Tom,
I was able to get the transparency to work, however it only seems to work on video cards with 32-bit color depth. When I go down to 16-bit color depth, the magenta background that I have shows up. I am handling the WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message in my message procedure to set the background color of the image to the dialog color as shown below.
case WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC:
hdc = (HDC)wParam;
dwColor = GetSysColor(COLOR_BTNFACE);
SetBkColor(hdc, dwColor);
return TRUE;
Do you have any suggestions on how to get this to work with all video card bit depths?

Are you testing in XP? I've had a similar problem some months ago, everything worked just fine in every OS except XP. Finally, modifying the style right before opening the file seems to fix the problem:
DWORD dwStyle = GetWindowLong(hwndAdmin,GWL_STYLE);
dwStyle = dwStyle | dwAdd;
SetWindowLong(hwndAdmin,GWL_STYLE,ACS_TRANSPARENT);
Animate_Open(hwndAnim, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_AVI));

I am sure there was a switch for Visual Studio 6.0 that displayed build times. Dammned if I can remember it though.
Can anyone 'jog' my memory.

Start msdev.exe with the /y3 command. Build times should be displayed now...

Hi,
i have a own protocol stack implementation in Windows2000.
Wenn i send an udp Frame with a port xxxx ( to the Win2000 PC ), the WinSock Part of the OS sends an ICMP Message at the sender with
Type 3 : Destination unreachable
Code 2 : Port unreachable.
It doesn't matter to my program, because i can get the frame and make
my own processing. But how can i prevent these messages.
I think i could bind a (the)udp port to a socket and listen.
But these isn't quite good.
Can anybody help me ?

cumchange = (int*)malloc(cols * sizeof(int));
[/code]
The error message show

At that Disassembly window
the first line is
77F7F570 int 3
If you know how to solve my problem, please tell me. Thank you.

Sounds like you're breaking inside the memory allocation code; this is usually because you've trashed some memory elsewhere (tried to free memory twice, overwritten beyond the allocated area, written to memory after freeing it).
If you have a DEBUG build, there's usually a diagnostic of some sort generated in the output window when you run under the debugger.

si.dwFlags=STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW|STARTF_USESTDHANDLES;
si.wShowWindow = SW_HIDE;
//more somethings
problem (with java 1.3):
if i hide dos window, the java app is hidden also. if show, both are shown.

Hi guys,
If I use the STL find algorithm, it returns an iterator. Is there any way for me to determine from the iterator, at what index the item was found?
Thanks

Assumming the iterator belongs to an indexed contaner c (like std::vector), then std::distance(c.begin(),it) should yield the index.

Following the notation of www.m-w.com, it is something like

where k is the sound of scotch Loch or german Bach. Many people diphthonguize the first two syllables into:

I have created CMyView class derived from CHtmlView. I use this class to show text from html file. I want to know how can I get text in CMyView at position that mouse clicked?
|
|
|
|
|
In the web world, clicking with the mouse doesn't set any position, since the Html renderer dynamically stretches the content so it fits.
Now if the user selects something with click+drag, then the MSIE DOM allows you to get the current selection. See MSDN stuff like InnerHtml.

Hello all, I have written a little MFC application (i have VC6 standard edition) and would like to distribute it shareware on a low deployment basis.
Now, checking out a MSDN document ('redistributing VC++ 6.0 Applications') and reading carefully the 'redist.txt' document in the Visual Studio CD, i have noticed that there is a comprehensive, not short, list of what DLL's I ought to include, but i'd like to determine, if possibile, just only , say, 'the minimum' dll set.
1) I think i could just distribute these (i have no database support in my application):
-mfc42.dll
-msvcrt.dll
and:
-msvcp60.dll <-- is it really necessary?
-msvcirt.dll <-- is it really necessary?
-atl.ddl <-- is it really necessary?
2) I plan to put these files in the app directory, not on the system or system32: anybody knoews in there would be some problems with win98, win98SE, win ME and win XP? I read somewhere about a slight different way of checking the dll path in these OS.
3) In the MSDN document i read 'the mfc42.dll' SHOULD be registered on the target computer to ensure 'all mfc funcionality' is present. somehwere (If i am not wrong even searching on this excellent forum) somebody told this is actually not necessary.
Thanks in adavance for any suggestion/tip about the above

1) If you use MFC as static link, you don't need either of these DLLs (all the code is embedded in your exe or dll).
If you use MFC as shared dll (default behaviour) then yes redistrubtion problems arise.
mfc42.dll and msvcrt.dll are the primary release dlls and are needed. But msvcirt.dll, msvcp60.dll, and a few others (including msstkprp.dll) may be required depending on whether you use them. To know it, just use "Dependency walker" and figure them out. Otherwise you could rename one of those dlls and try to run your program. If it runs fine, now you know...
Be warned, if <winsysdir>mfc42.dll is already installed (but in an older version) and locked by another process, then you won't be able to overwrite it until next boot-time. And you'll have to add a win.ini entry and stuff ==> use InstallShield for this purpose instead.
atl.dll is often not needed. Default use of atl is static linking, thus atl.dll is not needed. Again, check this out with "Dependency walker" (static report is enough). You may also check out your project settings : if there is no _ATL_DLL, then you don't need atl.dll at all.
2) Go on. It's fine. ::LoadLibrary() always consider the current directory, so as long as your app loads those DLLs at launch-time (before you do any ::SetCurDir(...)) it's ok.
3) mfc42.dll is actually a COM component. Just ask Install shield to register it. Or dfo yourself a regsvr32 mfc42.dll
x) A question you didn't ask. What about restricted profiles, such lke those from NT/2K/XP : in fact, you can't rely on raw installation (belive it or not) : you MUST use Windows Installer. .msi files are the only files allowed to install anything on a client desktop with restricted profile. Of course, you may end up asding the end user to log as local admin, but now you know...
To manage .msi files (and embed .msm MFC merge modules), use either VisualStudio Installer, or InstallShield 7, or upgrade to VC7.

Hello Stephane
first of all, thank you A LOT for your fast reply
1)
>>If you use MFC as shared dll (default behaviour) then yes redistrubtion problems arise.
Unfortunately VC 6 standard allows only mfc shared dll linking so i have no choice 
1b)
>>Be warned, if <winsysdir>mfc42.dll is already installed (but in an older version) and locked by another process, then you won't be able to overwrite it until next boot-time. And you'll have to add a win.ini entry and stuff ==> use InstallShield for this purpose instead
VC 6 standard doesn't ship InstallShield, so i use Inno Setup free installer with a statement like (if installing in the default sys dir, otherwise, as i would like to do, in the app dir itself just cut the destidir section):
Source: "c:\vcfiles\mfc42.dll"; DestDir: "{sys}"; CopyMode: alwaysskipifsameorolder; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall regserver
; alwaysskipifsameorolder and the Flag uninsneveruninstall on all of the above files,
; since you would not want to potentially overwrite newer versions of the existing files
; with older ones, nor would you want the uninstaller to ever delete them.
>you won't be able to overwrite it until next boot-time. And you'll have to add a win.ini entry and stuff
Could you kindly tell me what win.ini entry and stuff would be required?
2) OK 
3) OK, i think Innosetup can do the regserv stuff too
x) you are right, anyway with Inno Setup i can write something like below:
; Administrative privileges are required
; In order for the files with the restartreplace flag to install successfully
; on Windows NT and 2000, the user must have administrative privileges.
; By default, Inno Setup installations do not check for administrative privileges.
; It is recommended that make your installation script check for this,
; by setting the AdminPrivilegesRequired [Setup] section directive:
; [Setup]
; ...
; AdminPrivilegesRequired=1
; ...
; If this is not done, and the user doesn't have administrative privileges,
; an "Access Denied" error message will be displayed during the installation.
y)
>> To manage .msi files (and embed .msm MFC merge modules), use either VisualStudio Installer, or InstallShield 7, or upgrade to VC7.
Do you know if the only way to get this upgrade would be to purchase the full Visual Studio .NET or maybe they sell just only the VC7 as a separated product?
Again thanks a lot in advance for your * very appreciated * help!

You are running a project on a low-budget basis.

So your questions go to the InnoSetup guys behind.

Yes, you can buy VC++.NET[^]. Price is here[^].

 Hi,
When I try to compile a program I get a following fatal error
===========================================
fatal error C1189: #error : "eh.h is only for C++!"
Error executing cl.exe.
===========================================
I'm using VC 6. Please can someone tell me where do I get the right eh.h for VC? It's very critical!!!
Many Thanks,
John Bosco.

Seems you're including "eh.h" from a .c, try renanimg your file to .cpp extension.
