I want to select text in the Edit control and make it has visual effect that represents the highlight of selected text. But how does WM_SETSEL come? It was undefined in the edition of my Visual Studio.
Any suggestion please??

The default behaviour of edit controls is showing the selection only when the control has the focus. From your description I assume that another control (the search input field or a button) has the focus when you try to set the selection.
But there is an option to show the selection even when the edit control does not have the focus: ES_NOHIDESEL[^].
Unfortunately the style can't be changed once the control exists. You have to set it when creating the edit control. If it is defined as static resource, set the option there (e.g. using the resource editor). For dynamically created edit controls pass the flag in the style parameter when calling CreateWindow or CreateWindowEx.

That's 100% right !! It had to do with ES_NOHIDESEL style, I had succeeded tap into it. However, thanks to all members of this community that had posed attention to my problem.

Hello Friends
I am creating 100s of buttons in Window application.I used naming like IDB_BUTTON1, IDB_BUTTON2..... IDB_BUTTON100.And assign variable m_button1.
Now, I want to convert string (m_button+ ID) to m_button1 of CButton type.
Regards

You cannot normally do that, generated resource IDs are numbers. You can use strings to refer to resources but it requires a detailed knowledge of resource files and the rc compiler. This also begs the question, why do you need so many buttons?
|
|
|
|
|
So many buttons are requirement of Application.
Actually, I tried with Macro. But ,again I need to use Variable value to identify 100 buttons tht macro doesn't consider variable.
I used like
#define CONCAT(ID,NUMBER) ID##NUMBER
And IN Code
for(int num =0; num < 100; num++)
CONCAT(m_Button,num)
So, this one fails.
|
|
|
|
|
Like I said, you cannot do it, as resource ids are integer values.
And chances are if the application needs 100 buttons, then there is something wrong with the design.
|
|
|
|
|
I beg to disagree on some grid based applications I routinely get up over 200 buttons but there are tricks which I will discuss with him.

I suspect you need all the buttons for something like I have done which was a grid display for a process plant control switches for pumps and the like.
What you can do is attach a text string as either a property of the button handle via "SetProp" or alternative set the string as
a resource using RT_STRING to the ID of the button and use FindResourceEx to pull back the string matching the button ID. The
String resources are stored in sections of up to 16 strings per section so you will need to provide a function to pull it back.
Here is a sort of normal code for pulling back a string resource
String Resources | Ruminations[^]
The SetProp way is easier but can only be created in the WM_CREATE of the button creation, or just after the CreateWindowEx call creating the button and so needs a little more setup work than a string resource list.
In vino veritas

How are you creating all these buttons?
Anytime I need more than a few of the same type, I create them dynamically and add their references to a collection. You then reference them via an "index" (which is the equivalent of an ID).

I think control array will help you.
void CControlArrayDlg::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
CDialogEx::DoDataExchange(pDX);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_BUTTON1, m_CtrlButton[0]);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_BUTTON2, m_CtrlButton[1]);
}

Hello, I am trying to code a program which evaluates expressions in reverse polish notations. For now, it should work only with numbers and operands ( +, -, * and / ).
Here is the code I have written:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <conio.h>
#define MAX 41
int t, i, v1, v2;
int top = -1;
char seq[40];
char rpn[40];
char fin[40];
int main()
{
printf("introduce the numbers and opreands in rpn \n");
fgets(seq,40,stdin);
t=strlen(seq);
for (i=0;i<=t;i++)
if (isdigit(seq[i]))
{
Push(rpn, seq[i]);
}
if (ispunct(seq[i]));
v1=pop(rpn);
v2=pop(rpn);
if (seq[i] = '+');
push(fin, v1+v2);
if (seq[i] = '-');
push(fin, v1-v2);
if (seq[i] = '*');
push(fin, v1*v2);
if (seq[i] = '/');
push(fin, v1/v2);
printf(fin);
}
int isempty() {
if(top == -1)
return 1;
else
return 0;
}
int isfull() {
if(top == MAX)
return 1;
else
return 0;
}
int peek() {
return seq[top];
}
int pop() {
int data;
if(!isempty()) {
data = seq[top];
top = top - 1;
return data;
}else {
printf("Could not retrieve data, Stack is empty.\n");
}
}
int push(int data) {
if(!isfull()) {
top = top + 1;
seq[top] = data;
}else {
printf("Could not insert data, Stack is full.\n");
}
}
There are, I think, some big mistakes i can't solve by myself, since im a beginner in programming. I have searched for a solution on the internet, but i don't truly understand them.
The idea of my code is that the user types some numbers and operands like this: 2 3 +. In this case, the program should add 2 and 3 in a stack and when it reads and operator, pop the lasts 2 numbers on the pile and do the corresponding opperation.
When i build it I have this errors:
||=== Build file: "no target" in "no project" (compiler: unknown) ===|
C:\Users\Jordi\Documents\RPN.o:RPN.c|| undefined reference to `Push|
||error: ld returned 1 exit status|
||=== Build failed: 2 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|

Unless this is a fragment, it seems like you have done no effort to actually implement push and pop.
strlen (the usual one) is from string.h which you should therefore include.

You are right, sorry, I even forgot to put them in the code! This is something a partner gave and explained to me. There are some functions i dont even use. It's because I understand it i didn't put in here. My bad.
The full code looks like:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <conio.h>
#define MAX 41
int t, i, v1, v2;
int top = -1;
char seq[40];
char rpn[40];
char fin[40];
int main()
{
printf("introduce the numbers and opreands in rpn \n");
fgets(seq,40,stdin);
t=strlen(seq);
for (i=0;i<=t;i++)
if (isdigit(seq[i]))
{
Push(rpn, seq[i]);
}
if (ispunct(seq[i]));
v1=pop(rpn);
v2=pop(rpn);
if (seq[i] = '+');
push(fin, v1+v2);
if (seq[i] = '-');
push(fin, v1-v2);
if (seq[i] = '*');
push(fin, v1*v2);
if (seq[i] = '/');
push(fin, v1/v2);
printf(fin);
}
int isempty() {
if(top == -1)
return 1;
else
return 0;
}
int isfull() {
if(top == MAX)
return 1;
else
return 0;
}
int peek() {
return seq[top];
}
int pop() {
int data;
if(!isempty()) {
data = seq[top];
top = top - 1;
return data;
}else {
printf("Could not retrieve data, Stack is empty.\n");
}
}
int push(int data) {
if(!isfull()) {
top = top + 1;
seq[top] = data;
}else {
printf("Could not insert data, Stack is full.\n");
}
}

Just move them to above main then. Or use forward declarations.

Keep in mind that the c/c++ is case sensitive. I'm looking at this line in particular.
Push(rpn, seq[i]);

Ahh, the classic "copy & paste" bug.
I'm usually the one to get chided for printing off code snippets and retype them line by line into my project. Consequently, I've never been a victim of this type of problem.

Yes, this will not compile, and even if it did, none of this code is going to work. You are reading a string into the array seq and then using Push to copy characters back into the same array. You are also storing everything as characters but when you use Pop, you think you are rectrieving an integer. And you assume that each string will be two digits followed by a mathematical symbol.

Hi all, I have a variable declared:
CMyDlg* m_pDlg1;
I initialized it as NULL and expected it to change when passed to CallDlg. But it stays as NULL before and after the call, therefore creating new modeless CMyDlg everytime it gets called (instead of bringing up the existing one the foreground).
What did I do wrong? Shouldn't m_pDlg1 point to the newly created dialog?
Please help. Thanks in advance.
void CMyApp::ActivateDlg1()
{
CallDlg(1, m_pDlg1); }
void CMyApp::CallDlg(int nType, CMyDlg* pDlg)
{
if(pDlg) pDlg->SetForegroundWindow(); else
{
pDlg = new CMyDlg(nType);
if(!::IsWindow(pDlg->GetSafeHwnd())) pDlg->Create(IDD_MY_DLG, NULL);
}
}

1. I do not see where, how and when you set it to NULL.
2. Did you debug your code to see the "real" values of all the variables?
3. To make debugging easier for yourself you should avoid write the code in the manner
if(pDlg) pDlg->SetForegroundWindow(); but
if(pDlg)
pDlg->SetForegroundWindow();
4. how and where do you delete the m_pDlg1 pointer?

1. I didn't copy the whole code, just the snippet.
2. Yes, I did. That's how I could state 'it stays as NULL before and after the call'.
3. I do. Thanks.
4. Same reason as number 1 above.
Anyway, I solved it as pointed by CPallini below. I was missing the ampersand symbol to indicate passing by pointer. Thanks anyway.

If you want to change the passed pointer value then you have to pass its address (because, like any other kind of parameter, pointers are passed by value) ending up with a double pointer or a reference to the pointer. e.g.
void CMyApp::CallDlg(int nType, CMyDlg & * pDlg)
void CMyApp::CallDlg(int nType, CMyDlg * & pDlg)
{
}

Ah, you are right. To pass by address, I need the & character. It's working fine now. Thanks so much.
void CMyApp::CallDlg(int nType, CMyDlg* &pDlg)
{
}
