No.
Well, yes, you can if you handle all the drawing yourself (and now we're speaking all NC painting also), intercepting and changing x&y mouse positions and so on.
But short of that? No. It would be easier to turn the screen 90 degrees to be unable to read it normally. 
I won't ask "why angry and confused" (whatever that means).

Theoretically, you can draw anything on your screen, just derive your own dialog class from CDialog and override all the painting related methods.

I have seen many documentations on cutting, copying, pasting, filenames to and from Explorer into an App... but I do not understand how it is done. I am looking for source code to demonstrate it. If someone could please point me in the right direction, coded samples would be a great help. Thank you.

Check out my article on drag & drop in the Shell section - it uses the same data format (DROPFILES) as copy/paste.

Ok, I'm a newbe when it comes to templates, even though I've been programming C/C++ for over 25 years. I just havn't gotton around to learning templates.
What I want to do is write a template string class that supports either char* and wchar_t* (but not necessarily at the same time). I know I can do this:
template<class type="">
class UStringT
{
public:
UStringT() { sptr = NULL; }
~UStringT() {if(sptr) delete[] sptr;}
TYPE c_str() {return sptr;}
void operator=(TYPE* string);
private:
TYPE* sptr;
};
So far, so good. Now the hard part -- how to use standard C/C++ library functions functions: for example, if I want the length of the string, it needs to call strlen() it TYPE is char*, or wcslen() if TYPE is wchar_t*. How do I put that logic in the template?
** This does NOT work ***
If TYPE == char
return strlen(string)
else if TYPE == wchar_t
return wcslen(string);

why are you not using std::string, which does all of this ?
Anyhow, the answer is template specialisation. You can write a length function defined differently for different values of TYPE.

Thanks for the tip, Chris. I didn't know std::string could be used that way. This seems to work the way I want it to:
typedef basic_string<char> charA;
typedef basic_string<wchar_t> charW;
template<class TYPE>
class UStringT
{
public:
UStringT() { }
~UStringT() {}
const TYPE& c_str() {return sptr;}
void operator=(TYPE strng);
int length() {return sptr.length();}
private:
TYPE sptr;
};
int foo()
{
UStringT<charA> string1A;
UStringT<charW> string1W;
string1A = "Hello World";
string1W = L"Hello World";
return 0;
}

Yes, that is exactly how std::string works. Your class is superfluous, the two typedefs give you a wide and a narrow string. I believe there is a std::stringW ( or similar ) as well as std::string providing typedefs for the two templated types of std::basic_string already.

That reminds me of one of my favorite "neat trick" macros:
typedef std::basic_string<TCHAR> tstring;

> template specialisation
is this thing supported in vc++...I remember people complaining the lack of it et al

Specialization is (partially) supported. Partial specialization is however explicitly not supported at all, even in VC7.

I would have to read it more than twice to understand what you where trying to tell. Thanks.

Yes, specialization is supported. It's essentially overloading a template for a specific set of template params. Partial template specialization is one that's not supported (maybe it is "partially" - I still don't understand how it works).
template class CFoo<typename T>
{
public:
void DoStuff ( T t ) { ... }
};
template<> class CFoo<char>
{
public:
void DoStuff ( char ch ) { FormatDrive(ch); }
};
main()
{
CFoo<int> foo_int;
CFoo<char> foo_char;
foo_int.DoStuff(42);
foo_char.DoStuff('C');
}I think I have all the syntax right... templates are a PITA sometimes.

i've never tried it before, how do i implement it?
thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm writing a Win32 app (Non-MFC), is there a way i can implement linked lists without using CList (MFC)
|
|
|
|
|
You could use the STL equivilent, or just write your own linked list class. Its pretty easy to do.
|
|
|

CString m_string = "123.45221"
double the_double = (double)m_string;
iz not working.iz dat the right way to convert or type cast a CString object to double ??
|
|
|
|
|
<br />
#include <stdlib.h><br />
<br />
CString str = "123.45";<br />
double f = atof(str);
|
|
|
|
|
double strtod( const char *nptr, char **endptr );

HI
I have created a window with CreateWindowEx and with toolbar style i want it to be fixed so that it cannot be resized. is there any special parameter to pass to make it fixed. PLZ do share the knowledge
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't want it sizeable, don't add the flags to make it sizeable - it's all in the documentation.
If you for some reason want a thick border (or sizebox, both are the same and both implies sizeable) but still want to prohibit the user from resizing the window (for whatever, malicious or not, reason), override the handling of WM_NCCALCSIZE.
It's spelled "Please", not PLZ.

thanks for ur consideration. i have find flags but could not find any if u know any let me know too.

I have an array of characters and I am trying to delete certain elements. The array conatains information about a file and has numerous blank and null spaces. I want to delete all of the null psces out of the array and also delete blank spaces that repeat throughout the array. I have an 'if' statement setup that recognizes if there are consecutive blank spaces or a null space. What is the command to then delete or remove the element at that point in the array. Thanks for the help.
Josh

as for as i know there is no way to delete the characters from array.better option is to take another array of chars and copy the non-null and non-blank chars to it. sorry if u dont like it.
|
|
|
|
|
I am pretty sure I know how to copy the elements to the other array. But the examples I have seen omit all of the characters that are not needed. I want to omit all of the null spaces, but I do need some of the blank spaces in order to separate words. Am I just trying to make this to complicated? I have found myself doing that a lot lately.
