Hi,
I made a list box, and a button.

I want the button to do somthing if example: "Print" is selected. But i dont know how.

void CTestDlg::OnExe()
{
if ( ?? == "Print");
{
//Do somthing

}
}

The ?? is what i dont know what to put in, it must be somthing like: m_List == "Print"
But i tryed that. Smile | :)

Help is needed.

Thank you..

I think you'll find it's GetItemText(GetCurSel());

The outer gets the text and the inner returns the index of the selected item.

Can't get it to work, i did this:

void CMenuDlg::StartGame()
{
if (m_Games.GetCurSel("Tribes"));

{
//Do Somthing
}
}

Error:

C:\Dokumenter\C++\Menu\MenuDlg.cpp(180) : error C2660: 'GetCurSel' : function does not take 1 parameters
C:\Dokumenter\C++\Menu\MenuDlg.cpp(182) : warning C4390: ';' : empty controlled statement found; is this the intent?

Did i do somthing wrong??

Thanks

You want it to be:

void CMenuDlg::StartGame()
{
if (m_Games.GetLbText(m_Games.GetCurSel()) == "Tribes")
{
//Do Somthing
}
}

There ia an aletrnative (and possible easier approach). Since you are obviously using this as an application launcher, you coudl store the command line you are executing as m_Games's Item data. Something like teh following;

m_Games.SetItemData(m_Games.InsertItem("Tribes"), DWORD("c:\\program files\\tribes\\tribes.exe"));

then your start game function woudl look like:

CString strCommand = LPCSTR(m_Games.GetItemData(m_Games.GetCurSel()));

then call ShellExecute (or whatever you're using to launch the application) with strCommand.

Note - this post made before morning coffee and ius therefore subject to containing countless errors and typos.

I did what you did:

void CMenuDlg::StartGame()
{

if (m_Games.GetLbText(m_Games.GetCurSel()) == "Tribes");
{
//Do somthing
}

}

Error:
C:\Dokumenter\C++\Menu\MenuDlg.cpp(184) : error C2039: 'GetLbText' : is not a member of 'CListBox'
c:\programmer\microsoft visual studio\vc98\mfc\include\afxwin.h(2741) : see declaration of 'CListBox'

Dosn't GetLbText belong to a combo box??

Thank's

"Dosn't GetLbText belong to a combo box??"
Yeah it does...and didn't I say that that post was written before morning coffee? Smile | :)

And besides...what do you expect from free advice?

Make that m_Games.GetText(m_Games.GetCurSel()) and it shoudl work better.

Try www.usb.org and http://www.lvr.com/usb.htm

My next step would be to open up Copernic (www.copernic.com) and do a search for "USB development" etc..

Sorry I can't help any more...

Static class problem

30-Jan-01 7:06

I have a very annoying problem. I have two static classes, declared right after each other and somehow, I want them to be able to reach each other...

static class A : public Location
{
public:
Location *GetB { return &B; }
} A;

static class B : public Location
{
public:
Location *GetA { return &A; }
} B;

The code above is how I 'want' it to work.
Any help on this would be very appreciated.

First of all, let me say that I've never seen ANYONE declare a static class in the same manner as a struct typedef. I would recommend changing your code for clarity's sake, but that's now back to your question...

If you would like each class to access the other, I would recommend the following:

<br />
class A : public Location<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
static A instance;<br />
Location* GetB() { return &B::instance; };<br />
}<br />
<br />
class B : public Location<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
static B instance;<br />
Location* GetA() { return &A::instance; };<br />
}<br />

Hope this helps! (Basically, you create two singleton objects.) Wink | ;)

You need to forward-declare class B before the definition of class A. (And BTW, your naming is confusing - a class "A" and a variable "A" together is a no-no if you care about readability.)

class B;  // forward declaration
 
class A : public Location
{ ... } objectA;
 
class B: public Location
{ ... } objectB;

You have two options - maintain a list of copies to the entire document in different states, or maintain a list of actions that you can unperform.

hi,
I have been trying to include a template class into a CList object but i it does not seem to work. I have tried to put in this way in the "Population" class:

Typedef Chromosome<cgene> chromosome

CList<chromosome,chromosome> PopulationArray;

Is there any way to put a template class into another template class??

I appreciate your help. Thank you.

I'm not having problems inserting template classes in a CList:

template <class t="">
class Cell {
public :
T SetData(const T& t) {
T old = data;
data = t;
return old;
}
T GetData() const {
return data;
}
private :
T data;
};

CList<cell<int>, Cell<int> > lst;//NOTE--there *must* be a space between the right-most braces : > >
lst.

This should work fine. What error messages are you getting when you try this?

Thanks for your reply,

The error message that i've got is "no copy constructor to copy the data type Chromosome<cgene>".

For now i can't remember the complete message but i will put it in after i've copied the message.

Hi!!

I am required to develop a Windows NT Service EXE in my project. While reading through MSDN, I came across the "ATL Service EXE" option when developing ATL components.

Could anybody please tell me the the difference between the two?
Which option is preferrable?
What factors does this selection depend on?

Please help me as I am new to VC++!!!

Thanks & Regards,

String across DLL's

Hi,
I'm using a VB activeX dll for some string manipulatation stuff. This requires that from the client (VC) i pass strings to VB Dll. What datatype should I use? VB Variant seems to work good. From the client I'm using a CComBSTR to hold value.Ideally the data should be variant but is String also supported?
Thanks,
Amit.
