Hi there
I'm trying to refactor some old code, and in the process I'm introducing a dll, that's to be used from atleast 5 app's. The exe's has som objects with operations on them that i want to call. And I run into troubles. And I cannot figure out how to make a funktion call from an mfc extension dll to an exe.
Please hint me.
thanks

How about passing the DLL a pointer to a static or global function from the main process?

well, i'm just not happy with globals, but it might be the only way.
I was hoping on something like an COM emulated solution, through interfaces or
just through instances.

Just wondering if you are are exporting the function/methods (and or the objects) from the .exe.
Trust in the code Luke. Yea right!

Hello,
I am new to MFC, please bear with me.
Within MainFrm.cpp, I have a function that is mapped as
ON_COMMAND(ID_STARTUP, DoStartupFunctions)
Now, I want to execute this before user can do anything else. Can you guide me on this ? Thanks.

Go to class wizard ( CTRL + W) and map a function to the message WM_INIT
Papa
while (TRUE)
Papa.WillLove ( Bebe ) ;

Depending on what things you want to happen initially, you may need to put code in several classes, not just CMainFrame.

Normally the applications get initialized in the OnInitInstance handler.
Well after having said that, think always in the OOP and initialize class members inside it's own owner class (this will make your life easier).
And after having said this and going where you need to go..., I think there's a handler for OnInitialUpdate (If you want to initialize things after the view is created) OnCreate (if you want to initialize things while the view is created). Take a look at the class wizard as other CPian advice's you Ctrl+W and choose the best handler for your pourpose.
Hope this helps...

In your app's InitInstance() method, right after you create the mainframe window, do:
pMainFrameWnd->PostMessage (WM_COMMAND, ID_STARTUP);
This will cause the DoStartupFunctions() handler to be called before the user is permitted to interact with the app.

Hi,
I'm looking for an Edit box where i can set the font size something bigger. Do somebody know such of control??
Thanks,
Willem

Yes, the Edit control is what you want. Just select a different font into its DC.

Use SetFont(), which is a method of the base CWnd class. See the documentation of CFont before using this function.

By using SetFont():
BOOL CMyDlg::OnInitDialog()<br />
{<br />
CDialog::OnInitDialog();<br />
<br />
m_font.CreateStockObject(SYSTEM_FIXED_FONT);<br />
m_edit1.SetFont(&m_font);<br />
<br />
return TRUE;<br />
}

create a font, and set the edit control to use it. The font object should be a member var in your dlg class.
Method 1:
---------
OnInitDialog()
{
...
m_oFont.CreatePointFont(80,"MS Sans serif");
m_oEditControl.SetFont(&m_oFont);
...
}
Method 2:
---------
static LOGFONT BASED_CODE sEditFont =
{ -10, 0, 0, 0, FW_BOLD, 0, 0, 0, 0, OUT_STRING_PRECIS, CLIP_STROKE_PRECIS,
DEFAULT_QUALITY, VARIABLE_PITCH|FF_SWISS, "Arial"};
OnInitDialog()
{
...
m_oFont.CreateFontIndirect(&sEditFont);
m_oEditControl.SetFont(&m_oFont);
...
}

There are a bunch of utilities here (like grids) that I would like to try out from VB.NET. Microsoft says that they have made it pretty easy but I have not seen any examples of how to do it. Anyone with experience at this?

I think the IShellLink interface is what you are after.

Hi, I am required to create two activeX applications, one of them will be pre-install on the computer an the factory and the other will be used by service and support when the user logs in the site, the activeX will gather information from the system in order for S&S to keep track of the users who log in to the site.
It is also requested not to use the default pop-up window from IE but our own pop-up window to provide the information about the activeX.
Well the problem is I am an student and I have no clue about activeX, so if someone could share some tutorials or skeleton code, it would be great.

Thank you for helping.

Dear all,
I am using the following function to display the members of a memberlist.
I need also to display the books of a booklist. If I use the comments then there is no compilation problem, but I cant display the books, on the other hand if I do not use the comments there is a compilation problem because get_member() function does not accept class Member* argument, but only class Book* argument. How can I generalise the function to accept both arguments, and display both books and members using the same function?
template<class object="">
void List<object>::displayElement(char* type)
{
if (num_elements == 0)
cout<<"No "<<type<<" is="" found="" in="" the="" "<<type<<="" "array.\n";
="" else
="" for(int="" element="0;" element<this-="">num_elements; element++)
{
cout<<'\n';
//this->element_list[element]->display(association_list.get_member(element_list[element]));
}
}
Regards,
grscot

Fix your template parameter to make it more understandable. I must see "template."
