You have to be careful about doing that - you do not want to match the . or .. directories and assume that the directory is not empty.

Hi again!
I have another little problem that I cant seem to sort.
I have a Win32 app that I wish to set to the foreground on an event occurring. I have tried SetForegroundWindow(hWnd), but this doesnt seem to work. What does happen is that the minimized app flashes on the toolbar, before going a solid blue. What am I doing wrong?
The app is currently running on Win98 PC, but may need to run on a WinXP target machines, so it would be great if I could get a solution that does both!
Thanks for any help (again!)
Mike

Use SetWindowPos()
SetWindowPos( hWnd, HWND_TOP, 0,0,0,0, SWP_NOMOVE| SWP_NOSIZE )

Did you check the Remark section in MSDN for SetForegroundWindow(..)
There are certain limitations.. chk that out..

in Continuation with solution provided by DHANA, you have to call it again and again as it doesn't to make your window on top!

I think will work just try...!
DWORD dwMyProcessId,dwCurProcessId;
dwMyProcessId = ::GetWindowThreadProcessId( hWnd, 0 );
dwCurProcessId = ::GetWindowThreadProcessId( ::GetForegroundWindow(), 0 );
if ( dwMyProcessId != dwCurProcessId )
{
AttachThreadInput( dwCurProcessId,dwMyProcessId,TRUE );
}
::SetForegroundWindow( hWnd );

Thanks everyone - yet again!
Thanks esp to David for the link - tried the code and that sorted it
I did try the SetWindowPos(...), but this didnt seem to work. I did change the parameter HWND_TOP, to HWND_TOPMOST, and this sort of worked. The window stopped being minimized on the tool bar, but didnt get the focus. It also remained un-minimized(?), when other apps were clicked on.
Davids solution did exactly what I wanted. The reason behind doing this is that I have an old dos app running that uses up a lot of resources, when it has the focus. The win32 app outputs audio out of the soundcard,and if it doesnt have the focus, it causes delay and\or stuttering to occur. Once it has the focus, all is well with the world! By doing as David suggested, it causes the audio issue to go away!
Thanks again
Mike

Hi all, i have pop up messages same as in msn messenger "the user XXXX has logged in".
problem is that these dialogs (which inherites from CDialog) takes all the focus as soon as they popup. if i have in the main application a menu opened or i type something in an edit control, they immediately lose the focus
how can i fix that?
thanks in advanced

return FALSE instead of TRUE from OnInitDialog function of the Dialog Box!

Iwant to change any size of a window by the mouse. How can i set it???
|
|
|
|
|
see SetWindowPos() and MoveWindow()
|
|
|
|
|
you can use MoveWindowin WM_SIZE
|
|
|
|
|
Adding the correct window style (like WS_THICKFRAME) to the window will generally allow it to be sized via the mouse. Once it is sized by the user, you will have to reposition and resize any controls within that window yourself by handling the WS_SIZE message.
Things like SetWindowPos(...) and MoveWindow(...) allow you to change the size of a window/control in code, not by mouse.
Peace!

Can we read the pixel values of a text file and make a bitmap from that data.
Is there any way for this?
Thank you.

A text file has no pixel values, only text.
Do you mean that you want to take the contents, such as "Hello, World" and generate a bitmap image of that text using a particular font and size?

If you have already done this with Excel, how?
I ask because you might well be able to use the same technique with Word.
