To use ofstream the way you specified:

char name[20] = {0};
ofstream fout;
fout.open("mylog.log", ios::app);	// create the file if it doesn't exist, append to it if it does
cin >> name;
fout << name;
// whatever else you want to do
fout.close();	// when you are done with it

You can create .cpp file without workspace. But as mentioned earlier, thats not what you required.

if you use VisualC++ (whatever vesion), you must create a workspace (or a solution, both appelations are same depending on the IDE). otherwise, you'll have to use the command line to call the compiler/linker yourself, but i don't advise you to, because if you are new, yo go directly to the headaches !!

creating a new project is not a that difficult task. take few minutes to experiment the IDE.

Well you can create such a file simple by choosing New/File in the File menu, but i don't think thats what you want. It really depends on what kind of Application/Library etc. you want to create. The simplest i think is to create a new Project from the Win32 Console Application Template. Just use File/New/Project, then choose Win32 Console Application under Visual C++ Projects and enter a project name, then hit ok. Next window hit OK again, default options should suffice for now. In your project explorer (usually on the right side) you will find a .cpp file with the name of your project. This file contains an empty body of the main function. You can write your code here. Then hit Strg+F5 to execute.

So much for a short total beginners tutorial. Hope that was helpfull and not too low Wink | ;)

Hi all,

I want to change the font of a control, specifically CListView control, I know how to create a font, and how to select it into a device context, lets assume that my font is ready to use (MyFont), in what dc should I select it???

I have tried:
MyListView.GetDC()->SelectObject(&MyFont);
and
MyListView.GetListCtrl().GetDC()->SelectObject(&MyFont);

and neither of them works!!! so whats the problem?????????

And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation

Have you tried the SetFont() method?

Modeless dialog always remanins in foreground?

pc_dev14-Sep-06 2:25

I am working on SDI application that creates a modeless dialog, the problem is that modeless dialog always remains in foreground, even if i click on the title bar of the sdi frame. I have set style of sdi frame window to WS_EX_TOPMOST but it donot works for modeless dialog. How can i bring modeless dialog to the back of Z order, SetWindowPosition also do not work. It looks that windows always puts modeless dialog in forground of main window. how this default behaviour can be changed.

Create the dialog as child of the desktop (GetDesktopWindow()) instead of the main application window ...

Thanks

Does anyone know where the tab order of the controls placed on a Dialog Box is stored? I want to change this by hand 'cause visually it'g getting kindoff hard Frown | :(

Re: Dialog Box, Tab order

toxcct14-Sep-06 2:23

it is stored in the order in which the #includes of the controls ID are ordered in the resource.h

BTW, do you know that graphically, you are allowed to click on the order number as part of a control to select it ?

Nope. Their initial z-order is governed by the order in which they appear in the dialog's template (the .rc file).

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
