Hello!
I have a dialog-based main window. In this dialog there is a list control. By using the context menu, the user can open another dialog (think of properties of an entry).
Now the problem: when calling dlg.DoModal(), the main window quickly flickers a bit. It's not much, but annoying anyway.
Any chance to remove this flicker?
Best regards,
Dominik

how do you transmit the datas to the child dialog ?

There isn't any. It's called directly from the main menu like this:
CMyMainDialog::OnAbout()
{
CAboutDlg dlg;
dlg.DoModal();
}
I'm doing some things in functions like PreTranslateMessage, OnInitPopupMenu, etc. but nothing of these should do anything... Is there anything you may not do in those functions? I'm just using simple functions, that don't modify the GUI directly, like getting the item count of a list control, etc.
Thanks for your answer and best regards,
Dominik

Perhaps you have a heavyweight OnEraseBackground() (in your parent dialog) that's getting called each time the child modal dialog is displayed?

I haven't overridden that function... Should I?

You often do in Non-Dialog apps. It wouldn't hurt to try.

int APIENTRY WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,
HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine,
int nCmdShow)
The code above is from a skin change code. I want to rewrite the program into a dll for other language.
How to pass hte HINSTANCE from VB or others?
What is the meaning of nCmdShow and lpCmdLine?

Buddy that the Entry Point of Any Win32 api Based Project i.e. you can take it as main() function in old c/c++ dos based.
the hInstance,HprevInstance are Provided Windows and there is no WinMain in Dll as Entry point for DLL is DllMain()

I'm using dialog window for data display. The data displayed on Gauge control with colored background, using StaticText control. At the first appearance of the dialog the data is displayed. After moving focus to another window and returning to my dialog the data in StaticText control is not displayed, only the colored Gauge appears. But after few minutes the data becomes visible.
How can I cause controls to be refreshed in the correct way?
|
|
|
|
|
am not sure that i understood your problem correctly
but i want you to try this solution
put the line of code that draw on the dialog or insert data in the Controls
inside the function called "OnPaint" --> "WM_PAINT"
you will find this function and if not found bring it from the Class wizard of the Dialog.
the OnPaint is called every time an Update Occured in your window.
so when you will set the focus to your dialog again the OnPaint will be called which will draw and set inputs again.

I'm learning C++ and I think I have a good understanding of the basics so far. I wrote this program to take information from the console about a student, and then print it out in a simple tabular format.
The problem I'm running into is that for some particular reason, I have to getline() twice for input of the student's name, or otherwise it will be blank. For the life of me, I can't figure it out, and was wondering if someone else could help figure out why this bug is happening.
The bug occurs in function getstudentdata(), and the line is getline(cin, s.name); ... I have to have it twice, or other wise it will leave the name blank.
The error is present in both the visual c++ compiler, and the g++ linux compiler. Below is the sourcecode (which works). To see the bug in action, comment out the getline(cin, s.name); and compile/run the program. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Robert

maybe try flushing the standard input and outputs for that matter wouldn't hurt
|
|
|
|

I just tried your advice... I put in:
cout << flush;
before the getline(cin, s.name); but unfortunately, it didn't seem to solve the problem. 
The only other input I took before getline(cin, s.name)was
cin >> numofstudents;
So... I decided to change that line from getline(cin, s.name); to cin >> s.name; and everything worked fined up until the point where I use getline(cin, s.id); Then it skips input again.
How would I go about to flush the input for getline();

I found the solution...
By placing:
cin.ignore();
before the getline(), I don't have to use getline() twice. It took a lot of googling to find this out, since the answer doesn't seem so obvious:

But I would like to thank John DeVito for helping me out on this. Thanks!

Ok. I have an MFC app in VC++ .net
I have several Edit control boxes that I want to type in a voltage (in the form X.XX). Then I want to be able to take the voltage I entered, do a analog to digital conversion for an 8-bit number.. so something like voltage * 256/5, round the number to the nearest int.. then convert the int to the unsigned char representation. Now I think this will have some problems because there are several non-printing characters from 0 to 255 so the conversion will not work. Right?
If this is wrong let me know! Hehe. This is the easy way for me to do this problem.
The second way I don't know how to do.. same thing except I want to convert to an unsigned short.
The function that I am ultimately sending this data to takes an (unsigned char *)
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Also I would rather have unmanaged code help. No System namespaces. hehe. Thanks

Use GetWindowText to get the number (as a string) from the edit control.
Use strtod to convert the string to a double.
Do your calculation, whatever it is.
To round the number to the nearest int you have to add 0.5 then cast it to an int
int MyInt = (int)(MyDouble + 0.5); A simple cast always rounds down, so adding 0.5 gives the effect of rounding up.
You can do a cast from an int to a short or char, you will just lose some info if your int is too large a value. The non-printing characters only matter if you actually want to print them.

Well I don't want to print the characters out, they are just being used as a one byte representation so I can send that byte across a usb line and then do the opposite conversion, char to int to decimal. etc...
For some reason when I've done this before.. I dont get the right symbol.. or maybe I am..
In the debugger in VC++ the value shows up in its hex value and then it also shows the actually char.. and for the ones that I thought it wasn't working it was showing that weird square character....
Am I just stupid and its doing the conversion right its just not showing it for whatever reason? (ie cuz its a nonprinting). It also happened for a couple of values around the middle of 0-255 at about 128.. That's totally a printable character.. So I dunno.

You only have to worry about the hex value. What the displayed character looks like depends on glyph the current font uses to display it. The square just means the current font does not have a glyph associated with that ascii character.

I posted a question yesterday, but I never got any answers. The original question was about resizing a grid when double-clicked on. I got that part working, but the grid is still not redrawing correctly... There are other controls on the CFormView that the grid is covering when it's resized (like it's supposed to), but these controls are still showing through the grid until I actually move a scrollbar, then the grid is on top correctly. I tried RedrawWindow(),Invalidate(),InvalidateRect(), and even SetWindowPos() with &wndTopMost, and it still shows the other textboxes through the grid when it's resized. When my grid is resized to fill the entire form I don't want any other controls to be visible until they double-click it again. Any help?

I suggest hiding the other controls. It should be a simple case of calling ShowWindow(SW_HIDE) on them. You can use GetWindow(GW_NEXT) to find the other controls.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

that's what I ended up doing. I used EnumChildWindows() with this function:
BOOL __stdcall MyHideWindow(HWND hwnd, LPARAM lparam)
{
BOOL* pbVisible = (BOOL*)lparam;
CWnd *pWnd = CWnd::FromHandle(hwnd);
int nCurrentID = pWnd->GetDlgCtrlID();
if(nCurrentID != IDC_PROJECT && nCurrentID != IDC_PROJECTSTATIC &&
nCurrentID != IDC_VIEWSTATIC && nCurrentID != IDC_FILTER &&
nCurrentID != IDC_CUSTOM1 && nCurrentID != IDC_TEST)
{
int nCmdShow = (*pbVisible ? SW_SHOW : SW_HIDE);
pWnd->ShowWindow(nCmdShow);
}
return TRUE;
}
then send it in a true or a false for which one I want to do, leaving certain controls alone.

I need to play a WAV file when a push button is pressed, I did try the Wave Class for Playing and Recording Wave Files class on this site but complained about the my WAVs being invalid format.
Any simple examples out there that work for VS 7.1
Many thanks.
