How to use large cursor as in PhotoShop?

As I know, cursor size is maximum to 32x32 pixels.
Pens in PhotoShop use very large cursors, how to do that?

Don't use a cursor, instead use a bitmap and draw it to the cursors location.

Take a look at this[^]. I used depends.exe and it seems that all they do is draw transparent bitmaps.

Call ctor in place of function argument

I have this line of code :

TargetList.push_back(CSTREAMS(*(SrcList[i])));

where CSTREAMS is a userdefined class and TargetList is a vector. So i'm just calling the constructor without the new keyword. I think this creates a temporary object, wich is copied by the vector and then destroeyd, so no memoryleak. Is this correct ?

resizing problem in a selfmade MDIChildFrame

Hi all,

I've written an MFC MDI application where I need an additional child frame to show other aspects of my data. So I derived a class from CMDIChildWnd and created the Icon, Accelerator and Menu. My view for this child frame is derived from CFormView and has a chart control an a button control.

I call/create the child frame by choosing a menu entry as follows:

<br />
void CmyApp::OnAnsichtnewView()<br />
{<br />
	// TODO: Fügen Sie hier Ihren Befehlsbehandlungscode ein.<br />
	CMainFrame *pFrame = STATIC_DOWNCAST(CMainFrame, m_pMainWnd);<br />
	pFrame->CreateNewChild(RUNTIME_CLASS(CmyChildFrm), IDR_myTYPE);<br />
<br />
	CRect cr;<br />
	pFrame->GetActiveFrame()->GetClientRect(cr);<br />
<br />
	CDocument *pDoc = pFrame->GetActiveDocument();<br />
	CRuntimeClass *pRTC = RUNTIME_CLASS(CmyFromView);<br />
	CCreateContext context;<br />
	context.m_pCurrentDoc = pDoc;<br />
	context.m_pNewViewClass = pRTC;<br />
	context.m_pLastView = NULL;<br />
<br />
	pFrame->GetActiveFrame()->CreateView(&context);<br />
}<br />

In my view class I've overwritten the OnSize method as follows:

<br />
void CmyFormView::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy)<br />
{<br />
	CFormView::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);<br />
<br />
	// TODO: Fügen Sie hier Ihren Meldungsbehandlungscode ein.<br />
	if(m_Chart.GetSafeHwnd() != NULL)<br />
	{<br />
		m_Chart.MoveWindow(0, 0, cx-30, cy);<br />
	        AfxMessageBox("Chart resized");<br />
	}<br />
	if(m_Button.GetSafeHwnd())<br />
        {<br />
		m_Button.MoveWindow(cx-30, 0, 30, 30);<br />
                AfxMessageBox("Button resized");<br />
        }<br />
        AfxMessageBox("Form resized");<br />
}<br />

When I run my programm and do a resize on my new child, I only get a "Form resized" MessageBox. So, obviously m_Chart and m_Button don't get a Hwnd but I don't know why.

Can anybody give me a hint on this?

Thanks,
Frank.

It seems your m_Button and m_Chart variables were not associated with child controls. Did you create your child controls with Create member, like m_Button.Create(. . .), or in a different way?

Maybe you should show us more details.

I used the dialog editor to create the controls. The chart control is an ActiveX control and the button is actually a checkbox control, which behaves like a button. In this editor I also assigned the member variables by a right click on the control and let the framework do the job. So the framework also created the DataExchange

void CmyFormView::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
	CFormView::DoDataExchange(pDX);
	DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_TCHART_Chart, m_Chart);
	DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_CHECK_Button, m_Button);
}

I created also another child frame in the same way but assigned it to a DocTemplate so that it starts when the programm start. Here I don't have resizing problems. So maybe I did something wrong in my OnAnsichtnewView part when the user creates the child frame. Maybe I have to pass a handle?

Thanks,
Frank.

Problem renaming ADO's EOF [modified]

Hi,

I have taken an ATL component and imported MSADO15.DLL to include ADO functionality

#import "C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\System\\ADO\\MSADO15.DLL" rename_namespace("ADOCust") rename("EOF","EndOfFile")
using namespace ADOCust;

I referred to the following link.

http://www.codeproject.com/atl/atl_ado.asp?df=100&forumid=1749&fr=51[^]

The problem Iam facing is when I try to check EndOfFile attribute for the recordset pointer using

VARIANT vartemp;
vartemp.vt = VT_BOOL;
vartemp.boolVal = FALSE;

vartemp.boolVal = pRecordset->EndOfFile;// not getting the value as TRUE even if the recordset pointer is at the end

Is there any problem with renaming EOF to EndOfFile in import statement??
I have all other functionalities working well.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks

The easiest and safest way is to follow the MFC guidelines - Extension DLLs[^]
The most important things are the initialization of the DLL (AfxInitExtensionModule), the
declaration of your classes (adding AFX_EXT_CLASS), and using the global defines in the app and
DLL projects (_AFXDLL defined in the app, _AFXEXT defined in the DLL).

Hi, I am using WH_KEYBOARD_LL global hook to detect keystrokes in any window. Is there any way to get handle of a window that is related to key stroke or handle of the window in which I am writing? Thanks in advance.

I think you can call HWND GetActiveWindow(VOID) inside your HOOK PROC, but I NEVER made a test about it.

Hi,
I need to display the available display resolution settings from monitor settigs not from display device driver.

I got the display device settings resolution by using EnumDisplaySettigs function.

Can anyone tell how to get the resolutions from Monitor?

I have tried to get Monitor Name from EnumDisplayDevices(API) and passed the same to EnumDisplaySettigns. Not Working|

awaiting your replies.

Hi,
The following code is not giving expected result for me.

I need display resolutions from the current monitor settings not from display device.

Problem is dispCurrent.DeviceName is not taken by the EnumDisplaySettings API.

Please tell me where i am going wrong.

int displayNumber=0;
DISPLAY_DEVICE dispDev, dispCurrent;
memset(&dispDev, 0, sizeof(dispDev));
memset(&dispCurrent, 0, sizeof(dispCurrent));
dispDev.cb = sizeof(DISPLAY_DEVICE);
dispCurrent.cb = sizeof(DISPLAY_DEVICE);
EnumDisplayDevices(NULL, displayNumber, &dispDev, 0);
while (EnumDisplayDevices(dispDev.DeviceName,displayNumber,&dispCurrent,0))
{
displayNumber++;
CString MonName = dispCurrent.DeviceName;
if ( (dispCurrent.StateFlags & DISPLAY_DEVICE_ATTACHED_TO_DESKTOP) == DISPLAY_DEVICE_ATTACHED_TO_DESKTOP)
{
// Get all modes and display them in a listbox
BOOL bRetVal;
CString sDevMode;
CString sDevModeCurr;
CString strRep = "x";
DEVMODE devmode;
DEVMODE devmodeCurr;
DWORD iMode =0;

do
{
bRetVal = EnumDisplaySettings((LPCTSTR)dispCurrent.DeviceName, iMode, &devmode);
iMode++;
if (bRetVal)
{
sDevMode.Format("%dx%d, %d bits %dhtz", devmode.dmPelsWidth,
devmode.dmPelsHeight, devmode.dmBitsPerPel,
devmode.dmDisplayFrequency);

m_sDispRes.AddString(sDevMode);
}
}
while(bRetVal);
}
}
