Bitmap Deconstruction (AKA: How to get pixel values from a file)

Hi all,

I'm looking for some snippets of code that show me how to get the individual pixel colors out of a bitmap or other graphic file format. So if it is given a file, it would find out what color each pixel is, and maybe output it to a text file or something.

Any ideas? This is for a really cool project for little kids, and I'm excited to get started. Any guidance would be great.

Thanks for your time,
Michael Fritzius

Using GetPixel[^] is an option. Also you can use ::LoadImage to load a bitmap from file.

You can use GDI+ for loading the images and use methods LockBits(..)/UnlockBits(..) to get access to pixel data. there are loads of application on CP to help you out few are

CoInitialize/CoUninitialize

Hello everyone,

I want to develop an automatic tool or manually using existing tool (e.g. WinDbg) to watch when CoInitialize/CoUninitialize is called. I suspect CoUninitialize is not called the same times as CoInitialize, and I want to get the call stack.

Any ideas or reference documents about how to do this?

(I do not have the full source codes, but I have symbol files. My current ideas is either to add to system level COM Runtime hook to monitor when the two functions are called and get stack trace if possible, or using WinDbg to monitor the two specific function calls -- but I do not know the command in WinDbg. Smile | :)

)

thanks in advance,
George

Two more comments,

1.

Previously I always use bm other than bp to set a break point. What are the differences between bp and bm?

2.

"~.;k" means?

Getting problem with ADO database connection for Excel

Hi,

I am getting problem in retrieving tables from Excel 8.0. For some Excel files it is working fine. But some files it is giving dupicate fine names with garbage values.
like :
'Const#Liens-Book#Page$'
'Const#Liens-Book#Page$'_
'Const#Liens-Book#Page$'Z_1590EFBF_96D2_4D24_A4C9_842D6034FE78_#
'Const#Liens-Book#Page$'Z_3AFA2892_C4CC_49E4_9288_7102C55DF3DE_#
'Const#Liens-Book#Page$'Z_7609B60E_2B6C_4DBB_8D3C_4D38EC883EBD_#'Const"

It should retrieve 'Const#Liens-Book#Page$' only but its giving this many table names and giving error message like "object or provider is not capable of performing requested operation"

I have written code in VC++. Is there any seetings i need to do for excel file.

I am placing the code below :

CoInitialize(NULL);
ADO::_ConnectionPtr g_Connection;
g_Connection.CreateInstance( __uuidof(ADO::Connection) );

strConnection.Format("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=D:\\test.xls;Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;");
g_Connection->Open( (LPCSTR)strConnection, "", "", ADO::adConnectUnspecified );

ADO::_RecordsetPtr recordset = g_Connection->OpenSchema( ADO::adSchemaTables );
CString strTableList;
while ( ! recordset->EndOfFile )
{
CString strTable = (LPCSTR)_bstr_t( recordset->Fields->GetItem( "TABLE_NAME" )->Value );
strTableList += strTable + "\n";
recordset->MoveNext();
}
AfxMessageBox( strTableList );
CString strColumnList;

recordset = g_Connection->OpenSchema( ADO::adSchemaColumns );
while ( ! recordset->EndOfFile )
{
CString strColumn = (LPCSTR)_bstr_t( recordset->Fields->GetItem( "COLUMN_NAME" )->Value );
strColumnList += strColumn;
recordset->MoveNext();
}
AfxMessageBox( strColumnList );

CoUninitialize();

Please help me for this issue. I am waiting for your reply.

WM_NEXTDLGCTL one control too far

Hi everybody,

i perform a PostMessage(WM_NEXTDLGCTL); and the focus is not set on the next
control but is set on the second next control.

Is there a special thing to know?

Big thanks

do you set the "tab stop" property to true for that control.
Note: If the next control is a list control and you are trying to do a TAB for setting the focus on that control that list SHOULD contain atleast one item before it shows that it gained focus
modified:The tab order for your window can be changed by pressing ctrl+d in resource view(ie design time)

Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

Thansk for your answer

The next control is a DatePickerWnd.
All controls have "TabStop" to TRUE.

If i press the TAB-Key on the control, then the focus steps on the (correct) next control.
But via WM_NEXTDLGCTL it steps 2 controls farer.
If i remove the WM_NEXTDLGCTL, the focus stays on the initial control.
And 2 WM_NEXTDLGCTL sets the focus indeed 4 controls farer D'Oh! | :doh:

Probably that's how you've set up the "Tab Order" in design time?

The Tab-Order is correct at designtime and during the execution of the application.
Pressing the Tab-Key navigates me correctly trough the view ...

Yes, but i doesn't work for me Sigh | :sigh:

A PostMessage(WM_KEYDOWN,(WPARAM)VK_TAB); sets the focus to the previous control
but with silly sideeffects (insertion bar is still in the initial textbox and the new taped characters are inserted in the new textbox D'Oh! | :doh:

)

Thanks anyway Smile | :)

You told me that you read the documentation:

If wParam is zero, the next control receives the focus; otherwise, the previous control with the WS_TABSTOP style receives the focus.

That was just for testing (in this case i use a WM_KEYDOWN and not a WM_NEXTDLGCTL Smile | :)

Try GetNextDlgTabItem(PrevWnd)->SetFocus().

BTW read the docs carefully on WM_NEXTDLGCTL. It has some detail associated with it.
