Doh, I did not search for the single word! Thanks.
I was so elated to see those function calls, but alas the IShellFolderView interface is really deprecated and its suggested replacement (IFolderView/IFolderView2) does not have the functionality in question.
I can create a IFolderView object using both SHCreateShellFolderView and deprecated SHCreateShellFolderViewEx, but both return the IFolderView, not IShellFolderView. I do not see any references to a function that will instantiate that interface, only reference is:
"IShellFolderView is supported by the IShellView object that is returned from SHCreateShellFolderViewEx."
What is supported by???? It does not have the same member functions...

That means you can take your IShellView object, and query for an alternate interface of IShellFolderView.
This is without looking stuff up, and is no way valid code, but will at least point you in the right direction, I hope!
IShellView pShellView = SHCreateShellFolderViewEx (blah);
IShellFolderView *pSFolderView;
hr = pShellView->QueryInterface (IID_IShellFolderView, ..., (void **) &pSFolderView);
pShellView->Release ();
use pSFolderView...
pSFolderView->Release ();
Also, no error checking!
Good luck,
Iain.

Thanks Iain,
It's COM nomenclature. Now I know why I avoid COM at all costs. I flew with your post from email notification which did not show the example, so I hammered it out myself, but my platform SDK does not have IID_IShellFolderView defined (ShlObj.h 4/4/2005). As this is a deprecated interface, I tried the recommended interface (IFolderView) with structural success (It compiles and runs), but it unfortunately is not getting the information I need.
It has no Set... and the GetAutoArrange() always returns false so it is not reflecting the desktop value as I had hoped.
Thanks again for the interface language clarification.

I want to try to get my boss to upgrade to the newer visual studio 2005. We have been using visual c++ 6.0. What are the major benefits? Also what are the differences between the standard and professional visual studio?
How hard would it be to switch existing VC++ 6.0 projects to VC++ 2005?
Edit: I should add that I have only programmed in VC++ 6.0. I have never programmed with the .net framework.

Have you looked through Microsoft's site at all?

That all depends on how standard-compliant your code is.

yes but as far as i can tell, the only difference between standard and pro is the sql server. I don't see how it justifies the huge price difference, so I thought there must be more.
I am relatively new to windows programming, and I'm basically learning on my own from books and the web. Sorry if i'm asking very noobish questions. I'm pretty sure a lot of the features of the newer versions are too advanced for me anyway, so I wont be using it. The reason I want to upgrade is because some of the SDK's i want to use are for .NET.

That's possibly one of the biggest reasons to upgrade - if you intend to use anything .NET.

Check out the differences between SQL Server Express Edition and SQL Server Developer (Enterprise) Edition. There are a bunch.

Resolved, Thanks.
What are issues with these classes:
A.h
class A
{
class B
{
}
B m_b;
B* SomeFunc();
}
A.cpp
...
B* A::SomeFunc()
{
return &m_b;
}
...

No, thanks.
The problem resolved. I simplified a much more complex class to ask for help here, by doing so, I found the real problem that has nothing to do with this.
Anyway, thanks for your effort. A 5 is all I can do.

I just simplified the class.
Anyway, I found my problem, which does not depend to this demo sample. Thanks.

Hi all, I've been struggling with the WinAPI CreateProcess for some time now. I've googled/yahoo'ed all over to find a simple explanation on how to use it and i havnt found anything close to how to use it properly. I know it takes 10 parameters in order to use so says MSDN. But im still not finding a way to use it for something simply. Any help and or suggestions on the matter is greatly appreciated. Thanx in advance!
|
|
|
|
|
So the "example" provided in the MSDN online documentation is not "simple" enough? or you can't get it to work? or....???
|

You can pass NULL, 0, and/or FALSE for all the parameters except
lpApplicationName, lpStartupInfo, and lpProcessInformation.
That should simplify it

 Beyond words.
Why not show us what you've tried so we can see where you've gone astray?

Im having trouble with this.
<br />
#include <windows.h><br />
#include <iostream><br />
using namespace std;<br />
<br />
int main(i)<br />
{<br />
CreateProcess(("notpad.exe"),NULL,NULL,NULL,FALSE,0,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL);<br />
printf("Failed because: %s", GetLastError());<br />
<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />

What's this?

Should be:
printf("Failed because: %lu", GetLastError());

Is "notpad.exe" the app you want to run?
Also you need to pass something to those last two parameters, especially the
last one, since there's some handles returned that need to be freed.
STARTUPINFO StartupInfo;
memset(&StartupInfo, 0, sizeof(STARTUPINFO));
StartupInfo.cb = sizeof(STARTUPINFO);
PROCESS_INFORMATION ProcessInformation;
if (0 == ::CreateProcess(_T("C:\\Windows\\system32\\notepad.exe"),
NULL,
NULL,
NULL,
FALSE,
NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS,
NULL,
NULL,
&StartupInfo,
&ProcessInformation
))
{
TRACE1("Failed because: %lu", ::GetLastError());
}
else
{
::CloseHandle(ProcessInformation.hProcess);
::CloseHandle(ProcessInformation.hThread);
}

Hi for all
I'm developing a single MDI app. I have the following matter:
When I click the close button on the parent window, teorically it will send a WM_CLOSE and process the PostQuitMessage(0). But this is not occuring.
What I really want to know is how can I close and MDI app carrectly.
Look at the code below. This is the code of a class that I've create to create windows:
<br />
<br />
WPARAM TemplateWindow::MessageLoop()<br />
{<br />
while(!m_bQuit)<br />
{<br />
if(PeekMessage(&msg, m_hwnd, NULL, NULL, PM_REMOVE))<br />
{<br />
if(msg.message == WM_QUIT)<br />
{<br />
if(m_uiType == MDI)DestroyWindow(m_hwndFrame);<br />
m_bQuit = true;<br />
break;<br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
if(m_uiType == MDI)<br />
{<br />
if(!TranslateMDISysAccel(m_hwndFrame, &msg))<br />
{<br />
TranslateMessage(&msg);<br />
DispatchMessage(&msg);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
if(m_uiType == SDI)<br />
{<br />
TranslateMessage(&msg);<br />
DispatchMessage(&msg);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
else<br />
if(m_uiChildCount > 0)<br />
{<br />
SendMessage(childsInfo[0].hwnd, WM_PAINT, NULL, NULL);<br />
<br />
}<br />
SwapBuffers(m_hdc);<br />
}<br />
return msg.wParam;<br />
}<br />
This is my code in the callback of the main window:
<br />
LRESULT CALLBACK MainWindowCallback(HWND hwnd, UINT uiMessage, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)<br />
{<br />
HMENU hMainMenu;<br />
hMainMenu = CreateMenu();<br />
static int siRuler = IDM_NEWRULER, siText = IDM_NEWTEXT, siNodule = IDM_NEWNODULE, siPath = IDM_NEWRULERPATH;<br />
switch(uiMessage)<br />
{<br />
case WM_CREATE:<br />
{<br />
...<br />
break;<br />
}<br />
case WM_CLOSE:<br />
{<br />
delete TextMenu;<br />
delete RulerMenu;<br />
delete PathMenu;<br />
delete NoduleMenu;<br />
delete ProceedingMenu;<br />
delete ScreenShotMenu;<br />
PostQuitMessage(0);<br />
break;<br />
}<br />
...<br />
default: return DefFrameProc(hwnd, g_hwndClient, uiMessage, wParam, lParam);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
The WM_CLOSE message is processed, BUT the PostQuitMessage(0) not. It process some part of this function. I'm debugging the app and when it enters in this part:
7E419483 call 7E418860
The app doesn't process, it doesn't freeze, just doesn't continue to process other register.
Anyone can help.
