CDC::Rectangle() uses the current pen, not a brush. Create a new pen first, select it into the DC, and then try drawing it.

hi Thanks for the reply...I tried that way also, pls see the code, but not working.

Thanks very much

CFont font,font2;
CSize sz;
int x1=0,y1=0,x2=0,y2=0;
CString str=_T("HELLO WORLD");
VERIFY(font.CreateFont(
25, // nHeight
0, // nWidth
0, // nEscapement
0, // nOrientation
FW_NORMAL, // nWeight
FALSE, // bItalic
FALSE, // bUnderline
0, // cStrikeOut
ANSI_CHARSET, // nCharSet
OUT_DEFAULT_PRECIS, // nOutPrecision
CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS, // nClipPrecision
DEFAULT_QUALITY, // nQuality
DEFAULT_PITCH | FF_SWISS, // nPitchAndFamily
"Arial Narrow")); // lpszFacename

pDC ->SelectObject(font);

sz = pDC->GetTextExtent(str);

CPen myPen(PS_SOLID,1,RGB(10,255,10));

pDC->SelectObject(&myPen);

pDC->TextOut(5, 5, str);

pDC->Rectangle(5,5,sz.cx+5,sz.cy+5);

1) What is the value of sz? Is it returning a valid size?

2) What is Rectangle() returning? It should return TRUE if successful.

actually, CDC::Rectangle() does use the current brush for filling the rectangle. It uses the current pen only to draw the rectangle's edges.

I copied your code into my app, and it worked perfectly. It drew a green rectangle over the text.

rect and all giving me return value success

That is because the rectangle is over the text;) (ie. The text is behind the rectangle) If you shift the rectangle over a little, you will see the text behind it.

Inline Assembler Macros?

Hi, all

I am trying to write a high performance library by using inline assembler, but I have encountered a irritating problem. It seems that VC++ refuses to accept multi-instructions within the inline asm section for the macro. For example, I can write a inline assembler macro with the single instruction “mov eax, 0” but that’s it, VC++ refuses to accept anymore instructions. The following code might give a better understanding.

#define TestMacro1(x) _asm{ mov eax, 0 } // This works<br />
#define TestMacro2(x) _asm{ mov eax, 0; mov ebx, 0 } // This doesn’t

So what I am trying to do here is to add more then one instruction into the macro, but I don’t know how. Any ideas on how to solve this are highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

just a guess, untested

#define testmacro(x) _asm mov eax, 0 _asm mov ebx, 0

My untested guess would be

#define TestMacro2(x) _asm{ mov eax, 0 \
                            mov ebx, 0 }

When I try to compile this:

#define TestMacro2(x) _asm{ mov eax, 0 \
                            mov ebx, 0 }

int main() {
	TestMacro2(0);
	return 0;
}

I get the following error and warning with VC++:

warning C4405: 'mov' : identifier is reserved word<br />
error C2400: inline assembler syntax error in 'second operand'; found 'register'

Thanks anyway Smile | :)

I am sorry Aidman that it didn't work. It was just a suggestion that I didn't test, because I was in a hurry.

Nope. Won't work. The '\' at the end of the line will cause the two lines to be concatenated, effectively becoming

#define TestMacro2(x) _asm{ mov eax, 0 mov ebx, 0 }

You'll have to use PJ's solution to get the result he's after.

It was a shot in the dark. In assembly there are no line delimiters such as ; (I am sure you know this), while PJ's solution seemed to work I thought he could give it a try with my idea. Obviously, it doesn't work. Big Grin | :-D

The __asm is its own separator, so __asm mov ax,0 __asm mov bx,0 is perfectly valid code.

Hi,

Did you try:

#define TestMacro2(x) { _asm mov eax, 0 _asm mov ebx, 0 }

or even

#define TestMacro2(x) { \
_asm mov eax, 0 \
_asm mov ebx, 0 \
}

Both of the above should work - note the surrounding braces {} are not necessary but are there to make the code look prettier. Smile | :)

CPropertySheet Apply button disabled

Hello all

I'm coding an application using CPropertySheet and adding some property pages to this property sheet. The problem the Apply button by default is disabled, is there any way to enable it for all the property pages contained in the property sheet.

If any one knows how to do it, pls help me.

thanks for your time.
Hari.

From my copy of MSDN

CPropertyPage::SetModified() Call to activate or deactivate the Apply Now button.

Thanks for the reply. Now the Apply button is activated whenever I change any of the Page properties.

Thanks for answering my question.

CAsyncSocket usage

14-Jul-03 11:50

i need to send a UDP broadcast message to a network of sensors, and i'm trying to use the CAsyncSocket class. the sensors are accepting text string commands on port 7000. here's the code:

<br />
int errorCode;<br />
<br />
if (!m_udpSocket.Create(0, SOCK_DGRAM))<br />
{<br />
     AfxMessageBox("Create Error");<br />
     errorCode = GetLastError();<br />
}<br />
<br />
// xxxxx is the command<br />
if (m_udpSocket.SendTo("xxxxx", sizeof("xxxxx"), 7000) == SOCKET_ERROR)<br />
{<br />
     AfxMessageBox("Send Error");<br />
     errorCode = GetLastError();<br />
}<br />
<br />
m_udpSocket.Close();<br />

the Create() function is working, but SendTo() gives me an error. the errorCode is 0, but this doesn't seem to match any of the winsock codes on MSDN. am i missing something or leaving something out? i don't know much about networking, but i have to use UDP and the sensors don't support CArchives so i can't use CSocket. any help is greatly appreciated!
(p.s. -- if there is a syntax error or something, it's probably just my typing - i don't have my hands on the actual code atm.)

replace sizeof("xxxxx") with strlen("xxxxx"), and if it still doesn't work try to put this line before SendTo().

int on = 1, optlen = sizeof(on);
m_udpSocket.SetSockOpt(SO_BROADCAST,&on,optlen);
