Hi All,
I'm trying to implement a message window, like the one in Visual Studio, without the tabs, though. I've got a CDialogBar member in my main frame class, with an embedded rich edit control. How do I send text to a rich edt control programmatically? I was using a list control, but didn't like the way this worked, since it didn't give many formatting options. I thought about using a regular edit control, but then I couldn't do fancy formatting either.
Thanks
Aaron

AFAIK, you can call SetWindowText on the rich edit control, but this is probably inefficient. Try looking up the CRichEditCtrl member StreamIn, or the windows message EM_STREAMIN.

StreamIn seems to work OK. Thanks

I'm working on a little security program to ensure that invalid CD's do not get inserted into our SOE machines, and to enable this I'm building a little program to manage adding a link to the users start menu.
What I need to know is there an easy way to detect if there is a CD ROM Inserted.
I've been playing with CreateFile for the purpose which is fine, to ascertain that the actual CD that is currently in the Drive is invalid, BUT if there is no disk at all, then a No Disk in CD warning is displayed by the operating system.
Is there a way to disable the Warning(temporarily) or a better way to check for the prescence of a disk?
Thanks for any help.

Try to call SetErrorMode with SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS flag. It works with floppies, probably will with CD drive as well.

thanks so much... this is perfect..
and to make it normal again after my check I just call
SetErrorMode(0);
|
|
|
|

Not exactly. SetErrorMode(0) returns the current error mode - I don't know why that behavior has been removed from MSDN. So the correct way is:
UINT uOldMode = SetErrorMode(0);
SetErrorMode ( uOldMode | SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS );
SetErrorMode ( uOldMode ); And no I don't know why they didn't just provide a GetErrorMode() API.

 Thanks, Brian, but I don't think that was me on the awards list. I don't exactly have a unique name, and no one's ever contacted me in email about it.

Well it should have been you. Is there anyway you could find out if it was?

well I have Translated a rc file into japanese.
The problem is that the width of some resource is too small. So I have to resize it and I would like to do it "graphically" with an editor and not directly into the rc file by changing it, compiling it and then to see it in my software ....
|
|
|
|
|
AFAIK, the resource editor works in code page, and is not in UNICODE;meaning, you have to be in the japanese code page to be able to edit the japanese resources.
go to the regional settings, and change to japanese ( don't remember which one it is ).
Max.

When the app first starts and you right click the area, the popup menu shows up. However if you start the app, do some other operations and then right click in the area , theres no popup menu!
Appreciate your help,
ns

Put the breakpoint in the right-click handler, check if menu loads correctly from resources 2nd time.
IMHO, this is just another symptom of the bug you've described below.

Hello,
Does anybody know if it is possible to generate a header file from a .lib file?
The header file will contain the actual procedure with a call to GetProcAddress.
It should be really cool if I can specify just a set of procedures I need.
The reason why I ask this is the following:
I'm writing a program which connects to an Oracle database. Oracle delivers a .lib file.
The problem is that Oracle like to change the names of the client dll file from version to version.
So if I link the .lib file, the program will complain about missing dll's if I run the program with another version of the Oracle client than the one I compiled my program with.
All the procedures however are the same.
So it would be nice that I have a header file that translates some functions to their respective GetProcAddresses, and I should need to write the LoadLibrary part.
Thank in advance
Wim

It'll be quite hard, since .lib may have no information on function arguments/return type. And even if it has, it'll be name-mangled.

Thanks,
I guess I'll have to do it manually then.

It's quite easy to use the symbol API to unmangle names. Take a look at the function UnDecorateSymbolName in the MSDN. Although it is also possible, like Tomasz said, that the .lib file won't have any names in it.

In my application, i want to use FindWindow(className, windowTitle) to
determine whether an instance of this application has already been running.
But what is the class name registered by MFC? let's say, the project name is
"Myapp", and classes CMyappApp, CMyappDoc, CMyappView, CMainFrame are created
by VC++. i tried them but none worked. Please help me! Thanks a lot!!!!

MFC creates class names on the fly using 'Afx' prefix and hex values for background brush/cursor/window style.
FindWindow isn't the way to go for determining if app is already running, at least not with class/caption only. You should consider using named mutex for that; there should be some articles right here on CP.
