Hi All

I am making a dilog based application where I need to enumerate registry keys and all its subkys,
I am able to enumerate all keys and subkeys,
Now the problem is that I want to diplay all the keys in tree form( by CTreeCtrl class) as in regedit.
I am using following code for enumerating keys and subkeys
Here all subkeys of "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT" are enumerated.

<br />
<br />
LONG lResult;<br />
int iDepth = 0;<br />
CString cstrKeyRootName = _T("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT");<br />
CString cstrKeyName = _T("");<br />
CString cstrFullPathStr;<br />
<br />
	<br />
HKEY hCurKey, hPrevKey;<br />
HKEY hParentKey[100];<br />
DWORD dwParentIndex[100];<br />
TCHAR strCurString[1024], strPrevString[1024];<br />
TCHAR strParentString[1024][100];<br />
DWORD dwCurIndex = 0, dwPrevIndex = 0;<br />
HKEY hKeyRootName = HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT;<br />
<br />
lResult = RegOpenKeyEx(hKeyRootName, cstrKeyName, 0, KEY_ENUMERATE_SUB_KEYS, &hCurKey);<br />
<br />
if(cstrKeyName.IsEmpty())<br />
	cstrFullPathStr = cstrKeyRootName;<br />
else<br />
	cstrFullPathStr = cstrKeyRootName + _T("\\") + cstrKeyName;<br />
<br />
do<br />
{<br />
	lResult = RegEnumKey(hCurKey, dwCurIndex, strCurString, sizeof(strCurString));<br />
<br />
	hPrevKey = hCurKey;<br />
	dwPrevIndex = dwCurIndex;<br />
	_tcscpy(strPrevString, strCurString);<br />
<br />
	if((lResult == ERROR_NO_MORE_ITEMS) || (lResult == ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE))<br />
	{<br />
							<br />
		iDepth--;<br />
		if(iDepth < 0)<br />
         	  break;<br />
		  <br />
<br />
		hCurKey = hParentKey[iDepth];<br />
		dwCurIndex = dwParentIndex[iDepth] + 1;<br />
		_tcscpy(strCurString, strParentString[iDepth]);<br />
<br />
		int i = cstrFullPathStr.ReverseFind(_T('\\'));<br />
		CString cstrTemp;<br />
		cstrTemp = cstrFullPathStr.Left(i);<br />
		cstrFullPathStr = cstrTemp;<br />
<br />
		continue;<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	else<br />
	{<br />
	        hParentKey[iDepth] = hCurKey;<br />
		dwParentIndex[iDepth] = dwCurIndex;<br />
		_tcscpy(strParentString[iDepth], strCurString);<br />
<br />
		cstrFullPathStr += _T("\\");<br />
		cstrFullPathStr += strCurString;<br />
<br />
		lResult = RegOpenKeyEx(hCurKey, strCurString, 0, KEY_ENUMERATE_SUB_KEYS, &hCurKey);<br />
<br />
		iDepth ++;<br />
		dwCurIndex = 0;<br />
	}<br />
<br />
}while(TRUE);<br />
<br />

Now I have been stucked that how to insert these keys into tree.

please tell the modification in the code for inserting keys into the tree.

Please reply.
Thanks

Try calling InsertKeyIntoTree(pTree, hCurKey);

(You'll have to write that function yourself, of course.) Wink | ;)

Hi

I heve tried to achieve goal as follows:

<br />
<br />
	do<br />
	{<br />
		lResult = RegEnumKey(hCurKey, dwCurIndex, strCurString, sizeof(strCurString));<br />
<br />
		hPrevKey = hCurKey;<br />
		dwPrevIndex = dwCurIndex;<br />
		_tcscpy(strPrevString, strCurString);<br />
<br />
<br />
		if((lResult == ERROR_NO_MORE_ITEMS) || (lResult == ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE))<br />
		{<br />
							<br />
			iDepth--;<br />
			if(iDepth < 0)<br />
				break;<br />
		<br />
			continue;<br />
		}<br />
<br />
		else<br />
		{<br />
			<br />
			hParentKey[iDepth] = hCurKey;<br />
			dwParentIndex[iDepth] = dwCurIndex;<br />
			_tcscpy(strParentString[iDepth], strCurString);<br />
			InsertKeyIntoTree(htRootKey,strCurString,hCurKey);<br />
			lResult = RegOpenKeyEx(hCurKey, strCurString, 0, KEY_ENUMERATE_SUB_KEYS, &hCurKey);<br />
<br />
			iDepth ++;<br />
			dwCurIndex = 0;<br />
		}<br />
<br />
	}while(TRUE);<br />
<br />

<br />
void COEPATHDlg::InsertKeyIntoTree(HTREEITEM htRootKey,CString strCurString,HKEY hCurKey)<br />
{<br />
	m_RegistryTree.InsertItem(strCurString,NULL,NULL,htRootKey);<br />
<br />
}<br />

but it is printing again all the kyas at the same level.

Please suggest me.

Thanks

}

you forget to store the returning HTREEITEM handle in required variable

Hi
Here I have been stucked in maintaining HTREEITEM for all the Registry keys because every time InsertKeyIntoTree( ) is called htRootKey is passed so each key is inserted at the same level

So please tell me that how can I maintain HTREEITEM for all the keys so that when I pass it to the InsertKeyIntoTree( ) it get place at the desired location in the hierarchy.

Please reply.
Thanks.

Here is small logic :-
1. Change Signature of the InsertKeyIntoTree function to return the HTREEITEM handle.
2. Now when you Insert the Parent, store the Keys into some Data structure
3. otherwise pass that key as Parent Paramter to then Tree Ctrl

TBBUTTON tbb;

memset(&tbb, 0, sizeof(tbb));
int iString = m_mytoolbar.GetToolBarCtrl().AddStrings(_T("About"));
tbb.iString = iString;
tbb.fsState = TBSTATE_ENABLED;
tbb.fsStyle = TBSTYLE_AUTOSIZE;
tbb.iBitmap = 0;
tbb.idCommand = ID_ABOUT;
tbb.dwData = 0;
VERIFY(m_mytoolbar.GetToolBarCtrl().AddButtons(1, &tbb));

I created a toolbar used TBBUTTONs.But I found that I can't get the button text.

I used GetString and GetButtonText. But the compiler said that they were all undeclared.

What's wrong?
Thank you!

Use

CToolBarCtrl::GetButtonInfo::GetButtonInfo( int nID, TBBUTTONINFO* bbi );

it's bbi pointer contain the Button text Information!

Take a look at the CToolBarCtrl Class Members[^] topic in the MSDN. The GetButton member returns information about buttons. It doesn't look like any of the members return the text assigned to a button directly. I have a feeling it's simpler to just remember the text you assign when you create the control.

I have used DialogBar in my application on which i have few Dropdown listbox,
i dynamically create and destroy the DlgBar depending the option selected
by the user.
The problem is that the DlgBar is not visible when i creat it ,
i tried
AfxGetMainWnd()->RedrawWindow();
AfxGetMainWnd()->Invalidate (TRUE);
But it donot work .............

When i minimise and maximise the application then i can see the DlgBar
by using this code.

AfxGetMainWnd()->ShowWindow(SW_MINIMIZE);
AfxGetMainWnd()->ShowWindow(SW_MAXIMIZE);

Can anyone point out what i am missing .

I'll assume you mean a control bar.

You could try: CFrameWnd::ShowControlBar(CControlBar* pBar, BOOL bShow, BOOL bDelay);

Whoops!

A Dialog bar is derived from a control bar, so ShowControlBar is probably the corrent function to use.

error C2039: 'ShowControlBar' : is not a member of 'CDialogBar'

its not the member of the DlgBar class

Can u tell me the way that will Repaint the
Main window in any conditon .
I think i will have to try that because when i
minmise and maxime the mainwindow the dlgbar
show its presence .
AfxGetMainWnd()->RedrawWindow();
AfxGetMainWnd()->Invalidate (TRUE);

AfxGetMainWnd()->UpdateWindow ();
this->PostMessage (WM_ERASEBKGND ); this dont work

I have already tried this things;

ShowControlBar() is a member of CFrameWnd from which your main frame window is derived. Therefore you would probably call it like this:
AfxGetMainWnd()->ShowControlBar((CControlBar*)pMyDlgBar,TRUE,0);

Why? Because CDialogBar is derived from CControlBar.

vikas amin wrote:

First should call Invalidate() before you call RedrawWindow().

AfxGetMainWnd()->Invalidate(); // invalidate main frame
AfxGetMainWnd()->RedrawWindow(); // do not wait, redraw now

When dealing with control bars and dialog bars this might help:

// Force MFC to compute postion of docked bar(s)
AfxGetMainWnd()->RecalcLayout();
