dynamically use ActiveX/COM will not cause your case.

"dynamically" means 2 ideas:
1. use #import, but u have to re-compile if need upgrad.
2. use LoadLibraryEx with Invoke method, u even don't need to re-compile ur exe to upgrad.

but, in both cases, use COM is better, do not use ActiveX.
ActiveX is not really "very standard" as COM is.

idea 2 needs much more knowleges than idea 1.

if insist using wrapper classes, delete all of them if need upgrad, new classes will be re-generated when add the control.

Thank you for those lighting advises...

But a question: maybe it is more difficult to build a com project than an activeX one, I mean in time and volume of code to produce ?
I don't have a lot of time to supply a prototype of the implementation of my project, even if I agree with you concerning the better quality of a com project.

Thanks for all.

in ur case, the COM (full control) is just a little bit harder than ACtiveX - it is worth to spend few hrs to learn.

but dynamical methods are quite trick: microsoft calls them "language indepandent", actually just can be used in VB and C++ (much more trick if in java).

once our lovely C++ downs toword VB, it becomes worse, that is why advanced c++ programmers don't like COM at all even they have to use and may be experts on COM.

I realy thank you for advises. and so I don't know if for my actual project (it's a shame) I will use the com techno, but maybe sooner in an other project for which I will get some more time to do.

I have, if you have time to answer me, a little more question. What do you think about .net services (web services) compared to the com techno to allow access to several resources through the network ?

Hi,
I have developed a dialog based application under W2k using Visual C++ 6.0 to print a table. In W2k and Windows XP professional works well, but it doesn't work in W9x & WMe. I'm using MM_ISOTROPIC map mode because I need to print some graphics. In W9x and WMe, when I print, I haven't obtain any results. I thought, "I'm doing something wrong", so I generate a SDI with Print Preview option and I wrote inside OnDraw(...):

....
pDC->SetMapMode(MM_ISOTROPIC);
pDC->Rectangle(100,-100,300,-300);

then I executed the program, I choose Print Preview from File menu. The Print Preview showed me a sheet with a rectangle. I printed this and i obtained the same results. Everything its Ok under W2k and WXP, but in W9x and WMe it's a disaster.

Can somebody help me!!!!!

Thanks.

What does your print code look like?

Where is your:

cdc.StartDoc(pinfo);
cdc.StartPage();
...
cdc.EndPage();
cdc.EndDoc();

Are you attaching your DC properly? Are you rendering correctly?

Could someone please help! I dont seem to be able to find anywhere that explains how to use callback functions with in MFC.

Being an MFC novice I'm a bit stuck. I get the idea behind it, but I dont understand how to code it. How are static functions used in callbacks?

Would appreciate some idiot-proof help from someone who understands it all.

Thanks,

How are static functions used in callbacks?

whole process of MFC is exactly as Win32 story.

key part to develop a lib as MFC is not "How are static functions used in callbacks", but how are classes connected to a cllback function (it is not a class member even it can be static function of a class).

view Windows' creation if interested - pass class pointer as parameter, otherwise just use MFC as it is - callbacks are hidden behind somewhere.

What I'm trying to do is to read in a MIDI file (That works no probs), then during the playback go through each instrument, and create alist of events to be outputted, then call back to a function inside my View class to output the messages. However code that works on the same lines uses callback functions they have written themselves, and I can't seem to find anywhere that really explains whats going on in the code. I've tried writing static functions that deal with the callback, but since I'm not too sure whats going on I get errors.

Really could do with an article that explains how to do the call back syntax.

Does anyone know where I could find one. Can't find much in MSDN.

For MFC's AfxBeginThread() I recommend a global function.

AfxBeginThread() :: UINT theCallBackFunc(LPVOID lParam);

For C++ thread callback I recommend a static function.

_beginthreadex() :: static unsigned __stdcall theCallback(void *pParam);

hi,

I have a formview (in splitter window)

after OnInitialUpdate()

i do a load bitmap, but the size of bitmap is greater than the form
i like to draw scrollbars of the formview

m_static_picture.GetWindowRect(&rect); //beholder of bitmap
GetWindowRect(&rectWindow);
if(rectWindow.bottom < rect.bottom)
{
//to small a scroll bar is needed
int cx = rectWindow.Width();
int cy = rectWindow.Height();
int iDif = rect.bottom - rectWindow.bottom;
cy += iDif;

ScreenToClient(&rectWindow);
SetWindowPos(this, 0, 0, cx, cy, SWP_NOMOVE);
}

i wonder why this code is not working (i see no scollbar)

even if after adding

SCROLLINFO si;
GetScrollInfo(SB_VERT,&si);
si.nMin = 0;
si.nPage = rectWindow.Height();
si.nMax = cy;
si.nPos = 0;
si.nTrackPos = 0;
si.fMask = SIF_ALL;
si.cbSize = sizeof(si);
SetScrollInfo(SB_VERT, &si, TRUE);
ShowScrollBar(SB_VERT, TRUE);

give no result,

any ideas??

after you loaded your bmp, if the image dimesion of this bmp is imageWidth x imageHeight, try the following code:

CSize sizeTotal;
sizeTotal.cx = imageWidth;
sizeTotal.cy = imageHeight;
SetScrollSizes(MM_TEXT, sizeTotal);

Rich Edit Control Bug??

Hola,
I'm wondering whether any of you gurus out there have ever come across this problem before.
Our company develops and have been using this data processing software for a while now. However, last week when a sister company tried to run the software, it bombed.
After much testing, we found that the bug was due to the Rich Edit control embeded in a particular view.

Now this is the weired bit. We have used the rich edit control (via loading the RichEd32.dll) with success, but this bug occurs when we try to use the control via the Rich Edit control provided by Visual Studio.
It ran fine on our side, but crashes on there machine! Yes I know of the 'works on my system' headache, but this really is puzzling! :<

Anyone know of any problems or specific requirements why this would happen specifically to the riched control placed on the dialog via the resource editor?

Using VC6. Compiled on Win2k.

I am not sure what you mean "Rich Edit control provided by Visual Studio", it is still RichEd32.dll is not? "Works for me" usually solved using depends.exe and oleview.exe; make sure that whatever your program depends on is installed on the user's computer. My guess is you just switched to VC7 and forgot to ship new dlls for MFC, CRT, and STL.

format of jar file

i need to know format of jar file.

i.e. zip file is in a set of structs: local_file_head, central_file_head etc.

jar file should be in a set of structs also, but i can't find any info about it.

any hints and links is wanderful.

thx in advance.

I'd start at java.sun.com . Why do you need to know the format? can't you just use sun's jar tool to unpack it.
