I created a context menu and displayed it using TrackPopupMenu. I do not use TPM_RETURNCMD. My application window receives the result of user selection.
It works fine if I select/click some menu item - the window receives message for the given menu item. However if I cancel the context menu (hit Esc or click somewhere else) I do not receive any message. Is there any mechanism to catch context menu cancel event?
Another question, how to determine if a context menu (CMenu) is active and displayed?
Thanks,
Abyss

TrackPopupMenu will return 0 if user cancels the menu.

If you call the TrackPopupMenu, the thread is blocked at that statement as long as the menu is displayed. So from where you want to know the state of menu?

If I call TrackPopupMenu with TPM_RETURNCMD flag then the thread is blocked and I can check the return value. However I do not use the TPM_RETURNCMD flag which cause that the TrackPopupMenu creates the context menu and immediately exits. The menu is still active and sending messages to the window. That is why I can't check the return flag because it just say that the menu has been created.

I dont think so. please try putting a messagebox in the next line after the TrackPopupMenu() and see whether it is coming or not.

Uff, you are right. I put a breakpoint right after the TrackPopupMenu call and it returned only after the menu was closed. Meanwhile the WinAPI send notification to the window.
I do not understand why I did not try this?! 
Many thanks,
Abyss

Only if the TPM_RETURNCMD is specified. If not it will return the success or failure status.
See the MSDN documentaion.
If you specify TPM_RETURNCMD in the fuFlags parameter, the return value is the menu-item identifier of the item that the user selected. If the user cancels the menu without making a selection, or if an error occurs, then the return value is 0.
If you do not specify TPM_RETURNCMD in the fuFlags parameter, the return value is nonzero if the function succeeds and 0 if it fails. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

The list control width is changed in OnNcCalcSize for placing a vertical scroll bar having larger width than normal scroll bar.Then the last column is clipped.
see the code portion below:
void CustomListCtrl::OnNcCalcSize( BOOL bCalcValidRects_i, NCCALCSIZE_PARAMS FAR* lpncsp_i )
{
CListCtrl::OnNcCalcSize( bCalcValidRects_i, lpncsp_i );
DWORD dwStyle = GetWindowLong( m_hWnd, GWL_STYLE );
bool bVScroll = ( WS_VSCROLL == ( dwStyle & WS_VSCROLL ));
if( bVScroll )
{
lpncsp_i->rgrc[0].right -= ( nScrollbarSize - GetSystemMetrics( SM_CXVSCROLL ));
}
}
Actually scroll bars are appearing at correct position but the contents of the last column is clipped.
please help me...
thanks in advance....

Set the Language as "C/C++" in the "Source File Properties". You will get it by right clicking the editor and select the "Properties".

the editor does not contains a "Properties" option on context menu.
i tried "view->properties" but property panel contains nothing.

I am sorry, I said about VC6. I am not so sure about how to do it in VC7.

I only have VC2005 right now. I think that VC2003 and VC2005's IDEs are very much similar.

Hmm, ".cpp" should be handled by default by Visual Studio. Are you sure you have installed the C++ component of Visual Studio?
You can always try running the VS installer and doing a repair...
Just my two cents.

Hello,
Is there away to implement a preprocessor macro that would generate a build date in the style of UNIX timestamp (like 20080103 etc.). It would be helpful to print this kind of timestamp into program's About box or include it into program's version number. I know there is __DATE__, but this outputs a different format.
Cheers

__DATE__ is what you need. Re-arranging string format won't be such a difficult task.

You post the same yesterday. I already answered asking you for more details. Could you please be so kind to elaborate a bit?
