Or I can just do the following:
HWND hConsoleHandle = FindWindow(NULL, (LPCTSTR)"Window Name");
ShowWindow(hConsoleHandle, SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED);

Yuo've never allocated the memory that contains the WINDOWPLACEMENT variable, Plus, using sizeof on a pointer returns the size of the pointer, not the structure. Change this to
WINDOWPLACEMENT wndpl;
wndpl.length = sizeof(wndpl);
wndpl.showCmd = SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED;
GetWindowPlacement(hConsoleHandle,&wndpl);

I thought this was going to be an easy one since the MSDN documentation seems to indicate that there is a CWinApp::HtmlHelp() member function. I have a feeling the MSDN I am using is meant for use with a newer version of Visual Studio 6. My CWinApp header does not have such a member function.
Is there any other way to use Html Help in a VC6 project? I don't need to build the chm's - I just want to be able to call them (replace CWinApp::WinHelp()).
Thanks,
Dave

I'm going to reply to my own question. It drives me nuts when people just say: never mind, I figured it out and leave it at that. Here's what I ended up doing:
In my CXXXApp (CWinApp derived class), I override WinHelp() and replace WinHelp() with the following:
<br />
CString szFile(m_pszHelpFilePath);<br />
char drive[_MAX_DRIVE];<br />
char dir[_MAX_DIR];<br />
char fname[_MAX_FNAME];<br />
char ext[_MAX_EXT]; <br />
_splitpath(szFile,drive,dir,fname,ext);<br />
CString szChm;<br />
szChm.Format("%s%s%s.chm",drive,dir,fname);<br />
nCmd = HH_HELP_CONTEXT;<br />
::HtmlHelp(AfxGetMainWnd()->m_hWnd,szChm,nCmd,dwData);<br />
I needed to have the platform SDK installed to get the htmlhelp.h and .lib files. With those added to my project, the help seems to work identically to the way it did with WinHelp (jumps to the right topic,...).
If you see something that I may have overlooked or could be doing better, please let me know.

Hi All,
We can build a project in Debug or Release mode.
Why we have given these two options...

I want to know,Is there any difference between the exe build by Debug and Release....

Ofcourse, debug build have dignostic information for debugging purpose, and obviously will be larger in size. You are not supposed to distribute debug versions.
Refer debug[^] section here on CP for more information.

Sorry to jump in here:
You meant to say: USUALLY, the debug build will be larger than the release build. I've also seen release builds of 2 Megs vs. debug builds of 500K.
Other than that, you are dead on target
Cheers,
Sebastian

Just have the two debug and release use slightly different settings for unrolling and inline

In a Debug-Version are a lot of data and allocation verifications, information about the
runtime, etc...
For that reason, in Debug-Mode the execution stops at Breakpoints for example, in release not.
In a Release-Version you don't have all these verifications, your programm runs faster.
Thats the general theory of it, but i can't tell you the exact details

Hi to all, I'm new to vc++ and I've read a bit on how to create a new form and load it (make it appear on screen). But i have this code and its corresponding error and would be glad if someone could point me in the right direction.
There's three forms, Form1 (login form) and gymMain a main interface. So what I tried to do is first load the application with gymMain and make its Visible state FALSE, next load Form1 (login) and upon confirmation of input, close Form1 and make gymMain visible. Now I try this with the below code and the erorr is shown below. All help/suggestions appreaciated.

Your problem is not about headers, but I think you are relating Form1 with wrong namespace.

tks for ur help. bt I tried using something like below (without the GymManager namespace) and it still provded an error that said "undeclared identifier Form1"
alternative code tried:
-----------------------
Form1 ^login= gcnew Form1();
login->Show();
|
|

You need to use name of namespace Form1 is member of, clearly I could not see class Form1's definition in your code.

tks for ur reply. bt i'm still lost if u know wat i mean, If u can provide a sample code of how to use wat u r talking about it would be very helpful...
I dont know where exactly in Form1's definition i would need to put the namespace (besides I'm new to this managed c++ stuff - work better with Java)
Tks for ur help once again.

Just take a simple form application
namespace TestForm {
using namespace System;
using namespace System::ComponentModel;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;
using namespace System::Data;
using namespace System::Drawing;
public ref class Form1 : public System::Windows::Forms::Form
{
public:
Form1(void)
{
InitializeComponent();
}
};
}
In above example TestForm is a namespace and Form1 is class.
luhfluh wrote: I dont know where exactly in Form1's definition i would need to put the namespace
You are getting it wrong. Class will be member of namespace.

tks, bt i think i'm just in the right frame of mind to grasp where to include it...The namespace GymManager is already defined in Form1's header, and within it there is the

details and so it is for all the other forms. So with what I understand from ur explaination the class within the namespace should be called without problems if only it is within the namespace.
prasad_som wrote: I'm there is similar concept in Java.
interfaces or abstract classes are there yes, and are similarly defined and used. but I cant get ma head around this.
tks anyway.

Yep - comparing that code to the stuff I have had to write in the past to do something similar with good old MFC, I can see the improvement...
Yep! Gotta love progress...
