It's not AfxGetApp() that's slow (trace into it and see), but doing thousands of registry calls is. The registry is a database, and access won't be lightning-quick. As Nish said, read your config into variables at startup, then save it on exit.

Is it possible to copy a parent image and have its children appear in different locations to the parent?
I'm trying to create a side on scrolling shoot-em up and I want to be able to fire five (5) bullets at one time but I don't want to have to write the code 5 times...
GetBulletStartPoint[1];
SetBulletVisible[1];
If(Bullet = OffScreen) AllowNewBullet[1];
etc etc...
Hope this makes sense I can compile what I'e made so far and post on my site if that will help...

No - you will need to draw them all yourself, you can't make a single image redraw itself automagically.
You should be writing it five times though, you should use an array ( maybe as a list ) of Bullet objects and a loop.

Hey all.
I want to be able to display tooltips text in a different codepage from the system's current default codepage (in a non-Unicode OS, such as Windows 98, Windows ME, etc.)
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hey, Im having some trouble with capturing some events in Outlook. I was wondering if anyone had, or could give me an example of how to overide an event such as the "open" event.
Right now I have this...
I derive my class from IDispSimpleEventImpl...
class ATL_NO_VTABLE CDaFun :
public IDispEventSimpleImpl<1,CDaFun,&__uuidof(Outlook::ItemEvents)>
typedef IDispEventSimpleImpl<1, CDaFun, &__uuidof(Outlook::ItemEvents)> ItmEvents;
Then setup a callback...
void __stdcall OnOpenItem(IDispatch* Ctrl, VARIANT_BOOL * CancelDefault);
and then the sinkmap...
SINK_ENTRY_EX(1,__uuidof(Outlook::ItemEvents),0xf003,OnOpenItem)
Now Advising im not sure about. Try to get a pointer to the interface i need. Im not sure if Inspectors is right...
CComQIPtr <outlook::_application> spApp(Application);
CComQIPtr <outlook::_inspectors> spInsp;
spInsp = spApp->Inspectors;
ItmEvents::DispEventAdvise((IDispatch*)spInsp,&__uuido(Outlook::ItemEvents));
The advise fails, so im not how to set that up right. Please help
THanks

I have an ISAPI extension that runs another app when it is finished. This other app needs to have write access to a directory.
How can I run this process as another user?
I have tried CreateProcessWithLogonW but got a link error. I assumed it was because I was not building in unicode. Unfortunately, I don't have a unicode build configuration so forget that.
Is there a way to tell IIS to run a dll as a certain user?

There is the CreateProcessAsUser() API. I haven't used it a lot though - you need to get a security token for the user and pass it in.
Although I might soon try to do just this - have an EXE or a DLL that launches another EXE as a different user. I suppose if you could get that to work directly, you could always have IIS launch a DLL which launches an EXE to run as a different user. 
As for launching a DLL as another user - is that possible? Since a DLL will technically run in the memory space of the executable that calls it, so they are essentially one program - but I'm somewhat ignorant in this regard.
Even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat.

You have to call LogonUser before calling CreateProcAsUser. Not sure I want it to load the profile etc.
Thanks for the reply.

That's XP feature where windows with the same title text get stacked [I think only the first few characters are compared though]

You mean, they minimize to an icon on the desktop, instead of to the taskbar?

But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

Hello! I'm trying, by code, to insert the '\n' or 0x0D or chr(13) into a EditBox to format the data comingo from a Database.
Anyone have a clue on how to do this?
Thank you for your time!
|
|
|
|
|
Try \n\r that should do it!
Papa
Murex Co.

there are a few ways. the easiest is to add the "\r\n" to the data then do a SetWindowText to add all the data at once. (you need the '\r', or the edit box will draw a little square for the '\n').
CString inData;
inData = from database
inData+="\r\n";
myEdit.SetWindowText(inData);
-c
Cheap oil. It's worth it!

|
|
|

sData = ...
sData += "\n";
m_cEdit.SetWindowText(sData);

Chris was rigth, i must insert "\r\n", to make the line feed. Thank you all!

Hi,
I have window A (which might be a dialog or a SDI) and window B which is a dialog. Window A creates window B modally.
I wanna have a button on window B which closes both window B and window A regardless of whether it is dialog or SDI but I dunno how.
Thanks for your help.
R.

U can do it several ways, but guess the simplest object oriented way would be to pass a pointer of the dialog A to the dialog B, and all the button would have to do is to call:
OnOK();
m_pointerToDialogA->OnOK();

Hi, im used to doing gfx programming with DX or OGL but now I have to do some stuff in GDI. Im currently having a tearing problem in GDI. Normally in DirectDraw I would use the function to wait for the vertical refresh ( vsync ) but in GDI I don't know what to do... Is there a similar function in the Win32 SDK ?
Thank you for any help you can provide.

I dont think MS has a provision for vsync in windows gdi... which really sucks.
