In the worker thread (specifically CCallback::OnProgress()), you'll need to update the UI (progress bars, static text controls) with SendDlgItemMessage() instead of calling the ProgressUpdate() function in the dialog class.
Alternatively, you can package up the info sent to ProgressUpdate() into a struct, and send a custom window message to the dialog. The dialog's handler would read the data from the struct and update the UI.

Besides, since actually I am doing my project for those question, can I make wholly use of the class you'd written "BindStatusCallBack.h"? Since I know it concerns with the copyright, so that I have to ask for your permission beforehand.
Thx!

Does anyone know where to find a good
tutorial for DirectX 8 programming?
Thanks in advance,

Download the documentation with DX8. It is commonly accepted that there are no great books on DX, and that the best source of info is the online documentation. I personally used the Microsoft DX and D3D books as a starting point, but remember, they relate to DX5.

How do I disable Alt-F4 so that my app doesn't exit on this shortcut?
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't want to close at all handle the WM_CLOSE message and do nothing.
If it is just ALT+F4, try overriding PretranslateMessage() (Assuming you're using MFC)

How can deal with PreTranslateMessage to
disable Alt+F4?
|
|
|
|
|
Take a small, blunt knife (for example a butter knife) and lift the key 'caps' for 'Alt' and 'F4' out of the keyboard. Then pour quick setting resin in the spaces and leave for five minutes.
Now you have disabled Alt+f4  . You may like to add this method to your readme file so any end users know as well.

You can disable closing of the window by disabling the close item in the system menu. (This also disables the close gadget and Alt-F4).
if ((WS_CAPTION|WS_SYSMENU) & GetStyle())
{
CMenu *pSysMenu = GetSystemMenu(FALSE);
if (NULL != pSysMenu)
{
pSysMenu->EnableMenuItem(SC_CLOSE, MF_BYCOMMAND | MF_GRAYED);
}
}

I wish to get the coordinates for the upper left corner of a control derived from a control class, for example CButton. The coordinates should be relative to the uppper left corner of the parents client area.
I've seen that one possible way is to use GetWindowRect, but then I must know the size of the non-client area. How can I get that, or is there a better way to do this?
|
|
|
|

You might look at the CWnd::ScreenToClient() method:
void CNewFormView::OnButton2()
{
RECT buttonRect;
CButton* cb = (CButton*)GetDlgItem(IDC_BUTTON1);
cb->GetWindowRect(&buttonRect);
ScreenToClient(&buttonRect);
}

That was a smart one. I had already solved it, but this cuts my code with 4 rows.

I installed Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 but when I click HELP then SEARCH I get following message "MSDN collection not found. Please re-install MSDN". What can I do?
|
|
|
|
|
Try to go into Tools - Options, and select the tab "Help System", in there you can select what MSDN Collection you want to use...
If that does not work, reinstall MSDN...

Imagine we have a CView object and we want to save the screen of the window it handles to a bitmap file or print it out. Any suggestions?
|
|
|
|

CWindowDC dc(m_hWnd) will give you a DC that contains your current window. Now CBitmap* pScreen = dc.GetCurrentBitmap(); will give you a CBitmap to play with to your hearts content. There is no point building a DIB, the image is clearly already devive dependant.

When I go to File/Print, a print dialog box pops up. At the bottom, the user can change the paper size options. How can I reduce the paper size options to just letter (8 1/2 x 11) and legal (8 1/2 x 14) size paper? How can I eliminate all the other paper size options?
Please, any response any one can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
danYELL

Doing this will be difficult, since you'd have to either disable print setup or chase all the proprietary printer setup dialogs.
Here's an option that traps the wonky paper size before printing starts, and localizes things in OnPreparePrinting:
BOOL CSDITestView::OnPreparePrinting(CPrintInfo* pInfo)
{
BOOL retval;
while(1) {
retval = DoPreparePrinting(pInfo);
if(retval) {
DEVMODE *dm = pInfo->m_pPD->GetDevMode();
if(dm->dmPaperSize != DMPAPER_LETTER && dm->dmPaperSize != DMPAPER_LEGAL) {
if(IDCANCEL == MessageBox("Paper size is yada yada...", "Prepare printing...", MB_OKCANCEL)) {
retval = FALSE;
break;
}
else {
continue;
}
}
else {
break;
}
}
else {
break;
}
}
return retval;
}
You don't necessarily have to send the user back to the print setup, as this does. Not very friendly, really.
Check the docs for DEVMODE for lots of other good things you can check.
BTW this is not to say you can't alter the print dialog - if what you want to do is add something, rather than disable something, check out Al Stevens article in the December Dr. Dobbs for one approach.

question of beginner
i tried a lot to return full path and the name of the file
to put that in a CString ms
this is the code
{
OPENFILENAME selfile = { 0 };
selfile.lStructSize = sizeof selfile;
selfile.hwndOwner = m_hWnd;
selfile.lpstrFilter = "All Files (*.bin)\0*.bin\0";
selfile.lpfnHook = CResizeTestDlg::HookProc;
selfile.Flags = OFN_ENABLEHOOK | OFN_EXPLORER;
selfile.lpstrTitle="Select File ";
GetOpenFileName( &selfile );
CString ms;
//ms.GetBuffer(of.lpstrFile);
AfxMessageBox(ms);
}
|
|
|
|
|
Before the GetOpenFileName() call, do:
CString strPath;
selfile.lpstrFile = strPath.GetBuffer( MAX_PATH );
selfile.nMaxFile = MAX_PATH;
Don't forget to call strPath.ReleaseBuffer() before using any CString methods on strPath.

When I open a new Dialog my using the "m_object.Modal". If I ask the user to enter something in a edit box, and I saved what he typed by using a varible "CString word." After the user closed the Dialog box and now is in the main Dialog, and I want to know is it possible to get what is stored in the word variable?
|
|
|
|
|
It's in m_object.word. You can access all the variables this way, but remember you can't get data from variables attached to edit boxes & the like, because they don't exist anymore.

Sure. Either make the members public or create access functions.
CMyDialog dlg;
CString strWord;
if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
{
strWord = dlg.word;
}
