Hi, many thanks for your reply.
I tried the rgn method, and finally got this code working:
hOrgRgn=CreateRectRgn(0,0,0,0);
GetWindowRgn(hWnd, hOrgRgn);
hRectRgn = CreateRectRgn(50, 10, 200, 200);
hResultRgn=CreateRectRgn(0,0,0,0);
CombineRgn(hResultRgn, hOrgRgn, hRectRgn, RGN_XOR);//RGN_DIFF); //rgn_diff makes no difference
SetWindowRgn(hWnd, hResultRgn,TRUE);
But unfortunately, this does exactly the *opposite* of what I want. This cuts out a square from the middle of the window, but it only shows the cut out square and not the rest of the window; I want to show the window with a square hole in the middle. I've tried swapping around "hOrgRgn" and "hRectRgn" in CombineRgn(), but it makes no difference.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Again, many thanks,
Keith

// get screen coordinates
RECT OrgRect;
GetWindowRect(hWnd, &OrgRect);
POINT ptLT, ptRB;
ptLT.x = OrgRect.left;
ptLT.y = OrgRect.top;
ptRB.x = OrgRect.right;
ptRB.y = OrgRect.bottom;
// convert to client
ScreenToClient(hWnd, &ptLT);
ScreenToClient(hWnd, &ptRB);
// convert from client area to entire window area
ptRB.x -= ptLT.x;
ptRB.y -= ptLT.y;
ptLT.x -= ptLT.x;
ptLT.y -= ptLT.y;
// create new region for window
HRGN hNewRgn = CreateRectRgn(ptLT.x, ptLT.y, ptRB.x, ptRB.y);
// "hole" region
HRGN hRectRgn = CreateRectRgn(ptLT.x+50, ptLT.y+50, ptRB.x-50, ptRB.y-50);
// combine them
HRGN hResultRgn = CreateRectRgn(0, 0, 0, 0);
CombineRgn(hResultRgn, hNewRgn, hRectRgn, RGN_DIFF);
SetWindowRgn(hWnd, hResultRgn, TRUE);
this one works for sure

After downloading a very large program, I noticed ALL its files (both '.h' and '.cpp') were "Read Only". Is there a way I can uncheck ALL the files at once (from their "Read Only" status), rather than uncheck them one by one?
Secondly, I noticed even though the program compiled and linked with 0 errors, 0 warnings, and it works fine, NONE of its files could be seen in ClassView!! NONE!!
All its resources files could be seen, and all its FileView files could be seen, but NOTHING available in ClassView.
Is there some way I can get ClassView to show the class layout of the files too?
Thanks.

This is probably because the files were in Visual Source Safe or something like that...

Yup, in explorer select all the files (Ctrl+A) and get the properties (Alt+Enter), then uncheck the Read only box

Yup, removing the read only attribute should do this.
Hope this helps...

Hi
I'm tying to make a program with lot's of line drawing. I've use
CClientDC dc(this);
CView::OnPrepareDC(&dc);
in my functions to draw those lines (I put metafile in the OnDraw()function). Somehow I was running out of resources when I execute the program. Is it because I've declared too many CDC object? Can somebody tell me what might be wrong here? Should I put all those line drawing in the OnDraw() function instead?

Yes. Do you use CreateSolidBrush or CreatePen or something alike? If you do, check up that you release all GDI objects (pen, brush, etc.) after painting.

What if i jush use a simple constructor like
CPen BluePen( PS_SOLID, 0, COLOR_BLUE) what should i do?

select it into a DC, grab the pen returned when you do so, and make sure you put the old pen back into the DC before deleting it.

Hi I started five processes from a console program. Now i want to monitor these processes and show how many of them are still running every second. So how do i know the state of these processes? Here are my code:
[code]
while (WaitForMultipleObjects(5, proHandle, TRUE, 1000) == WAIT_TIMEOUT);
{
for(i = 0; i <5; i++)
{
if(proHandle[i] ==0)
runningProcess--;
}
printf(" %d ", runningProcess);
}
[/code]

Have a look at GetExitCodeProcess.
|
|
|
|
|
But it doesn't seem to work!! Does the following piece of code look alright ? Thanks
while (WaitForMultipleObjects(5, proHandle, TRUE, 1000) == WAIT_TIMEOUT);
{
for(i = 0; i <5; i++)
{
if(!GetExitCodeProcess(proHandle[i], &status[i]))
cerr << "GetExitCodeProccess Fail" << endl;
if(status[i] != STILL_ACTIVE )
runningProcess--;
}
printf(" %d ", runningProcess);
}

No. You have a spurious semicolon after the while condition.

After running the SQL query, we got rewsults the ADO recordset object. How can we retrieve the total number of records present in recordset object.
|
|
|
|
|
By searching the forums maybe? This was answered just a couple of days ago...
Anyway, the record count (rs.Count) usually isn't valid until EOF has been seen,
count reports the current number of seen records.
|
|
|
|
|
If you are using static or keyset cursor then the recordset count
you get from the property 'RecordCount" is valid
else you need to go from record to record manually
and then use the property.

Does anyone know how to detect if a service is running ?

;m_hWnd is other application listview's handle
;I want to simulate mouse double click on the item
;But it don't work,why?
;I doubt that the parent's handle is not correct,
;But I try all its parent,it don't work too,someone can tell me why?
memset((void*)&view,0,sizeof(NMLISTVIEW));
HWND hParent=::GetParent(m_hWnd);
view.iItem=0;
view.iSubItem=0;
view.hdr.code=NM_DBLCLK;
view.hdr.hwndFrom=m_hWnd;
view.hdr.idFrom=::GetDlgCtrlID(m_hWnd);
int code;
code=::SendMessage(hParent,WM_NOTIFY,view.hdr.idFrom,(LPARAM )&view);
Hi

The NMLISTVIEW struct is in your process space, the other app can't see it. Use one of the APIs designed for this purpose, mouse_event or SendInput.

I have a list box which I would like to include a CEdit control to alow easy editing of fields.
So far I have embeded(composition) a CEdit control in the CListBox class and have created it in PreSubclassWindow and made it invisible. When you double click on the item the CEdit becomes visible...and when you click else where its hidden... Easy...
However I need to capture WM_SETFOCUS && WM_KILLFOCUS && WM_KEYDOWN (Return key) of the CEdit control inorder to know when to copy the contents from the CEdit control to the list item currently indexed.
I have tried:
OnCommand
WndProc
OnParentNotify
I'm doing something wrong or this is not how this is accomplished...I thought I could subclass the CEdit control with a custom WndProc, but this would require a static or global function and I won't be able to call the GetText/SetText functions of my listbox...(It's actually a custom control i've designed from scratch, not a windows LISTBOX).
Anyways...how would I go abouts acommplishing what I want...???
Thanx

Use CListCtrl not CListBox, CListCtrl supports in place-editing: LVM_EDITLABEL style
VOTD: " Yet it was the Lord 's will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes his life a guilt offering, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. 11 After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light of life and be satisfied ; by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities." - Isa 53:10-11 (NIV)

Try
Declaring an instance of the window

And then show the window
dlgDialogToOpen.DoModal();
In the buttons OnBnClicked Event
