Printing problem for GDI+ in HIMETRIC mode

Md. Ali Naser Khan24-Jul-07 0:03

24-Jul-07 0:03

I've draw a spline in a view whose DC is in Himetric mode using GDI+.No problem is here. But when I print this same spline, it is not placed at proper location. I've observed that all points that are use for spline drawing, remain same and DC also is in HIMETRIC mode. What I have to do to solve the problem? Do I need to change the pointlist that construct the spline for printing? If so how can I do that?

Assuming you have the normal printing gotchas out of the way that are typical in GDI based applications, you need to ensure the GDI+ environment does not interfere with the GDI mapping routines if you are using those instead of the GDI+ transformations.

Jonathan de Halleux has some good tips about this general topic...
Tips on printing with GDI+[^]

Specifically, set

graphics.SetPageUnit(UnitPixel);

to prevent GDI+ interference in the mapping mode stuff.

Hope this helps

row = mysql_fetch_row(res);

i = (int) mysql_num_rows( res );
if (i != 1)
{
MessageBox("WRONG LOGIN PLEASE TRY AGAIN"," pop. ",MB_ICONASTERISK);
mysql_free_result( res ) ;

the problem is that data is not fetched
and i think exception is due to no value in res

Diff. between DestroyWindow() and EndDialog()

i want to execute some code when a dialog is destroyed, but the code in DeatroyWindow() function doesn't executes when i use EndDialog() but executes when i use DestroyWindow().

What is the diff. between these two and which should be best to use?

I'd go for DestroyWindow(), or OnOK, OnCancel if you are using MFC. I've never done anything with EndDialog().

Dialog Window Created by DialogBox, DialogBoxIndirect .. should be destroyed using EndDialog. OnOk, OnCancel internally uses EndDialog.

And surely OnDestroy() will get called when EndDialog is used.

Are u using MFC?

DestroyWindow is something you call, not something that gets called. In MFC,
CWnd::DestroyWindow() is virtual. If you've overridden it, your override will get called at the
end of DoModal() but that doesn't make it a good place to do something when a dialog is destroyed.
That's a side effect of the way MFC does modal dialogs.

I think a better place is any time at or after you receive a WM_NCDESTROY message.

ya... i'm too thinking that...
because i've placed code in overridden DestroyWindow() function
but it never gets called if EndDialog() method is used to close the dialog box. Frown | :(

Looking at the source code, that is correct Smile | :)

Note that when you receive WM_NCDESTROY, child windows (controls etc) have been destroyed.

If you need access to the controls before they are destroyed, respond to WM_DESTROY which is sent
before WM_NCDESTROY.

How to get press enter key message from combobox control?

If I get press enter key message from edit control, like this:

<br />
BOOL   PreTranslateMessage(MSG*   pMsg)     <br />
{   <br />
	<br />
	if(pMsg->message   ==   WM_KEYDOWN)   <br />
	{   <br />
		<br />
		CWnd   *p   =   GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1);   <br />
	<br />
		if(pMsg->wParam   ==   VK_RETURN   &&   pMsg->hwnd   ==   p->m_hWnd   )   <br />
		{   <br />
			MessageBox("OK");   <br />
			return   TRUE;   <br />
		}  <br />
<br />
	}   <br />
<br />
	return   CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);   <br />
}<br />

that's OK, but if I get press enter key message from combobox control:

<br />
BOOL   PreTranslateMessage(MSG*   pMsg)     <br />
{   <br />
	<br />
	if(pMsg->message   ==   WM_KEYDOWN)   <br />
	{   <br />
		<br />
		CWnd   *p   =   GetDlgItem(IDC_COMBO);   // IDC_COMBO: combobox<br />
	<br />
		if(pMsg->wParam   ==   VK_RETURN   &&   pMsg->hwnd   ==   p->m_hWnd   )   <br />
		{   <br />
			MessageBox("OK");   <br />
			return   TRUE;   <br />
		}  <br />
<br />
	}   <br />
<br />
	return   CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);   <br />
}<br />

pMsg->hwnd not equals p->m_hWnd,
why?

Hi,
I think this is because combo box is not a single window,it is a combo of list box, edit box and combo itself.
Try CComboBox::GetComboBoxInfo() and it has three HWND handle and match the EDIT box handle as the Enter key message must have been issued from edit control.
Best regards

Overlapped I/O with I/O Completion Ports

As I looked at some of the examples and articles posted on this site, and trying to code a scalable server, I have a few questions about the design.

How many I/O completion ports does a scalable server usually will use? I thought about it and decided maybe 2 or more? However, most examples I saw uses just 1. Two would mean one for a thread that solely accepts new connections using AcceptEx extension function loaded using WSAIoctl, and the other for another thread that deals with overlapped send, receive and transmit.

Or is it better to have a completion port per task? Say four for new connections, send, receive and transmit each on their own thread?

It seems like you're mixing terminology.

You should only need one I/O completion port. How many threads you have in the pool to handle
completion events is an issue though. I personally use a separate thread for listening because
it made it easier (or maybe even possible, I can't remember the details) to do conditional
accepts. For processing overlapped ops on the I/O completion port, you typically want at least
one thread per processor. There is some additional benefit to having more threads in the pool.

You may have seen these articles already, but I bookmarked them because they helped me alot...

Although I don't know the details of how you have implemented your lcd, a technique that might be useful is changing the mapping mode of the window (lcd). IOW, you would scale the dimensions of your current mapping mode (if your mapping mode is MM_ISOTROPIC or MM_ANISOTROPIC)...

Please, give more information, if you think you need more precise answers.
