I derived a class from CTreeView in order to implement drag and drop between trees. I also made it so I can add/delete/edit items in the tree. I need a way of saving the edited tree so I can load it up the next time I run my app.
Any suggestions? I don't want to have to parse through the tree and save/load that way.

Hi,
I posted this message before, but maybe this time I can give a little more information.
I wrote a DirectX program using Marcio Ritter's tutorial. Sadly, it crashes everytime I run it. I have, however, narrowed it down to a line of code that is causing the problem. Here is the function, ProcessIdle()
void ProcessIdle()
{
HRESULT hRet;
BOOL bOK;
bOK = g_Brick.Draw(g_pDDSBack, 10, 10, 2, 2, 10,10);
while( 1 )
{
hRet = g_pDDSFront->Flip(NULL, 0 );
if( hRet == DD_OK )
{
break;
}
if( hRet == DDERR_SURFACELOST )
{
g_pDDSFront->Restore();
}
if( hRet != DDERR_WASSTILLDRAWING )
{
break;
}
}
}</code>
The while loop also causes problems if I remove the first problem line. I think that may be because I can only test that line when I remove the first problem line, and it needs that line to run.
Here is the function that the problem line calls:
BOOL CSurface::Draw(LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE7 lpDest, int iDestX, int iDestY, int iSrcX, int iSrcY, int nWidth, int nHeight)
{
RECT rcRect;
HRESULT hRet;
if(nWidth == 0)
nWidth = m_Width;
if(nHeight == 0)
nHeight = m_Height;
rcRect.left = iSrcX;
rcRect.top = iSrcY;
rcRect.right = nWidth + iSrcX;
rcRect.bottom = nHeight + iSrcY;
while(1)
{
if((int)m_ColorKey < 0)
{
hRet = lpDest->BltFast(iDestX, iDestY, m_pSurface,
&rcRect, DDBLTFAST_NOCOLORKEY);
}
else
{
hRet = lpDest->BltFast(iDestX, iDestY, m_pSurface,
&rcRect, DDBLTFAST_SRCCOLORKEY);
}
if(hRet == DD_OK)
break;
if(hRet == DDERR_SURFACELOST)
{
Restore();
}
else
{
if(hRet != DDERR_WASSTILLDRAWING)
return FALSE;
}
}
return TRUE;
}</code>

From looking at the code, the g_Brick object may not be initialized properly, or the g_pDDSBack surface. The g_Brick variable is an object that has been created, but have you actually created a surface to initialize this object.
The while loop may have problems because either the g_pDDSFront variable is not initialized and you are calling from it, or the g_pDDSBack variable is somehow used in the Flip function.
If you want to send me your code, zip up the source files and the project and send it to kilowatt@prodigy.net and I will be happy to look at it.
Good Luck

I think I have a very subtle bug here...
Here's the jist of it:
class First {
...
static int i;
...
};
int First::i = 7;
class Second {
...
static int q;
...
};
int Second::q = First::i;
I have a feeling that the order in which those statics get initialized is undefined (or at least compiler-specific), so Second::q might get 7 and might not.
Is this correct?

I dunno, but I would tend to do this instead:
const int STATICVALUE = 7;
int First::i = STATICVALUE;
int Second::q = STATICVALUE;

Perhaps my example was poor. 
Yes, that would solve the problem I posted. What I actually want to do is this:
class First {
static char *szName;
};
char *First::szName = "First";
class Second {
static char *szName;
};
char *Second::szName = "Second";
class User {
static char *aszNames[];
};
char *User::aszNames[] = {First::szName, Second::szName};
The names are essentially constants, but the initialization order is still undefined.

Once again, I found the answer to my own question. Unfortunarly, I was right. Thankfully I found it before it posed any major problems...
Here's a nice link[^] to an explanation and potential solutions.

This is absolutely correct (I mean, it is pontentially broken as you suspected). In your particular case, chances are that you don't notice anything strange, as initialization of First::i can be done in compile time (i.e. the value 7 is directly stored in the executable). Try this for some more fun:
class First {
...
static int i;
static int j;
...
};
int First::i = 7;
int First::j = Second::q;
class Second {
...
static int q;
static int r;
...
};
int Second::q = First::i;
int Second::r = First::j;

There's a way out of this dilemma in the case of two or more compilation units whose initialization depends on one another (though the best soluttion is probably to rethink the design): wrap the static data into accessors, just like this:
class First
{
...
static int i();
static int j();
...
};
int First::i()
{
static int i_ = 7;
return i_;
}
int First::j()
{
static int j_ = Second::q();
return j_;
}
class Second
{
...
static int q();
static int r();
...
};
int Second::q()
{
static int q_ = First::i();
return q_;
}
int Second::r()
{
static int r_ = First::j();
return r_;
}

When I use the MessageBox function and a Manifest file under XP, the MessageBox isn't displayed. Without Manifest file it does work. What's wrong?
Sjoerd van Leent
LPCTSTR Dutch = TEXT("Double Dutch ");

This thread is DAMN old, i know.
But for people who actually wanna find the solution (like myself the half of day), here is the answer:
XP Manifest indicates that application will use Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls ver. 6.0.0.0 theme extensions.
But it DOES NOT ensure that that the common control dynamic-link library (DLL) is loaded.
So before calling something even as simple as "MessageBoxA" in the application with such embedded manifest, you should call "InitCommonControls" from "comctl32.dll".

I want to learn how to make my own custom shaped dialogs, much like Windows Media Player[^] does, with it's own user-defined edge.
I'd search for topics here at CP, but I do not even know what the technique is called, making it hard. I figured it had something to do with transparency, so I search for that keyword, but nothing obvious surfaced. Anyone know a good article I ought to read? I'm just looking for some direction.
Edit: I'd like something in MFC, if at all possible... and if not possible I'd like to know why?

Check out this article for a way to get started:
http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/message_balloons.asp[^]
Remember that MFC is a class library wrapped around the Windows API. AFAIK, Windows doens't natively support dialogs that aren't square, so you have to write custom code to do it, so it is unlikely that this will get into MFC anytime soon.

It certainly does, check out SetWindowRgn().

try: http://www.codeproject.com/gdi/coolrgn.asp[^]
It allows you to create a region to use with SetWindowRgn (as Michael Dunn suggestion below) from a bitmap file.
I use something similar for my funky non-rectangle app.
That's why I ramble so much. If you're short and quotable, there's a much greater danger of ending up in a sig.

As an example, there is a project posted here on codeproject (by John Roark) that displays a "skinned" dialog (sorry I don't have the link at this time). If I try to add a CStatic derived class to it, I keep getting link errors (see below). I am using the "Use MFC in a static library" option. Using a shared dll option does not produce the error, but I need to have the static library option.
Every search I do keeps telling me that I can solve this error by selecting one of the Multi-Threaded options in the "Code Generation" tab of VC6. The thing is - I already have the Multi-Threaded option picked.
I'm really hoping that this is a very simple problem to solve, but I'm stumped.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
David

Are you linking to any other static libraries? They will also need the same settings.
One other thing - sometimes it is easer not to fight these types of errors and create a clean project from scratch. In other words, create a new project (DSP), making sure to select that you are using MFC statically. Then add your files, making sure things still compile. Chances are this will work, or at least help you narrow down the culprit.

You probably need to do some more. There is an article in MSDN that describes what you have to do to add MFC support to an ATL project. It is pretty generalizable advice.
Search for "Howto MFC ATL" to find the article.

Hi there,
Is there any function in CDaoRecordset class that check the field value ...
I mean just check Is the field empty ?

Does anyone know what algorithm FindString uses? This function does not work like I think it should. I am allowing a user to select an item from a list and add the item to another list. I don't want duplicates added to the second list so I use FindString to determine if the selected item is already in the list.
Simple enough.
Or so I thought. An example:
If I add the string "cutset2" to the list, then try to add the string "cutset" to the list...FindString tells me that "cutset" is already in the list. If I reverse the order and add "cutset" then "cutset2", FindString works properly.
Does anyone know why? Is this standard behavior? Is there any way around it, besides writting my own FindString function?
