Hi all,

i have creted my project with visual studio 6.0
and after that for certain needs i started using visual studio 7(Version 7.1.3088)

till now it was working very smoothly. but today i tried to add a propertysheet in my project and for that i created a dialog template and then by right cliking on that dialog box i clicked on add class.
and in the add class dialog box i gave CPropertyPage as base class as it is required for the property sheet.
and by this way i created the class but now when i compile the project
it gives lot's of errors

Why these errors are coming?
i am doing nothing than just creating a class and giving it base class as
CPropertyPage and then it gives me 1625 errors

some of the errors are as follows
e:\TemporyWorking\Triton\hdr\DocTree.h(20) : error C2504: 'CSizingControlBarG' : base class undefined
e:\TemporyWorking\Triton\hdr\DocTree.h(46) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'm_imageList'
e:\TemporyWorking\Triton\hdr\DocTree.h(46) : error C2501: 'CDocTree::CImageList' : missing storage-class or type specifiers

Thanks and Regards
Harshal

The specified base class, CSizingControlBarG, was declared but never defined. This error can be caused by a missing include file or an external base class that was not declared with the extern specifier.

Hello,
how can i show a line separator between dialog objects, like in visual basic?
I like to put some radio boxes on the left side of my dialog, vertical, and i want to make a litle
difference between, not to use "GroupBox", just a simple line like menu separator:

° radio1
° radio2
° radio3

----------------- // <-- my line separator

° radio4
° radio5
° radio_n

is this posible?

thanks in advance

override the OnPaint() function and add this code :

CRect l_rctClient;<br />
GetClientRect(&l_rctClient);<br />
<br />
CDC * l_pDC = GetDC();<br />
<br />
CPen l_GrayPen(PS_SOLID, 1, RGB(100, 100, 100));<br />
CPen l_WhitePen(PS_SOLID, 1, RGB(255, 255, 255));<br />
<br />
int l_nYLine = l_rctClient.top + l_rctClient.Height()/2; // example for your line y coordinate<br />
//could also be<br />
//GetDlgItem(IDC_MYITEM)->GetClientRect(l_rctItem);<br />
//int l_nYLine = l_rctItem.bottom+10;<br />
<br />
CPen * l_pOldPen = l_pDC->SelectObject(&l_GrayPen);<br />
l_pDC->MoveTo(l_rctClient.left+2, l_nYLine);<br />
l_pDC->LineTo(l_rctClient.right-2, l_nYLine);<br />
<br />
l_pDC->SelectObject(&l_WhitePen);<br />
l_pDC->MoveTo(l_rctClient.left+2, l_nYLine+1);<br />
l_pDC->LineTo(l_rctClient.right-2, l_nYLine+1);<br />
<br />
l_pDC->SelectObject(l_pOldPen);<br />
<br />
ReleaseDC(l_pDC);

Hello,
thaks for answer, yes tis is what i mean, only i recive an error in line:

//GetDlgItem(IDC_MYITEM)->GetClientRect(l_rctItem); // <-- original code 
CRect l_rctItem;
GetDlgItem(IDC_RADIO)->GetClientRect(l_rctItem); // errorline, my radio box, i like that the line is under this radio box

i think that the IDC_RADIO dont exists at this time,
Error is "Access violation 0x00000005". And the compiler show this:

<code>
_AFXWIN_INLINE void CWnd::GetWindowRect(LPRECT lpRect) const
	{ ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd)); ::GetWindowRect(m_hWnd, lpRect); }
</code>

How to solve this
The rest od your sample works fine, the new line goes through the middle of my dialog Smile | :)

regards

So you can do that :

CWnd * l_pRadioWnd = GetDlgItem(IDC_RADIO);<br />
if( !l_pRadioWnd )<br />
    return;<br />
<br />
CRect l_rctItem;<br />
l_pRadioWnd ->GetClientRect(l_rctItem);<br />
<br />
int l_nYLine = l_rctItem.bottom+10;<br />
<br />
CDC * l_pDC = GetDC();<br />
<br />
CPen l_GrayPen(PS_SOLID, 1, RGB(100, 100, 100));<br />
CPen l_WhitePen(PS_SOLID, 1, RGB(255, 255, 255));<br />
<br />
CPen * l_pOldPen = l_pDC->SelectObject(&l_GrayPen);<br />
l_pDC->MoveTo(l_rctClient.left+2, l_nYLine);<br />
l_pDC->LineTo(l_rctClient.right-2, l_nYLine);<br />
<br />
l_pDC->SelectObject(&l_WhitePen);<br />
l_pDC->MoveTo(l_rctClient.left+2, l_nYLine+1);<br />
l_pDC->LineTo(l_rctClient.right-2, l_nYLine+1);<br />
<br />
l_pDC->SelectObject(l_pOldPen);<br />
<br />
ReleaseDC(l_pDC);

The warning has probably nothing to do with the fact that your application failed to start. And, what do you mean by failed to start ? It crashes, nothing appear, it hangs, ... ?
Provide also details about what you did. And also check with your debugger to see what's happening.

Hello ,

Choose the "PreTranslateMessage" function of your dialog class from ClassWizard and include the following code in it...

BOOL YourDlgClass::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{

if (pMsg->message == WM_SYSKEYDOWN) // ALT key combinations
{
switch (pMsg->wParam)
{ // ... case statements for each key being trapped
case 'T' : //for key combination ALT + T

//write your code here

break;

default : // unhandled keystroke
return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);

}

return TRUE; // msg is processed

Hi all,

I have a MySQL server running on a linux that is working properly, and i have errors trying to connect to the server on a windows NT client using ODBC. The error i am getting is Can't connect to MySQL 10060. The driver i am using is ODBC 3.51,(i wish to create a vb app using the driver to access the database) I am quite sure that the parameters that i specified for the host name etc are correct. I even downloaded the MySQL control centre to test the connection to the MySQL linux server, but it still doesnt work. I tried using the same ODBC driver and the same windows client to connect to another dummy MySQL server running on a remote windows PC and it works. Also I have a website coded in PHP that can access the MySQL database on any windows pc, so it couldn't possibly be that the MySQL server blocks out my clients IP address right?
Please help Thanks in advance Laugh | :laugh:

Sounds like IPTables or some other firewall (is there even another firewall for *Nix) is blocking access to the *Nix server. Check the firewall settings...
