Nope, I tried that a couple of days ago but no luck. I've tried it on a couple of different servers and using different commands but didn't help 
Thanks for replying though

We are trying - unsuccessfully - to import classes form a DLL (build by others developpers)
They provided us the corresponding *.lib.
Can anybody tell me how we can ensure that the DLL do export this classes?
Thanks.

Use dependency walker - the class names will be mangled but you should be able to work them out. They should also have given you a header file. And last of all they should have at least given you a sample app to demonstrate usage of those classes.

OK. Thanks. we already resolved the problem.
Indead, the .h and .lib wasn't OK. We open the .lib with notepad and noticed the names of classes wasn't the same:
CMyClass versus CMy_Class for instance.
Resolving the problem: shooting them!!! 
Thanks.

I'm still not clear exactly about what an owner drawn control is. How is it different from a regular control? I didnt find anything describing the basic concept of what it means to be owner drawn. Any links would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Ordinary windows controls (text box, list box, list view, button, tree view, combo box, etc.) are not owner drawn. You just have to create it. When a dialog is repainted (it gets WM_PAINT message) Windows repaints controls. For exaxmple if you have a button, and the dailog was repainted, Windows draw it using GDI functions (DrawLine, DrawText, DrawRectangle, etc.)
If you want the button to look different, you can crete an owner drawn (not by Windows but by an owner!) button. You have to draw it by yourself, using GDI functions.
I will quote a part of MSDN article about Tab controls (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/CommCtls/Tab/Tab.asp):
Owner-Drawn Tabs
If a tab control has the TCS_OWNERDRAWFIXED style, the parent window must paint tabs by processing the WM_DRAWITEM message. The tab control sends this message whenever a tab needs to be painted. The lParam parameter specifies the address of a DRAWITEMSTRUCT structure, which contains the index of the tab, its bounding rectangle, and the device context (DC) in which to draw.
By default, the itemData member of DRAWITEMSTRUCT contains the value of the lParam member of the TCITEM structure. However, if you change the amount of application-defined data per tab, itemData contains the address of the data instead. You can change the amount of application-defined data per tab by using the TCM_SETITEMEXTRA message.
To specify the size of items in a tab control, the parent window must process the WM_MEASUREITEM message. Because all tabs in an owner-drawn tab control are the same size, this message is sent only once. There is no tab control style for owner-drawn tabs of varying size. You can also set the width and height of tabs by using the TCM_SETITEMSIZE message.

1st - get the handle of the child window. You can use function GetWindow():
HWND msinWindow = (...)
HWND childWindow;
childWindow = GetWindow(wndHandle, GW_CHILD);
2nd - Get the child window's rectangle (with respect to its parent window ) using GetWindowRect(), like this:
RECT childRectangle;
GetWindowRect(childWindow, &childRectangle);
The childRectangle will 'receives the screen coordinates of the upper-left and lower-right corners of the window' [MSDN].
3rd - use ClientToScreen() function to get the window position with respect to desktop window.

I wrote:
HWND msinWindow = (...)HWND childWindow;childWindow = GetWindow(wndHandle, GW_CHILD);
Sorry, I meant (in 1st):
HWND mainWindow = (...)
HWND childWindow;
childWindow = GetWindow(mainWindow, GW_CHILD);

Hi,
I want to change the wait cursor to an own created animated cursor. How can I do it?
|

Add a new cursor resource to your app. See MSDN for SetCursor and LoadImage.

error C2065: 'LONG_PTR' : undeclared identifier
I 'm using DirectShow.
Where 'LONG_PTR' is defined.
|
|
|
|
|
It is defined in basetsd.h from Microsoft Platform SDK. You need to install SDK and ensure that SDK include directory is listed before Visul C include directory. You can also define it yourself:
typedef long LONG_PTR, *PLONG_PTR;

It's worked that way since Win 95 
and maybe before that, but I only started using Win with 95.

Yup, worked that way in 3.1 also. I had so much fun, taking a screenshot of the desktop w/ Progman running & making the wallpaper so it looked like Progman was still running even when it was minimized though of course you could see the icon for Progman then so it wasn't all that good of a joke...
... and then i'd reboot into OS/2 & do useful stuff ...

Use print screen alone, and then paintbrush for example. Alt will hide menu.

The DirectX SDK used to come with a tool called conv3ds.exe that converts .3ds files into .x files for loading in Direct3d. It doesn't seem to exist in the DX8.1SDK, but you can find it on google

The DirectX SDK comes with a plugin for Max which will output meshes (including animated meshes) to a .X file. You can then load this file using the DirextX utility library.
If you're new to game development I suggest you learn OpenGL at first because it's much easier to use at the beginner to intermidiate levels yet is just as powerful as DirectX. When you're comfortable with OpenGL switch over to DirectX this way the transition is much easier.
I recommend you start using Opengl[^] and Glut which will help you understand 3D concepts rather then get bogged down in the device and window handling routines. nehe.gamedev.net[^] has a whole bunch of tuturials related to game dev.
