Yeah, yeah, I know there's no quickview under 2000... I'm not asking that.
I wrote a quickview fileviewer under 98 for a proprietary format we use, and I'm wondering what my options are for porting it (somehow) to Win2K. Quickview plus doesn't look like it's expandable, or am I wrong? Is there any way to just use the old viewer somehow, or modify it slightly?
Thanks,
Josh

I'd say write a shell extension that launches a viewer program. That way, you stay integrated with Explorer and can reuse that code that displays your files. Check out PicaView which takes this approach to viewing graphics files.

Sorry,
I have screened previous threads and found that
「GINA」 is the keyword.
Viewed MSDN, searched with that keyword and I could even get sample codes.
Thanks Jim and those who might have took a look at this topic

Our subclassed CButtons are receiving Windows message 0x128 (296) when tabbing out of certain controls in the same dialog tab. This causes the button to draw over (or leave unpainted?) the art we want to see. In our case, the caption on the button has the standard gray button background, which we don't want. The bad drawing only occurs once in the life of the dialog. Covering/reexposing the bad areas causes them to redraw correctly.
If we return 0 from message 0x128 (not passing it to CButton), the problem disappears.
This occurs only on Windows 2000 and XP. Does anyone know what undocumented Windows message 0x128 (296) is supposed to do?

The answer: This message 0x128 is WM_UPDATEUISTATE, which is documented in the MSDN library. I would have found this if I had inspected WINUSER.H from a recent version of the Platform SDK. Thanks to Usenet correspondents for this information.

Hello,
in win98 and win2k you can refresh the device tree by clicking on "refresh" in the device manager (control panel/system/hardware). Windows is then searching for new plug'n'play-devices. I want to do this refresh in my own installation program, maybe by a dll-function-call or something linke this. So far I can only reboot the computer to force the refresh. But a reboot is not really necessary. Could anyone explain me how to do such a refresh with my own src ? Thanx.
Bye.
Elmar.

Hi all,
I have a socket application which is running on Windows 2000. My socket application has been using local machine IP address to create a socket. Okay. at run time of the application, user can change local machine IP address throught network properties. Now in windows 2000, we dont need to restart machine after IP changes. After IP changes my application's communication will break. It want to restart again. So is there any way to know IP changes in my application, like IP change events or something?.
All comments are welcome.

I want to port a windows' program to macintosh's,how can I do?

Do you have development tools for Mac w/ the same language as your Win-Apps. If so all you would need to do is learn new GUI and could just copy the meat of the app.

There's not much to it, other than learning the quirks of Mac OS. You'll probably want to stick with Carbon and OS X (and beyond), especially if your app is C/C++ based.
Another helpful suggestion : start thinking in more generic terms. Use STL instead of Windows APIs. Design classes from an interface, not from an implementation. These small steps will help you go a long way in make porting less painful.

I have this kind of problem some time ago (in other platforms), agree, and take it further:
First of all, create (or buy) a common framework for the two platforms. And code using only this framework. We used call it "get rid of OS soon" in the project.

Hello, the codegurus around the world.;)
In fact, I have the same experience as yours.
After I developed some application on English Windows, and
I imported the same application to Japanese Windows,
the button layout is so weired sometimes.
In this case, I will work on Japanese OS to fix these stuffs.
I heard that Windows XP improve to show English letter more clearly.
Have a nice day!

Make sure the FONT line in your dialog resource says "MS Shell Dlg". The VC resource editor defaults to "MS Sans Serif" which works incorrectly on DBCS languages.

The error message I get is "Network request is unsupported". I have
installed Client for Microsoft Windows, File and Printer sharing for
Microsoft networks, NetBios, NetBEUI and TCP/IP. I can access the DOS
computer from NT, 95, 98 and ME.
Any ideas?

Hello all,
I need to perform some operation on some old 16 bit application (compiled under borland). Operation requires some text drawing (custom text control) and there is a problem. I use script which calls about 5000 such operations. After circa 500th there is a GDI problem. The result is that I receive dialog box "GDI cannot execute operation" and content of every window is not painted correctly (looks like global GDI failure). I tried to peridically closing this app, but I didn't notice any improve.
I wonder is there any solution of this? Maybe I should try to change OS to Win9x, which has different old Win app emulation? Or maybe there is some app, which 'cleans' unused GDI resources? Any anser will be appreciate.
I use Win2000, 128MB RAM, 32MB Video.
Regards
Bartek

If don't know if this is possible to do from a script. But, if you could kill the "NTVDM" process (Windows NT Virtual DOS Machine) process, the GDI resources used by 16-bit programs should be free'ed...

Yes, thank you - I found this method useful yesterday. Instead of killing NTVDM process - I kill wowexec (all resources are freed, too). I wonder which method is more correct?
