Hello.
I am facing this problem, i have a parent dialog wich has a couple of buttons and edits boxes, now when i pass the mouse over a button a child modeless window should popup.
Now i have it all working, but when the child window appears the parent dialog loses focus, that is annoying, because if i am typing in the edit box and move the mouse over a button it loses focus because the child window appears.
Is there a way to solve this without losing focus in the parent window?

Do you have the child's parent and owner set correctly?

i only set parent in the create method:
Create(MYDIALOG::IDD, this);
is this what you mean?

Try creating your popup window hidden and then show it with ShowWindow(SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE).

Using the SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE flag when creating/showing your window should show it without your parent window losing focus.

i have tried
Cdialog *d = new Cdialog(this);
d->Create(Cdialog::IDD, this);
d->ShowWindow(SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE);
and it stills do the same, it stills lose focus.
what i have notice is that using disable property of the dialog does not lose focus in the parent window but it of course disable the child window

I need to write an application that doesnt allow some specific websites to be opened. I think the solution is socket programming on the port 8080 but not sure about the details.
Am I wrong about the solution?
What is the solution for this?
Thanks a lot.

I don't know, but a search such as this might give you some ideas.

Thanks but as you see the results are just bunch of companies with a proxy application to sell

I realize that, but sometimes even looking from the outside-in, you can glean helpful hints as to how an application works.

Or you could just go read something like this[^]

How can I tell if the registry key doesn't exit?
GetProfileInt(strSection, "Variable",0);
Well, this will return 0 if Variable doesn't exist by default. How can I know if "Variable" doesn't even exist, becasue I would like to do something else based on that.
Thanks

By calling RegQueryValueEx().

This function is intended for .ini files.

Thanks. Am I understanding this correctly?
RegQueryValueEx():Retrieves the type and data for the specified value name associated with an open registry key.
This seems to retrieve the type of "Variable" in my example, I would like to know if "Variable" exists in the registry before I do anything to it.
Thanks

I believe your capacity to understand is like quadrupled if you actually read the documentation
If the lpValueName registry value does not exist, the function returns ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND.

Thanks. I feel smarter already.

The above wouldn't work for what I need. RegOpenKeyEx did.

Hi all,
I've got a small problem with derived classes and a wrapper class. To show you what my problem is, I write down some code. Here's what I do now:
class Base
{
doFunc1();
virtual doFunc2();
}
class Der1 : public Base
{
doFunc2();
}
class Der2 : public Base
{
doFunc2();
}
class Wrap
{
Der1 *d1;
Der2 *d2;
doFunc1();
doFunc2();
}
Wrap::doFunc1()
{
if(somecondition)
d1->doFunc1();
else
d2->doFunc1();
}
Wrap::doFunc2()
{
if(somecondition)
d1->doFunc2();
else
d2->doFunc2();
}
From my program I can call:
Wrap::doFunc1();
Now I want to remove the Wrapper calls and replace them with function pointers like this:
class Wrap
{
Der1 *d1;
Der2 *d2;
(*doFunc1)();
(*doFunc2)();
}
Wrap::Wrap
{
if(somecondition)
this->doFunc1 = &Der1::doFunc1;// causes C2440
this->doFunc2 = &Der1::doFunc2;// causes C2440
else
this->doFunc1 = &Der1::doFunc1;// causes C2440
this->doFunc2 = &Der1::doFunc2;// causes C2440
}
From my program I would like to call:
Wrap::doFunc1();
The line this->doFunc1 = ... causes C2440: type cast: cannot convert from (__thiscall Der1::*)() to (__cdecl*)().
I know that class members are not the same as normal c-functions, this causes the __thiscall to __cdecl error, but I thought that there is some trick to get it to work.
Any ideas?

Look at the pointer-to-member operators .* and ->*
«_Superman_»

|
|
|

Does not help, since my Wrapper is a different class. Pointer-to-member works only inside a class, e.g. Testpm: void (Testpm::*pmfn)() = &Testpm::m_func1;. I need e.g. void (Wrap::*doFunc1)() = &Der1::doFunc1. Using it on different classes causes C2440 
Thanks for the answer.

I have a dialog that is a keypad. It is called from a Login dialog. The problem is that if a mouse button is clicked outside the keypad dialog, the keypad becomes unusable. I'm thinking that this dialog should be modal. How to accomplish setting the keypad dialog as modal in the following code snippet
void CLogin::OnBnEnterId()
{
// TODO: Add your control notification handler code here
// have to place coords here, since initialization takes place later
winInfo.popup_X = 395;
winInfo.popup_Y = 50;
CKeypad kp(mainFramePtr->wndPtr, winInfo);
int intValue = 0;
if (kp.Get_Integer("Enter ID Number", 0, 99999, &intValue))
{
char temp[6];
char temp1[6];
.
.
.
.
The keypad closes on button that returns IDOK.
Thanks for your help.
