Hi,
I want to develop an application (under Win98) which
receives a call if someone connects and then send some files from a directory to the one who has connected.
Please help

Does this design make any sense?
1. Using TCP/IP protocol.
2. run a server app on your PC, which monitor a predefined port all the time, to see if there is any request of file transfer.
3. on the other end of the link, run a client-like app, which tries to connect to your PC via that predefined port. Once connected, receive the file. After file is received in full, disconnect.
|
|
|
|
|
and if your server speaks HTTP (default listening port is 80), you do not even need to write a client.

I'm trying to fix a problem with the Windows Explorer Shell Context menu which I use in my app (ED). To be specific the "Send To" menu doesn't work.
I've been having a look at TrackItemIDContextMenu() in the "ITEMIDLIST management library" and "Send To" doesn't work there either. See this post..
I've also looked at Oz Solomonovich's WndTabs code which implements a "Shell Context" menu, which works but has some problems. It is missing any Folder items from the "Send To" menu, and "Open with" is broken, at least on WinXP pro. I've just reported these issues to Oz.
If possible I'd prefer to use the "Send To" menu as is, rather than Oz's code which creates its own "Send To" and "Open with" menus.
As Oz points out in ShellContextMenu.cpp "Send To" is a real pain. Hear brick wall.

You are talking about "SendTo" and "OpenWith" and these are 2
different things.
"OpenWith" is implemented as a contextmenu extension so it can be
reused.
You have to implement IContextMenu3 for it to work though.
The "SendTo" you have to build yourself, just enum the contents using
SHGetSpecialFolderLocation() with CSIDL_SENDTO.

I update myself a little.
For "sendto" use
SHCONTF_FOLDERS|SHCONTF_NONFOLDERS
with the IShellFolder::Enumbjects() to get all items.
For "OpenWith", create the extension, query for IContextMenu2
and call IContextMenu2::HanldeMenuMsg() where appropriate.
(to get submenu for 2000/XP to work)

Part 3
Forgot the "fun" part to actually get something to
happen when you select something in the "SendTo" menu.
You have to.
Bind to the folder.
Query for IDropTarget
Create a IDataOBject with the stuff you want to send.
Call IDropTarget->DragEnter() and Drop().
Come to think of it, you probably want to operate on a normal
filesystem file.
Then do
GetDeskttopFolder()
ParseDisplayName() with path to file
Bind to the resulting pidl
call GetUIObejectOf with IID_IContextMenu
and then you should get the normal explorer menu

Hi Magnus,
It would be great if you could put all this together into a complete working sample.;) Adding it to TrackItemIDContextMenu() would be terrific.

That might be a good idea, but i dont have the time to
do that right now.
Anyway as i wrote in the last part, if you want to
display the menu for a normal filesystem file you
dont have to bother with all this stuff.
Just ask the explorer to create it for you.
IShellFolder::GetUIObjectOf( IID_IContextMenu ) and you will get
it.
(you still have to call HandleMenuMsg() for the OpenWith menu to work ok)

Yes I know the feeling only too well.

Are you talking about the "Send To" menu here? That is all I'm trying to get working now.

Yes, and now it's the World Cup to, so everything else have to wait.

No, i tought you wanted the complete meny as it looks in the explorer.
If it's only the "SendTo" you want i think you have to do it the hard way.

Yes that is what I'm doing, but I can't execute any "Send To" menu choices. "Send To" Menu items all have the same ID. ie. TrackPopupMenu() returns the same value regardless of which "Send To" menu item you choose.
PS. I do want the entire Explorer Menu, not just "Send To".

You shouldn't have to care about the id you get back, just pass it to
IContextMenu::InvokeCommand()
(It does sound a bit strange that you get the same ID though)
/Magnus
|
|
|
|
|
You can't use IContextMenu::InvokeCommand() for "Send To" selections. If you pass the "Send To" ID (which is always the same) Windows crashes your app. You need to use a drag & drop interface, but I can't see how to do that because I can't find out what was selected from the menu.
I'm working on building me own menu now, but I can't get and drives listed. eg. "3 1/2 Floppy, .."

I can't seem to get the floppy listed either at a closer look, either
the flags to EnumObjects() are wrong, or windows add the floppy in addition to what is in the sendto folder. (I guess the later is correct...but who knows)
/Magnus
|
|
|
|
|
Did a little testprog and got the same effect you did.
Eg. i get the same ID back no mather what i choose in the sendto menu.
But passing that id to InvokeCommand() does trigger the right selection.
(dont know what kind of voodoo happens behind the back)
Maybe it works differently on different windows version.
(I run XP and IE6)

Thanks for your reply.
Yes you are right and I have "Open With" working ok, but even that needs some tricks to display correctly, I assume because it has bitmaps and is owner drawn.
Magnus H wrote:

Yes that's how WndTabs works. And to execute a "Send To" menu item it uses drag & drop code. This all seems quite complex, especially seeing that I can get the "Send To" menu displayed ok without iterating CSIDL_SENDTO, display the OD bitmaps etc, I just can't find out how to execute the selected menu item.
Do you know how to find out about "Send To|Drive/Folder" items iterating CSIDL_SENDTO?

Hi,
If you could help that would be great.
I am trying to make changes to a html page using IMarkupSevices and IHTMLElement.
I get the document, create the IMarkupServices and make the change. I can see the change in the HTML page but when I come to save the changes the original page is saved to file NOT the changes I have made.
Here are the code snipets.
The html document is from a CHTMLView class
////////////////////////////////////////////
//Create and make the change to HTMLDocument
IHTMLDocument2 *pDoc;
IDispatch* pDisp = GetHtmlDocument();
HRESULT hr;
hr = pDisp->QueryInterface( IID_IHTMLDocument2, (void**)&pDoc );
if (pDoc)
{
CComQIPtr<imarkupservices, &iid_imarkupservices=""> pMS;
pMS = pDoc;
if (pMS)
{
CComPtr<imarkuppointer> pMkStart, pMkFinish;
pMS->CreateMarkupPointer(&pMkStart);
pMS->CreateMarkupPointer(&pMkFinish);
IHTMLElement* pElement;
LastPara( &pElement ); // returns the last element in the document
if( pElement )
{
pMkStart->MoveAdjacentToElement(pElement, ELEM_ADJ_BeforeBegin );
pMkFinish->MoveAdjacentToElement(pElement, ELEM_ADJ_BeforeBegin );
}
pElement->Release();
IHTMLElement *pNewElement;
OLECHAR id[] = OLESTR("id=anID");
pMS->CreateElement(TAGID_P, id, (IHTMLElement**) &pNewElement);
pMS->InsertElement(pNewElement, pMkStart, pMkFinish);
pNewElement->Release();
OLECHAR* text = L"Text to add";
pMS->InsertText(text, -1, pMkStart );
}
pDoc->Release();
}
////////////////////////////////////////////
//Save the document
IHTMLDocument2 *pDoc = NULL;
IDispatch* pDisp = GetHtmlDocument();
HRESULT hr;
hr = pDisp->QueryInterface( IID_IHTMLDocument2, (void**)&pDoc );
if (pDoc)
{
CComPtr<ipersistfile> pPersistFile;
hr = pDoc->QueryInterface(IID_IPersistFile, (void**) &pPersistFile);
if(! FAILED(hr) )
{
CString csPath = "C:\\Temp\\test.htm";
MAKE_WIDEPTR_FROMANSI(wszCodeFile, csPath.GetBuffer(csPath.GetLength()));
pPersistFile->Save(wszCodeFile, TRUE);
if ( SUCCEEDED(hr) )
{
hr = pPersistFile->SaveCompleted(wszCodeFile);
}
pDoc->Release();
}
}

Hi,
I have made a connection using TAPI, now can i use Winsock functions and send and receive data using that
Sameer

I think you should be using RAS API instead (see RasDial and friends), which establishes an IP channel thru a modem connection. TAPI is usually restrained to handle link-level connections, not IP stuff.

Hi,
Can you suggest some site or example. Actually i have a

I am newly learning windows programming. I am trying to create a sort of simple application. When I try and link my project I get an error reading - fatal error RC1004: unexpected end of file found
I am not sure how to deal with this. Any suggections? The error stems from the header file:
// define for the application icon
#define ICON_T3DX 100
// define for the application cursor
#define CURSOR_CROSSHAIR 200
// define for the application music
#define SOUND_ID_MUSIC 1
// defines for the top level menu OPTIONS
#define MENU_OPTIONS_ID_PRINT 1000
#define MENU_OPTIONS_ID_EXIT 1001
// defines for the top level menu HELP
#define MENU_HELP_ABOUT 2000
#define MENU_HELP_INSTRUCTIONS 2001
I am using the header to help with the implementation of resources.
If anyone can help me resolve this error, that would be great.
Thanks a lot!!!
