Thanks Dave but have MS taken the component gallery away? If so, why?
|
|
|
|

I have no idea what that is. The link I provided is a gallery of components. Just look through there to find one that will suit you.

Not from the component gallery, but have you seen this?

Hello guys,
I have a TLB file and it's interface description in Delphi.
But I want to create a C++ project that uses the interfaces exported by that Program.
I extracted the TLB file from the executable and now I want to ask if there is a way to convert this TLB file to an IDL file.
Any ideas?
Don't try it, just do it!

You can use the #import directive to generate ATL wrapper classes for the tlb file.

Yes, run the MS OLEViewer app (Start>>Run>>oleview.exe). From there, use File>>View Typelib. In the type library view, just use File>>Save As to save it as IDL.

Thank you guys, both of you

By default there are 8x6 colors for choosing. How to make it more?
This is the need of the customers, they would like the program be easy
to use.
If it is not easy, I'd like to make one myself, but I can't decide how to choose and put colors so that it can look a little good.

And using more than 48 colors makes the program easy to use? Wow, are they brain dead?

Especially since it lets the user pick one of 2^24 colors

Pretty vague question
Are you referring to the "color dialog box" common dialog?
If so, then like any other dialog, if you need additional
functionality you can write your own.

Yes.
The number of basic colors seems not changable.
I think I should implement one.

There are 48 basic colors, but there are 2563 total colors.

Sure.
The key is when the customer is choosing a color for background,
a set of well-selected colors may be better than all here.
|

Heh yeah, but if you put 1000 basic colors, I bet you still won't
have my favorite blue.
How do you decide how many is enough?

"Yeah"? You understood that? Can you translate it for me?

Hi,
I am trying to read a webpage, but to view the webpage PostData must be sent to the server. How do you do that? The PostData is long (ASP.Net, so includes the __VIEWSTATE). I just dont know how to send a post back to the server. I am sure its simple, but I have searched and cant find anthing. Please help me, I have been stuck on this for weeks.
Thanks, Mike

Lucky the code machine wrote: I am sure its simple
Really? It is?
Do you know how to perform an HTTP POST request?
Do you know what the POST data requirements are for the page?
Do you know how to form __VIEWSTATE data?
Do you know if the site requires a session cookie? If it does do you know how to manage the cookie?
Try reading the first thread in the forum "How to get an answer to your question". Pay attention to Item #2.

No, this is what I need to know.
led mike wrote: Do you know what the POST data requirements are for the page?
Yes. I have monitored an IE session and trapped the outgoing HTTP post.
led mike wrote: Do you know how to form __VIEWSTATE data?
Yes, the viewstate will not change, so I will be sending it back as the server sent it out.
led mike wrote: Do you know if the site requires a session cookie? If it does do you know how to manage the cookie?
It does not require a session cookie.
So, to be more specific with my question:
How do I perform a HTTP POST request in C++?

There are a number of classes (MFC WinInet library / Socket classes) and/or API's (WinInet API) all the way down to just using the Winsock API.
Of course all of these classes and API's are well documented on the MSDN Web site.
When using any of these solutions knowledge of the HTTP protocol[^] could prove valuable, but that's up to you.
