Re: how to get the current window system language name?

Look at the GetLocaleInfo() function, specifying either LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT or LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT for the first parameter.

Man, I wish I had heard about that function a year ago. Good job Ryan! Your replies never cease to amaze me. I truly learn a lot from your posts.

CListCtrl can we get a handle to the icon associated to the text

Can we get a handle or icon id of an item which has been inserted in to a ListCtrl?

Example: if we have two icons in our image list and we inserted 100 items in the list can we find out if item 30 has icon #1 displayed with it or icon #2 displayed with it

P.S we are assuming that a image list has been associated to the control.

How to disable the "Esc" key

30-Jun-03 19:07

If you're using MFC, do this:

LVITEM lvi;
lvi.mask = LVIF_IMAGE;
lvi.iItem = nItemIndex;  // The index of the item to get the image of
m_listCtrl.GetItem(&lvi);
// lvi.iImage will be the index of the image, starting from 0

If you're not using MFC, do it this way:

LVITEM lvi;
lvi.mask = LVIF_IMAGE;
lvi.iItem = nItemIndex;  // The index of the item to get the image of
SendMessage(hwndListCtrl, LVM_GETITEM, 0, (LPARAM)&lvi);
// lvi.iImage will be the index of the image, starting from 0

Hope this helps,

Ryan

I create a dialog.
And it is not expected to be closed when pressing the "Esc" key.
How to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance

Try to override CDialog::OnCancel().
Something like
void CMyDialog::OnCancel() { return;}

It works well after I do as your directions.

I am glad that it works well. I would also consider kmaz's directions as well even though I have never tried (or for that matter of fact heard that approach [then again, I have a lot to learn]). But it sounds very interesting and probably is worth to try it.

It seems very difficult
If by overriding the function, I want to do like below:
bool m_bEsc;
void CAbc::OnCancel()
{
if( !m_bEsc)
return;
else
CDialog::OnCancel();
}
bool A()//Some operations to keybord's actions
{
....
}

Do you think that can work well?

}

I don't see a reason why that would not work. Somebody else correct me please if I am wrong. But you have to try it yourself.

I would create an accelorator, which would disable the esc key and let you give other key combos functions.

FlyingDancer30-Jun-03 18:12

30-Jun-03 18:12

I am sorry
I don't understand "and let you give other key combos functions"
What's that meaning?
Can you tell me?

He means that using an accelerator, you can make other key-combinations perform other operations, as well as preventing the dialog from closing. However, Toni78's solution is the best and easiest one.
