A owns both B and C. C knows about A and B knows about A (A is their parent). C doesn't know anything about B, though i guess i could hack up something that would make it available.

what a mess Smile | :)

If A knows about both B and C, and if you want something to happen in B if C closes, just Have C post a message to A to indicate that C is closing, andf have A post a message to B that tells B that C has closed and B can react accordingly...

Sounds like you already have everything you need.

I'm capturing frames from a live video stream and every once in a while, I'll get a black and white image instead of color. Can anyone tell me what I might be doing to cause such a thing to happen?

Loose cable? Damaged card? It does not seem like a software problem to me. Maybe switching to another testing scenario (different cable/machine/card) could shed some light.

Hi, not really a programming question. Some punk deleted the start up icon of my visual C++ from the start menu and from the desktop. How do I bring it back?

Find MSdev.exe in

Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSdev98\bin

and drag/drop it to the part of the start menu you wish.

Happy programming!!

1. Where can I find a process-quering-class that can do the following:
I. Get a process's memory usage at a specific given time (Must).
II. Get a process's CPU usage at a specific given time (Must).
III. Can enumerate all running processes (Optional...).

2. I want to download CPop3Connection class that I found at this site
using the search engine. Unfotunately I can't find it.
I'll be very glad if someone will leave a link to it...

Hi,

I´m using Automation to have in one splitter window a Word window and in the right pane some buttons to add graphics tables...

The problem comes on XP, when I close that window, I get some strange error when it´s close ( OnSize is called after the window is destroyed), here is the code i call

void CReportFrame::OnClose() 
{
    TRY {
	// must destroy report bar manually
	CWnd* wnd = m_wndSplitter.GetPane(0, 0);
	wnd->DestroyWindow();
	delete wnd;

	// handle inplace Word view
	CReportDoc* pDoc = GetReportDoc();
	COleClientItem* pItem = pDoc->GetPrimarySelectedItem(GetReportWordView());
	if (pItem != NULL) {
	    pItem->Delete();
	    //delete pItem;
	}

	CFrameWnd::OnClose();

	delete pItem;
    } CATCH(CException, e) {
	AfxMessageBox("CReportFrame::OnClose : exception caught.");
	ASSERT(false);
	e;
    } END_CATCH;
}

Thanks in advance, Bye !

Maybe you should use: m_wndSplitter.DeleteView(0, 0);
instead of:

// must destroy report bar manually
CWnd* wnd = m_wndSplitter.GetPane(0, 0);
wnd->DestroyWindow();
delete wnd;

Calling CPropertSheet from and explicity linked Extension DLL

I'm trying to call a Property Sheet from an explicitly linked
Extenstion DLL.

The DoModal function is called but no Window appears, I get the trace message "CPropertySheet Returned Error code 0"?? But that means Success!

It Works for Dialogs etc..

Has anybody else had the same problem?

cheers

As a possible aolution, have you called AFX_MANAGE_STATE in the DLL code so that the correct dialog resources can be found?

problem with WM_MOUSEWHEEL

Hey,

I have a control derived directly from CWnd.

The WM_MOUSEWHEEL message is never sent to my window/control, I have also tried with spy++, but no WM_MOUSEWHEEL Confused | :confused:

I have tried to define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0400 in stdafx.h, but it made no difference...

Anyone got an idea?

Question on Hook or API Interception

I want to change the common dialog box for all applications, new, old, all of them. Should I use a CBT Hook or intercept the API itself. Are there other options? Any opions?

Thanks

Dynamic handlers?

Fredrik Skog10-Jan-02 3:16

Fredrik Skog

10-Jan-02 3:16

How does one go about to implement handlers for buttons that are created dynamically at runtime? E.g. I want to create a button which should run a program when pressed. The program to run is configured by the user. I was thinking of storing the program name within the button object. Then I could use one handler for all of the buttons, but how do I know which button it was that called the handler (in order to retrieve the program name)?

Cheers,

/Fredrik

You can use ON_COMMAND_RANGE to handle a range of commands:

class CMyDialog : public CDialog
{
afx_msg void OnHandleCommands(UINT nID);
DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
};

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyDialog, CDialog)
ON_COMMAND_RANGE(ID_COMMAND_FIRST, ID_COMMAND_LAST, OnHandleCommands)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

void CMyDialog::OnHandleCommands(UINT nID)
{
// nID contains the ID of the command to handle
}

flickerfree dialog painting..

i have made a dialog.. resize it by hand (it's an easy one)
now i've tried to make this whole shista flickerfree.. but i don't get it flickerfree..
i've tried "clip children" and "clip siblings".. but it still flickers..

any ideas?
thanks in advance

Override the dialog WM_ERASEBKGND message and do this :

BOOL CAnalysis::OnEraseBkgnd(CDC* pDC) 
{
	CRect	clip ;
	static int dont_erase_indexes[] =
			{
			IDC_WAVELENGTHS_LABEL,
			IDC_COMPONENTS,
			IDC_COMPONENTS_SPIN,
			IDC_HSCROLL
			} ;
	pDC->SaveDC() ;
	for (int i = 0 ; i < sizeof(dont_erase_indexes) / sizeof(int) ; i++)
		{
		GetDlgItem(dont_erase_indexes[i])->GetWindowRect(&clip);		// get rect of the control
		ScreenToClient(&clip);
		pDC->ExcludeClipRect(&clip);
		}
	pDC->GetClipBox(&clip);
    pDC->FillSolidRect(clip, GetSysColor(COLOR_BTNFACE));
	pDC->RestoreDC(-1) ;
	return FALSE;
}

Just add the ID's of the control on the dialog to the static array.

thank you for your reply..
now i know that i the control itself has got some problems with memory-drawing too..
but i really like that you can learn alot from code from other people
(i didn't knew that you could give -1 as a parameter to RestoreDC)

great thanks
