database schema design question

ppp00115-Nov-05 6:43

15-Nov-05 6:43

Hi,

I have two objects, both point to each other in OO.
e.g.
Class Father
{
private int id; //id of father
private Son son;
}
Class Son
{
private int id; //id of Son
private Father father;
}

so I need to have two tables in database as follow,

Table Father :
(id, SonId)

Table Son :
(id, FatherId)

The problem is, should I eliminate the one of the reference in one of the table, e.g.

Table Father :
(id)

Table Son :
(id, FatherId)

so I just have the fatherID in the son table.
But if I remove the sonID from the father table,
I need to join the two tables when I retrieve fathers
from the father table.
So what are the pros and cons of the two schema design ?

Thanks

If you keep the references in both the tables, you can improve the efficiency by eliminating joins. You can find all 'children' of a 'father' and vice versa by a simple query on a single table.
The down side however is an additional overhead in maintaining the redundant data consistently. You need to make sure to update the respective fields whenever any child is to be deleted or the other way. Just see what is preferable for your application, efficiency or simplicity...

do not show MFC Window

I am trying that my program does some task before calling MFC class:

#include <afxwin.h>

class MFC_Window :public CFrameWnd
{
public:
MFC_Window()
{
Create(NULL,_T("whatever"));
}
};

class MyApp :public CWinApp
{
MFC_Window *wnd;
public:
BOOL InitInstance()
{
wnd = new MFC_Window();
m_pMainWnd = wnd;
m_pMainWnd->ShowWindow(1);
return 1;
}
};

int main ()
{
// some tasks...

if (some tasks == true) MyApp theApp;
}

Calling MFC from main() does not work. Does anybody know how to do this? Or how to put the MFC as not visible?

Thanks,
Christian

Just for clarity, MFC is not a class nor is it callable.

What exactly is it that you are wanting to do prior to displaying any sort of window?

Deriving from CFrameWnd indicates that you are working on an application. Thus you'll not be able to use main().

If I understand u correctly u want to do things before showing the main window.
To do this u don't have to mangle with main(), WinMain() nor constructing MyApp yourself. All u have to do is put some code in MyApp::InitInstance() before the window creation/show.

Just to comment few other things:
First, the way u try to initialize MyApp is invalid syntax.
If u follow the MFC App Wizard, MyApp is created on the "global stack" - the standard library initializes it before calling main().
Second, u can track down MFC's WinMain (just look at the call stack) and alter it. But your code will not run there unless u compile MFC itself.

Thank you for your replies.

Yes, what I am trying to do is to do things before showing the main window, or not to show it at all. My programm enumerates NFC boards, and if it detects more than 1, a window should pop up and ask user to select one of them. If it only finds one board, the app should select that board and the window shouldnt pop up.

I tried to set the visible property to false, but nothing happened!?!? The only thing I can imagine is that the release build wont show the window, I dont know and didnt try it.

Thanks

Hi everybody,
I'am using the DrawText function to draw this text "p&m":
DrawText(_T("p&m"),LPRECT(CRect(0,0,100,100)),DT_LEFT);
but my problem is that the text on the screen appear with the 'm' underlined.

could someone help me!!

thanks.

Either double the & character, or use the DT_NOPREFIX flag (i.e. specify DT_LEFT | DT_NOPREFIX).

This feature is intended for use by various Windows functions to indicate accelerator keys for activating controls. Windows 2000 and higher, by default, hide the accelerator key indicators until the Alt key is pressed, so you may not have seen this behaviour.

What you are experiencing is windows' method of representing shortcuts. So what you have to do in order to get the text "p&m" is to use the folowing ampersand escape sequence:

DrawText(_T("p&&m"), LPRECT(CRect(0,0,100,100)), DT_LEFT);

For more details look up escape characters on msdn

VS6: Enabling breakpoints per thread

In Visual Studio 6, is it possible to enable breakpoints only for a certain thread? It is little annoying when the debugging context suddenly changes to another thread.

If it is not possible in Visual Studio 6, is it possible atleast in WinDbg?

thanks!

You can put conditions on breakpoints. If you have a variable that represents the active thread, you could use that.

how to retrieve a HANDLE from a pointer?

ewighell15-Nov-05 4:49

ewighell

15-Nov-05 4:49

many functions require parameters of type HANDLE. how to get it? take the following for instance:

CEdit *pEdit;
pEdit = new CEdit();
pEdit->Create(0,rect,this,IDC_EDIT1);
// how can I get a handle to the Edit window?
...
delete pEdit;

Thank you very much!!!

Use the GetSafeHwnd() method. However, why do you need it?

I want to send a message with the function SendMessage(), it seems that some of its parameters are of type HWND.
I want to send a BN_CLICKED message to the button m_bn1, which is of type CButton with the following code, but it seems does not work, where am I wrong?

SendMessage(BN_CLICKED,IDC_BUTTON1,(LPARAM)m_bn1.GetSafeHwnd());

Thank you very much!!!

First, you don't need to get the HWND. You can just call pEdit->SendMessage(msg, wparam, lparam).

But, it won't work in your case. BN_CLICKED is a notification send by the button to its parent, not the other way aroiund . And it's not a BN_CLICKED message, it's a WM_COMMAND message with BN_CLICKED encoded in its WPARAM parameter (see MSDN for details).

What do you want to accomplish?
