I don't see an actual error in the messages, just warnings (unless you have warnings set to be treated as errors). Are there no other messages?

Those are the only messages I'm getting, but it's not letting me execute. The linker gives me:
g++: C:\Dev-C++\Borland\BCC55\Lib\PSDK\winmm.lib: linker input file unused since linking not done
but I don't know if that's relevent or not. Any ideas?
|
|
|
|
|
That warning is harmless -- it's just saying that a library was not included since it never got to the link stage.
Sounds like the compilation proceeded normally, but it never created an executable for some reason. Perhaps it's a problem with project settings... I'm not familiar enough with Dev-C++ to really debug any further, sorry

hi..
i am about to write a report on Microsoft CSocket and CAsyncSocket.
I've heard from ppl that CSocket and CAsyncSocket sucks!!!
i would like to request ppl here who have used CSocket and CAsyncSocket to please provide me with COMMENTS and LINKS which can prove that CSocket and CAsyncSocket are not worth using and contains loopholes...
Would you be pls as kind as to gimme some LINKS and COMMENTS on HOW and WHY do CSocket and CAsyncSocket sucks..!
Tks a lot..
With Regards

Read the Winsock Programmers FAQ (Google for it). There is a text there about why it's bad.

I use the GDI+ in VC7 to save an image. It work very well when I want to save as tiff, png and jpeg. But the program fails to do so when I want to save as wmf, exif and emf.
I consult the msdn and find in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/gdicpp/GDIPlus/UsingGDIPlus/UsingImageEncodersandDecoders/Retrievingthe.asp
it said that
"The function GetEncoderClsid in the following example receives the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) type of an encoder and returns the class identifier (CLSID) of that encoder. The MIME types of the encoders built into Microsoft Windows GDI+ are as follows:
image/bmp
image/jpeg
image/gif
image/tiff
image/png"
Thus it seems that we could not save an image as wmf, exif or emf format. But I also find that
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/media/imagconvert.asp?target=conver
In the C#, we could save an image as wmf, exif or emf format with no pains.
Does anyone know how to solve this puzzle? Thanks a lot!

Maybe VS.NET adds encoders?
Have you tried enumerating the encoders and getting the available list?

Here is the function GetImageCLSID
static int GetImageCLSID(const WCHAR* format, CLSID* pCLSID)
{
UINT num = 0; // number of image encoders
UINT size = 0; // size of the image encoder array in bytes
ImageCodecInfo* pImageCodecInfo = NULL;
GetImageEncodersSize(&num, &size);
if(size == 0)
return -1; // Failure
pImageCodecInfo = (ImageCodecInfo*)(malloc(size));
if(pImageCodecInfo == NULL)
return -1; // Failure
GetImageEncoders(num, size, pImageCodecInfo);
for(UINT j = 0; j < num; ++j)
{
if( wcscmp(pImageCodecInfo[j].MimeType, format) == 0 )
{
*pCLSID = pImageCodecInfo[j].Clsid;
free(pImageCodecInfo);
return j; // Success
}
}
free(pImageCodecInfo);
return -1; // Failure
}

Is there a way that i can set/change a control extended style at run time without having to create it again (Create(...),CreateEx(...))?
|
|

Some styles can be changed at run-time, some cannot.

In general, ModifyStyle and ModifyStyleEx. However, the list control has its own extended styles that must be set through SetExtendedStyle.
ModifyStyle(Ex) works by calling SetWindowLong with the GWL_STYLE or GWL_EXSTYLE parameters as appropriate.
Some of the settings changed by this method won't take effect until either SetWindowPos is called, and some styles can't be changed after creation.

I was curious if writing code using more traditional C-like character parsing and handling is more efficient under high volume scenarios than using STL strings?
for instance, if we use strtok and all those string manipulation stuff that C and C++ offer, do they perform better than using STL string and its various functions, if efficiency is of critical concern?
thanks

To help answer, I'll let you know a little secret: The two words "STL" and "efficiency" are mutually exclusive.
|
|
|
|

The simplest answer has to be 'suck it and see'.
I seem to recall that Herb Sutter did some trials and discovered that STL tended to be rarely worse and sometimes a bit better than if you'd written it by hand. They're either on his site[^] or at C/C++ Users' Journal[^].

They may be faster in error free situations.
However consider error handling and ease of coding / maintainance before you go away from STL strings. Use STL until your profiling shows you that STL is the bottleneck.
It's likely that algorithmic peformance for parsing may make a bigger impact. For parsing code look at boost::regex or boost::spirit, or depending on what you need maybe flex and bison (lex and yacc) or a scripting language.

If efficiency is critical, I wouldn't use neither STL nor STL C++ library. As suggested before, I would go for a library or parsing generator toolkit capable of generating a FSA parser.

When you get down to it, you can not know which is better until you test it. Try to do some small scale mock ups of the code and test the speed.

Hi,
I'm trying to give a list box on a dialog a tool tip using CToolTipCtrl.
Here's the code I used:
CToolTipCtrl tooltip;
tooltip.Create(this,TTS_ALWAYSTIP); //this is the dialog having the dialog
listbox=(CListBox *)GetDlgItem(ID_LISTBOX);
//Get client area of list box relative to the dialog
::GetWindowRect(listbox->m_hWnd,&rect);
BOOL b=tooltip.AddTool(this, IDS_STRING1, &rect, ID_LISTBOX);
tooltip.Activate(TRUE);
tooltip.SetDelayTime(1);
However, when I move the mouse over the list box, no tool tip comes up.
Any suggestions would appreciated.
Thanks.
Martin

The reason is most likely because your tooltip object is being constructed on the stack, right inside your function, and then it goes away as soon as the function exits. Two suggestions:
1. Make the tooltip object a member of the class, instead of a local variable.
OR
2. If your function is only called ONCE in the entire program, make your tooltip object static so that it doesn't go away (until the program exits):
static CToolTipCtrl tooltip;
I don't know if the rest of the code is fine, but you can start with this.

Alvaro

I think Alvaro is right!!!
This cud be the reason. If the problem still persists, use the 2 parameter form of AddTool(...). Dont the specify the CRect. Once you specify the CRect attribute, then the tooltip is binded to that rectangle.

Hi guys,
I want to implement in C++ an octree data structure. This should look like a binary tree data structure, however instead of having 2 children, every node should have 8.
Does any of you has this thing already implemented and can pass on to me the source code? Or do you know somebody that can help with writing my source code?
Thanks a lot,
|

I haven't written a binary tree since undergraduate school so here is a high-level overview of what might be required:
struct Node
{
Node *p1;
Node *p2;
Node *p3;
Node *p4;
Node *p5;
Node *p6;
Node *p7;
Node *p8;
} *pRoot = NULL;
void _Add( Node *pNode, Datum *pDatum )
{
if (NULL == pNode)
{
pNode = new Node;
pNode->p1 = NULL;
pNode->p2 = NULL;
...
}
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p1, pDatum);
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p2, pDatum);
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p3, pDatum);
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p4, pDatum);
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p5, pDatum);
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p6, pDatum);
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p7, pDatum);
else if (...)
_Add(pNode->p8, pDatum);
else
assert(FALSE);
}
void Add( Datum *pDatum )
{
_Add(pRoot, pDatum);
}

Excuse me, but is your code somehow better than the following?
struct Node { Node * children[8]; } *pRoot = 0;
void _Add( Node *pNode, Datum* pDatum )
{
if ( 0 == pNode )
{
pNode = new Node;
memset( pNode->children, 8*sizeof(Node*) );
return;
}
if (...) { _Add(pNode->children[0], pDatum); return; }
}

I'm trying to open my About dialog from a menu item, but it does not seem to work. I've tried putting the about dialog id in the menu about id field, that didn't work. I've tried making an event handler but that doesn't even go to the fuction that was created (I put in a messagebox to pop up when it called that function).So how do I do this?
Thanks for any help
