and thanks for clarifying the reference. so i'm not wrong when i changed everything to return pointers. now my code looks incomprehensible.. with both pointers and references... and i'm not going to go and standardize my code :p it's going to be fine as it stands.

To quench your thirst for knowledge
class Foo
{
int x,y;
public Foo(int _x, int _y) : x(_x), y(_y)
{}
}
And there are a few reasons to prefer this syntax to manually assigning values to members. For one, if you are initializing const or reference members, you'd have to use the above syntax. Two, using the above syntax is more efficient. If you use manual member assignment, there will be two calls (constructor and operator=) for every non-POD member, if you use the above syntax, there will be only one. For eg,
class Foo
{
string x;
public Foo(string y) : x(y) {}
}
There will be only constructor call to string with the above syntax, as the compiler calls string(const string &) for initializing x. If you do
class Foo
{
string x;
public Foo(string y)
{
x = y;
}
}
there will be two, string() and operator=() on string.

I succeeded in obtaining a CListCtrl item info using HitTest() when the List Ctrl is owned by my current thread. But when I tried HitTest an item of a List Ctrl owned by other threads such as Explorer folder view, I failed. My code is as follows:
// current cursor pos
CPoint pt;
// Suppose pWnd is the window owned by another thread
CListView* pListView = static_cast<CListView*>(pWnd);
// Get the reference of List Ctrl
CListCtrl& listCtrl = pListView->GetListCtrl();
if(listCtrl.GetItemCount() != 0)
{
::GetCursorPos(&pt);
// Get the client pos for HitTest
pListView->ScreenToClient(&pt);
LVHITTESTINFO lvhti;
lvhti.pt = pt;
// Now do HitTest() to get the item at current cursor pos
int nItem = listCtrl.HitTest(&lvhti);
if(nItem != -1)
{
...
}
...
}
The nItem always equals to -1 even when mouse is on the list ctrl item, which indicates that the HitTest() fails.
I also tried SubItemHitTest() and even AttachThreadInput() but all seem doesn't work.
Can anyone help me solve the problem? Thanks.

It's not that it's another thread - it's another process. You're passing a pointer to memory allocated in your address space, to some code executing in another address space - it cannot access the memory, and so the call fails.

Not easily. You'd have to get your code inside the other process' address space. So it would have to be in a DLL, and you'd have to force the other process to load your DLL. If you're doing this with explorer.exe, you can use the SHLoadInProc() function to get explorer to load your DLL. But it's not easy.

i have been try it out but failed. The second and third options should only be executed when there is a process running. But now i fail to write that error message so the user does not suspend a process while there is no process running. part of my code is below
<br />
int menu(void)<br />
{<br />
char iobuf[80];<br />
int choice;<br />
int i,len,valid;<br />
printf ("\n");<br />
printf ("*****************************************\n");<br />
printf ("*\t\t\t\t\t*\n*\tPROCESS CREATION \t\t*\n");<br />
printf ("=========================================");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 1: Create a process \t\t=");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 2: Suspend the process\t\t=");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 3: Resume process \t=");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 4: Shutdown the process \t=");<br />
printf ("\n=========================================\n");<br />
printf ("\n");<br />
printf("\nEnter choice (1-4): ");<br />
valid = 0;<br />
<br />

Always give your variables values when you create them. Unless this is a C program ( this is all C code, so I guess it could be ), you shouldn't declare all your variables at the top, but just before you use them.
If you're always creating the process, you'd need to keep a handle to it to suspend and resume anyhow, right ? So declare that, make it NULL, and check for NULL before showing the other options. Of course, all of this needs to be in an endless loop then, so it shows more than once. Unless you want to run it every time. Then you need to try and find the handle first.

OK, so it IS a C program ? ( Not C++ )
If you want to put the menu into a seperate function ( not a bad idea ), then you need to pass in the hProcess variable, so you know if there's a process going or not.

You mean passing it as an input?

Yes, so you can check if it's NULL, and alter your options accordingly.

While it is a bad design, this code is syntactically correct. The "crush" your program is experiencing is in some other code. Why not single-step through the code until you get to the statement(s) in error?

Why comment out the scanf?
try this ...
<br />
int choice;<br />
while (true) {<br />
printf ("\n");<br />
printf ("*****************************************\n");<br />
printf ("*\t\t\t\t\t*\n*\tPROCESS CREATION \t\t*\n");<br />
printf ("=========================================");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 1: Create a process \t\t=");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 2: Suspend the process\t\t=");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 3: Resume process \t=");<br />
printf ("\n=\t 4: Shutdown the process \t=");<br />
printf ("\n=========================================\n");<br />
printf ("\n");<br />
printf ("\nEnter choice (1-4): ");<br />
<br />
scanf("%u", &choice);<br />
<br />
switch (choice) {<br />
case 1:<br />
case 2:<br />
case 3:<br />
case 4: return choice; break;<br />
default: printf("\nPlese enter numeric digits only (1-4)\n"); break;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
Now the while(true) { } loop is used, it should be used sparingly. That loop will keep iterating through the menu indefinitely. The only way to get out is to choose one of the valid options. The switch will catch options 1 through 4 and return them, anything else will show the error. The switch-case statement is very useful in this case because you can run code for each option and handle all other cases. If you choose say option 2, it'll enter at case 2 but then keep going through case 3 and then it will reach case 4, return the number 2 (stored in choice) and then break; (it's really unreachable code because the function will end at the return statement.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to emulate assembly commands in c++.
Like for instance, there is the command LDA# which is load directly into the accumulator at whatever the address specified is. The only problem is i have no idea how to do this in c++. So what i need help with is taking the LDA# and recreating it in c++(or any other command for that matter). If anyone knows how to do this could you please help me out.
Thanks

You can actually embed assembler in your C++ application.

I need to attach crystal reports to my project. Where can I get the tool from?
awasthy
Any work worth doing is worth doing well.

I'm afraid that you should have to buy it. I remember an older version of Crystal Reports was added to MS VC 4.0 CD for free.

A Workspace that runs perfectly on Windows XP at work, is producing an exception on XP Home (at home!!). It is in the InitInstance of the app attempting to execute ProcessShellCommand(CmdInfo). Its giving an exception (0XE06D7363). Have trawled the web - checked and double checked all my project setting, all to no avail. Am I being stupid and missing something obvious??????

Hey,
Me too facing the same problem... in ProcessShellCommand as u faced... did u get any soln on this .. plz let me know

Hello,
I'm trying to create a menu (actually it is a modified toolbar) that looks like the IE or Mozilla menu bar.
I've read this article: http://www.codeproject.com/docking/sizablerebar.asp
Now I'm having problems in creating such a flat toolbar in WinXP using the WinAPI.
The final result should look like this:
http://user96.kundenserver9hsgbr.de/menu1.gif
And this is my current toolbar:
http://user96.kundenserver9hsgbr.de/menu2.gif
For the moment I am not interested in the background color (this comes from the rebar control I think)
I'm just interested in the hover effect which looks quite different. What should I change?
I'm using the TBSTYLE_FLAT style but I do no get the expected results.

Are you talking about hot tracking?
Check out the TB_SETHOTIMAGELIST message.
You need to use image lists for button images and create a list used for "hot" items.
