Hello
Thank you very much. Although, I usually do not post thank you messages too often, since it wastes the other persons' time, I feel I can make an exception here.
Please look out, since I have a lot of questions.
Each will have its own thread, since people can read and learn without asking again.
Regards

I want to change the cursor to an Hourglass while my program is busy. I thought this would be simple but I cannot find it my books, in the help or on CP, maybe I'm searching for the wrong thing!
Anyway, can anyone tell me how to do it or where to look.
Cheers,
Ali

BeginWaitCursor(), to change to hourglass
then EndWaitCursor() when done.

Excellent, thank you very much. I thought it should be simple, just couldn't find it.
Thanks again,

Either the Begin..End functions given in the other post, or my personal favourite (if you're using MFC, that is) - add a CWaitCursor object to your functions's variables like so
void CMyClass::DoSomethingThatTakesAges()
{
CWaitCursor xWait;
.. do whatever processing you want here as per usual..
}
Whilst the CWaitCursor object lives, it'll make your mouse pointer into an hourglass, so you can easily drop these as the first line of any function that does any kind of long period of processing (and they can stack quite happily - the mouse stays as an hourglass as long as there is at least one CWaitCursor object alive)

That's neat, and it will fit nicely into my code. Thanks for the tip .

Hi,
I will be opening an url through Shellexecute() command.
ShellExecute(hwnd,0,szCommand,0,0,SW_NORMAL);
If my szCommand="file:///f:/mypage.htm#my_cursor"
then it opens mypage.htm but it never points to my_cursor paragraph.
But if i open explorer & copy the above text,it points to particular paragraph.
How can achive this with shellexecute() command?
Thanks

Hi
Try using CreateProcess with the name of the application (here it is IE) with a switch style parameter like:
<br />
Iexplore.exe /file:
I am not sure abt this, but you can tweak it a little here and there.

i'm writing a context menu extension that creates a file in the currently visible folder. i'd like to force explorer to select that file and scroll it to be visible, or even better, scroll it to be visible and start the filename editing process.
i've looked everywhere i can think of, but found nothing.
has anyone done this?

Not sure if this does it, but maybe.
You could try calling IShellBrowser::BrowseObject() with
SBSP_SAMEBROWSER and the pidl to your newly created file.
I *think* thou can get the IShellBrowser with SHGetInstanceExplorer().
If you want to edit you must somehow get hold of the IShellView
and call SelectItem() on it.
I belive there is an undocumented msg you can send to the explorers
mainwindow to get the IShellView.
..but forgotten what it was.
WM_USER + 7...maybe..
IShellBrowser::QueryActiveShellView() should do the trick

1. I drawed my BITMAP in primary surface and I would like to know the command using in clear surface.
2. I would like to know the surface using method more than two surface(I require the example).

You can BitBlt using BLACKNESS as the method ( instead of SRCCOPY ) or WHITENESS if you prefer.

Hello
I want to update menu when user select an other language.
I call "ModifyMenu" then "UpdateWindow" but changes are done only when mouse is going over the text.
Is anybody can help me?
|
|
|
|
|
You may want to try using RedrawWindow instead. You could also try using the UPDATE_COMMAND_UI which is called continuously when the menu is displayed.
Hope that helps

The first thing that comes to mind wrt communication between programs written by different languages is a DLL
( or maybe COM ). You could have your DLL, written in VC++ that your VB program can use in its program.
If the (VB) program is already build, I guess you could always try and subclass the window (form) and directly
draw on the surface.
Post more info on these programs. Are they in development, or are they already build and cannot be changed? Why VB and VC++, can you not convert one to the other?
I'm sure if its possible then someone outthere will post a reply

I am writing a simple console application with MFC support in order to connect to Database using ADO. But having problems in the initial stages.
The main program looks something like this:
int _tmain(int argc, TCHAR* argv[], TCHAR* envp[])
{
_ConnectionPtr m_pConnection;
HRESULT hr;
if(!AfxOleInit())
{
printf("\n COM initialization failed");
}
hr = m_pConnection.CreateInstance( __uuidof( Connection ) );
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
printf("\n createInstance successful");
else
printf("CreateInstance unsuccessful");
The problem is that CreateInstance is failing. Please tell me the problem if you find out.
Oh yea, i added following lines in StdAfx.h:
include <comdef.h>
#import "C:\program files\common files\system\ado\msado15.dll" \
no_namespace \
rename( "EOF", "adoEOF" )

You need to initialise the COM library by calling ::CoInitialize()
eg:
if( FAILED(::CoInitialize(NULL)) )
{
AfxMessageBox(IDS_ERROR_COM_INITIALISE, MB_OK | MB_ICONEXCLAMATION);
return FALSE;
}

Hi .. i have a problem with vc++ ... i have made a mfc wizard mdi aplication and i've added a new class Info .. now i want to delcare a global instance of this class but i don't know were to put it exactly ... i put it in the app but error ... i have made a bew file adn included it in the project but error of memory or something like that .. please help me ... and excuse my bad english

You can add a member object of the class to your CWinApp derived class. Now you can use AfxGetApp() to get a pointer to your CWinApp derived object. Cast this to your actual derived class and use the member object directly. This way you can avoid using a global.

Does anybody know if you can have nested CLists. Ive tried putting a CList into a struct and then making a CList of that struct but it gave out a whole lot of errors.
Cheers
Dor

First the obligatory disclaimer - CList is garbage. Use std::list instead.
What you may have is something like this:
list<list<int>> mylist;
which looks like a list of lists of ints, but instead you have the two >> symbols next to each other, which the compiler interprets as a shift operator. If that is your probilem, just insert a space.
