DO i need to add scripting support
Given the varying nature of the additions I would add some simple scripting. However I do not think that you (your company) will get away with asking the client to do the changes.
Given that you do add scripting a decent technical person could do the appropriate work on site (or even remotely). This removes the illness from development building and testing a new release.
You will still be able to charge the customer for a technical consultancy day or 1/2 day. You could also add that sort of change to the maintenance agreement albeit a few free callouts per year.
Saying all that. These minor changes will eventually fizzle out. You will have to weight up the pros and cons of adding scripting and see if it is indeed beneficial.

That's a broad question. Do you want to know if images are the same ? If one appears within another ? If both have a similar histogram ? If they have similar shapes on them ?

This seems like a difficult subject. If you were to compare images on a bit / byte level they could look somewhat different, even though they visually look the same. I guess there are a lot of mathematics involved.
I don't know of any web sites though I suppose you could try google if you have not done so already.

Hello, I was wondering if there is anyway possible of creating a fancy File Edit menu, like Office 2003 using just regular Windows APIs and NO MFC! I personally do not like MFC, I don't like Microsoft, so I was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction with my problem

OK, then why create an Office-2003 like menu?
Seriously though, imho you're much better off using MFC. See this[^] article for a very helpful set of classes.

OK thanks, I have tried MFC many times but I still can not grasp it. I heard that microsoft doesn't even use MFC they just push it on other people. I have been doing C++ for more than 2 years, I have done 50+ projects but 0 MFC projects. I understand the object oriented concepts extremely well but half that crap code doesn't even look like C++. I want an alternative to MFC. Is there any?

What's your source? Whoever it is, they're dead wrong since the VC 6 IDE is an MFC app.
Anyhoo, I know MSDN has a sample that shows how to make a toolbar that looks/acts like a menu.

Thanks Michael you're a god I guess I will try MFC. I always though the Visual Studio IDE just used regular windows APIs. My Dad's friend that works for IBM, has a few friends at microsoft and that's who told me about Microsoft and MFC.

They didn't fire him for that ? :P
He may have been thinking of apps like Word, which predate MFC, and I believe continue not to use it. The reason is the cost of a rewrite, not any problem with MFC itself.

OK I have always assumed that. I might open up Word or Visual studio in a hex editor and take a look at what DLLs they are linked to 
Does anybody have any tutorials on MFC? I would appreciate it.

ok ok, very cocky now. I have read many a article here at codeproject and I can't really understand all the MFC headers and all those weird APIs. Everything in MFC is so sloppy and I thought it was designed so you can be more productive. Quite the contrary, you write endless lines of classes and macros and where does it getcha? Half of what I say is probably wrong and you all might contradict me but I just am not all that fond of much Microsoft stuff.

MFC is an attempt to OO Win32. It's not perfect, by any means. Your best bet is to work your way through some examples, and learn a bit at a time.
Ryan McDermott wrote:

You shouldn't have to write any macros. Macros are evil. I don't think you need to write endless classes either. Have you done any Win32 ? It's a lot more verbose.

Try wtl. Lots of templates in there though that you might not like the look of.
50+ projects in 2 years eh?
|
|
|
|

Yes 50+ I did mainly small apps like a Splash Screen class, a Remote administration server, basic FTP client. Anyway, I found an interesting book on MFC online that I will order.

Have you checked WTL? It is generally considered a good alternative to MFC. Much less crap, smaller binaries. There are also a lot of ready-to-use classes, including menu (check CP's wtl part)

Hey every one...
I have read and tested some stuff with "SetWindowText"
and when i use SetWindowText i can change the caption of my appelcation, but I think it is possible to change window's caption of other programs....
i am not sure if it is SetWindowText(hWnd,"My Text");
but i used it and it gave me an eroor... so any help?
thanks alot
I am still a beginner
|

Hi.
you can use
Findwindow(wndclass,wndtetxt) API function to retrive the
hwnd for any window, and then you can use
SetWindowText function.
.
if you need some help contact me on faroq_tam2004@yahoo
