You're welcome  Which book are you learning from?
I'm learning C# right now - with Tom Archers Inside C# 2nd edition as my guide. Great textbook so far but I didn't fully understand his description of assemblies, manifests et al in chapter 1. No matter - I'll go back and reread that part again and again, on the assumption that I've missed something, when I need to know it.
No textbook will be perfect - the author will always make some assumption somewhere that something is so obvious that it needs no explanation. In this case I suspect it was that the constants are named FILE_ATTRIBUTE_??? and the author assumed no one would imagine they were discrete constants.

Practical Visual C++ 6, by Bates and Tompkins. It's quite good, actually, and as I mentioned, the intent of the program was to illustrate how to fill up various controls, not to enumerate all the files in a directory. I was just thinking ahead a bit. I'm looking forward to reading Tom's book, but there's no rush as no one around here is using C# yet.

Your conclusion is correct, that dwFileAttributes is a set of bit flags.
This is just of the top of my head.
if( !(dataFind.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) )
{
}
else
{
}
if( dataFind.dwFileAttributes & (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE | FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL) )
{
}

Off the top of your head that's quite reasonable - I understand the intent, despite the typo. Rob came up with much the same conclusion (see above). Thank you for your guidance - C++ is fairly new to me, but I'm finding that it's not really as bad as I'd expected.

You are welcome! I was wondering where that curley brace went to, but it is not a typo since it ended up as part of the comment. By the way, C++ is derived from C and what you are seeing is actualy C code (since no classes are invalved).
Have a great night, day, or whaterver!

y'know I had to stare at the code John posted quite a long time before I saw the typo Here I was scratching my head and wondering what Roger was on (and if I could have some ) before finally seeing that errant brace.

It was a little more than the curly brace:
if( !(dataFind.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) )
{ // should be a file directory}
else
{ // should be a file}}

I run an application(e.g. Test.exe) in Debug or Release mode,
without manifest file, the applcation will good.
But, I met a GDI Objects leak issue,
when I run the application with
a manifest file(e.g. Test.exe.manifest).
the follow is in the manifest file:
<br />
<dependency><br />
<dependentAssembly><br />
<assemblyIdentity<br />
type="win32"<br />
name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"<br />
version="6.0.0.0"<br />
publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df"<br />
language="*"<br />
processorArchitecture="x86"<br />
/><br />
</dependentAssembly><br />
</dependency><br />
The leak will not issue, when I remove the codes from the manifest file,
or, the leak will not issue , I rename the application name(e.g. ATest.exe).
The GDI Objects leak due to manifest file?
Who can give me some comments, thanks in advance!

I have no idea, but the manifest from Microsoft doe not cause this problem:
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestversion="1.0">
<assemblyidentity
="" version="1.0.0.0" processorarchitecture="X86" name="CompanyName.ProductName.YourApp" type="win32">
<description>Your application description here.
<dependency>
<dependentassembly>
<assemblyidentity
="" type="win32" name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" version="6.0.0.0" processorarchitecture="X86" publickeytoken="6595b64144ccf1df" language="*">

Why doesn't VC++ recognize:
#include <string>
I see this in all the books that I am reading, but when I use it...I get:
'string': undeclared identifier
on the line where I try to declare my strings.
Incidentally, Bloodshed's C++ compiler (Dev-C++ 4.9.8.0) doesn't recognize it either.
I also tried
#include <string.h>
#include<string>
#include<string.h>
and every other configuration I could think of, include using "" around 'string'
I now this is incredibally dumb...but there it is.
thanks!

You figured out how to use namespace std then ?
For future reference, you need to check 'Do not treat <'s as HTML tags' when posting stuff that uses < >.

Odds are it means you passed an invalid pointer to something.
My immediate guess is that you have are using a dialog ID for which there is no control.

Ok here is a little history how i started getting errors.
I made some child dialogs boxes . After that attached them to the Parent Dialog Box. Everything is working fine. Then i added the control variables on the dialog boxes which are Check Boxes and Edit boxes only.
Now i am intialising them in the
DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
Constructor.
e.g. setting control m_variable1 = 0.5
and so on.
After doing so it gives me error.
Any more suggestions.
Thankks for answering though.

Just check the variables and step through the code. Make sure everything is being initialized properly and in the right order. Make sure you aren't using any of the controls before they are created.
Good luck.

You may have passed an invalid pointer or you may be over writting memory in an earlier function call. The last time I saw this error I had to back track until I found a miscalulated value that was causing an over write. This error normaly appears after the cause of the error (some times long afer).

Hi,
In my sdi application I have 2 tree views selectable by tabs. If I minimize and maximize the application the tree view looks grayed, only the selected node being visible. Can anyone tell me why and how to fix this?
|
|
|
|
|
There can be a range of issues here. Here are some things you can try:
One, make sure when one is made visible, the other is made invisible.
Two, the tab or the dialog may be drawing it's background on top of the tree controls. Try setting the tab or dialogs properties to clip children.
Three, detect the WM_ACTIVATE and do a RedrawWindow on the visible tree.
