Hi,
to make it without repainting will be impossible, but the delay is directly dependant on how your programm works.
I had a lot of delayment in my last project because I was creating/copying objects allover I needed something from the document. That mades have a delay of some 2 or 3 secs between doubleclicking to open a new window and having the window on the screen.
Solution? Working with pointers and accessing just the parameters I need in each concrete moment, but leaving the object in the doc.
In your project there can be different possibilities. Or you are charging images that are bigger than your container, then the computer has to edit the image to fit to size... or you are bringing the objects as me insteads of reading from a fixed place... or any other possibility.
If you post a bit of your code, relating your problem will be easier to look into.
Greetings.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Just wondering, how do you check if a USB Stick is inserted? Can you recommend some reading or maybe you can post the code. Thanks!

Look into the
RegisterDeviceNotification API call
You can set the filter level based on the type of device
Typically u can set a filter for type GUID_CLASS_USB_DEVICE
Now any Window class has an OnDeviceChange handler that provides a notification mechanism and inside u can check for the type ( typically GUID type) to see if its a Mass Storage Device class
Engineering is the effort !

That's about as useful as suggesting to look in the phone book under "tire repair" when you get a flat tire on your car. It would be more comprehensive, and a lot less tiring, to call the first name in the As and ask them what to do.

Method 1:
CMyDialog mMyDialog;
mMyDialog.Create(CMyDialog::IDD, this);
Method 2:
CMyDialog* mptrMyDialog;
mptrMyDialog = new CMyDialog;
mptrMyDialog -> Create(CMyDialog::IDD, this);
In method 2, I have to call delete mptrMyDialog before closing, but in method 1, mMyDialog will be destroyed when its parent is closed, correct?
So why is method 2 generally the preferred way? Method 1 seems to me like the simpler way because you don't have to worry about deallocating.

It all depends on the individual (and where they may have copied their code from).

The windows object (HWND) will be destroyed when the parent is destroyed.
The CMyDialog object is destroyed when it goes out of scope. If it goes out of
scope while its wrapped HWND is valid, the Windows object (HWND) will be destroyed
as well.
I suppose which method you use (in addition to DavidCrow's reply) depends on the
desired scope of the object and/or whether you want it on the stack or the heap.

wrong. after !!!
otherwise, you delete a dialog still being displayed !

I never heared this before ... the 2 methods are exactly the same for me.
The only difference that I can see is that using pointers you can pass the pointer from function to function, or, in a class, you can store the dialog pointer on a member variable of that class.

method 2 is preferred because the purpose of Create is to create a modeless dialog
so imagine you have this function somewhere
<br />
void OpenMyModelessDialog()<br />
{<br />
CMyDialog mMyDialog;<br />
mMyDialog.Create(CMyDialog::IDD, this);<br />
}<br />
as soon as the function returns the modeless dialog will be destroyed OOPS!!!

VC++,CClientDC and OnDraw's CDC
What is the difference of drawing a geomtric shape in the CClientDC and OnDraw's CDC?
|
|
|
|
|
OnDraw's CDC is a CPaintDC - a DC obtained through the BeginPaint() API in response to WM_PAINT.
CClientDC is obtained with GetDC.
OnDraw's DC will have a clipping region selected into it which excludes areas outside the area that
needs repainting. With a CClientDC, you'd need to do that yourself.
They draw to the same place though

I have a C++ Program which in which I have to read a XML file contents. The code is
#include "fstream.h"
#include "string.h"
#import "msxml2.dll" named_guids raw_interfaces_only
using namespace MSXML2;
using namespace std;
void main()
{
IXMLDOMDocumentPtr m_pXmlDoc;
IXMLDOMNodePtr m_pProductNode;
HRESULT hr = m_pXmlDoc.CreateInstance(MSXML2::CLSID_DOMDocument);
_variant_t vtFileName("my_xml.xml");
VARIANT_BOOL vtRetVal;
m_pXmlDoc->load(vtFileName,&vtRetVal);
}
The CreateInstance() call fails and m_pXmlDoc is NULL.
Why am I not getting the instance? What is wrong in this piece of code?

And the value of hr would be what?

On my PC hr = -2147221008 while debugging......guess its some junk value

It appears you have failed to call CoInitialize().

Thanks David. I had not called CoInitialize(). It works now.

You have guessed wrong. Use the Error Lookup tool to get the description of that error.

Well that hardly ever happens.

Try
HRESULT hr = m_pXmlDoc.CreateInstance( __uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument40));
This way, you ask explicitly for a DOM document version 4.

I get an error while compiling.
error C2039: 'DOMDocument40' : is not a member of 'MSXML2'
error C2065: 'DOMDocument40' : undeclared identifier
Could you please tell me th eproper file to include?

*I* do
#import "../thirdparty/msxmlbase/msxmlinclude/msxml2.tlb" named_guids but the path will be totally different for you.

I'm building an SDI app in VC++6. From Document, user can click on a button which opens a Dialog. Dialog has a CComboBox. The values of the CComboBox are populated from a dynamic array (~200 items) stored in the Document.
I figured out how to populate the CComboBox with static values using AddString in the InitDialog method of the Dialog.
BOOL CMslDatabase::OnInitDialog() <br />
{<br />
CDialog::OnInitDialog();<br />
m_msl_list.AddString("ICBM");<br />
m_msl_list.AddString("SRBM");<br />
return TRUE;<br />
}
Here's my problem. How do I pass the array to the Dialog so I can use AddString to populate the ComboBox with ~200 dynamic values?

You can do it when constructing the CMslDatabase object, or after by calling a CMslDatabase method. If you opt for the latter, be sure and do it before calling DoModal().

Missles, eh?
