I am developing an app that will read an XML file from a standard web server and use its contents as variables in a dialog based app. I will be using it to read member profiles. There will be a separate XML document for each member using the following XML tags.
<name>Joe Bloggs</location>
<age>24</age>
<location>England</location>
and these will be displayed in the dialog as:
Name: Joe Bloggs
Age: 24
Location: England
The field names are labels in the dialog and the variables are taken from the XML document.
The idea of this is to be able to update user profiles myself without having to re-distribute the app or use a HTML web page control.
Andy ideas would be gladly appreciated.
.NET or not .NET? MFC is the question......

I'm sort of playing around with the same stuff right now. You need to use a parser and that sort of means MS's parser. You might take a look at the following site:
http://www.earthweb.com/article/0,,10455_629271,00.html
It contains about as much useful information as I've found so far. As usual the MSDN documentation for the C++ side is very sparse.
Let me know what you find out.

Here's another link:

Also, after looking a little more closely at MSDN it is a little more thorough than I thought at first. The "XML Dom Methods" section under the XML section (Platform SDK Documentation/Data Services/XML...) should be enough to get you started. I'm up and rolling now.

Hello  ,
Did anyone use the SetMenuInfo API?
I want to use it in a MFC project but all I get is:
'SetMenuInfo' : undeclared identifier message
So can you please tell me what should I include or define or what ...
Thanks!
Best regards,
X3m

Note: MFC already provide ModifyMenu function that can do what you want.
In case you still want to do it Yourself, here's an example:
BOOL ChangeMenuText(LPTSTR szText, UINT nID, CMenu* pMenu)
{
MENUITEMINFO mii;
memset(&mii, 0, sizeof(MENUITEMINFO));
mii.cbSize = sizeof(MENUITEMINFO);
mii.fMask = MIIM_STATE|MIIM_TYPE;
mii.wID = nID;
mii.fType = MFT_STRING;
mii.dwTypeData = (LPTSTR)szText;
mii.cch = _tcslen(szText);
return ::SetMenuItemInfo(pMenu->GetSafeHmenu(), nID, FALSE, &mii);
}
- God bless the World

Can you please tell or point me to some information about writing a CBitmap which I create in my app to a .bmp file
Thank you in advance

Check the Bitmaps & Palettes section here at CodeProject. There's a couple of articles that do what you want.

Are there any demos that show how a SDI program like Macromedia Dreamweaver uses multiple windows. I.e. for every new ducument a new window is opened. I have tried to implement my own attept at this and all i get is the one window that opens all documents.
.NET or not .NET? MFC is the question......

|

|
|
I'm not sure I've understood your question. If you use SDI, then by design a different app instance is launched every time you double click on a document. Could you please be more specific?

What i mean is, The app i use has a splash screen and a few other startup features. what i want is a way of creating a new windows from the File>New menu item and when another document is opened while the app is still running.

I see... Well, I have no idea myself, but I found this Usenet article that might be of help to you. Good luck!

Hello,
I've got a very simple decision to your problem
Here it is:
void CYourView::OnFileNew()
{
WinExec(AfxGetAppName(),SW_SHOWNORMAL);
}
Add a handler of ID_FILENEW menu from the classwizard in your CView derived class with the above code. Enjoy!
Best regards,
X3m
|
|
|
|
|
now the app keeps re-opening itself and required the PC to be turned off. Is there a way of just re-initialising the main window each time and not the app?
.NET or not .NET? MFC is the question......
|
|
|
|
|
Are you sure you handle OnFileNew in your CView and not in your CMainFrame or CWinApp class?
I have a working code of this if ou wan't I can email it to you?
Best regards,
X3m

|

yes if you would do so that would be great. jonathann4@hotmail.com

Hi !
I need to check in a C++ app, as precisely as possible, the time spent by the processor in a function.
I have no idea where to start !
Any help will be greatly appreciated !

If you have access to the source code of the program, and the version of your Visual Studio installation is Professional or Enterprise, then you can do a profiling of your code, which gives you more or less accurate summaries of the time spent by the program in each function.
You can start learning about profiling in Visual Studio with Cornell University tutorial Profiling with MS Visual Studio Tools.

Hi Jerome.
Here's a simple class, it's not my idea, unfortunately I don't know whose copyright it is, I think it's from somwhere at CP:
#pragma once
class CDuration
{
protected:
LARGE_INTEGER m_liStart;
LARGE_INTEGER m_liStop;
LONGLONG m_llFrequency;
LONGLONG m_llCorrection;
public: CDuration(void);
void Start(void);
void Stop(void);
long GetDuration(void) const;
};
inline CDuration::CDuration(void)
{ LARGE_INTEGER liFrequency;
QueryPerformanceFrequency(&liFrequency);
m_llFrequency = liFrequency.QuadPart;
// Calibration
Start();
Stop();
m_llCorrection = m_liStop.QuadPart-m_liStart.QuadPart;
}
inline void CDuration::Start(void)
{ // Ensure we will not be interrupted by any other thread for a while
Sleep(0); QueryPerformanceCounter(&m_liStart);}
inline void CDuration::Stop(void)
{QueryPerformanceCounter(&m_liStop);}
inline long CDuration::GetDuration(void) const
{
return (long)(m_liStop.QuadPart-m_liStart.QuadPart-m_llCorrection)*1000000.0 / m_llFrequency;}
usage e.g.:
CDuration durat;
durat.Start();
FunctionCallToMeasure();
durat.Stop();
long ms_needed = durat.GetDuration();
I think the GetDuration return gives the time in milliseconds. I try to find the docu, then I can tell you more!
Good Luck, Flo

Hi Jerome
there you find the article, source and demo:
