Hi All,

i have one question related with CRichEditCtrl.
How can we identify the word underlying he mouse pointer?
means if i have some text in richedit.

1) programming window's is not easy.
2) Subclassing is tec*hnique by which you can process the messages
before the controll processes it.

* word is where mouse pointer is.
i want to get that word means i need to get the technique word when
mouse pointer is on it!!

how can i achieve this?
any help will be appreciated

Thanks and Regards
Harshal

You will have to subclass the CRichEditCtrl.
Here is what I did in the MouseMove message. Just a crude idea on how you could proceed with this.
int i=CharFromPos(point);
SetSel (i,i+3);
char *mySel=new char[100];
GetSelText (mySel);
AfxMessageBox(mySel);
delete[] mySel;

Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

int i = SendMessage(EM_CHARFROMPOS,0,LPARAM(&point));
SetSel (i,i+3);
char *mySel=new char[100];
GetSelText (mySel);
//AfxMessageBox(mySel);
delete[] mySel;

this is working fine
actually in sendmessage LPARAM requires the address of point structure

Thanks now i can proceed

i will give you class definition

{
// Construction
public:

// Attributes

// Operations
public:

// Overrides
// ClassWizard generated virtual function overrides
//{{AFX_VIRTUAL(CMyRichEdit)

// Implementation
public:
virtual ~CMyRichEdit();

// Generated message map functions

//{{AFX_MSG(CMyRichEdit)
afx_msg void OnVScroll(UINT nSBCode, UINT nPos, CScrollBar* pScrollBar);
afx_msg void OnKeyDown(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags);
afx_msg BOOL OnMouseWheel(UINT nFlags, short zDelta, CPoint pt);
afx_msg void OnChar(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags);
afx_msg void OnKeyUp(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags);
afx_msg void OnChange();
afx_msg void OnMouseMove(UINT nFlags, CPoint point);
//}}AFX_MSG

DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
};

void CMyRichEdit::OnMouseMove(UINT nFlags, CPoint point)
{
//int i=CharFromPos(point);// gives error
int i = SendMessage(EM_CHARFROMPOS,0,MAKELPARAM(point.x,point.y));
SetSel (i,i+3);
char *mySel=new char[100];
GetSelText (mySel);
AfxMessageBox(mySel);
delete[] mySel;
CRichEditCtrl::OnMouseMove(nFlags, point);
}

both fails

IMHO,
When we have do this on .NET platform(VC7.0) we use the RichEditControl2.0 and when using VS6.0 RichEditControl.
CharFromPos() is defined for RichEditControl2.0 and not for RichEditControl.

Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

Hi,
I need to write the program that can streaming the frame buffers over network and play again when received at client program.

in Java we hav RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) for doing real time streaming and JMF for playing.

But in C++ I don't know how we do a real time streaming video.

Please help me!

Thank in advance!

You can use RTP in C++ although you will have to write it yourself or find a free or open source library to do it for you.

Use GetSystemTime(..) as below,

SYSTEMTIME SytemTime;
GetSystemTime(&SystemTime);
SystemTime.wDayOfWeek will slovw your problem...

There's a plethora of ways:

struct tm now;<br />
localtime( &now );<br />
look at now.tm_wday

SYSTEMTIME st;<br />
GetSystemTime( &st );<br />
look at st.wDayOfWeek

To name a few.

Did you create a COM object? or a regular DLL ?

Also, are you trying to register it on a 32-bit processor ?
