As far as I understand it:
bind2nd: can turn an fun(x,y) function call into an g(x):=f(x,y) with constant y
mem_fun1: can turn an one-param object member function into an two-param global function, e.g. y->member(x) ==> non_member(x,y)
i.e. to call a one-arg member function, you first turn it into a two-arg global function, than reduce it to a one-arg global function (making the second param constant)
I may be far wrong here, though.

Nope. STL for loops tend to be much slower in RL. In my testing, it has run 4-5 to 1 in favor of handwritten loops as far as performance.
Now, as far as program correctness, it is the job of the STL people to PROVE that the STL method generates less bugs. They have failed to do this. This means that the claim has no more merit than me saying I can read the minds of dead people.
This example is pure STL masterbation that tends to confuse people more than it helps them to maintain the code. IMHO, it makes it a "BAD THING". And I don't really give a sh*t what Herb and Steve say. Until they can come up with proof (which is something Herb tends to do more of), their claims hold no weight.
EDIT: I don't mean to talk negatively about Jörgen Sigvardsson here. We just disagree on this point.

my last line obviously missed an <sarcasm>> emoticon 
I think if you use the more complex STL stuff daily, the thing Jörgen does seems just more "natural" than a for loop.
However, in real life I'd always opt for the easier-to-understand method.

Hi all, may I know how to change my own menu bar.

no.. no.. you misunderstood me. I create a new menu bar using MFC. not my own drawing.. just regular menu bar.. I want to attachment it to my MainFrame but don't know how.
for example..
when you choose Single Document while you were creating application or building a new project, the menu bar get created too. The menu bar contains
File Edit View Help you can add more menu item to there.
I have created a new menu bar by Insert Menu then I type in only
File in side File only have New and Exit I don't want anything else like original menu bar File which consists, New, open, save,close,save as, exit...
I only want to know how to attach the menu bar to my application??
Thanks

In the .cpp of your application Class, add the following lines (in BOLD) for attaching an user defined menu...eg shows system menu getting replaced by IDR_MY_MENU1
(Like you I am also learning..hence if this fails please do not hold me responsible  ). If there is any other better that you come across let me know
CSingleDocTemplate* pDocTemplate;<br />
pDocTemplate = new CSingleDocTemplate(<br />
IDR_MAINFRAME,<br />
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyDoc),<br />
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMainFrame),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyView));<br />
AddDocTemplate(pDocTemplate);<br />
CCommandLineInfo cmdInfo;<br />
ParseCommandLine(cmdInfo);<br />
if (!ProcessShellCommand(cmdInfo))<br />
return FALSE;<br />
<br />
CMenu* pMenu = m_pMainWnd->GetMenu();<br />
if (pMenu)<br />
pMenu->DestroyMenu();<br />
<br />
pMenu = new CMenu();<br />
pMenu->LoadMenu(IDR_MY_MENU1);<br />
m_pMainWnd->SetMenu(pMenu);<br />
((CMainFrame*)m_pMainWnd)->m_hMenuDefault = pMenu->GetSafeHmenu();<br />
m_pMainWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);<br />
m_pMainWnd->UpdateWindow();<br />
<br />
return TRUE;<br />

Hey Everybody,
I am using CListCtrl in my application with check boxes.
By default windows provides various selection mechanism like
1. 'click' on an item, OR
2. multiple files by pressing 'ctrl' key and clicking on various items OR
3. using 'shift' and page down/up or end/home to select all item etc..
However mere selection does not check the checkboxes of the selected items. I want to implement functionality whereby as soon as a selection is made the check boxes gets checked.
1. What notification message should I trap?
2. Can somebody just give a pseudo code OR various steps in doing so?
Using "OnClick" I can trap a single item selection and I can set its check state. Problem is when I do a select using Shift + End/Home OR Shift + PageUp/Down. At this point I am not sure what message should be trapped to check the selection of the item and mark it checked.
I tried something to do like this with the notify mesg
BOOL CMyListView::OnNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, LRESULT* pResult)
{
LPNMLVODSTATECHANGE pNMListView = (LPNMLVODSTATECHANGE) lParam;
NMHDR pNMHDR = (NMHDR)pNMListView->hdr;
if (pNMListView->uOldState == 0 && pNMListView->uNewState == 0)
{
*pResult = 0;
return FALSE; // Do nothing and return
}
//ELSE
//Here I think I should have got items with selected state set so
//that I can call SetCheck on the item and programmitically to
//check the checkbox for those items.
//Please advise..
}
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
In the visual c++ envirment i opened a peoject, but i need to change its name, Is there a way to change the name of the workpsace?
thanks

I think the only way is to create a new project and Add To Project all the files that were in the first one. I could be wrong though....

I am trying to implement a CStatic control that has horizontally centered text with word break, and centered vertically as well. This control will be displaying multiple lines (as word break implies).
I tried getting the text extent by the following:
if (m_bCenterVert){<br />
CSize sz = pDCMem->GetTextExtent(strText);<br />
TEXTMETRIC tm;<br />
::ZeroMemory(&tm,sizeof(tm));<br />
pDCMem->GetTextMetrics(&tm);<br />
if (sz.cy <= tm.tmHeight){<br />
int y = rc.CenterPoint().y;<br />
y -= (tm.tmHeight / 2);<br />
rc.OffsetRect(0,y - rc.top);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
pDCMem->DrawText(strText,rc,dwFlags);
I think what is happening is the GetTextExtnent() is not showing the extent after the word breaking is done? It always adjusts to the center of the control, and the bottom line gets clipped.
Is there a better way?
Thanks.
(P.S.) How the heck do I indent my source code properly in one of these messages?

Hello there,
I'm using WinXP and i installed Farsi language as Non-
Unicode on it.
I wanted to write a MFC program by VC++ .NET
VC++ .NET supports Farsi language, too.
I changed my dialog language to Farsi.
The problem is when i put a static box in dialog and when
i want to write a farsi string in the static box caption,
VC++ change my string to ?????? (question mark characters)
What's wrong ?

Hello dear Mazdak,
Unfortunatly, No 
But I installed WinXP as usual in the company, then i installed VS .NET
It works fine on that !
I can't really understand what's wrong 
I asked this question in Microsoft Newsgroup too.
They got confused too 
If i found the answer i'll tell ya 
With Best Regards,

Whilst testing some code from the framework I have been working on in various Win32 platforms I came across a rather odd bug.
Lets say we have the following:
HBITMAP hbmpOrig = getImageListHBMP()
where hbmpOrig represents the HBITMAP to a properly created bitmap image in memory
Now I want to make a copy of the handle, and according to MSDN there is a nice function called CopyImage that does just this.
So I do the following:
HBITMAP hbmpCopy = (HBITMAP)CopyImage( hbmpOrig, IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0, LR_COPYRETURNORG );
Now according to the MSDN that I have at home (which is the Oct 98 MSDN that comes with VC6):
<quote>
CopyImage
<snip>
...
fuFlags
<snip>
LR_COPYRETURNORG Creates an exact copy of the image, ignoring the cxDesired and cyDesired parameters.
This is why I used the LR_COPYRETURNORG - to make a copy of the image.
The behavior on Win2000 (all sp versions), WinXP, Win98 (and presumably on 95 and ME as well) is to create a new HBITMAP value - just like the docs say.
However on Win NT4 it returns a the original value!! So this is a problem that was in the framework. One of the guys helping out on the project posted this problem to a newsgroup (or list, or whatever) on MSDN and this is what a Microsoft eng replied as :
>
> I don't think I understand - the docs for LR_COPYRETURNORG state
> that you will get back the original if it meets the criteria. Since
> you're asking for 0 width and height, the only way the original
> wouldn't satisfy your request is if it's a different bit depth.
>
> The difference in behavior is either a bug in NT4, or due to the

Sure enough I checked on the latest MSDN docs for this and they read:
<quote>
CopyImage
<snip>
...
fuFlags
<snip>
LR_COPYRETURNORG
Returns the original hImage if it satisfies the criteria for the copy—that is, correct dimensions and color depth—in which case the LR_COPYDELETEORG flag is ignored. If this flag is not specified, a new object is always created.
WTF ! This is the behaviour on WinNT4 but NO OTHER system performs like this!!! Which is correct ? Do we just use 0 ?
So I am curious - has anyone else ran into this before ? Is there a workable solution or do we just end up writing our own version of CopyImage? This is just so incredibly annoying. Actually it is a lot more than that but I am going to refrain from a stream of expletives...sigh.
Thanks in advance !

I'd say write your own. I know that TransparentBlt also has trouble, quite a few people have ended up using my version and it's solved their problems with it. It seems Microsoft are not infallible

Hi,
I create a Dialog box with some controls.
I would like to use my Dialog box for another application in VC++.
How can I do for import this dialog with all controls ?
Best Regards
youssef

Do you mean import? One solution is to import the dialog box class in the new project. Export the dialog box template and import it in the new project.
If you meant controlling the dialog box in another program, then you should consider other solutions including file-mapping, namepipe, Winsock, and COM.

When I go to the dialog box that I want to export, the context menu can't display Export but only import.
