Argh. Not topmost message boxes. I hate them. What if the user wants to switch away from your application? They shouldn't be forced to close some silly message box just to use another application.

Yeah, your probably right. We should let the important message linger somewhere behind all those other windows. I always love it when I'm trying to close my windows and a stray message box is hiding behind the others keeping me from closing my app until I figure out that there is a modal messagebox hidden somewhere.

Thankyou for deliberately twisting my words. I specifically said "to use another application"
Message boxes should be on top of all the other windows in your application. They should not be on top of every other application in the system unless they are informing the user of something that affects the entire system, not just your application.

It has been a couple of days as I am trying to emulate Ctrl-Alt-Del action on Windows NT.
It turns out that there is no any API similar to 'LockWorkStation' supported in Windows 2000/XP.
Recently I found out that there is one undocumented function in User32.dll named 'LockWindowStation'. Does anybody know how I can make use of it? Or does anybody know how can I emulate Ctrl-Alt-Del on Windows NT at all?
Thank You in advance.

I think 'LockWorkStation' supported in windows 2000/xp,'emulate'? what's mean? Is forbid Ctrl-Alt-Del?if you will forbid Ctrl-Alt-Del,that's easy. if you are imitative of the login interface of win2000/xp, you can replace file "gina.dll" to your own gina.dll

Hello,
I want to implement XP Visual Styles for a MFC DLL. I've read many infos about it in the web but I have still problems.
So what I have done:
resource.h
#define MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID 2
I imported a new resource with the type 24 as MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID. So the .rc file looks like:
MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID 24 MOVEABLE PURE "res\\MyDlgDll.dll.manifest"
stdafx.h
#define ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED 1
compiler otion:
/D "ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED"
When I build the project with VC8 it works fine: The main application can have the visual styles disabled while the DLL always uses XP styles.
But I must build the DLL with VC6 and this doesn't work. I have installed the newest Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 where I can see in commctrl.h the #if def section for the ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED stuff.
I have adjusted the VC6 path to the new include dirc of the platform SDK. But I still use the old VC6 libs because the plaform SDK has no X86 builds of the LIBs.
Maybe the problem is the linking of my dll fo mfc42? (When I comile with VC8 the dll is linked mfc80).
Can someone help me?

When I go to set break point in my code , I am facing this error message from IDE.
“ One or more breakpoints cannot be set and have been disabled. Execution will stop at the beginning of the program.”
There is no break point in my code.
How to solve this problem ?

This problem happens with MSVC when you place a BP and try to debug the program but the module that contains the BP isn't loaded yet. All you can really do is wait for the module to be loaded then re-insert the BP or use WinDBG (or another debugger which) allows you to place breakpoints in modules which are not yet loaded.

It's possible that your source code may not be in sync with your binaries. Try rebuilding the entire project (esp. any libraries or DLLs you link with) and see if that helps.

Hello!
I want to write a program that releases files that are in use by something I don't know...
Actually, I don't know where to start... If someone could help, I would be very thankful...
Thanks in advance!

check for CTL_E_FILEALREADYOPEN.
If the file is already open you would need to create a custom method for
CUSTOM_CTL_SCODE and then you can release the file you intend to use.
May be this can help you.

The problem appears not to be due to the formating because when I use stop points to
print the value during debug I got the same problem: -1.#indo

fprintf (f_ptr5, "%s %i \n", "testor#", m_p_testor_no+1);
