Hi,
You can check for the existence of the platform SDK by checking for the VER_PRODUCTBUILD definition. It is defined in the ntverp.h header.
For VC6 it would be something like:
#if !defined(VER_PRODUCTBUILD) || VER_PRODUCTBUILD < 3790
#pragma message ("Error: You need the Microsoft Platform SDK!")
#endif

Of course it's going to work correctly at your job too. That's how I have been detecting if the platform SDK is installed since about 2003. I was tired of sending source code to other software engineers... and having them e-mail me back complaining that the code would not compile. So I added that little preprocessor statement... however... with a much more creative message!

the following code will not draw vertical lines..but when i comment out the part (top) of the code that draws the other set if lines it is able to draw the vertical lines ...im quite new to programming. am i missing something ? please help!!
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

//this part will draw horizontal, +ve and -ve gradient lines

It sounds as though the variables in the "top" part are influencing the variables in the "bottom" part. Use your debugger to step through the code to see if all of the variables are what you think they should be.

this line will always be executed at least once, as it sits inside a do-while loop, without any precondition. And for vertical lines, x1 equals x2, so the division will fail.
Your code isn't very well structured; what you should do is provide a general line drawing implementation, and one (or more) specialized ones; then have conditional tests organized such that exactly one implementation gets executed, depending on the input values.

Which means what exactly? Which part specifically are you having trouble with? Focus on just that part, and remove, or comment out, other irrelevant code.

Use the debugger to single step through your code to see what it is doing. Always break larger problems down into smaller ones.

This is not likely what you intended to do since RanFile will be non-zero whether the file was opened or not.

You could start by formatting your code properly by the use of <pre> tags; click the code button. Then try explaining exactly which part of the code has the problem and what that problem is.

If you are using MFC, check out CFile. If you are using Win32, check out WriteFile().

Have you tried calling BitBlt() in your WM_PAINT handler?

I have an app, developed in VC6.0 which uses a Date Time Picker control to display the time in a CTime object using HH:mm:ss format. This works OK on XP based PCs but when I run it on Windows 7 (32 bit) it displays the wrong time: A time of 00:00:10 is displayed as 16:00:10.
The Date Time Picker control is mapped to the CTime object using MFC DDX_DateTimeCtrl. The time value in the CTime object seems to be correct.
Has anyone come across this kind of thing before?
TIA

Sounds like the regional (i.e., locale) settings are different between the two machines.

hello guys... plz first consider this code.
<pre lang="c++">
void CMoveWindowDlg::MoveMyWindow()
{
CWnd* wind = GetDlgItem(IDC_UPDOWN); // Current button to which: this event handler is bound
ASSERT(wind!= NULL);
wind->GetWindowRect(&rect);
r.top = rect.top;
r.left = rect.left;
r.right = rect.right;
r.bottom = rect.bottom;
int height = rect.Height();
int width = rect.Width();
wind->MoveWindow(100, 100, width, height, 1);
}
</pre>
<b>1 - </b> Here I get the location and size in two things - <b>RECT r</b>, <b>CRect rect</b>. When I click on this button, it takes my button to the specified point. The problem is: if there is some other control already at that point like EditBox, this button will not work and the EditBox will come on top of it.
<b>2 -</b> I use another button to place this button back on the previous location by providing the location which I stored in <b>Rect r</b>, like this..
<pre lang="c++">GetDlgItem(IDC_UPDOWN)->MoveWindow(&r,1);</pre>
But unfortunately, this also does not place the buttun at its original place.
Problems are specified so whats wrong with this code?
|
|
|
|

1 And what is your question?
2 This:
overloaded Name wrote: wind->GetWindowRect(&rect);
will give you screen coordinates while this:
overloaded Name wrote: GetDlgItem(IDC_UPDOWN)->MoveWindow(&r,1);
expects the coordinates to be in "client of the parent window space". Use e.g. ScreenToClient to convert screen coordinates to client coordinates of the parent window.

Hi!
I've been asked in an interview whether we could do all the things that were possible in C++ in C also. I answered Yes. But the interviewer further asked why C++ if you can do all the things in C itself(Constructor, Destructor, Polymorphism,
Templates every thing is possible in C)? I don't know the answer. Can anybody explain?
