You could have avoided all of this hassle by letting ClassWizard add the method for you. It would have updated both the .cpp and .h files.

Cab you confirm that the pos->flags &= ~SWP_SHOWWINDOW statement is actually executed? If not, is visible being changed to TRUE somewhere?

Do you have any calls to ShowWindow()?

MFC is something I have been told to avoid at all costs and just go and learn .Net, so my knowledge of MFC is quite limited.

It is not executing, I tried both:

void CHotKeyTestDlg::OnWindowPosChanging(WINDOWPOS * pos)
{
if(!visible)
{
pos->flags &= ~SWP_SHOWWINDOW;
MessageBox("This executed");
}
CDialog::OnWindowPosChanging(pos);
}

void CHotKeyTestDlg::OnWindowPosChanging(WINDOWPOS * pos)
{

pos->flags &= ~SWP_SHOWWINDOW;
MessageBox("This executed");

CDialog::OnWindowPosChanging(pos);
}

both didn't bring up the message box.
visible is always false for the entire length of the program, I haven't modified it anywhere and it isn't being modified by anything.

I have no calls to ShowWindow() at all.

You failed to add ON_WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING() to the dialog's message map. This is something that ClassWizard would have handled for you!

I added it manually and it worked.

I was looking thru the ClassWizard and unless I added in ON_WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING() manually it wouldn't have appeared....

For future reference how should I use ClassWizard todo something like this....

Thanks for your help.

Wrong again. ClassWizard has somehow been set to only show dialog-related messages. Click the Class Info tab and select Window in the Message filter: combobox. Back on the Message Maps tab, you should see WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING in the list of messages.

What is the problem with it ? Why don't you like it ?

Maybe you should try GDI+ ?

It appears you're trying to get someone to do your homework for you. You'll be doing yourself a disservice by not tackling the problem yourself.

Sorting and searching a CSV file

Sree_india7-Jul-05 0:55

Hi All,

I have an C++ application
The results obtained from this application are written into a CSV file.

Format of CSV file : Fixed length file with 5 fields. Key is an integer value which can be duplicated.

So for a particular key value, i can have more than one record.

Inorder to get the records for a particular key, i need to traverse the whole CSV file and get all the results.

One method that can be implemented is first sort the whole CSV file and then traverse all the records.
Is there any efficient method to do the same?

Thanks and Regards,
Sree

I would tend to iterate through the file once, and put all the values into a multimap, using a struct for the value. Then you can look up any key you like.

Call function via inline assembler

Hello,

i am currently trying to call a C++ function from inline assembler code. This works fine. But I habe a problem with getting the return value of the called function.

Here my code:

float func(float h)<br />
{<br />
   std::cout << h;<br />
   return 78.0f;<br />
}<br />
<br />
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])<br />
{<br />
   float par = 67.5f;<br />
   int adr = reinterpret_cast<int>(&func);<br />
   _asm<br />
   {<br />
      push par;   // Paramter pushen<br />
      call adr;   // Funktion aufrufen<br />
      add esp, 4; // Stackzeiger verschieben<br />
      mov par, eax;  // Returnwert aus eax Register in Variable<br />
   }<br />
<br />
   std::cout << par;<br />
   std::cin.get();<br />
   return 0;<br />
}<br />

Normally par should store 78.0f now. But that's not the case.
Somebody is seeing my fault?

Thanks
Georg

I haven't done a lot with floating point assembler but you have a push and no corresponding pop.

I have found the error now. The "mov" command is ok, but only for integers. If i'm using floats, i must use "fstp":

_asm<br />
	{<br />
		push par;   // Paramter pushen <br />
		call adr;   // Funktion aufrufen<br />
		add esp, 4; // Stackzeiger verschieben<br />
		fstp par;<br />

Hello all,
I have a simple DLL is built by VB like this:
Public Function SayStatement(sSta as String) as String
SayStatement = sSta
End Function

Now I don't know how to use that DLL in VC++ environment (I meant that a message will be showed up when user click a button that used SayStatement function).

Thank you very much.

If you mean an ActiveX DLL, then this is a COM dll. So you can use whatever your favoured C++ method for accessing COM objects.

I prefer #import as that generates a nice C++ wrapper, but you can use the old fashioned CoCreateInstance as well. Have a read on MSDN for more details.

User Breakpoint called from code

I am facing a problem with a small application that I have recently developed. The application runs well for a few days and at a moment there is an error message like “User Breakpoint called from code” … when I debug the application it stops at a line where in assembly the code looks like “int 3” . Anyone has any suggestion about how to track this in my code.

Thank you.

Try looking at the Call Stack (one of the tabs at the bottom in Visual Studio) to see where the current method/function is being called. You'll get a hint at which call went wrong.

There are many reasons behind this, I think this is due to the memory over usage. If you allocate N Bytes of memory but >N Bytes of memory is used and then you try to delete the memory it gives the same problem. Check in the code the memory should not be over used.

Are you debugging the DEBUG mode application or RELEASE mode Application.If you try to DEBUG MODE application, the debugger will point you actual line of fault.
