Today,I study the WTL Library's CSimpleArray class source code,I find the following code:
<code>template<class T>
class CSimpleArray
{
T* m_aT;
...
class Wrapper
{
public:
Wrapper(T& _t) : t(_t)
{
}
template <class _Ty>
void *operator new(size_t, _Ty* p)
{
return p;
}
T t;
};
void SetAtIndex(int nIndex, T& t)
{
new(&m_aT[nIndex]) Wrapper(t);
}
...
}</code> I can not understand the syntax about "new(&m_aT[nIndex]) Wrapper(t)" ,anyone can explain it? thanks first.
