Yes it looks like that's what is required for the conversion, unfortunately I can't change the fact that at one end is a float and at the other end is a double because I'm working between two COM components from different developers.

Well...knowing the representation of floats and doubles (IEEE754), you could use code like this (it'll work for normalized floating point numbers).
float x = whatever;
long y = *(long*)(&x);
const __int64 signBit = (y & 0x80000000) << 32;
const __int64 exponent = (__int64( ((y >> 23)&0xff) - 127 + 1023)) << 52;
const __int64 fraction = (__int64(y & 0x007fffff)) << 29;
__int64 ly = signBit | exponent | fraction;
double lx = *(double*)(&ly);
This will convert float => double with no loss of precision or change in value.
However, I think you'll find that it is the same operations as are done by the floating point part of the processor when it does the float => double conversion, in which case, you might just as well use a straight C assignment...

I remember I had this problem before too and I had to do it as the following:
<br />
float flt = 2.7f;<br />
TCHAR sz[65] = _T("");<br />
_stprintf(sz, _T("%.3f"), flt);
<br />
double dbl = _tcstod(sz, NULL);<br />
Now, if you watch the value of dbl you'll see 2.7000000000000, which is what you expected...

I want to set some member variables of my CDialog (modeless).
SO I do stuff like
CImageDisplay* pImageDisplay = new CImageDisplay;
if (pImageDisplay == NULL) return;
BOOL ret = pImageDisplay->Create(IDD_IMAGEDISPLAY, this);
Where do I put pImageDisplay->width = 100; ? Before the create() or after the create()?

I tried both - it doesnt seem to matter...
Appreciate your help,

It doesn't matter because you've reserved memory space for the dialog once you have declared the dialog variable.
When you create the dialog you are telling windows to attach a dialog resource,which is the parent window...
But the class it's already created once you've declared the variable.
hope this helps...

Thats really interesting - I was trying to deduce the sequence of events with stepping and breakpoints but the IDD_DIALOG resource connection didnt show up with my strategy so your response makes that clearer!! Thanks.

Fellow cpians , how can I hook to a file to catch that the file changed ?
I'm must code a application that is always monitoring a file on the filesystem and every time that the file is updated , I need to be notified of the fact to reload the file data in my COM Server.
Some Windows message , DDE event , hooking mechanism (In a long distant past I already have done something like this, but it's part of my forgotten memories)???
Thanks in advance.

ReadDirectoryChangesW
OR
FindFirstChangeNotification

The 2 functions don't work only on a single file , but making a directory with only 1 file should do the trick.
So many thanks for your help

Hi,
I am running into a problem with deriving an atl class. I am using VS.Net and have run the wizard to create an non-attributed atl service. I want it to be an interactive service so I decided that I would need to derive the CAtlServiceModuleT class and add m_status.dwServiceType |= SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS; to make the service an interactive process.
This is the class that I created in a header file I call ATLINTERACTIVEPROCESS.H
#pragma once
#include <atlbase.h>
#ifndef _ATL_NO_SERVICE
template <class T, UINT nServiceNameID>
class ATL_NO_VTABLE CAtlInteractiveServiceModuleT : public CAtlServiceModuleT<T, nServiceNameID>
{
public :
CAtlInteractiveServiceModuleT() throw()
{
m_status.dwServiceType |= SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS;
}
};
#endif
</code>
When I compile this I get the following errors
ATLINTERACTIVESERVICE.h(7) : error C2504: 'CAtlServiceModuleT' : base class undefined
ATLINTERACTIVESERVICE.h(15) : see reference to class template instantiation 'CAtlInteractiveServiceModuleT<t,>' being compiled
ATLINTERACTIVESERVICE.h(7) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ',' before '<'
I would assume that including <atlbase.h> would "define" the base class.
If I take the code and drop it in the atlbase.h header file just under CAtlServiceModuleT<> everything compiles fine. Unfortunately I don't want to keep this code in the atlbase.h file because it could be changed by microsoft and my collegues would have to have a "special" version of atlbase.h to compile this service. Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong? Can derived template classes exist in other header files than their base classes? Are there defines that I am missing? As a side note is there a way to debug the compile pass?
Please help!!
Cheers,
Clint

The 'CAtlServiceModuleT' class is hidden by the ATL namespace.

I have to parse a CSV file, make changes to it and then re-write to another file... The CSV part is ok, but when I use \r in CStrings, I get a "block" character.. I know it is ok but if I view it in Notepad or any other file viewer, there won't be any carriage returns, just those characters representing the \r...
Why is that?
Thanks!

In Windows, \r needs to be paired with \n to give you the carriage return. So use "\r\n".

That is expected.
In MS-DOS, and derived stuff like Win32, the EOL sequence is CRLF. Either CR or LF alone is just an unprintable control character, much like BEL or anything else !isprint().

In my app, I have an MDI window but when I close all its child windows, all the menu items in the default window for the parent frame are disabled, even though I have message handlers for them in that frame's class. Any ideas of what is going wrong and how i can work around this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is from really dusty memory, but I think with an MFC based MDI app, you have two menus. One for when there are no documents opened and another for when at least one document is opened. When you close all child windows, I think the framework will replace the menu. Since you have written handlers for the menu that is displayed when a child window is opened, these commands will be enabled. However if you have not written handlers for the menu that is displayed when no documents are opened, then these commands will be disabled. Just me guessing here.

I'm trying to do hit tests in a defined region using CRgn::PtInRgn(x,y) and keep getting an assertion failure message (as if the object was not instantiated). Here's the situation:
CRgn rgn;
rgn.CreateEllipticRgn(a,b,c,d);
if (something)
...if (something else)
......if (rgn.PtInRgn(x,y)) //assertion here
but
if (something)
...if (something else)
......CRgn rgn;
......rgn.CreateEllipticRgn(a,b,c,d);
......if (rgn.PtInRgn(x,y)) //no assertion this time
This is as if the CRgn object is not recognized w/in a block. Can anyone help me out? Thx,
Ralf.

The only thing I can come to think of, is that the "something" code stomps on stack memory it shouldn't.

If the user specifies a folder and I need to make sure there is such a folder, how do I check its existence in code?
Appreciate your help,
ns

|

I use CreateDirectory(path). if it fails with error 183, it already exists. The only draw back is that if you need to check with them if you want to create it, you already have.

A call to FindFirstFileEx (also suitable for folders) returns an error code when the specified file doesn't exist - so you can easily check the folder's validity.

I would do ::GetFileAttributesEx(strFolderPath, GetFileExInfoStandard, NULL) and check the return value and/or check ::GetLastError() for a return of 2 ("System cannot find the file specified")
