I get the same effect...all frames in the resultant avi file are the same frame of video (the first one captured)

Hi.
I'm trying to override CMDIChildWnd::OnCreateClient in a mdi child window.
In that window i have a splitter window and one of the views is a CTreeView.
If at the beginning of my OnCreateClient i call parents (CMDIChildWnd) OnCreateClient my inner splitter is fixed (can't be moved) and the tree control is uneditable (can't select items), if i remove call to parents OnCreateClient i can move the splitter and edit (select items) from tree control,
and if i call at the end of my OnCreateClient to parents - i get an empty child.
I've tried figuring out why each change causes what it does, but didn't make it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Ori.

I'm trying to get some code working that was available at another site. Having difficulty identifying how to pass values to the following function.
void WnWd_CreateHWDrv(CWnd* pWnd ,
WORD wHWCardNo ,
BYTE* lpImage,
BITMAPINFO* lpDIBHdr)
{
CWnDrv* pThread;
pThread = new CWnDrv(pWnd,
wHWCardNo,
lpImage ,
lpDIBHdr);
if (pThread == NULL) return;
ASSERT_VALID(pThread);
// Create Thread in a suspended state so we can set the Priority
// before it starts getting away from us
if (!pThread->CreateThread(CREATE_SUSPENDED))
{
delete pThread;
return;
}
// since everything is successful, add the thread to our list
m_threadList.AddTail(pThread);
}
Are these standard values obtained from windows somewhere, or do I have to give them from an MFC dialouge application ? If I have to give them, where do I get them from in windows? The wHWCardNo is straight forward enough, thats zero or '0'. Does anyone know what form or value this should take ?

I need an efficient way to determine the name of a function from within the function itself, or possible the parent function (what’s down one level on the stack). Any ideas?
This is for an error logging system. I want to provide a way to make a log entry that identifies where in the source code the error occurs. Something similar to __LINE__ __FILE__, but not so bloated, would be great.

Dunno about a way to tell the function name.
As far as identifying the file and line, one solution I've used is macros. In fact, it's probably the only solution. Something like this may do it:
#define RAISE_ERROR(description) \
do { \
CString strError; \
strError.Format("Error %s at %s(%d)", description, __FILE__, __LINE__); \
LogError(strError); \
throw CMyException(strError); \
} while (0)

Use the __FUNCTION__ macro in VS.NET
If you can keep you head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts you aim;
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it.

Andrew,
Thank you. I guess I will have to work on the move to VS.NET. Does the __FUNCTION__ macro return the class and function name? i.e. Box::GetSize() or just GetSize()?
Thank you,
Matt

Box::GetSize()

You can use the StackWalk function from dbgHelp
It's the only way I know, so I'm not sure if it's the most efficient.

Incredibly easy question, I know, but what's the function you use to convert a char * to the ascii characters that make up its contents?
|
|
|
|
|
|
a char* is an array, you can access each of it's element with the [] operator:
char* str;
str[0], str[1], etc...

Try this,
long ConvertToLong( char* szValue )
{
unsigned long *p = (unsigned long*)szValue;
long lFieldValue = *p;
return lFieldValue;
}

I have to parse file that contains (some times) character > 255, this is due to some problem with the device that writes the file.
Does anybody know how to handle this case with ifstream ?
Jonathan de Halleux.
|
|
|
|
|

The file is mixture of binary and text data. Normally, the device writes character < 255 but sometimes it screws up and write random bits which can be > 255:
Here's the kind of text I get:
1ŠÂ‚b¢ºb’šb¢‚R5,$
???

Are you referring to c-style (char* ) strings, CString , or std::string ?

Does anybody know how to get tape drive info?
Does MS provide tape API to control tape drive such as rewind etc.?
Thanx!

hi there,
i am writing a c++ program to make statistical analysis, which demands quite some memory (i'm using new to allocate an array and filling it with values)... whenever i need to allocate close to 200 mb the program and the computer gets really slow, taking forever just to allocate the memory... this happen when compilling on vc 6 and vc 7. when using dev c++ (mingw), the program just crashes while trying to allocate the memory... i am pretty much sure thats nothing to deal with memory leaks (all memory allocate is freed in the end), bad memory chips (i tested them using memtest) or insufficient memory (this pc runs with 2 gb of ram memory)... any suggestions on how to solve this??????

This sounds reasonable. Allocating that much requires a good deal of work by the memory manager, including lots of virtual disk activity.

Is this memory being allocated in lots of tiny chunks or as one big array?
In either case, the virtual memory manager will be working overtime to figure out how to arrange blocks and track them. If you have a whole bunch of tiny memory blocks, you might consider allocating a large pool of memory at the start of the day and writing your own allocator tuned to your requirements.

Well allocating 200M sounds like a really bad idea, and is going to take quite some time. I'd be trying to find better algorithm or implementation of your algorithm that doesn't need such vast amounts of memory, or acquires it only as needed.
There are also small memory block allocators around which will considerably improve performance if you are allocating lots of small blocks.

Well I would say for me 200MB is not a lot of memory. My program allocates almost 2GB which is the maximum allowed by the version of windows I am using. I do my allocations using VirtualAlloc(). I have almost 2GB of free memory and my allocations are instantaneous (take a few microseconds if you are counting). The first thing I would say is to check task manager to see if you have any free ram before you do the allocation. Are you using any third party memory products?? The ones that claim to give you more memory?? If so disable them and see what happens...
