I want to use the CListCtrl's LVS_REPORT ,but I have no idea in using the CListCtrl,anyone could give me a sample or the setps? I could not understand the MSDN 's .Thank .

Well, if you already have your list control on your dialog, those are the steps: (I suppose that m_wndList is the CListCtrl

m_wndList.ModifyStyle(0, LVS_REPORT); //see CListCtrl::Create for other styles

<font color=green>//now have to add at least on column. We'll add 2 columns</font>
m_wndList.InsertColumn(0, "My name");
m_wndList.InsertColumn(1, "My phone");
<br>
<font color=green>//now we can add items, one after another.
//I use GetItemsCount to be sure that new items added at the end of list
//if you want to add at the beginning, just use 0 (zero) instead</font>
int nItem = m_wndList.InsertItem(m_wndList.GetItemsCount(), "Philip Patrick");
m_wndList.SetItem(nItem, 1, "111-111-222222");

That's all Smile | :)

How to replace last line of a file?

Jon Taylor26-Jul-02 22:14

I'm working on an app that dumps loads of trace information to a file, as XML:

<log>
<message>
....
</message>
</log>

Now, when the app closes I write "</log>" as the last line. However, the next time the app is run, I want to append to this file, which means I must remove that last line. (It's the XML "root node" Smile | :)

)

Now, I know I can rename the file, re-parse it and re-write it etc but these log files reach 10's of Mb in size, so it takes too long to do that.

So I want to over-write the last line with some new text instead. I seem to remember doing this using the C standard library in the dim and distant past, but can I do this using the C++ library?!! Mad | :mad:

I've tried with the <fstream> library, and seekp() & tellp() but am getting a bit unstuck Unsure | :~

Any ideas anyone?

Open the file using CreateFile. Now use SetFilePointer with the FILE_END flag. Now call SetFilePointer with FILE_CURRENT and use -8 as the lDistanceToMove value. Thus it moves back 8 bytes (</log>\r\n). If you have only a \n, then put -7 as lDistanceToMove. Now write your stuff and close the file.

i think a slightly more robust way would be to read the last 100 bytes into memory and find the string and calc its offset and use that when seeking the file position ... unicode chars and whatnots might screw u up if u hard code the sizes into the algorithm

hi,

If you're keen on using the C++ library, u could do this with fstream's ::seekg to seek to the end(ios::end) minus the offset which is calculated. The offset would be calculated using sizeof(string). Specify the offset in (-)ve. Now you can write the present contents from this location.

P.S. Open the file in binary mode.

hope this helps,
Sharad

So I've got this nifty CFileDialog-extended class that doesn't use the OFN_EXPLORER flag. I need to check the extension the user selected, so to do that, I look at the "cmb1" control (well, also some other Explorer-style control identifiers)

So everything was going well and good, until I found an article on how to allow CFileDialog-derived classes to use the OFN_EXPLORER flag (basically make the OPENFILENAME size 12bytes larger). And now the ASSERT fails. Cry | :((

CWnd* pComboBox = GetParent()->GetDlgItem(cmb1);
ASSERT_VALID(pComboBox);

So, if anyone can point me in the right direction, or just outright solve this problem, that would be great! (I'd rather not have to use Win32 to solve this though)
Thanks in advance.

GDI Rotation Question

26-Jul-02 20:23

Hello all,

I am writing a little vector animation program and want to add rotation to my basic shapes. I have an algorithm that works ok... other than the fact that is shrinks the shape as it rotates! It works much better in OpenGL since its points are floating point. As far as I can tell, the shrinking is due to round off error, going from double to int. I am using the GDI in this case so I can't really do much about it. I am also programming this to run on both 9X and XP so no world transformations. I intend to make this method work for all gdi type basic shapes it is only working (appropriately) with the shapes that are invariant under rotation, the Polyxxxx shapes.

So, can anyone verify my diagnosis or point out other problems? Moreover, can anyone suggest a... less destructive way to rotate?

Thanks alot
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
int CShape::Rotate(int nAngle) // thar she be!
{
double dAngle = -nAngle * DEG_TO_RAD,
tX, tY, tX2, tY2;

for(int i = 0; i < m_aSourcePoints.GetSize(); i++)
{
tX = m_aPoints[i].x - m_ptRotate.x;
tY = m_aPoints[i].y - m_ptRotate.y;

tX2 = (int)((tX*cos(dAngle))-(tY*sin(dAngle)))+m_ptRotate.x;
tY2 = (int)((tX*sin(dAngle))+(tY*cos(dAngle)))+m_ptRotate.y;

//round the rotates point values
if((tX2 - floor(tX2)) >= 0.5) tX2 = ceil(tX2);
else tX2 = floor(tX2);
if((tY2 - floor(tY2)) >= 0.5) tY2 = ceil(tY2);
else tY2 = floor(tY2);

m_aPoints[i].x = tX2;
m_aPoints[i].y = tY2;
}
return ANI_OK;

if you want to color statics you can either use one of the enhanced static controls here (norm almonds is a good one mostly) or you can override the OnCtlColor() function in your dialog box (the WM_CTLCOLOR message)

and save CMYK color mode TIFF file
if I transform CMYK TIFF file to RGB file .
then color information will change .
(I use photoshop for testing)
So I want to dispose CMYK TIFF file in CMYK color mode .

get yourself a copy of LibTiff. with it, you can read and write the TIFF data directly.

Yes ,I have used Libtiff .
but it has the same quesiton .

Don't dispose correctly CMYK color mode Tiff Image

I need read and write CMYK color mode Tiff image .

and I have tested CXimage class that downloaded from http://www.codeproject.com/bitmap/cximage.asp
It supports Tiff file ,but there is a problem that It supports CMYK color mode tiff image.

and FreeImage Library ,download from
http://www.codetools.com/bitmap/graphicsuite.asp
it uses Libtiff library .but I find that there is the same problem of supporting CMYK color mode tiff file .

I don't know how to do

GetClientRect returns just the client area. GetWindowRect returns the area of the entire CWnd object. See API docs for CWnd.

I'm curious as to why you would do it that way. This is not a criticism, just a curiosity.

Why couldn't you just use CRect instead? Also, why are you using the globally scoped GetWindowRect rather than the CWnd GetWindowRect? Is there a benefit to doing it that way?

Here's the way I would do it:

int width = 0, height = 0;
CRect rect;
GetWindowRect( rect ); // Single parameter CWnd::GetWindowRect
width = rect.Width();
height = rect.Height();

Thanks.

I'm writing a Winsock application, and I heard that the only way to learn how is browse through the mucky muck of Winsock code. So that's what I did. I'm writing a program based upon Essam Mohammed El-nagar's and I got my program to interact with his server.

Trying to re-write his server is more difficult than I expected though. I've done everything noticable that he had, however whenever I run it, it gets a binding error. His does not. Is there some stupid little line of code that could fix this?

If you care enough to look into my source code I'll upload it on request. Thanks a bunch.

I have been trying to write a function in VC++ 6.0 on setting
the setprecision and setw in a function. This is roughly how I intend to do ..

my_set_function(int precision,int width)
{
setprecision(precision);
setwidth(width);
}

fstream io("abc.dat",ios::out);
.
.
double abc=1.234566,bcd=2.3456;
.
io << my_set_function(3,5) << abc << my_set_function(2,4) << bcd;

Since I want to set it for every variable, I hope to do it in a
neater and shorter manner.I know this code is not a functional one , hope someone have some idea of what I am trying to do?
