Hi
I am working in the Visual .NET environment and am using the Resource View to add a Treelist control to my dialog box. The dialog box itself comes up when a button is pressed on another dialog window. However I have found that certain controls when added to any dialog box in my project prevent the dialog box from coming up. One of thse that prevents the dialog box from coming up is the Treelist control. However this does not happen with the picture control.
Would anyone have an idea why this is happening?
Thanks
Regards
Nitin

Call InitCommonControls() before creating the dialog.

Thanks for the suggestion. However it gave me some link errors explained below.
I initially added the InitCommonControls() function right before this line
DialogBox(hInst, (LPCTSTR)IDD_SPECDIRBOX, hDlg, (DLGPROC)SpecifyDirectory);
I got this linker error
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__InitCommonControls@4 referenced in function "long __stdcall AddRecord(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)" (?AddRecord@@YGJPAUHWND__@@IIJ@Z)
I then tried replacing that function because Microsoft says it is obsolete and has been replaced by
bool InitCommonControlsEx(LPINITCOMMONCONTROLSEX lpInitCtrls);
So now instead of just InitCommonControlsEx(); I have
INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX iccex; // INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX structure
iccex.dwSize = sizeof (INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX);
iccex.dwICC = ICC_TREEVIEW_CLASSES;
InitCommonControlsEx (&iccex);
which is exactly the same as a MS example.
I got the same error
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__InitCommonControlsEx@4 referenced in function "long __stdcall AddRecord(struct HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)" (?AddRecord@@YGJPAUHWND__@@IIJ@Z)
Any suggestions as to what to do next?
Thanks

Hi
I just solved the problem by adding the COMCTL32.LIB to my library includes.
Thanks

ok i have a question...
I am working on a project right now whos base class is CFormView... When i create dialog boxes from the main application they do not minimize into the taskbar - instead they minimize to the bottom of the screen just above the taskbar area... Is there anyway to make these dialog boxes minimize into the taskbar - for example - AOL INSTANT MESSENGER - each chat conversation box that opens up minimizes into the taskbar and eventually they start stacking up on each other....
is there a setting i have to change in the dialog boxes properties? perhaps change the owner of the window???
HELP!

Hi All,
I've put some macros together, and I would like to see what my code looks like after the macros have been handled by the preprocessor. I remember that there is a way to do this in Visual Studio, but I can't rememebr exaclty how.
Anyone know?
Thanks

You can use the /E switch (preprocess to stdout) or /P switch (preprocess to a file). Run cl /? for a full list of switches.

Hello,
How to round a number into nearest integer in C++?
Is there any function to do that?
THX!!!
|
|
|
|
|
double a_bouble_val = 23,34;
int an_integer = (int)a_double_val;
This small code will assign an_integer to 23.
double a_bouble_val = 23,7;
int an_integer = (int)a_double_val;
This, will assign an_integer to 24.
Did I understand you?

Actually, this will evaluate to 23. Casting a double to an int will always round to the whole number given (down for positive numbers, up for negative)

You can use floor(), ceil(), or just cast to an integer.
This code rounds a value to the nearest integer.
int rounded = (int)(doubleval + 0.5);

it rounds up, to the nearest integer.
this goes both ways.
int i = (d > 0 ? (int)(d + 0.5) : (int)(d - 0.5));

It's a little more complicated if you are going to be dealing with both positive and negative numbers, as the floor() function moves the decimal number toward zero and the ceil() function moves the decimal number away from zero. The value of floor(-23.7) is -23, where rounded you probably would want -24. Adding 0.5 to the value before casting to an int works only for positive values, and not for negatives. There, you would have to subtract.
floor(-23.7 - 0.5) = floor(-24.2) = 24<br />
floor( 23.7 + 0.5) = floor( 24.2) = 24

show yur code where you subclass it.

BOOL CMyStatic::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)
{
if (!CStatic::PreCreateWindow(cs)) { return FALSE; }
cs.style |= SS_OWNERDRAW;
return TRUE;
}
void CMyStatic::PreSubclassWindow()
{
CStatic::PreSubclassWindow();
ModifyStyle(0, SS_OWNERDRAW);
}
I did both just to make sure. Winspector Spy shows SS_OWNERDRAW style in the window styles, but no call to DrawItem occurs.

what about the code creating the instance of CMyStatic on the toolbar?

Good question, i remember there are issues with toolbars and messages not getting routed. i think that the solution is to override PreTranslateMessage and handle them ur self.
Did you watch messages with spy and see if the frame or dialog is receiving the DRAWITEM for that window?

Well i don't believe CStatic get input focus. Perhaps you just need a custom window so derive from CWnd. Then do ur OnPaint handler. For focus rect drawing look at CDC::Draw3dRect/DrawEdge/DrawState
Something there should do the trick.

WM_DRAWITEM is not sent to the owner draw control but to the owner window (the dialog it is on) of the control.
No need to subclass...

I have created a List box using CreateWindow in my app's client area. Is there any way I can make the background of my list box transparent so that it is the same color as the background of my main window?
Thanks in advance,
Paddy.

Get the handle to the device context of the listbox (HDC) and use the Win32 function SetBkColor to set the color you want.
For more, see function SetBkColor in MSDN.
If you would like to use the same color as in your main window, you first have to get the standard color of your window, which is usually done by a call to GetSysColor.
Hope this helps,
-Dominik
