I have also found mfc42.msm and msvcrt.msm in the following position:
"C:\Programmi\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Tools\VSInst\BuildRes"
can I use them ??
And how ??
As you can see, I not skilled and I need Help !!!
Thanks a lot.

You are using VC++ 6.0, right ?
VC.NET has better .msi support, but with VC++ 6.0 you must rely on InstallShield 7 to build your setup.
Of course, if you are distributing a shareware, you may just play on the low side and distribute a simple zip file with both your .exes and .dlls and the MFC dlls in the SAME directory (you can test for yourself, it works).
If you are working on a real world software project, then I guess the company you work for must pay a lot of attention to the Deployment part.
You have plenty of documents to read on MSDN : download the Windows Installer SDK from the MS site...
MS quote (http://www.microsoft.com/ddk) : As of September 30, 2002, the Microsoft® Windows® 2000 DDK, the Microsoft Windows 98 DDK, and the Microsoft Windows NT® 4.0 DDK will no longer be available for purchase or download on this site.

Yup, VS.NET does have better MSI support, which is to say "some".
However, it's possible to use Visual Studio Installer (downloadable from MS' site) as well, for VC++ 6.0.
I hadn't intended to imply that MFC42.DLL was part of the OS, although I have yet to see a machine that doesn't have MSVCRT.DLL on it (so I'll probably find one later today!), but the most important bit you mentioned was "pay a lot of attention to the Deployment".

I implement a trick in font building. in font creator, i create several chars which is of 0 advance width, which mean when it write in front of a char(for example 'O'), it may have decorative effect (for example 'ó'). This will stop a combination explosion by make new char to add dot on ABCDEFG... Only a front decorative and a normal char is ok.
in WORD, it works very well. But i find a bug in richedit(i am not sure where it is really a bug). in richedit control (or wordpad in every windows system with richedit control as a core), the is still a little advance gap on a zero width char. because of this, i can't match the decorator and the base char. i wonder whether a setting to stop the automation advance?
I have some examples font and docs, if you wanna a test please contact me. My mail is novalet@yahoo.com.cn

I want to find the difference betweeen system time and file last modified time.so iam using these APIs but these functions are not working on win98. i want to know wheather these api will work in win98
FILETIME FileUTCTime;
SYSTEMTIME SysLocalTime,SysUTCTime,FiSyLocalTime;
FileTimeToLocalFileTime(&fadSrc.ftLastWriteTime,&FileUTCTime);
FileTimeToSystemTime(&FileUTCTime,&FiSyLocalTime);
GetSystemTime(&SysUTCTime);
SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime(NULL,&SysUTCTime,&SysLocalTime);
|
|
|
|
|
The only function that will not work that you have listed is:
SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime
This function is simply not supported under any of the win9x operating systems.

does anyone here know how to set the compiler optimization mode to "default" for a single file? i'd prefer to do it with a pragma.
VC6
-c
As always, it's bread and circuses. And while bread is down right now, circuses are way up.

i found it - and i found yet another bug in MS's "Minimize Size" optimization setting.
in this case, i was throwing an exception derived from std::exception (on purpose). but, it was crashing in the _CxxThrowException code (the stuff between the "throw" and the "catch".
it worked fine in debug. it worked fine in debug with BoundsChecker. it worked fine in release mode, if built with debug info, but crashed in plain release mode. turning off optimizations in the module with the *catch* fixed the problem.
yuck!

Hi,
In a dialog based application, i have a menu and a toolbar.
It is easy for making the toolbar button for each single menu
item. But i'm lost in trying to make a toolbar button for a menu
item which has a number of sub menu items.
How to do this?
Thanks in advance!

What is the best way to use XML in C++ 6.0? DOM or SAX, wich is the easiest and efficient way to read and write data.
examples and comments welcome
thanks

The DOM works well for small files, SAX for larger ones.

One more thing to consider with the DOM versus SAX,
The DOM creates persistant data for your XML. It will read the data in and create an internal structure that you can refer back to whenever you need to read from a certain node.
The SAX on the other hand is a one pass mechanism, where you will use the APIs to read and write the data. The data is not persistant in the SAX API so once it has been read, it is forgotten and you are responsible for persiting the data in your app.

The downside with SAX is that you almost inevitably end up writing FSA style stuff to deal with the incoming data, and there's no support for navigating the document as in DOM.
While writing a state machine isn't exactly rocket science, if you have never done it before there are many things to watch out for.

How to send a message from a parent window to child window...can i use post message for this...but i don't know how to select the the parameter UINT for the post message..can i use WM_USER..what is its format if i want to send a
string value?

You can send a message to any window as long as you have the handle to the window and there is a message handler to catch the message in the receiving window.

I assume you want to send a custom message...
Use WM_USER to create the message id. Then you can send 0 or whatever as the uiParam and send a pointer to the string (LPCSTR works) as the lParam. You will have to cast it back to a string in the message handler.

There's a catch with sending strings, though. If you use PostMessage, there's no guarantee that your message will be processed at a particular time (like, before PostMessage returns).
So code like
{
char x[128];
SetupMyString(x);
PostMessage(otherWindow, WM_USER, 0, (LPARAM)x);
}
may well die a horrible death. If you need to do this, you either need a longer lived string, or alternatively, you could allocate, and have the receiver deallocate, but that relies on you having the source for the receiver to modify it in this way.
