    - Theme issue in VC++. Hi All, I have created the application like TurboNote+. The application should run on both Win2K and WinXP. While running the application in XP, i got some border issues. It will be fixed, if we choose the default theme in WinXP. But my application should run on all themes of WinXP. How can i handle themes issues in VC++. Please help me to solve this problem.

    - =?Utf-8?Q?Funny_linker_error=E2=80=A6!?= I have a class that I'm using in my solution. This is an Internet solution, and this class is something I share with couple of projects. Now, to avoid redefining the class, I included the header in both projects. In order to relieve my self from recompiling, I let the server (project 1) compile this file, and I added the client (project 2) the object file. Now here is the funny thingâ?¦ I have a clean constructor to this class (no parameters) which is called without a problem from the object file. Any method declared works very well, BUT the ones that has wchar_t * as parameters. Any function that have any parameter like this will result in a linker error " chat client error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: int __thiscall CUserLoginInfo::SetLoginData(wchar_t *)" (?SetLoginData@CUserLoginInfo@@QAEHPA_W@Z) referenced in function "public: void __thiscall CchatclientDlg::OnBnClickedOk(void)" (?OnBnClickedOk@CchatclientDlg@@QAEXXZ) " no matter what the function is, as long it contains this parameter, I will get this error. If I won't call this function the project will obviously runâ?¦ needles to say that this can be resolved very quickly by copying the values by hand, but this is a flowed programming style, not to mention extremely annoying!... wchar_t is, of course, defined in both projects (/Zc:wchar_t). I had tried to fiddle with some functions parameters, all passed but thisâ?¦ What do you think? Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250364

    - Dll Entry Point Name Hi, MSDN documentation states: "The name DllMain is a placeholder for a user-defined function. You must specify the actual name you use when you build your DLL."

    - Enabling Memory Leak Detection Hi, I am trying to enable memory leak detection based on the url below. If I use _CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC instead of CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC in a test program, I can see the offending line numbers and source file get printed out. However in the program that I am trying to find memory leaks, I get the same debug output regardless of whether I #define _CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC or CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC. And I only get one line number <dllmodul.cpp(106)> output instead of every offending (leak causing) line number. Why is that? // based on http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vsdebug/html/vxconenablingmemoryleakdetection.asp #define _CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC #include <stdlib.h> #include <crtdbg.h> . . . _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks(); OUTPUT Detected memory leaks!

    - GetDIBits is returning 0 hi, i'm geting de bits of to bitmaps into a buffer in order to compare then. the first time i call GetDIBits, it works ok, and returns the number of scanlines an correct data in the buffer. the second time, it returns 0 and does nothing in the baffer. if i change the order of the calls, the second still fails. i know that then bitmaps must not be selected on any DC, and i'm carefully with that. ¿¿any reason why GetDIBits returns 0?? Thank you. by MJM. Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250338

    - reversing bit order Hi folks - I'm writing some code for a checksum algorithm and I need to reverse the order of bits in an unsigned char array, in 4-bit chunks (half byte, or nibble). Example.. the array contains BYTE data: 0001 0110, 0000 0010, 1000 0000 0x16, 0x02, 0x80 Each nibble gets reversed: 1000 0110, 0000 0100, 0001 0000 0x86, 0x04, 0x10 Each nibble will then be added and the results become a checksum nibble. I can do this brute force, one bit at a time, but I'm hoping someone out there will recognize a possible elegant solution. There will always be 5 bytes (40 bits, 10 nibbles) to deal with. Any ideas? Thanks. Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250334

I'm performing a custom draw of the items of a tree control and I need to be able to draw the expand and collapse toggle button ([+] & [-]) that appears to the left of items with children.

    - Initializing member variables Hi, I did this test using VC .NET 7.0: #include <iostream> using namespace std; class A { public: //A () { } // Providing a default constructor makes it work int i; int GetI() { return i; } }; int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { A a; //cout << a.GetI() << endl; //This call works cout << a.i << endl; //Throws Runtime error a.i++; //Throws Runtime Error return 0; } In the lines mentioned, it throws a runtime error saying that the variable is not 'defined'. The variable is not initialized, of course, but what makes it not throw the error if: 1) the default constructor is provided, which does not actually initialize 'i'? 2) a.GetI() is called, again without initializing 'i'? TIA, SD Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250327

    - Using WebBrowser Control, how to Navigate w/o displaying the HTML page. I built an MFC project of the SDI type, hosting a WebBrowser Control. Everything seems to behave properly. I am using the Navigate(LPCTSTR URL) to get web pages. Is it possible and if so how to perform all the functionality of the Navigate() w/o display the page? There is a method called SetVisible(false/true) but when trying to use it, it creates an exception. With and w/o regard to the above question, Is it preferred to have a host of the MDI (or top level MDI) type, as to separate between the host's GUI window and the window in which the WebBrowser Control displays a page (that is if I allow it to do that)? Thanks, David Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250301

    - std::_MAX Replacement I'm migrating from VS6.0 to VS 2003 .Net. One of the breaking changes is that _MAX has been redefined so that std::_MAX will no longer compile. I tried changing each usage to std::max, but that won't compile either. So I went using std::max ... float a = max(b, c); which is compiling. How have other people dealt with this issue?

Is this a common issue? Did I do anything wrong in my steps or is there anything I did not do? Thanks for the help. Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250284

Added a reference to the wsdl document of the web service to the project. 4. tried to compile it and got an error: syntax error : expecting a type specification near "HelloWorldResult" error points to this line: [id(4), helpstring("method HelloWorld")] HRESULT HelloWorld([out, retval] HelloWorldResult *); Here is the code that was generated by Soap Tool Kit when I added a reference: // TestSoapTool.idl : IDL source for TestSoapTool.dll // // This file will be processed by the MIDL tool to // produce the type library (TestSoapTool.tlb) and marshalling code. import "oaidl.idl"; import "ocidl.idl"; [ object, uuid(433144B5-225D-42D8-8E2C-875467ABE7FA), dual, helpstring("IService1SoapProxy Interface"), pointer_default(unique) ] interface IService1SoapProxy : IDispatch { [propget, id(1), helpstring("property URL")] HRESULT URL([out, retval] BSTR *pVal); [propput, id(1), helpstring("property URL")] HRESULT URL([in] BSTR newVal); [propget, id(2), helpstring("property ProxyServerAddress")] HRESULT ProxyServerAddress([out, retval] BSTR *pVal); [propput, id(2), helpstring("property ProxyServerAddress")] HRESULT ProxyServerAddress([in] BSTR newVal); [propget, id(3), helpstring("property ProxyServerPort")] HRESULT ProxyServerPort([out, retval] BSTR *pVal); [propput, id(3), helpstring("property ProxyServerPort")] HRESULT ProxyServerPort([in] BSTR newVal); [id(4), helpstring("method HelloWorld")] HRESULT HelloWorld([out, retval] HelloWorldResult *); }; [ uuid(A07EF164-8E81-41FF-9D91-BD74F3C1F67E), version(1.0), helpstring("TestSoapTool 1.0 Type Library") ] library TESTSOAPTOOLLib { importlib("stdole32.tlb"); importlib("stdole2.tlb"); [ uuid(C7AC7808-58F3-4109-B2D9-ACC22521C055), helpstring("Service1SoapProxy Class") ] coclass Service1SoapProxy { [default] interface IService1SoapProxy; }; }; Before I go any further I wanted to know if it is even doable: calling vb-based functions from c++ since all types are different. Is this a common issue? Did I do anything wrong in my steps or is there anything I did not do? Thanks for the help. Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250200

    - using enums in array references I tested the following lines of code, and they work, but I was wondering if usage of enums like this is frowned upon. I don't really ever see enums used like this, and I was wondering why. enum index {first, second, third}; int i[3]; i[first] = 1; i[second] = 2; i[third] = 3; Thanks, Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250198

    - Use IE as help window I would like to use IE (or registered browser) to display some HTML help in my application. In addition I would like to continue to use the same instance for subsequent help queries (provided it is still open). Also, I want to be able to make it an always on top window so that giving focus to the application does not obscure it. I've got the easy part opening IE using ShellExecute(). Can I do what I am suggesting? I'm willing to change the method of launching if necessary. Thanks, Drew Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250196

    - space or tab in #define I find there are some statements like "# define PI 3.14159" in our code. Please note that there is a space between "#" and "define". I have tried space and tab in VC project, and find they work well. But I wonder whether it is standard usage in standard C, especially in make of cygwin. Thank you!

    - VC 8 crash (fatal internal error) when using nested exceptions Greetings, While migrating some old code (5+ years) to VC 8, Beta 2 (for targeting AMD64), I encountered an internal compiler error when building release builds. This code builds fine in both VC 6 & 7.1 when targeting x86 (I think it even built fine in VC 4.2 if my memory squeeks correctly). The code in question has nested try/except blocks, for example: " __try { //OS Call } __except( EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER ) { __try { //OS_call(different parameters) } __except( EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER ) { //review parameters, cleanup, unwind } } " This crash was easily worked around by moving the nested exception block to its own function. Here are the juicy details from a cross build: " Finished searching libraries Finished pass 1 Generating code xxxx.cpp(1109) : fatal error C1001: An internal error has occurred in the compiler.

    - question about the processes created in VC Hi, I am new to the windows platform and working in VC++ on WIN-2000 platform. I have a process P1. P1 has to create another process P2 ( I'm using CreateProcess API for the same). Now if some one kills P2 or P2 exits gracefuly, is there any any for P1 to know that P2 has exited. Similarly if P1 exits then is there any mechanism so that P2 can know that P1 has exited. Pls solve my problem Thanks in advance Vidyut Gupta Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250156

    - Why map work like this? I'm using VC++ 6.0, I just started to learn container and iterator, As I found a problem about container:map like below: map<int, int> intmap; for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { intmap[i] = i+1; } intmap.erase(2); map<int, int>::iterator it; if ( (it = intmap.find(2)) != intmap.end()) { cout << intmap[2] ; } the result is: 0 I had thought the key: 2 should have been erased, why it is still in and just change the coresponding value to 0?

    - "Curiouser and curiouser.", said Alice. "WTF?!", said Joe. The following SDK program works fine on my Win2k PC. I start trying it out on a WinXP machine: Things are looking bad now: it will only run in debug build. In release build it just exits (no crash, just doesn't start properly). I track it down to the part marked with "THE REALLY IMPORTANT BIT IS HERE" (see psuedo code, below). (I couldn't find the point of failure, because my attempt at logging each point just caused everything to work again (hmmm...)). WITHOUT that code block, the program just exists prematurely. WITH that code block, the program runs fine (note that the block is AFTER the message pump). If I move the code block in front of the message pump, it still works. IF I remove the volatile keyword, the program stops working again. If I remove huge chunks of other code (not shown), it makes no difference. Is it a thread issue with directX being initialised in a separate thread from WinMain? If I don't create the thread, I get the same behaviour as described above. I'm using the multithreaded libs. I could leave in the volatile loop, but I don't like not knowing why. If I build with optimisations turned off, I get the same behaviour. In fact, just tested it with for(x= 0; x < 1; x++){}; removed (leaving only the volatile declaration - unreferrenced variable), and with optimisations turned off, it had the same effect (program worked). With optimisation on, it looks like it's been optimised away (program stops working). So, what the frig is going on? Any ideas? pseudo code: WinMain(){ CreateEvent to check for previous existance. Read and Write a couple of DWORDS to the registry Register a Window Class hwndApp= CreateWindow _beginthreadex (myThreadProc) check current user's locale. Add a tray icon // normal message loop stuff MSG msg; ZeroMemory(msg) while(msg != WM_QUIT){ PeekMessage() TranslageMessage() DispatchMessage() } // THE REALLY IMPORTANT BIT IS HERE. { volatile int x; for(x= 0; x < 1; x++){}; } } myThreadProc(){ set up directx. etc. } Tag: skinnable application Tag: 250108

    - Using MSHTML, how to get a parsed tree of an HTML source file? I am using VSC++2005. It is an MFC project, hosting MSHTML. The documents I read say that MSHTML can parse HTML documents but I could not find info about the format of the parsed tree and if it can be accessible to the hosting program. If there another HTML parser, especially if it can be incorporated into my program, that can produce an accessible parsed tree, that will be interesting too.

Hi,

I would like to know what is the best technique for creating skinnable
application ?
everything should be imagess if i understood well, and 1 file should
contain all information about these images like names, status (pressed,
hover, standard, up, and so on...).

But should i write in this file, the dimensions of each image ?

does anyone have some samples please ?
thanks a lot,

Maileen

Just a little precision...everything should REALLY be an image or could
i use button and repaint it...the same for combobox, and so on...
