hi..
I want to change the background color of a particular row in CListCtrl.

Neat Stuff to do in List Controls Using Custom Draw
The first code snippet almost does what you want. Simply change
<br />
pLVCD->clrText = crText;<br />
to
<br />
pLVCD->clrTextBk = your color here;<br />
 Pssst. You see that little light on your monitor? That's actually a government installed spy camera. Smile and wave to big brother!

I am trying to figure out how to use the findfirst or findfirstfile to find the first file
in a given directory.
I want to be able to find the first file that is either:
A bmp or gif or png or a jpg.
So in other words the first image file meeting any of the above four image types.

Yes, I found that but how do you search for a range of file extensions?
This only seems to either do *.* or a specific single file.
|
|
|
|
|
Well I`ll guess you`llhave to do a FindFirstfile followed by a
do - while statement where you check if the file has one of the extensions you are looking for...Something like below...
<code> TCHAR dir[] = { _T("C:\MyPath\Mypics\*.*") };
bool bFoundLegalPic=false;
WIN32_FIND_DATA findData;
HANDLE srchHandle = FindFirstFile(dir, &findData);
if(INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != srchHandle )
{
do{
//here check last 4 chars of filename (in the finddata variable)
//with the extensions you wish to retrieve
}while(!bFoundLegalPic && FindNextFile(srchHandle, &findData));
FindClose(srchHandle);</code>
Hope this helps you...

That's not the approach I ended up trying, but probably a better solution than mine.
Thanks.

I've never used this dll, but I've gotten this error when I didn't have the .lib file linked in my project for whatever header I was using

i use Selchanged event to trace user's selection in tree control. normally it is ok. But when user click the same item twice or more(not double click, there are some long delay between two click), windows will not call selchanged event(I think that windows think there is no change). how can i react the event like this, thank you

I've been battling around trying to implement WMI into my MFC application. I'm trying to get Windows XP informations such as product key, activation status, ect. I used COM init to interface with Win32_WindowsProductActivation class. I have problems with changing Windows XP Product Key. How can I run SetProductKey method with parameters??? I went through Microsoft docs but it's not clear to me at all. Any hits or sample code??? I've seen VB script but i have difficulty implementing it with C++.
Thank you all

Hi Aamir,
Thanks for your reply. I don't have problems extracting informations from
Win32_WindowsProductActivation class properties. I have problem using the class methods. In this function i'm trying to pass new product key and change existing one. Can i do it with this SetProductKey method???? or need to use Put method?? Your help is very appreciated. Also well done on that article.

From MSDN: "This method is valid only if the ActivationRequired property is equal to 1."
Have u checked it.
Plus.. I have run your code and it fails on GetMethod call. Have a look into it again.
Another thing... Why are u trying to call SpawnInstance.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for reply. You are reading data from class properties.I don't have problem with it at all. My problem is using the class methods. See Win32_WindowsProductActivation class SetProductKey method. How do I implement it??
Cheers

My apologies for the confusion. Most of the questions I see regarding WMI are of the "How do I get access to it?" variety.

I have an application that displays dialogs as pages within a property sheet. Most of the controls work fine, but I am having trouble getting an edit box with horizontal scroll to work. I have multiline set to true and horizontal scroll set to true in the properties box for the edit box control. I also have vertical scroll set to true - that works. When the dialog is activated, the horizontal bar does not show up. The vertical bar shows up and works.
I have tried to add the horizontal scroll dynamically without success. If I place the code in OnInitDialog for the dialog that has the edit control on it, the program errors out in winocc.cpp in CWnd::ModifyStyle on
<br />
ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd) || (m_pCtrlSite !=NULL)):<br />
The same happens if I place this call in the OnInitDialog for the main Dialog, after the property page has been added to the property sheet.
If I put the call to ModifyStyle in a handler for OnShowWindow, the program does not abort, but the horizontal bar does not show up. Any ideas?
Code that sets up the page in the property sheet:
<br />
dlgPropSheet.AddPage((CPropertyPage*) &msgDlg);<br />
dlgPropSheet.Create(this, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE, 0);<br />
dlgPropSheet.ModifyStyleEx(0, WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT);<br />
dlgPropSheet.ModifyStyle(0, WS_TABSTOP);<br />
Code I tried both in OnInitDialog for msgDlg and right after the above code in OnInitDialog for the main dialog:
<br />
pMsgDlg->m_rawMsg.ModifyStyle(0, WS_HSCROLL);<br />

Hi everyone,
I am busy creating a little setup project and run into a problem when compiling the debug version into a release version. (LNK4098 linker warning)
My question is what is the difference between Single-threaded and Multithreaded CRT options in the compiler and when do I choose which one ?
(My project do spawn a second thread apart from the main running thread.)
Regards
Ramsus

If you're using the CRT from multiple threads, use the multithreaded version. If not, the singlethreaded version is smaller and slightly quicker.

It depends...
Ryan gave a good answer, in ideal [single threaded] circumstances you should choose to use the single threaded crt libraries.
rules of thumb
* If there is any chance that in the future any part of the project may be multithreaded I recommend setting the options for the project to use the multi-threaded libraries. From past experience, it's easier to tell everyone else on the team what the setting should be rather than trying to let them figure it out (or change it) on their own.
* If any of your dependancies are distributed as binaries linked against a particular crt, you MUST link against the same type.
* If you don't want to distribute any .dll's with you product, statically link to the crt.
