You can make use of GetNextWindow() and then check the pointer using
if (pWnd->IsKinfOf(RUNTIME_CLASS(CGridCtrl))
{
CGridCtrl* pGrid = (CGridCtrl*)pWnd ;
}

I'm using OpenGL to help me design 3D graphics software. I'm just practising now. I used the tutorial on nehe.gamedev.net to create my openGL window. How can I add stuff like dialog boxes and push buttons and menus on the screen which will execute different commands to the software. I have a book on visual C++, but when I'm using OpenGL as my API, that book seems useless to help me with the non graphics part. It all seems so different. Please tell me if I have to do everything using only OpenGL syntax now that I've made the window with OpenGL?? Cause then I'm guessing I'd need the OpenGL book.

First there are several samples here:
http://www.codeproject.com/opengl/
The most common practice is to have a display window showing the OpenGL as a child to the application (or frame/view/whatever.) Buttons etc are not in that window.

You can find some samples and tutorials in the MSDN...

I believe you'll find none of the NeHe tutorials use MFC. We are building an OpenGL app and do not use MFC, and I create dialogs and so on in the standard, non-MFC way. You can find examples here that build a framework for GL using MFC, or you'll need to learn Win32, and maybe buy Petzhold.

None of the tutorials use MFC, just the plain win32 API. However, I'm pretty sure there is an MFC framework example on the site included. If you understand OpenGL, then creating MFC OpenGL apps shouldn't be much of a problem. Be prepared though, 99% of the OpenGL examples you'll find around are going to be win32. Learning win32 is a great bonus though, and there's no better book than Petzold.

Check out the OpenGL section of this and at Code Guru. There are several very good examples that use MFC and support printing and print preview. They worked for me.

Is there anything that can help printing on A4 pages?
What I would like to do print on for an
application written in VC++. Data are represented in table and charts
(the charts are just image). If the table is too long for an A4, it's
required to break the pages. I am Looking Excel Type of page break
Mechanism.
So I need to deal with the format and pagination either in VC++
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Nag

You need to Know the width and the heigth of the page.
You Know the properties of the page that the user selected, for example Letter or A4, the size is standard.
Okay, when you are printing, through a printer or the preview, you need to calculate the space that you need for show the next Column, if the rigth point of the next column is greather of the page less a margin, you need to do a page Break.... (The same for the height). Is not easy but works...

Hi, I have troubles to set an icon on the title bar of my modeless dialog box. I tried SetClassLong () after I'd created the dialog but before it became visible. It's working well except all message boxes I create subsequently have the same icon on the title bar. They are obviously created from the same system dialog box class. Not mentioning possible further creation of other dialogs. How would I go about this problem? Anybody knows?
|

Try this:
In the constructor of your dialog class, change: m_hIcon = AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDR_YOURICON)
And this I think will change the icon of your dialog title bar

But I'm not using MFC 
|
|
|
|

I set an icon for a dialog as follows :
m_hIcon = (HICON)LoadImage(AfxGetApp()->m_hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_SELECTSTRUCTURE), IMAGE_ICON, 16, 16, LR_DEFAULTCOLOR) ;
SetIcon(m_hIcon, FALSE);
This is done in the InitDialog()

I cannot find pure API function similar to CWnd::SetIcon ()
|
|
|
|
|
The MFC function translates to this:
_AFXWIN_INLINE HICON CWnd::SetIcon(HICON hIcon, BOOL bBigIcon)
{ ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd)); return (HICON)::SendMessage(m_hWnd, WM_SETICON, bBigIcon, (LPARAM)hIcon); }
So you need to use SendMessage to do the equivalent.

What really is Managed C++, opposed to normal C++ ????
Thanks !

I believe it's C++ compiled to the .NET CLR. This topic is getting a lot of discussion in the lounge right now.

Managed C++ allows the developer to reap the benefits of other .NET languages such as C#, VB.NET. These benefits include:
Automatic garbage collection.
Intergration with the .NET Framework
From the VS.NET MSDN:
A primary focus of Visual C++.NET is to provide a powerful and simple way to design applications that target the .NET Framework common language runtime (CLR). The CLR offers a run-time environment that manages the execution of code. When you develop code using Visual C++.NET, you can compile your application or component with managed code, which is code that the CLR supports with services that make component programming easier. Managed Extensions for C++ allow you to easily create new .NET Framework components with C++ code, easily migrate existing native C++ code to use the .NET Framework, and access unchanged C++ components from the .NET components.
