Is CImage::Save helpfuls?

Does anybody know how to quickly invert a region using the CombineRegion() or similar api? I have so many regions to add, subtract and manipulate I cannot determine If any of my attempts are working.

HI All,
I have a string. In this string I want to validate that if and only if the previous character is something then the next character should also follow a definite pattern.
For ex:
A_____B______C_____D_____E
3_____1______2_____0_____3
_____________4_____0_____1
___________________1_____2
______2______1_____1_____0
______4______2_____3_____2
so as explained in the table above the valid entries should be 31203,31412,32110,34232.
I have tried solving the issue with a lots of if's, else if's etc. but I somewhere feel that this may not be the right way to validate the input. Can somebody put some light on this issue or point me to some article link that may help me to the resolution of the problem.....
Thanks in advance

something like this ?? 
(3 [1 [(2 0 3) | (4 [(0 1) | (1 2)])] | (2 1 1 0) | (4 2 3 2)])

I'm missing one value. I guess the correct entries should be 31203,31401,31412,32110,34232. Am I right?
Further:
1.
The underscore characters, are they present in the string?
2.

Does this line have any significance, or did you just put it there for clarification?

I just gave a few examples about how the values could be entered by the user. Yes what you is correct.

NO the underscore signs are not present in the string. I just entered them to show the alignment to the codeproject member's.

OK, one more question:
The "shorter" lines, are they left justified, or are they padded with blanks?
<code>
Like this (padded with blanks):
"31203"
" 401"
" 12"
" 2110"
" 4232"
Or like this (left justified):
"31203"
"401"
"12"
"2110"
"4232"
</code>
I'm working on a solution.

Hello again. I didn't receive an answer to my last question, but I made a solution that covers both cases.
You will have to adjust the code for Unicode if you want it.
And possibly adjust the code to ATL/STL if you want it.
Here goes:
The func:
<code>
void get(CString csIn, CString &csOut)
{
static CString csLast = "";
int lastLen = csLast.GetLength();
// Ignore and remove leading blanks in csIn.
while(csIn.GetAt(0) == ' ') csIn.Delete(0);
int inLen = csIn.GetLength();
if(inLen >= lastLen) {
// New, bigger value, save it.
csLast = csIn;
lastLen = csLast.GetLength();
}
int copyChars = lastLen - inLen;
if(copyChars > 0) {
csOut = csLast.Left(copyChars);
}
else csOut = "";
csOut += csIn;
csLast = csOut; // Save the last value for next time.
}
</code>
The main:
<code>
CString csRet;
get("31203", csRet); // csRet becomes "31203"
get(" 401", csRet); // csRet becomes "31401"
get(" 12", csRet); // csRet becomes "31412"
get(" 2110", csRet); // csRet becomes "32110"
get(" 4232", csRet); // csRet becomes "34232"
</code>

Thanks for your time and effort both in helping me to find out the solution. I will give it a try and let you know if there is still some problem that needs to be dealt with.
Thanks once again.

Your'e welcome, I'm glad if I can be of assistance to you.
And I can't resist a challenge...
Probably, there are things that must be fixed, this is a quick hack.
But I think the main idea works.
Good luck.

What's wrong with CString::TrimLeft()?

There is nothing wrong with TrimLeft (i hope).
I agree, it's a better choice. But I didn't have the time to tidy up the code. I'm at work, and wanted to help out...

Hi all,
I am currently involved in a migration project from one reporting tool to another. The tool I am migrating reports from displays a large number of items in a window similar to a list box with no option to cut and paste so I currently have to copy them by hand and type them back into the new reporting tool.
The reporting tool API does not have an object that will allow me to access the information so I was wondering if I could get Windows to output the items to a text file as it was displaying them on the screen.
I downloaded the WindowDump utility from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/08/EscapefromDLLHell/
in the hope that it would extract the information for me but unfortunately it indicated that the window I was looking at was not the ListBox class but a List class, which I'm assuming is a custom class with no associated Windows functions that will allow me to retrieve information from it.
I then attempted to use windows subclassing to intercept the messages from the List class but discovered that SetWindowLong could not be used on a window outside the application using it.
Can anyone tell me if what I want to do is possible and give me some direction on how to pursue my investigation from here?
Many thanks,
Lep

Does it respond to listbox messages?

Nope, the WindowDump utility extracts information from the ListBox class. It didn't retrieve the information from this Window, but it provided the class (List), handle, process, styles etc.

Leprechaun78 wrote: ...the ListBox class.
Where is this class defined? How would WindowDump even know that an application was usng such a class, let alone have access to it?
Leprechaun78 wrote: ...the class (List), handle, process, styles etc.
I've not heard of a class having a handle and a style. These sound like window properties.

My terminology is probably incorrect, I don't have a lot of experience of programming in Windows (or anything else!), apologies for that. I thought a window was an instance of a class?
WindowDump uses GetClassName to extract the class name. This is an example of the output:
Class: List
Title:
ID: 0
hWnd: 0x00010d9a
Styles: WS_CHILD
Control Styles:
Dimension: (208,329) 95 x 125
State: Visible Enabled
If the class was a list box WindowDump would retrieve the contents using
SendMessage(hWnd, LB_GETTEXT, iPos, (LPARAM)szLine)
I'm wondering if there is a similar way to access the contents of a custom class?

It sounds as though you are confusing a Windows class (e.g., BUTTON, EDIT, LISTBOX, STATIC, COMBOBOX) with a C++ class.
Leprechaun78 wrote: I'm wondering if there is a similar way to access the contents of a custom class?
Yes, but the target control would need to respond to the message for you to get anything from it.

Ok, I'll investigate ways of checking the properties of a C++ class. My thinking is that the application is passing the information to the operating system for it to display, so I want the operating system to output that information somewhere other than the screen (i.e. a text file). Do you think this is possible?

Most things are, but that does not necessarily mean they are easy. While intercepting video output is likely doable, it would certainly not be trivial.

I saw the puzzling class defination in the reference--
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/efk30beh(VS.80).aspx[^]
My question comes from the below line
***********************
CPrimeTest() : m_pCalcNext( new CEvent( FALSE, FALSE ) ) , m_pCalcFinished( new CEvent( FALSE, FALSE ) ) , m_pTerminateThread( new CEvent( FALSE, FALSE ) ) , m_iCurrentPrime( 0 ). If so, why not put them in the body of the class defination.
*******************************
-- How to explain it.
-- Can we treat 'm_pCalcNext', 'm_pCalcFinished' 'm_pTerminateThread' and 'm_iCurrentPrime' as four member variables of public type of the class
<br />
<br />
CPrimeTest { <br />

<br />
{ <br />

Why public ? They are private pointers which are instancied in the constructor (at the line you don't understand). Each of this pointers is a pointer to a CEvent class, and a CEvent class require two parameters for its constructor (I didn't look in detail, but it seems by seing the line you posted).
In fact this part of the line: m_pCalcNext( new CEvent( FALSE, FALSE ) ) is more or less equal to m_pCalcNext = new CEvent(FALSE,FALSE); in the body of the constructor.
So what do you don't understand exactly ?
