a button on Visual C++ to execute a pgm
If you just want some entry on the "IDE" of Visual C++ to execute other executables, here's the instruction:
1) Click the menu of VC++ [Tools]->[Customize...], you would see a dialog "Customize".
2) Choose the third tab "Tools", here it manages what you see in the sub-menu of Tools, like : "Register control", "Visual Component Manager", "Error lookup", etc.
3) There's a "New" button beside the "Delete" button, click it to add a new entry. Just give a name for what you want to execute, ex. "My application 003". Remember the sequence you add.
4) Then you see "Command", that's for specify the target path and filename.
5) Then you switch back to the first tab "Command", choose category "Tools", drag the icon hammer-N out. Thus you get your button!

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to change the frame layout dynamically. But I always get
ASSERT_VALID fails with illegal vtable pointer.
ASSERT_VALID fails with illegal vtable pointer.
HEAP[CADSplitterTest.exe]: Invalid allocation size - C02740D0 (exceeded 7ffdefff)
Warning: Uncaught exception in WindowProc (returning -1).
Warning: Window creation failed: GetLastError returns 0x00000578

by the second call trying a CreateView.
Here's my actual code:

HalfWidth = HalfHeight = ThirdWidth = ThirdHeight = 10;
switch (NewLayout)
{

m_Context.m_pNewViewClass = pContext->m_pNewViewClass;
m_Context.m_pCurrentDoc = pContext->m_pCurrentDoc;
m_Context.m_pNewDocTemplate= pContext->m_pNewDocTemplate;
m_Context.m_pLastView=NULL;
m_Context.m_pCurrentFrame=this;
m_ViewClass = pContext->m_pNewViewClass;
return SetViewLayout(m_ViewLayout, pContext);
}
Since this is my first trial with CSplitterWnd I don't find the error exactly (I'm afraid it's
my CRuntime Class - but I'm not sure.
Studying the examples brings no help because they only create the layout at generation.

Hi
I've been working the whole day on this problem, but I can't find a solution. 
Say I have char as follows:
const char * buf
This char may contain MORE than one \0 character. It may therefore look like "this\0isthewhole\0char"
What I want to do now is to replace all \0 with a "+" or something else.
How can I do it? So far I have this, which doesn't work:
while(*buf++)
{
if(*buf == '\0')
*packet = '+';
else
*packet = *buf;
*packet++;
}
regards

I might be wrong, but I can't see how your code could work because you don't have a marker to signify the end of the string. Strings like this (that contain nulls) typically contain two nulls at the end so that any code that needs to parse it can find the end. Therefore, in your code that sets this string, you simply need to ensure that it ends with two nulls. From there, the code is farily simple to parse it terminating only when back-to-back nulls have been encountered. Otherwise, you've got no way of knowing when the string ends.

OK, my fault, you're right..the string contains an \0 at the end.
But how do I get my code to work?

As I noted, with the string possibly containing a null character before the end, you need to ensure that you have two null characters at the end as the end-delimiter. From there, the code is very simply to parse the array until you hit that delimiter.

Assuming buf is terminated by two null characters, this will do:
for( ; ; ){
char ch=*buf++;
if(ch=='\0'){
*packet++='+';
if(*buff=='\0'){
*packet++='\0';
break;
}
}
else *packet++=ch;
}

Thanks, looks quite correct.
However, is it possible that this will result in an endless-loop if the string is not null-terminated?

If the string is not (doubly) null-terminated, this will result in the program trying to read beyond the string contents (which can cause a GPF or a meaningless output.)

Hi Gregor
When you have strings that contain nulls or strings that are not not null terminated, you can use the buffer manipulation functions instead of the string manipulation functions. Look them up on MSDN.

Hi.
I implemented a listview in a program. It works great, but not perfect. I have experience problems. First, the listview insert and display new item perfectly the if it was empty before insertion. For example.
// assume listview is empty
-----
CListView &lc = GetListCtrl();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
lc.InsertItem(0, "testing");
-----
The code above will insert ten "testing" strings into the listview control. CListView will update the window with the ten items. However, let say that I want to add more items. Here is a technique I use.
-----
CListView &lc = GetListCtrl();
lc.DeleteAllItems();
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
lc.InsertItem(i, "testing");
// inserting new lines
for (int j = i; i < 20; ++j)
lc.InsertItem(j, "new items");
Okay. The code above should work. However, sometimes CListView will not display the updated data. Again, in the example above, the program will not update the window with "new items." This seems to happen when I start to add a lot of items (100 or more). Is there some kind of a limit on the CListCtrl?
What is the proper way to add, remove, and clear a CListCtrl *and* properly redraw everything correctly?
Thanks,
Kuphryn

try doing
lc.UpdateWindow();
at the end of your loop
situations to avoid #37:
"good morning ... how many sugars do you take in your coffee ... and what was your name again?"
coming soon: situations to avoid #38: "...and the dog was there too?"

I'd assume this is a typo, but just in case: you should be comparing j not i to 20:
for (int j=i; j<20; ++j)

Try this for appending content to your list control:
for (int j=lc.GetItemCount(); (j < 20); ++j) {
lc.InsertItem (j, "A new item");
}

Thanks.
The reason it did not update the screen was because the window was focused. The solution is to redraw whenever the window is in focus.

 I am making a dialog based program with MFC and now I want to make a new class for node-management. But when I try to make one in classwizard it wants me to derive it from another class... but I don't want to. Or which class should I derive it from?
|
|
|
|
|
What about right click on the ClassView (TreeView at your left), New Class
and then make sure that the Combo named "Class Type" says Generic Class.
Hope this helps.

Hey...I'm making a program in Win API with <windows.h>...
I'm having a problem where my program will look fine in one resolution, like 800x600, but when I run the program in 640x480 or 1024x768, it's much bigger or smaller than it should be.
Is there some sort of way to get the screen size and size the window according to it? How can I do this? Help would be appreciated =)
Thanks - Dave
|
|
|
|
|
Sure. Do this to get the screen size:
RECT rectScreen;
VERIFY (GetWindowRect (GetDesktopWindow()), &rectScreen));
or
RECT rectScreen;
VERIFY (SystemParametersInfo (SPI_GETWORKAREA, 0, &rectScreen, 0));
