nPos is only valid if nSBCode is SB_THUMBPOSITION or SB_THUMBTRACK. when you let up the mouse, you get a WM_HSCROLL message with nSBCode set to SB_ENDSCROLL and nPos set to zero. You will probably get the same result if you just click on the slider's track bar.

The key is to use CSliderCtrl::GetPos() to get the current position, and simply ignore nPos.

m_pParentWnd->SetBrightness(pSld->GetPos());

Hi all,

Any Ideas how can i get access to IHTMLParamElement Interface... I have inserted an ActiveX control in MSHTML... i got IHTLMObjectElement interface pointer.. but now i need to change the properies of this ActiveX control at run time..

I have tried it via DOM. I get IHTMLDOMNode for ActiveX but i can't seem to have access to childNodes. It seems <object> tag doesn't support child nodes...

any ideas are welcome.. even a hint will do

cheers

Why can't you just directly set property of an ActiveX control through script or otherwise without messing with HTML?...

STL vector, set, etc, unique items

Hi
Is there any STL container like vector, set etc. that allows only unique items to be inserted into the list? Somewhat like that:

std::vector<string> arrayNames;
arrayNames.push_back("John");
arrayNames.push_back("Robert");
arrayNames.push_back("Luis");
arrayNames.push_back("John"); // <- WILL FAIL, ALREADY IN LIST

regards

You named one already....a 'set' will only hold unique values....the value you add is immediately it's key.

Although with set, the duplicate insert won't technically fail - you have to check the return value to see if it was a duplicte.

I am building a search engine desktop application. It works by putting in text in an Edit control then hitting the search button and let it search the entire internet looking for web pages with the occurences of my search text on them.
Ok the question is, how do i determine which web site the Application should start the search at without specifically specifying a web site.
Any ideas out there??

Are you implying a random web-search? In an socket applicant, a process can bind a TCP/IP socket to one connection. You cannot search multiple servers without creating more sockets.

Copy binary file to IStream - best bufsize?

Anonymous17-Oct-03 0:36

Hello!

I am copying a binary file like a document or some other maybe not-text file to a IStream.

I think IStream must use the Write() method to copy data but I must copy from my source one character at a time using fgetc(). I decide to create a char buffer of abitrary size of 80 chars and then fill buffer up to max size each time before I write to IStream.

I do not know if this is the best bufsize.

Does the bufsize matter?

How can I work out a better size for buf?

Can I add one char at one time to IStream?

Thank you.

Yes.
Bigger is better.
Yes but don't.

If you are also opening the FILE* yourself, there might be lots of better ways to do this, like memory-mapping the file and writing in page-sized chunks.

SetNameOf

I'm using the SetNameOf function to rename a folder relative to its parent folder.
The Renaming works well but the pidl I get back is not the one I expect.

When I rename C:\Foo\Bar to C:\Foo\Bar.temp
the pidl I get back corresponds to C:\Documents and Settings\Arjan\Desktop\Bar.temp

<br />
LPCOLESTR lpNewName = A2OLE(GetItemText(m_hLockedItem));<br />
LPITEMIDLIST pidlNew;<br />
			<br />
HRESULT hr = pParentFolder->SetNameOf(AfxGetMainWnd()->GetSafeHwnd(),<br />
					pidlRel,<br />
					lpNewName,<br />
					SHGDN_INFOLDER,<br />
					&pidlNew);<br />
<br />
CString s;<br />
SHGetPathFromIDList(pidlNew, s.GetBuffer(MAX_PATH));<br />
s.ReleaseBuffer();

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,

Arjan.

Looking for free FTP library to build FTP client.

Hello, everyone!

I am writing a FTP client and I do not want to write the program from scratch. Smile | :)

I want to know whether there are some free and open source FTP library that I can use to build my FTP client program quickly? For example, the library provides functions that can be used directly to upload a file, or connect to specified site.

Better the FTP library is based on standard C/C++ and not based on MFC.

regards,
Geo

I find they are all written in C# or based on MFC classes. Are there some FTP client library that is written in stardard C/C++ and not based on MFC? I want the library easy to port on different platforms.

Thanks, markkuk buddy!

After a quick view of the libraty, I have two more questions,

1. I can not find the source codes of the library and only the header files and .a or .dll file.
2. The library is too large and is general purpose, but I only want to use FTP utility, so are there some simple and tiny library that only provide FTP client function?

Can you help?

Geo

ftplib

ftplib is a set of routines that implement the FTP protocol. They allow applications to create and access remote files through function calls instead of needing to fork and exec an interactive ftp client program.

Yes it is,;P but its not open source. You can purchase Support if you need to or use the http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chilkat/[^] if you don't.

If you want anything cheaper than free Unsure | :~

then I'd start looking here[^] or even here[^] D'Oh! | :doh:
