Yes that is correct. What's the best way to send the message to the document after the function is done saving?

By using SendMessage(). Put the message handler in the document class.

should I send the message? The document doesn't have a handle, but SendMessage requires a windows handle.
Thanks.

See if this article sheds any light on MFC's message/command routing.

How do you add the controls you mentioned to the view? From the book/tutorials I've read it only shows how to add controls to the dialogs.
|
|
|
|

Like I mentioned, you have to have a CFormView-based view.

I am trying to write a whole lot of data into a file using serialize. When I use CString It is writing anempty string. ANy help would be appreciated. Following is the Code.
if(ar.IsStoring())
{
ar << (COLORREF) m_clrMapColor;
ar << (int) m_nMapNo;
ar << (CString)m_strName;
int ShapeListCount = m_ShapeList.GetCount();
ar << (int)ShapeListCount;
POSITION pos = m_ShapeList.GetHeadPosition();
for (int j = 0; j < m_ShapeList.GetCount(); j++)
{
CShape* shape = (CShape*)m_ShapeList.GetNext(pos);
shape->Serialize(ar);
}
endfor
}
endif

Have you verified that m_strName is non-empty at the point of serialization?

Thanks for your help.
The string is not empty. I tried ar.WriteString and ar.ReadString instead. But I am getting a set of new problems.
|
|
|
|
|
It is reading the string with an extra space and the next int is not getting the value that was stored.
|
|
|
|
|
Got it. I had to include ar.WriteString( "\n" ) after writing the string. Now it is working fine. Thanks for the help.

Why would you need a '\n' character to be serialized after the CString object?

Something is wrong other than in the code snippet you've provided. Try this. Create a dummy SDI application. Add a CString variable to the document class, and assign it a value in the document's constructor. Modify the Serialize() method to write that variable to the archive. Run the app and then close it. When asked for a file to save to, pick something that you don't mind overwriting. Now open that file as binary using Visual Studio. Do you see the correct value?

When I did what you suggested I did see the string in the file. I am not sure what is going on. COuld you please explain. One more thing, I can overwrite a file, but am unable to create new files. Would greatly appreciate any help.

Go ahead and add a few more member variables (e.g., int, float) to the document class. Then modify the Serialize() method to load and store these new variables. To more closely mimic what your original application was doing, put the CString variable in between the other two.

I did the following
void CEX1Doc::Serialize(CArchive& ar)
{
if (ar.IsStoring())
{
// TODO: add storing code here
ar << m_nInt;
ar << strName;
ar << fFloat;
}
else
{
// TODO: add loading code here
ar >> m_nInt;
ar >> strName;
ar >> fFloat;
}
}
When I view the file in Notepad, I see the string but the rest are only boxes. Thanks for being so patient. This is the first time I am using Serialize to save Data. AS you said there is something wrong with the code. It can only save on an existing file, but if I enter a new FileName, It is giving me the following error.
filecore.cpp
Line 238
Thanks once again for all the help

Notepad is a poor choice for viewing serialized (i.e., binary) files. Use Visual Studio instead.

Have you looked at line 238 of FileCore.cpp?
I know why the assertion itself fires, but I don't know why the file has not been opened at that point. I dummied up an SDI application just now and it worked fine. The only additional thing I added that was not mentioned before is a call to SetModifiedFlag(TRUE) inside if the OnNewDocument() method (right before the return statement). Something like:
CMyDoc::CMyDoc()
{
m_nAge = 26;
m_strName = "Crow, David";
m_dPay = 12.34;
}
BOOL CMyDoc::OnNewDocument()
{
if (!CDocument::OnNewDocument())
return FALSE;
SetModifiedFlag(TRUE);
return TRUE;
}
void CMyDoc::Serialize(CArchive& ar)
{
if (ar.IsStoring())
{
ar << m_nAge;
ar << m_strName;
ar << m_dPay;
}
else
{
ar >> m_nAge;
ar >> m_strName;
ar >> m_dPay;
}
}Run this as is. Close the application. When prompted, enter a filename. Comment out the initialization in the document's constructor. Set a breakpoint in the Serialize() method. Run the code again. The three variables should hold assigned the contents of the file. Yes?

You're not using the << operator in conjunction with ReadString() are you?

I am writing visual C++6.0 to read in a HTML document and modify it programmatically. I can successfully create a web browser object and navigate to the document. I also can successfully locate buttons and checkbox types and cause them to click. I am having problems with input type "text" that uses onKeyUp to navigate to a function and fill
in edit boxes. If anyone can help me with this, I would surely appreciate it.

You've not specified exactly what it is you are wanting to do. Saying that "I am having problems with input type..." is not very descriptive.

There is an input field on the HTML page to type a file name.
This is the code in the HTML document to handle it:
.RDF
onByCollectionFilenameChange() is the function that it jumps to and builds a download path to the 'C' drive with the file name. I can't programmatically cause this to happen.

This is still unclear to me at least. If you are saying that you want to call onByCollectionFilenameChange() from your C++ code then yes this is possible. See this article: http://www.codeproject.com/com/jscalls.asp[^]
You can call JS code from C++ and vice-versa. I do this in Surfulater (see sig).

I have a textbox that I'm using CFontDialog to change the font of. That works, but it also changes the font for every other control on the dialog as they're repainted. For instance, a command button will have its same font until I click on it, at which time the font changes to some big, ugly, bold font (maybe some type of default system font). I think that somehow the dialog's font is getting set to nothing because I tried opening up the font dialog sending in the dialog's current font and it's set the first time, but the next time I open up the font dialog, nothing is selected like I have no font for my dialog. Here's what I have:
ZeroMemory(&m_Font,sizeof(LOGFONT));
CFont* pFont = m_LockEdit.GetFont();
pFont->GetLogFont(&m_Font);
CFontDialog dlg(&m_Font);
dlg.m_cf.Flags |= CF_TTONLY;
if(dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
{
LOGFONT lgfnt;
dlg.GetCurrentFont(&lgfnt);
m_cFont.DeleteObject();
m_cFont.CreateFontIndirect( &lgfnt );
m_LockEdit.SetFont( &m_cFont, TRUE );
pFont->DeleteObject();
}
