Where can i find source code for standard check box (CButton)?
Have you looked in the \Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC folder? There's a SRC and an INCLUDE folder that have the declaration and definition of the CButton class.

I know about MFC sources. There is CButton source code. But CButton simply uses CreateWindow() function to create check box. But i need source code for DrawItem() function.

Then you also know that you are expected to provide your own CButton::DrawItem() function as the base-class implementation does nothing except fire an assertion.

In other words, there is no source code available.

Ok the way i see it there are two ways you can go about creating a checkbox control.
1. You can use the the visual c++'s resource editor on a dialog box. If you choose to do so you will need see a tutorial on visual c++. this can be found on http://msdn.microsoft.com
2. The other way is to use mfc to do it heres a sample...
declare a checkbox control (actually its a special type of Button control)
CEdit myCheckBox;
go ahead and initialize it
myCheckBox.Create(LPCTSTR lpszCaption, DWORD dwStyle,
const RECT& rect, CWnd* pParentWnd, UINT nID);
now the dwStyle above must have at least the following flag "BS_AUTOCHECKBOX"
heres an example.
myCheckBox.Create("Search Any Word", WS_VISIBLE | BS_AUTOCHECKBOX,
CRect(365,0,470,30), this, IDC_CHECK1)
IDC_CHECK1 is the dialog control ID.
Hope this makes sence.
void signature(){
cout<<"Sobbayi Interactive"<

Oh, i need code to make my own drawn CheckBox, i want to override DrawItem() function.

Hi All,
hope u all r fine n doing well, i want to make a world map in VC++ (It may be a bitmap or gif),but the harder part is that i have to take the Longitude and Latitude by clicking on a certain position in the map, if anybody knows about this or related thing do tell me plzzzzz.
take care
 ;P

I have a cpp question that can not resolved... need some great help.
I have a base class, and some derived class (with various functions). I am trying to use a callback mechanism to have the base class to call one of the derived class function.
// ***************************
//
class BaseClass;
typedef int (BaseClass::*BaseCallback)( int );
class BaseClass
{
public:
BaseClass() {};
BaseCallback baseCB;
// error on below line:
// error C2171: '*' : illegal on operands of type 'BaseCallback'
// error C2064: term does not evaluate to a function
int runCallback( int i ) { return (*baseCB)(i); };
};
class DerivedClass : public BaseClass
{
public:
bool derivedCallback( int i ) { return i; };
DerivedClass() { baseCB = (BaseCallback) derivedCallback; };
};
//
// ***************************
everything seems to be good, except when the compiler does not like to call the function using the function pointer. This mechanism does work if it is not a class function pointer. Does anyone has any idea ?
thanks in advance

thanks for the hint
and i tried that, but still got an error (same line) about
// error C2064: term does not evaluate to a function
thanks again

You problem is that you are trying to store a pointer to a non-static function. You just can't.
There are ways around it though.
Imagine a class with a work thread function in it.
class CMyClass
{
virtual DWORD DoScan ();
static DWORD WINAPI DoScanStatic (LPVOID lpParameter);
... etc.
};
main ()
{
...
DWORD dwID;
HANDLE hThread;
hThread = ::CreateThread (NULL, 0, DoScan, this, CREATE_SUSPENDED, &dwID);
hThread = ::CreateThread (NULL, 0, DoScanStatic, this, CREATE_SUSPENDED, &dwID);
...
}
You can make your life simpler by renaming DoScanStatic to DoScan and using overloading.
eg.
virtual DWORD DoScan ();
static DWORD WINAPI DoScan (LPVOID lpParameter)
{
CMyClass *my = (CMyClass *) lpParameter;
ASSERT(my);
if (my == NULL)
return 0;
return my->DoScan ();
}
This way you can use a static callback, and make in inheritable via indirection.
Did that help?
Iain.

I know. But callbacks are. I used to use typedefs quite alot so I
didn't have to type struct every few minutes in the old C days.
I use it to have templated containers of templated thingys so my
brain doesn't get confused by the >> / > >s.
I probably should have changed the post title thought, to make it
more explicit that I was commenting on his callback setup.

I read your faq clickety in another post, and I retract my comments on callbacks a little, but you
still need to know the this the function goes with. But being able to choose between non-static
member functions (albeit with identical signatures) at runtime is quite cunning.

Sorry, but that's not correct. Of course it's possible to store (and use) pointers to non-static member functions.
For a look at syntax, see http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/pointers-to-members.html[^]

When I got the notification about your posting, I was initially
embarassed. I usually try not to generalise so much. But then
I read the faq you pointed me to, and it outlined the method
I used in the code below my bald statement.
I perhaps could have explained it better, but if you look at the
code it has a static function recieving a pointer turning the
pointer to an object one, and calling a non-static member function.
Members of the jury, I rest my case.
Iain.

I don't intend to appear stubborn, but when discussing the code you're referring to, the FAQ very clearly says it's "a patch". It's meant to be used in situations where you need to supply a plain-C callback function to the API, like in EnumChildWindows() or others.
In fact, the FAQ istelf poses the question as follows: "How do I pass a pointer-to-member-function to a signal handler, X event callback, system call that starts a thread/task, etc?" It's answer is a very direct one: "Don't"
Here's the precise link: http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/pointers-to-members.html#faq-33.2[^]
The issue with plain-C callback functions and the inability to (directly) use C++ member functions is well-described at MSDN in "Calling All Members: Member Functions as Callbacks" at http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/dnarvc/html/msdn_callb.asp[^] I agree that the technique is a good one for the situation described in the FAQ.
But it's not correct to say that you can't store (and use) a pointer to member functions.
It's also not correct to say that member functions can't be used in ways very similar to regular callbacks. Here's one example from MSDN, entitled "Pointers to Member Functions and Templates" at http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/dnarvc/html/msdn_callb.asp[^]
So, maybe the jury's still out .... 
Regards,
Mike

After Mike Dunns FAQ posting, I posted a mini-retractment. In a general windows callback (ie for
CreateThread etc) you have to use a static function. You can cast its void * parameter to the object
in question and call a "normal" member function, getting around the issue.
The mdsn_callb.asp page you pointed to also spells this out. It does include a lookup method which
may well work in circumstances. But it is still using a static as the callback, which then derives
an opbject pointer before calling the member function.
Mike Dunn did point out how to create a pointer to class member function pointer which was a new one
to me. This is a new one on me, and I can see it being very useful. But you now need to store two
pointers. Which object, and which member of that object! You can get around it, but not without non-
trivial bookkeeping. So I would consider it too much hard work, and too prone to mistakes for use as
a windows callback function.
So, to misquote myself:
"... You can't. But you can cheat, and get around the problem!".
In my experience, there's never a hard and fast CAN'T. But there is a "way too much like hard work when
much easier, simpler and safer ways exist". 
In next weeks episode, "How many angels can line-dance on the side of a pin".

Thanks Michael, this solved my issue.
i mixed up the usage on "pointer-to-function" and "pointer-to-member"

hi,
where to find unicows.lib for download?
thanks

Grab a recent platform SDK (contains DLL and lib file), or google for it.
Your sincerity about keeping the soapbox organized and civilized is so obvious. I solute your effort.

Is there a limit on the size a key value or registry tree can have? If so, what is the maximum? To be more precise, I would like to know which key type to use (REG_DWORD, REG_SZ, etc.) to store large binary values, say more than 20 MB in size.
|
|
|
|

No, do not use the registry to store that much data. Use a data file in the user's Application Data dir. In 9x a single value has a limit - either 32K or 64K, I forget which. In NT the size of the entire registry has a limit, which defaults to something less than 20 MB.
