Re: How can I do a Dynamic Array like CByteArray for a STRUCT array ? Fazlul Kabir6-Oct-01 18:06 Fazlul Kabir 6-Oct-01 18:06  Yes, it's kinda *religious* to talk about the relative advantages (or disadvantages) of using container classes supported by MFC and STL. I guess, we all showed the original poster various ways of doing the same thing. It's up to him to decide which way to go. Cheers. // Fazlul Get RadVC today!

(With the Timer I want to update the view) Re: CListView with a Timer Andres Manggini5-Oct-01 10:43 Andres Manggini 5-Oct-01 10:43  This should be helpful: CWnd::SetTimer UINT SetTimer( UINT nIDEvent, UINT nElapse, void (CALLBACK EXPORT* lpfnTimer)(HWND, UINT, UINT, DWORD) ); Return Value The timer identifier of the new timer if the function is successful. An application passes this value to the KillTimer member function to kill the timer. Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0. Parameters nIDEvent Specifies a nonzero timer identifier. nElapse Specifies the time-out value, in milliseconds. lpfnTimer Specifies the address of the application-supplied TimerProc callback function that processes the WM_TIMER messages. If this parameter is NULL, the WM_TIMER messages are placed in the application’s message queue and handled by the CWnd object. Remarks Installs a system timer. A time-out value is specified, and every time a time-out occurs, the system posts aWM_TIMER message to the installing application’s message queue or passes the message to an application-defined TimerProc callback function. The lpfnTimer callback function need not be named TimerProc, but it must be defined as follows: void CALLBACK EXPORT TimerProc( HWND hWnd, // handle of CWnd that called SetTimer UINT nMsg, // WM_TIMER UINT nIDEvent // timer identification DWORD dwTime // system time ); Timers are a limited global resource; therefore it is important that an application check the value returned by the SetTimer member function to verify that a timer is actually available. Example // This example shows how to use CWnd::SetTimer, CWnd::KillTimer, and how to handle WM_TIMER messages. A timer is set up to send a WM_TIMER message to the main frame window every 2 seconds in OnStartTimer(). OnStopTimer will stop the timer by calling CWnd::KillTimer. OnTimer was set up through class wizard to handle WM_TIMER messages for the main frame window. In this example the PC speaker will beep every 2 seconds. void CMainFrame::OnStartTimer() { m_nTimer = SetTimer(1, 2000, 0); } void CMainFrame::OnStopTimer() { KillTimer(m_nTimer); } void CMainFrame::OnTimer(UINT nIDEvent) { MessageBeep(0xFFFFFFFF); // Beep // Call base class handler. CMDIFrameWnd::OnTimer(nIDEvent); } Andres Manggini. Buenos Aires - Argentina. How do I use CButton::Create() to make a push button check box? Bart-Man5-Oct-01 10:12 Bart-Man 5-Oct-01 10:12  Hello, I have the following code to make a push button check box, and it still draws the button as a check box. // Create an check box push button. m_blah4.Create(_T("My button"), WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|BS_CHECKBOX|BS_PUSHBUTTON, CRect(10,100,100,130), this, MY_BTN4); Does anyone have any suggestions, as to what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your help!!! Final Solution Bart-Man5-Oct-01 10:55 Bart-Man 5-Oct-01 10:55  Hello all, Here is my final solution to my original question: // Create an auto check box. m_blah4.Create(_T("My button"), WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|BS_PUSHLIKE|BS_AUTOCHECKBOX, CRect(10,100,100,130), this, MY_BTN4); Now the button works like the push button check box in the resource.

Connect() timeout Alex Griffing5-Oct-01 9:27 Alex Griffing 5-Oct-01 9:27  When I do CSocket sock; sock.Connect(place_that_doesn't_exist); Connect waits like half a minute before returning. I could do some kind of multithreading or overlapped IO completion ports (neither of which I have any experience with) but it would work for me just to have it return after a second or two if it can't connect. I was thinking along the lines of something like sock.SetTimeout(500_milliseconds); or setsockopt(sock.m_socket, SO_TIMEOUT, 500_milliseconds); Any suggestions? Thanks! - Alex Griffing Overriding CWndClassInfo in ATL 5-Oct-01 8:05 5-Oct-01 8:05  I am having trouble with overriding CWndClassInfo in ATL/WTL. I am working to set the cursor for a CListViewCtrl derived class (ListCtrl) to be a cross (IDC_CROSS) and remove the CS_HREDRAW & CS_VREDRAW to eliminate the flicker during resizing (Q183210). I thought I made the appropriate changes (see below) yet the view does not display the cross cursor and the flicker is still present. What else is needed to invoke the ListCtrl::GetWndClassInfo()? Are there examples of what I am trying to do in ATL? // ListCtrl.h class ListCtrl : public CWindowImpl<listctrl, clistviewctrl=""> { public: ListCtrl(); virtual ~ListCtrl(); BEGIN_MSG_MAP(ListCtrl) MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_PAINT, OnPaint) END_MSG_MAP() public: LRESULT OnPaint(UINT /*uMsg*/, WPARAM /*wParam*/, LPARAM /*lParam*/, BOOL& /*bHandled*/); static CWndClassInfo& GetWndClassInfo() { static CWndClassInfo wc = { { sizeof(WNDCLASSEX), 0, StartWindowProc, 0, 0, NULL, NULL, NULL, (HBRUSH)(COLOR_WINDOW+1), NULL, _T("ListCtrl"), NULL }, NULL, NULL, IDC_CROSS, TRUE, 0, _T("") }; return wc; }; }; // Status.cpp Status::Status() { list_view = new ListCtrl; } Status::~Status() { if (list_view) delete list_view; } HRESULT Status::open(const HWND hWnd) { if (list_view) { RECT rect; ::GetClientRect(hWnd, &rect); HWND h = list_view->Create(hWnd, rect, _T("ListCtrl"), WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS | WS_CLIPCHILDREN | LVS_REPORT, WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE); return S_OK; } Display attributes john john mackey5-Oct-01 7:32 john john mackey 5-Oct-01 7:32  How can I access the information about my display?

Thanks! Re: Disabling item in CListCtrl Masaaki Onishi5-Oct-01 9:59 Masaaki Onishi 5-Oct-01 9:59  Hello, the codegurus around the world.;) I don't understand cleary what means "disable the item". But, I guess that you want to make the mouse click on some itme on the list disable? Maybe, after you subclass CMyListCtrl, and create struct value like ItemProperties, and keep the record of which index item will be disabled (kill the mouse clicking). If you disable one all row, colum or one special cell, these are different stories and you need more codes to do these. You also add the code to show how this item is disable, and must redraw the index disabled. But, this kind of the code seems to be very interesting. If someone creates this kind of the control, please post your new class to Codeproject.

It should be as width as the screen and as height as the taskbar (may have a constant height). The user shouldn't be able to move the bar. How should I start? Do I need to create deskband, or does a simple dialog based app teh same job?

(it's actually in winbase.h). it's what TRACE ends up calling. ODS will even dump stuff in release mode, hence the #ifdef _DEBUG. you can even use the lovely WinDBG32 app to capture these message outside of the IDE. -c ------------------------------ Smaller Animals Software, Inc. http://www.smalleranimals.com Re: AfxTrace without MFC Steven Mitcham5-Oct-01 8:28 Steven Mitcham 5-Oct-01 8:28  Thanks, I gave it a try and it worked.
