This is the correct syntax, and will work as you require. The original syntax that you used would work, but only if the defines had the value 0 or 1, or if they were not defined (the preprocessor assumes a definition to have the value 0 if it is not defined). If they had any other value, it would not work correctly.
The reason you were getting compiler errors was because the defined operator operates on an identifier, not on an expression.

It would mean I'm going to change alot of like this in my program.
Relying on the preprocessor to assign 0 to not-defined defines could be dangerous. Unless it is specified so in some ANSI/ISO standard ?

Absolutely. I'm not sure if it's in the standard or not.

Hi

CComboBox* pLB = (CComboBox*) GetDlgItem(IDC_CNOCALLS);
int nIndex = pLB->GetCurSel();
DWORD n = pLB->GetItemData( nIndex);
however im getting a error on DWORD, and its not giving me the value in the combo box
can ne1 help
thanks

If you want the value of a specific item you need the GetText()-function. Try this:
<br />
CString strText;<br />
pLB->GetText(nIndex, strText);<br />
strText will then hold the value of the item at position nIndex. If you need an interger (if your combobox holds numbers() just do int number = atoi(strText);.

Try to Use
GetLBTextLen
GetLBText
GetItemData is a different function..check out MSDN.

Hi..All
i am using a Bitmap in a CBrush to display the pattern in a rectangular box at many places in the drawing of my vc++ application..
the problem is that on certain plotters the pattern is not displayed at all
although it is coming and very good in normal view and print preview.
and on some plotters it just display the crosses all over the rectangle.
and some time the pattern is displayed but it is so close that whole rectangle color becomes black...
Does any body have any idea why...
That would be very nice of him.
Thanks

Some vector based devices do not support that kind of drawing. Try calling GetDeviceCaps(DT_PLOTTER) when in print mode, and if it is true, don't draw using the brush. Typically, vector devices don't support the more advanced printing, like raster devices.
onwards and upwards...

Hi,
I am planning to develop a tool. It needs to work on a folder of size 2 GB. First it needs to remove the read only attribute for all the files in the folder. Then a third party tool will do some more processing and then my tools needs to delete all the files. This tools needs to work on Win2K. Presently i am using attrib and del dos commands. it takes hell lot of time to dothis task. I would like to develop something at the NTFS level to do this. Any pointers, samples will be of alot of help.
Regards,
Cutti

Unless I've misunderstood, couldn't you just use the Win32 API or MFC to change file attributes and delete files? CFile provides methods GetStatus(), SetStatus() and Remove() that may fit the bill.

Yes, something like:
void SetFilesToNotReadonly(LPCSTR cpFileDir)
{
CString cFileName;
WIN32_FIND_DATA sFD;
CString cFileSpec = CString(cpFileDir) + CString("*.*");
HANDLE hFind = FindFirstFile((LPCSTR)cFileSpec,&sFD);
if (hFind != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
if (!(sFD.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY))
{
cFileName = CString(cpFileDir) + sFD.cFileName;
SetFileAttributes(cFileName, sFF.dwFileAttributes & (~FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY));
}
while (FindNextFile(hFind,&sFD))
{
if (!(sFD.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY))
{
cFileName = CString(cpFileDir) + sFD.cFileName;
SetFileAttributes(cFileName, sFF.dwFileAttributes & (~FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY));
}
}
FindClose(hFind);
}
}
onwards and upwards...

Hello,
how can i start another app from my application? After this i like to call the F4 Button?
Thanks in advance, Mark

ShellExecute() to start the other exe. To send a keystroke you might SendMessage(WM_KEYDOWN, ...) to the other application.

The simplest way is to use ShellExecute().
ShellExecute(NULL, NULL, _T("myprog.exe"), NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);Look at the docs on ShellExecute() to find out what the parameters do and how to use them. To find out whether it is successful or not, ShellExecute() returns a value >32 if it is successful, and <=32 if it is not.
Hope this helps,
Ryan

You want to call the F4 button? I'm not sure what you mean... You can kill the process using the TerminateProcess function (you got the handle from CreateProcess). If you want to simulate a press to F4 you can use the SendInput or keybd_event functions.
-Dominik
_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do??

Yep, i can call the .exe now when i press a button in my app. What i like to do is to simulate the pressing of F4 after this.
Because this starts a macro in the opened .exe.
I cannot understand the help for these functions you gave me and do not know which code to use for F4(Hardwareadress, number..???)
Do u have a code snip?
Thanks, Mark

SendMessage(wndOfStartedApp, WM_KEYDOWN, VK_F4, 0);
The first parameter is the HWND of the app you just started.
Instead of WM_KEYDOWN you might also try WM_KEYUP.

mmh, i use NULL for HWND when i start the app. Nothing happens..
Thanks, Mark
|
|
|
|
|
It is normal:
the HWND defines which window will receive the message, then if you send the KeyPress to a null window...
you should start your app, then find the window of that app and after that send the message there...
I think that you can also do it better, and in order to do so, you should take a look at CreateProcess(...).
hope this helps.
|
|
|
|
|
But how can i find the window of that app? It is a commercial one. By the way i think i have to wait till the app is up before i send the message there?
Thanks, Mark

If you launch it by using the CreateProcess api, one of the parameters is a PROCESS_INFORMATION structure. This gets filled in with the THREAD HANDLE of the primary thread for the newly lauched app. After the CreateProcess call returns, wait for the app to initialize by calling WaitForInputIdle(). When this returns, then you should be able to simulate a keystroke with the PostThreadMessage api, passing the new app's main thread handle as the parameter.
Good Luck!

Hi.
Does anyone know if there is a DirectX application wizard for use with the VC++ .NET version.
I am looking for something similar to the app wizard that is available for use under VC++ 6 ?.
Thanks.

;PDear All,
Is there any API which may simulate Deltree command.
I am developing a application for Windows 2000/NT/XP in which i want to remove all contents of a given folder .
Or any alternate way to achieve the same ?
Thanks
Rohit

Yes. You'll have to recursively go through the folders, delete each file, and then finally delete the folder. Of course, if a folder contains subfolders, then you'll need to go through that folder and delete all the files and subfolders in it etc., hence the recurson.
