Re: QUESTION about bitwise shift operations va_dev23-Oct-03 4:53 va_dev 23-Oct-03 4:53  Ok, You show how to shift the buffer on one byte ( 8 bits) to the right. I need to get shifted the whole buffer ( byte *buffer = new byte[16] ) on one BIT to the right. That's the question. Thanks Slava Archibasov 3admin@rambler.ru Re: QUESTION about bitwise shift operations David Crow23-Oct-03 6:49 David Crow 23-Oct-03 6:49  I need to get shifted the whole buffer... Look closer. All five bytes (the third parameter to memcpy()) of the buffer were shifted to the right. ...one BIT to the right. Which bit of which byte are you interested in? The buffer is comprised of several bytes (16 in my example), each of which has 8 bits. Five birds are sitting on a fence. Three of them decide to fly off.

Thanks. Re: Use of the Keyboard's events G. Steudtel22-Oct-03 5:22 G. Steudtel 22-Oct-03 5:22  Hi, for this edit box you have to catch the WM_GETDLGCODE message, telling it that you want DLGC_WANTALLKEYS. In your WM_KEYUP handler you must look if the user pressed the enter key and than act accordingly. In any other case you should do the default action. Regards G. Steudtel How do you remove focus from a listbox manually? Kelly R22-Oct-03 4:31 Kelly R 22-Oct-03 4:31  Hello, This is my problem: I have a list box which is used to select a certain item via double-click. This item can then be placed on a map. The problem is, while placing the item, the mousewheel has functionality within the program other than scrolling the list box. I need this mousewheel functionality to work, but once the item in the list box is selected, the focus stays on the list box and the mousewheel will only scroll the list and not do what I want it to do within the main program window. If I could just move the focus from the list box to some other button, or remove it entirely, (without actually clicking on another list or button) the problem should be solved. I have tried: SendMessage(list_box,LBN_KILLFOCUS,0,0); SendMessage(list_box,WM_KILLFOCUS,0,0); where list_box is the handle of my list box, but, both of those KILLFOCUS messages are returns rather than messages that can be sent to the handle and processed. I just need some way to get the focus off of the darned list box... Thanks for your help, Kelly Re: How do you remove focus from a listbox manually? includeh1022-Oct-03 4:42 includeh10 22-Oct-03 4:42  i was in your case before. i did lots test, result is: no way to do that. my solution is: create a Static control (Static has no focus on), then draw strings on the control - it is quite hard because you need to draw scroll-bar also. when user click the static control, you know which string is selected, then do something according to the string. but, maybe someone knows easy solution, i hope see it via your post. includeh10 Re: How do you remove focus from a listbox manually? G. Steudtel22-Oct-03 5:08 G. Steudtel 22-Oct-03 5:08  Hi, I once had a similiar problem within a tree control. My solution was to make a boolean variable (bDoubleClicked) which was initially set to false. When the user double clicked an item I just set this variable to true and remembered what he/she choosed. My actual action was taken on the mouse button up message. By looking if the user had double clicked I performed the task. In any case bDoubleClicked was set to false again. The problem was that the mouse action was bound to the tree control and not released until the button up message arrived to that control. I think you should use this method for your problem too. Hope this helps. Regards G. Steudtel Re: How do you remove focus from a listbox manually? Kelly R22-Oct-03 5:17 Kelly R 22-Oct-03 5:17  Thank you for the suggestion, but I think it probably won't work - the problem is, once the mouse clicks onto the list box, that's it, the focus is now on the list box. I need some way to remove the focus from the list box. Regardless of what variables I use to save position and such, once the mouse clicks even once on the list box, that's it, problem activated. I'd really rather not manually write a list box, I've done that in other portions of the code that involve larger bitmaps and such and it's a pain to always keep track of where they are in relation to the larger window etc, if I'm going to do that I'll just throw in an extra button instead that you're forced to click in order to place the selected items, but that's such a hassle for the user.. I can't imagine that there isn't some way to simply send a message to a window to change or remove focus.. it seems like such a basic function? Thanks for the suggestions though guys, hopefully there is some way to do this.. Kelly Re: How do you remove focus from a listbox manually? David Crow22-Oct-03 5:13 David Crow 22-Oct-03 5:13  After the item in the listbox has been double-clicked, why can't you just call SetFocus() to set the focus on the "map" control?

Kelly R22-Oct-03 5:31 Kelly R 22-Oct-03 5:31  I didn't realize there was a SetFocus function - Thank you, that's exactly what I was asking, I just tried it and it works the way I want Re: How do you remove focus from a listbox manually? includeh1022-Oct-03 8:28 includeh10 22-Oct-03 8:28  if you have scroll-bar in listbox, i don't think things are so simple, especially need to manage keyboad-input. visual c++ prompt window (appears if type dot after an object) is an example which doesn't use normal listbox. includeh10 Re: How do you remove focus from a listbox manually?

It's been around since the days of DOS. It contains the internal commands such as CD, DIR, CLS, TIME. Executable files having a .COM extension are usually much smaller and faster than their .EXE counterparts, because of the single code and data segment. With the 16-bit compiler, you could create a .COM file by specifying the tiny memory model. Exe2bin and Debug could also produce them. http://physics.concordia.ca/~eddy/391/AppC.html http://www.du.edu/~etuttle/electron/elect59.htm Five birds are sitting on a fence.

Unfortunately I cant find any tutorial on how to send commands to the application(Tutorials in CodeProject just for "Console" control applications). I need to be able to send control commands to another Windows application. The other app can be controlled with just using the "F2, F3," keys etc,. Thanks in advance to anyone who has any ideas Re: Application to control another Windows App includeh1022-Oct-03 4:31 includeh10 22-Oct-03 4:31  through pipe. see parameters of CreateProcess() function, you can find standard-handler inside, then use CreatePipe() function to establish communications between these handlers (pipe). includeh10 Re: Application to control another Windows App Member 18130723-Oct-03 2:32 Member 181307 23-Oct-03 2:32  Thanks for the answer. I have now created an application that utilises the createpipe() function. The application that I am trying to control only uses function keys(F2,F3, etc..). I have tried using Virtual Key Codes (VK_F2, VK_ENTER, etc,..), however this does not seem to have any effect on the application that I am trying to control. Again, does anybody have any ideas? Thanks again in advance.
