PurgeComm
It has been a while since I worked with 422, but if you are concerned about receiving the output in the input, I would still code for ignoring any message you sent out. WIN32 just doesn't give you enough control to know when a message has been fully sent out of the comm port. You only know when output buffer is empty. There still could be characters waiting on the FIFO.
But, if you are just looking to kill any characters in the input buffer, PurgeComm works great.

hi, i would like to do something like that:
the website targeted use PHP to login with a username and a password.
and then, some menu is shown, (all using .php or .php3 extension for viewing pages.)
the fact is, if i do not log with my user/password within internet explorer, i can't even retrieve files i want using internet explorer.
but, even after logging in, and when i am able to download any file ending with .php3?someparam=somevalue&another=anothervalue etc...
when i use a offlinebrowser application to save all pages i want, the external application finally download a page which says i'm not logged on. although i can still download that page opening an internet explorer windows... (and setting the offline browser 'spider' to identify itself as IE doesn't solve the problem.)
so i have figured out that i need something, which will log in using a specified username/password, and then, will download all files linked from a single url. (and that need to work with either .php or .php3?x=1&pass=2 files...)
how can i do that?

Hi.
I would like to know how to determine when the user presses, say, 'z' *while* holding down one of the virtual keys, say Ctrl.
For example
// Ctrl + Z
I can use either OnKeyDown(...) and/or OnChar(...) to determine *either* Ctrl or z, but not both.
I am trying to implement an "undo" feature.
Thanks,
Kuphryn

Thanks.
// if(GetKeyboardState(VK_CONTROL) & 0x8000)
Are you ORing it with the integer 8? Why?
I know that works similarly to check if a key is down while clicking a mouse button. I could not get it to work with a character (OnChar).

& is the bitwise AND operator. GetKeyboardState() returns a short (16-bit integer). Check the docs and you'll see that the high bit is 1 if the key is pressed. The high bit of a 16-bit int can be expressed at 0x8000 which is hexadecimal notation.

Okay. Thanks.
Members at other forums mentioned this functions:
GetKeyState(...);
GetAsyncKeyStat(...);
GetKeyboardState(...); // Your recommendation
What are the differences?

Sorry, I mistyped. GetKeyState() is the API I'd use. There's probably no difference that you could see between the three APIs. GetKeyState() returns the state of one key, which is what you want, so that's the best one to use from a code readability standpoint. GetAsyncKeyState() will work as well, it just works differently internally.

I want one of my resource bitmaps to appear as the background of my dialog window upon runtime. Can someone please let me know how to go about doing this?
Thanks!

Handle the WM_ERASEBKGND message. The WPARAM will contain an HDC, you should use this value to create a memDC that you can select your bitmap into, then blt the bitmap into the HDC from WPARAM.
Here is an example assuming that you have the bitmap preloaded in hBitmap, and the dimensions of your bitmap have been cached in a BITMAP structure called bm.
HDC hdc = (HDC)wParam;
HDC hdcMem = ::CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);
::SelectObject(hBitmap);
::BitBlt(hdc, 0,0, bm.bmWidht, bm.bmHeight, hdcMem, 0,0,SRCCOPY);
::DeleteDC(hdcMem);
::SetWindowLong(hWnd, DWL_MESGRESULT, TRUE);
return TRUE;
If you have any more questions feel free to ask.

void CInterceptDlg::OnPaint()
{
PAINTSTRUCT ps;
HDC hdc
hdc = ::BeginPaint(hWnd, &ps);
...
}
If you are using MFC or WTL, then replace hWnd with m_hWnd in order to get access to the HWND member variable for your window.

One way is to use a named mutex.
HANDLE hMultiMutex = CreateMutex (NULL, FALSE, "DSSIOmniServerMutex");
if (hMultiMutex == NULL) { }
DWORD dwWaitResult = WaitForSingleObject (hMultiMutex, 0L);
bool fDuplicate = dwWaitResult == WAIT_TIMEOUT;
It isn't 100% fool proof, but it should work for GUIs.

hello. i am currently writing a program tictactoe for windows. i got mostly everything working. i got the program to draw the board and draw the X's and O's. the game start by beginning with the player then wait for the computer to move. i got the part where the player clicks on the board and an X is drawn in the grid. i only have to make the computer move but Everything seems to work OK, until last nite when I created a function CheckForMoves which returns an integer and also returns the row and column which is best move. inside the function CheckForMoves, i created a Board then i assigned it to a pointer to Board like this:
CBoard board = *pBoard;
pBoard is the Board i am using to draw my X's and O's for the game. i am copying it to a new board so i can try out all the possible moves in a new board without touching the board i am using in the game. because my board class was implemented dynamically, i wrote my own assignment operator and my own copy constructor. in my assignment operator function, i delete what ever the pointer is point to, then call new then point it to whatever is in the right of the operator. Copy constructor, because it is empty, i just point the pointers to what ever is on the right side. i went along and debugged it using the VC++ debugger then when i was walking through the code i saw that it was calling the Copy constructor. then as i walk over the Copy Constructor everything seems fine. by using asserts, if found out that all the pointers are being copied right. the cells where i store the X's and O's are copied right too. i tried using TRACE statements but i cant find the bug causing the BOARD TO BE EMPTY. i tried using MessageBox before and after calling the copy constructor. as i moved the MessageBox i saw my move X on the Board. but as soon as i clicked the MessageBox that Outputs "After" called after the copy constructor was called. the X in the board disappears. MY CONCLUSION IS THE BOARD I AM USING IN THE GAME IS BEING CHANGED SOMEHOW IN THE COPY CONSTRUCTOR. the copy constructors parameters is like this:
CBoard& CBoard::CBoard(const CBoard& Copy)
I Hope this helps explain my problem. sorry if its very long, i just want to explain it with much detail so i can tell you whats going on. Can anyone tell me whats wrong wid my program and how i can fix it? i would appreciate any method on how to find the bug. Thank you very very much.

I am not sure if this is causing you problems, but this is not what a copy constructor looks like a copy constructor has no return value.
CBoard::CBoard(const CBoard& Copy)
{
...
}
Maybe the compiler is generating the copy constructor for you and that is where your problem is.

Oh, i am very sorry... i made a mistake in typing my copy constructor... my copy constructor does look like the one u have. here it is and this is whats inside.
CBoard::CBoard(const CBoard& Copy)
{
// Create new objects
mpPen = new CPen;
mpFont = new CFont;
// Set the values to the new values
mpPen = Copy.mpPen;
mpFont = Copy.mpFont;
// Set the values to default for now
mpDefaultPen = NULL;
mpDefaultFont = NULL;
// Sets the rectangle to a certain point, width and height
for (int r = 0; r < MAXROW; r++)
for (int c = 0; c < MAXCOL; c++)
{
mCell[r][c] = Copy.mCell[r][c];
mpGrid[r][c] = new CRect(mLeftTopPt,CSize(mCellWidth,mCellHt));
mpGrid[r][c] = Copy.mpGrid[r][c];
}
}
thank you very much.

Hello John,
I am not sure what your real problem is and if what I am telling will give you an answer to your solution.
But from your code I draw the conclusion that mpPen are created on the heap.
When you do:
John Cruz wrote:
// Create new objects
mpPen = new CPen;
mpFont = new CFont;
you create two pointers on the heap. Then on
John Cruz wrote:
// Set the values to the new values
mpPen = Copy.mpPen;
mpFont = Copy.mpFont;
you equal the pointers not their values. Futhermore you allocate memory (new CPen) and you do not use it because you assign the pointer to the memory referenced my the source CBoard object (myPen = Copy.mpPen).
When the source copy goes out of scope the destination Pen and destination Font will point to rubbish.
Try *mpPen = *Copy.mpPen; But since these are GDI object you must take into account the handles (HPEN, HFONT), I am not sure, but I think you just cannot copy these objects as the predefined types.
I hope this helps,
Best regards,
Alexandru Savescu

I have tried it but the compiler gave me an error saying operator= not available. Does CPen and CFont have an Assignment operator... here is what i did..
// Create new objects
mpPen = new CPen;
mpFont = new CFont;
// Set the values to the new values
*mpPen = *Copy.mpPen;
*mpFont = *Copy.mpFont;
Thank you very much,
John

Why are you storing pen/font objects as part of the class anyway - surely they should be variables local to your drawing function?
You could always have CreatePen() and CreateFont() member functions, but better not to use pointers for pen/font objects at all - there's no need, as long as you properly deselect them from the device contexts.

I think now i see that i have a bad program design. my whole tictactoe design is wrong because i only made 3 objects. Board, Player, and Computer. Board handles all the drawing on the board, Player handles all the player moves and stuff. Computer is derived from the Player but it has some additional functions like the Alpha-beta pruning function. IS THERE ANYWAY I CAN FIX MY PROBLEM WITHOUT TRASHING ALL MY CODE. i am sorry, i am still new at this stuff...
Thank you very much,
John

Heh, please don't take this as if I am being flippant.
Even after nearly 20 years of programming, I still find that many of my initial designs are junk and have to be thrown away. Sometimes in the long run you save more time by starting again with good solid design than trying to patch together a bad design. Then again, if you actually have to maintain the code, it is always best to work from a good solid design.
