Hello,
I am looking for a virtual machine simulator like VMware. VMware is the perfect tool, but unfortunately it's not that cheap.
Do you know a free virtual machine simulator? I tried bochs, SimOSv2 and plex86 but none of them convinced me...
-Dominik
_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do??

If you want to only run Linux on the Virtual Machine, you could try UML (User Mode Linux). I know, the acronym they chose sucks, but it's a good, free one.
If you want to run Windows, have a dual 3Ghz P4 with hyperthreading and accept the VM performance to be of a Celeron 300Mhz, and do not care about having a BSOD every 5 minutes, I would recommend you bochs and plex86.

To be precise, VMWare is far from a simulator. It's not even fit to be called an emulator. Let's call it by it's accepted name, a VM (Virtual Machine) monitor.
I also feel compelled to tell you that your statement that VMWare is a "perfect tool" is not only highly subjective, it's also flat out wrong. VMWare has quite a few flaws when it comes to virtualize a PC, but I digress.
There is AFAIK no "PC" machine simulators on the market (free or otherwise). Possibly VirtualPC (or whatever it is/was called) comes close, but I don't know.
The only free (as in Free Software) ones I know of are the ones you have already counted: Bochs , which is a cross platform PC emulator, and Plex, which is an IA32 VM monitor.
Since SimOS (according to their webpage) only simulates MIPS R4000, R10000 and the DEC Alpha CPUs, I won't even count it. Also, if you ever ran a real simulator in software you know how slow they are (meaning software such as "Flight Simulators" should often, if not always, actually be named "Flight Emulators") - making them close to unusable for anything but research.
Now that we've got the technical stuff out of the way, perhaps you could tell us what you want to do (though please follow up in a more appropriate forum, since this has exacly nothing to do with Visual C++ - even that I also am in error for even commenting on your question here).

"Perfect tool" for me. I don't know any better one (even commercial), I tried the demo version of VMware 4 and liked it in general, therefor I called it a perfect tool. This was a bit exaggerated and too general, I agree.

Yes, I know. But I am not developing a real time shooter .

No, since there seem to be no free VMs I won't continue this idea.
Thanks for your reply and sorry for posting this into the Visual C++ forum

For some of my projects, not all of the classes that appear in my workspace, or even in the Class view window appear in the Class Wizard. Why is this and how can I fix Class Wizard so that it will show all used classes in the project? (I'm using VC++6)
thanks for any help.

Try this:
delete the *.clw file in your project´s directory (while your project is open in Visual Studio). then press Ctrl+W and click in add-all (or something like that button) this should add all the classes in Class Wizzard.
I hope it help you.

Hallo Leute !!!

ist das beste, was es gibt, aber es ist nur noch auf Englisch zu erhalten.
Also wollte ich mal fragen, ob Jemand mir das deutsches Exemplar leihen oder verkaufen könnten.
Ich würde auch eine Leih-Gebühr bezaheln und natürlich die Post!!!
Ich bin etwas verzweifelt, weil kein mensch diese Buch verkauft....
Bitte melden unter:

So us English-speaking folks can help you:
Hello of people!!! I look for the book Windows programming with MFC. of Jeff Prosise on German. is the best, which gives it, but it is to be only received on English. Thus I wanted to ask times whether someone that German copy to me could borrow or sell. I became also a leih-Gebuehr bezaheln and naturally the post office!!! I despaired somewhat, because no humans sell this book.... Please announce under: cadnt@web.de
You might e-mail Mr. Prosise directly and see if it was even published in German.

Hi guys
I'm trying to implement like a scoreboard app and I'm using CSstatics with a bitmap inside.
The problem is that I cannot align correctly in the VC++ Editor.
The 2 first are correctly aligned but the third one is, or one pixel too far or one pixel too near. Is this a common problem to you?
Maybe this has a silly solution but I'm loosing a lot of time, trying and not getting the controls aligned.
Best Regards
Dr.Pi

are you using guides 7
if it becomes too much of a real-estate problem in the resource editor, just skip it and do it all manually in the code.

maybe a case of bad conversion between DLU (dialog loginal unit) and pixel.

Hi Max
Could you or somebody else explain me how this (dlu & pixel problem)is possible and how to solve?
I've just started a new Project.
Create a Dialog Based app.
create 5 cstatic and tried to align.
Where I could be doing something wrong?
Or is not my fault?
Best Regards and thanks

Hi Max

But still are not aligned on screen.
Any idea?

OnFinalRelease gets called yet the exe itself is left running. 
vbs code that calls it looks like this:
<br />
dim o<br />
set o = createobject("some.progid")<br />
set o = nothing<br />

It's normal for Windows. Windows will keep the exe running for a period of time, just in case another object is created - to help performance. There is a timeout period where the exe gets unloaded if no object is created in this time, but I forget how long it is.

I have a customized Find Dialog (based on CFindReplaceDialog) to which I've added amongst other things a static text box for displaying results of the search in the CListCntl to which the dialog is attached. No problem. Then I thought it would be nice visually to say display "Find failed" in red, success in green. For something that seems like it should be dirt simple, I've plowed through more MSDN doc and CodeProject seemingly related items than I can believe. I must be missing something. Recommendations? Thanks.

One solution is to add a handler for WM_CTLCOLOR. Update color of the static control inside the handler.

Yes. That was one avenue that led to a feeling of stupidity. Put a handler in the Find Dialog and SendMesssage to its window. I have yet to find a description of the proper setup of WM_CTLCOLOR wparam, lparam. Do you know a good source for such info? Thanks.
Alex.

Look up WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC in the MSDN Library.
Trust in the code Luke. Yea right!
|
|
|
|
|
Silly me, searching on just WM_CTLCOLOR.  I see COLORSTATIC is restricted to a thread, but I can work around that.
Many thanks, John. Between you and kuphryn I feel the Force may be with me again.
