WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW is an extended window style. You need to include it in the dwExStyle field, not the style field.

Hope this helps,

Hello,

how can one detect if file and/or printer sharing is enabled?

I've found a key in the registry but I assume there is also a Windows API function?

Confused | :confused:

-Dominik

_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do??

Depends. If you have a console application with "main" you can just parse all argc elements in the argv array.

If you write a windows executable you can parse the LPSTR lpCmdLine parameter in WinMain.

If you don't have access to the WinMain function you can use the API function LPTSTR GetCommandLine(VOID) to get a pointer to the parameter string.

Or you can use this class: http://www.codeproject.com/cpp/cmdlineparser.asp[^]

Hope that helps Big Grin | :-D

comma operator

how come the comma operator isnt used more often i was able to write a whole function using 1 semi color at the end so how come people dont use the commas?
is there a performance reason or somethting?

Re: comma operator

Dave Bryant19-Aug-03 16:44

Mainly because it makes it a lot harder to see what is going if the comma operator is used for anything more complicated than a fairly trivial statement. If you write a complex function in one line using the comma operator, and then come back to it 6 months or a year later, it would be considerably more difficult to understand what is going on, than if it were written clearly in multiple statements.

It is mainly useful in contexts where only a single statement is allowed - for example, in the increment statement of a for loop.

for ( int i = 0, j = 10 ; i < nCount ; ++i, --j ) {
// ...
}

Comma is used heavily in our code... while you declaring functions. For example:

void Foo(int iNumber<font size=7 face="Times New Roman">,</font> bool bFlag);
BOOL Move(HWND hWnd<font size=7 face="Times New Roman">,</font> LONG x<font size=7 face="Times New Roman">,</font> LONG y<font size=7 face="Times New Roman">,</font> ULONG cx<font size=7 face="Times New Roman">,</font> ULONG cy);

im talking about where semi colons are used
like this

void main() {
function(),
function2(),
function3();
}

Because commas are used for other things. Semicolons are used for the end of a statement, so why not use them? If you use commas, the code basically looks like one big function call. I'm not sure why you'd want to use commas over semicolons.

file extensions

Hi Im wondering how i can associate certain file extension to my program and have it run the program when the person opens a file with that extension any help is appreciated

thanks

Re: file extensions

Mahesh Varma19-Aug-03 18:12

Hi

To associate a file extension to your program, you should create a registry entry under

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
-->Software
-->Microsoft
-->Windows
-->CurrentVersion
-->Explorer
-->FileExts.

1. Under FileExts create a key with same name as your file extension.
(Eg: For bitmap files you can find a key named .bmp under FileExts.)

2. Also create a subkey named "OpenWithlist".

3. Add a string value named "a".

4. Set the value data of this key as your application path.
(Eg: for paint you can find the entry mspaint.exe as value data)

Hi

Sorry i made a mistake.

1. Under the FileExt key, add a string value named "Application".
2. Set the value data of this string value as your application path.
(Eg. For .bmp you can see this value as mspaint.exe)

Checkboxes and CTreeCtrl!?!?!

Hello,

I've got a tree control on my dialog with checkboxes. Everything works fine, except that I cannot find a proper way to check wheter the checkbox is checked or not Confused | :confused:

.

It's probably a simple tiny thing, but I can't find it! Does anybody know what I have overlooked?

Thanks in advance.

If you are using MFC use this:
BOOL CTreeCtrl::GetCheck( HTREEITEM hItem ) const;

If you are using Win32 API, you have to send a message:

TVITEM item;
item.mask = TVIF_HANDLE | TVIF_STATE;
item.hItem = hItem;
item.stateMask = TVIS_STATEIMAGEMASK;
::SendMessage(m_hWnd, TVM_GETITEM, 0, (LPARAM)&item);
bChecked = (BOOL)(item.state >> 12) -1;

Hope that helps Big Grin | :-D

_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
