#include <time.h>
time_t now;
struct tm *newtime;
char todaysDate[128];
// get the number of seconds since January 1, 1970
time(&now);
// get the current system date
newtime = localtime(&now);
todaysDate = asctime(newtime));

If using MFC,
COleDateTime dt = COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime();

Its very Simple.
SYSTEMTIME systime;
GetLocalTime ( &systime );
then
systime.wDay is the Day
systime.wMonth is the month and
systime.wYear is the year.
itn't it cool ? 
Best Regards,

The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from.

I have to get all the child windows from my main window. Once I have the hwnd How do I find out which window it is, I know I can call GetClassName on the hwnd but that's not good enough for me because most of my windows don't have names, I tried calling GetDlgCtrlID on the hwnd but it crashes because my hwnd is just enumerated. So what can I call to get either the resource ID of the window or some other information that will tell me which window it is. The following is the code I wrote to get the windows:
if(!EnumChildWindows ( AfxGetMainWnd()->m_hWnd, EnumChildProc, NULL))
{
TRACE("Unable to get child windows???\n");
return;
}
BOOL CALLBACK CMyDlg::EnumChildProc(HWND hwnd,LPARAM lParam)
{
TRACE ("Enumerated Child Window : %x\n", hwnd);
}
Is there some other function besides EnumChildWindows that can be used & will give me more useful data?
Thanks in advance

There are plenty of ways to accomplish this...
You can iterate with GetWindowTop, GetNextWindow;
To get class name: GetClassName
If you are the one creating them make all windows support some protocol:
make them all respond to some message like "WM_APP+100" with some value, or use existing message such as WM_GETTEXT.
If not, install some hook via InitCommonControlSex....
Anyway... good luck

Is it possible to attach a standalone scrollbar control to an edit control to overcome CEdit's inability to inform you of the scrollbar position? Why would they do that anyway?? Allow you to display a scrollbar but not retreive any of it's information?

How can I make a filled rectangle on the screen transparent using alpha blending. Any ideas?
Thanks

I believe W98 onwards has an AlphaBlend function. I also presented one in Windows Developers Journal a couple of years ago, if you look on their site for alphablend, you're sure to find it.

Hi all,
I have an MDI application. On selecting a menu item I open up a new document using CreateNewDocument(). But when I save the document, it shows illegal operation. I chose Full Server option for Step 3 of AppWizard, default file ext as ".d" in step 4 and CFormView as base class. My document is derived from COleServerDoc, by default. The code I tried for opening the document is below.
CTestView::OnMenuItem1()
{
CString s = ".d";
CTestApp* pApp = (CTestApp*)AfxGetApp();
CMultiDocTemplate* pDocTemplate = pApp->GetDocTemplate(s); //defined in CTestApp
if(!pDocTemplate)
return;
CTestDoc* pDoc = (CTestDoc*)pDocTemplate->CreateNewDocument();
pDocTemplate->SetDefaultTitle(pDoc);
CFrameWnd* pFrame = pDocTemplate->CreateNewFrame(pDoc,NULL);
pDocTemplate->InitialUpdateFrame(pFrame,pDoc,TRUE);
}
CMultiDocTemplate* CTestApp::GetDocTemplate(CString& sType)
{
CMultiDocTemplate* pDocTemplate;
POSITION pos = GetFirstDoctemplate();
while(pos)
{
pDocTemplate = (CMultiDoctemplate*)GetNextDocTemplate(pos);
CString ext;
if(pDocTemplate->GetDocString(ext,CDocTemplate::filterExt))
{
if(ext == sType)
return pDocTemplate;
}
}
return 0;
}
Why am I not able to save this document? The same code works well for MDI applications with CSrollView and CFormView base class and None option for Step 3 of AppWizard.

How do i terminate an application programatically from another program that i know is mine ?

If you have the handle to the application, use this Windows API function:
BOOL TerminateProcess(
HANDLE hProcess,
UINT uExitCode
);
See MSDN for more.
Hope that helps

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

Hi,
is just using WS_EX_RTLREADING for control enough to use right-to-left reading order or there's some more code to add? Do I need to use WS_EX_RIGHT as well?
Is WS_EX_RTLREADING automatically used when the OS is using right-to-left reading order? If I add this style with an OS in english, controls will display text in left-to-right order. I guess that only r-t-l is triggered automatically?
Thanks!

i was working with WS_EX_RTLREADING this option in VC 6.0 in not defined. so u should define it manually. when u use it the windows was mirrored. and all action was right to left. but this option closely was OS dependend. when u use it u should test controls such as edit box for proper operation (left align or right align text).

Is there a way to determine if a CEdit control's scrollbar has reach the bottom position?
|
|
|
|
|
I imagine GetScrollInfo() would do the trick.

Not if the user scrolls via the scroll thumb. In this way, the OnVScroll message is not activated by the windows framework...only by clicking the scrollbar arrow buttons.
Thank you for replying though!!

Has anyone worked with Installshield for Visual C++ . I basically need to create a folder in the start menu and then add a list of EXE's to it . Any help is appreciated !

Check out www.jrsoftware.org ... There's a free program on there called Inno Setup. (It does the same things as InstallShield). It has a wizard and you pretty much tell it the files that you want and it compiles them into one setup.exe file for you (or it can break it down). It also creates the start menu folder, desktop icons (if you desire), and uninstallation that's all automatic. It's very sweet. You can put together a full setup program complete with installation, multiple .EXE's, installation of .DLL's, .OCX's, etc in under 5 minutes!

I second Inno Setup, that's what we're using for our product.
