Pretty self explanatory error really.
Do you have any handle open to this file?
Is this file a DLL or an executable and is running at the moment?
Is it open in another application? Excel for instance does not let you delete a file while it is open with it.
Hope this helps...

well,
This file is normal text file and even if that is locked by any other process I want to delete it .

That a bad idea, you know?
Beside being a security breach (one process taking away a resource of another), it would lead to any amount of unstability: Your program youd not be sure about the 'openness' of a file it just opened, and had to check before *every* access.
Even then, there would be cases where the file disappeared between checking and access.
No, file locking is OK as it is.
Find the offendig process and end it.

Have a look on codeguru.com for a program named forcedel.exe, if I remember correctly it comes with source code.

Hi!
Sorry, but I can speak English only a bit.
I have a little problem. I would like to display an image (GDI+), display a text and I would like to save them.
Graphics graphics(lpDrawItemStruct->hDC);
graphics.DrawImage(pDoc->bitmap,...);
graphics.DrawString(...);
Up to this point OK.
And after that I would like to save them!
(in a Doc/OnSaveDocument):
bitmap->Save(...);
But only the image saved after that. How can I save both the image and the text?
How can I copy the text into the pDoc->bitmap?????????????
Please help me! Thanks!

There are some very good articles at codeproject on GDI+ programming; they should answer your question.
It sounds like you are drawing the text on a copy of the bitmap and not the original bitmap. If you draw the bitmap on a window and then draw text onto that image, then you are not drawing on the original bitmap (image). What you need to do, is draw the text on the original image or copy the temporary image to the origianal image.
I am not sure how this is done with GDI+, but it is easy to do in GDI.

So I would like to save the original image with the text. I have a DC and I draw onto an image and after that I draw a text too. And I would like to save them together into the original image.
Please help!

Some thing like that.
Basicaly (GDI using MFC):
1) CDC dcMem;
1) dcMem.CreateCompatibleDC(NULL);
2) CBitmap* pOldBmp = dcMem.SelectObject (your_bitmap);
3) dcMem.TextOut(x,y,pStr);
4) dcMem.SelectObject(pOldBmp);
The original bitmap has now been modified and can be saved, with changes.

Thanks!
I'm try it, but there is an error:
CBitmap* pOldBmp = dcMem.SelectObject (your_bitmap);
error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'void *' to 'class Gdiplus::CBitmap *'
What's the matter?

|
|
|
|
I used your code, but the TextOut didn't display the text, and didn't save it. What's the matter?
|
|

Well, I expected you to do a little reseach (not depend on just what I said [although is was correct]).
What I gave you, would change the bitmap stored in memory. It, of course, did not save anything. After you have changed the bitmap, how you save it is up to you. A non-C++ call to TextOut is (would be):
TextOut(hdc,x,y,lpString,cbString); // where cbString is number-of-characters.
Please do us and your-self a favor: Post a minimum example, that shows what the problem is.

Hello,
Is there is any Windows Equivalent of these Runtime Function memset(), isdigit(), malloc(), realloc(), atoi().....
any Article or Link related to this would be Very Great Help!!!

I am not sure I understand your questions as these functions exist in "Windows" and if by this you mean Visual C++.
Hope this helps,

Hope So,
Actually these function which I have mentioned above i.e. atoi,memset etc are defined in MSVCRT.dll I just looking for windows equivalent for these function.
For e.g. equivalent of strcmp in windows is lstrcmp.now, you must be wondering why I required that, first to reduce dependency of MSVCRT.dll and second reduce the size of executable.

Which is really just a misnomer. You either have a dependency on a DLL or you don't. There is no in-between (i.e., reduce). If you use even one exported function from a DLL, the DLL in its entirety is mapped into the address space of your application. And since MSVCRT.DLL is probably already mapped to other applications, one more is irrelevant.
To get a better understanding of file and process sizes and how they differ, I suggest reading this article.

I'm pretty sure lstrcmp() ends up calling strcmp().
[edit]
I was wrong. lstrcmp() is contained in kernel.dll. It's a separate function because it works differently from strcmp().

It is very hard to get away from the MSVCRT.dll, since many (if not most) libraries depend on it. Therefor, you will probably be dependent on it even if you do not call any of the standard C-functions that it contains.
When designing a COM control: You have the option of defining minimum dependencies, which attempts not to include MSVCRT.dll, but I have never been able to eliminate that dependency my self.

In the UK - and in most of Europe as well - we have lost an hour over the week-end. We get used to it and Windows usually handle it pretty well but... I have a client whose date / time is indicated properly in the task bar but COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime returns the time -1 hour (the old time - the GMT one).
Restarting the application does not change anything.
Any idea about what could cause this?
Should I mention it happens on a Novell network ot is this a red herring?
Thanks in advance for any help.

The administrator found the problem. I give his answer for future reference.
"Our W2K servers do not synch their time from Novell network, they synch their time from PDC, which synchronises itself using NTP. Our Novell network synchronises itself from the same NTP source as well. Neither W2K nor Novell has the ability of peering through NTP - they are both just synching themselves of an NTP source. All servers and workstations are displaying the correct time on the system tray or similar - and that might be something that baffled everyone.
The culprit for the error was a legacy environment variable TZ with its value set to GMT0, as required by Surveycraft since the day one. Surveycraft does all time zone difference calculations itself as the MS C-libraries were quite buggy on that respect in the mid 80's. To be able to do it properly Surveycraft required the TZ to be GMT0.
During the winter that did not make a difference, since the GMT0, or UTC as it should be called, was the same as the local time. Now, since the local time is UTC+1, there is an hour difference between the local time and GMT0, but the localtime was returning a time instructed by the TZ, a GMT0 time.
Removing setting of legacy environment variable TZ from the login script corrects situation here, but also cripples Surveycraft operations with CATI during the daylight saving time (should there be ever need for such a thing). A quick test indicated that Surveycraft and AskiaVoice were only applications affected by changing of the value of TZ environment variable - every other one tested returned the same value for current time regardless of the existence of TZ environment variable or its value."

Surveycraft should probably have been using gmtime(), not localtime(). gmtime() always returns the current UTC time. localtime() uses TZ if it's set and falls back on the Windows settings if it's not.
Most Windows applications will use GetSystemTime (returns UTC) or GetLocalTime (returns the current time in the time zone selected in Control Panel/Date and Time), rather than the C run-time libraries.
An additional issue is that DOS stored the local time in the hardware clock. It did not have any native support for Daylight Savings Time. When asked for UTC [gmtime(), time()], the DOS C run-time would convert back from local time (with the inherent flaws around the Daylight Savings start and end dates). Windows inherits keeping the hardware clock in local time, for compatibility, but only reads it at boot time, converting to UTC. It then maintains the clock in memory without reference to the hardware clock, relying on interrupts to update the in-memory clock. The hardware clock is, I think, only updated when the time zone changes or the date and time are set explicitly (either by the user or by the NTP client), and also on system shutdown.

Thanks for this... and I have just read your article which is very useful as well!

I had written an application in a language version. All displaying strings in my application were written in this language in the string table.
Now, How could I add support for other languages without modifying the existed resources?
Is it possible to be done by adding resources such as string table in other languages?
What should I do to use resources of the specified language and let the IDE build an application of specified language?
I'll appreciate your help, thanks~~!
