Re: Calendar Control Doesn't Redraw Self JennyP27-Jul-02 18:51 JennyP 27-Jul-02 18:51  Hi Matt, With your help, I was able to solve the issue. It turns out that my VC++ wizard put in "AFX_IDW_DIALOGBAR" to both of my dialog bars' nID fields (in the Create() method). I used your suggestion to roll my own nID's (in resource.h) and it worked. In addition, I was able to remove UpdateData() from MainFrm.cpp which was really a cludge because my first dialog bar kept crashing the program if I didn't click on the document before the dialog bar. This was probably because the dialog bar wasn't properly initialized as in the first paragraph. If you could offer some ideas of why VC++ put in AFX_IDW_DIALOGBAR instead of a new one, I'd appreciate it... Is this something I should do for all such items? Also, if I update resource.h manually, will the VC++ wizard try to use the same integer if I create a new resource later? Finally, I'm manually creating (with no help from the dialog wizard) some edit controls because I'm wanting to draw them in a grid pattern on the dialog bar, and the dialog wizard just doesn't seem to get them exactly spaced equally (even using its space-even command). Thanks for your help!

Also, if I >> update resource.h manually, will the VC++ wizard try to use >> the same integer if I create a new resource later? This sounds like an anomaly to me. I've never had this problem before, but then again, I've never had two DialogBars in an app. I guess the best advice is to learn from the symptom so that you can quickly diagnose the problem next time. Also, I've edited both resource.h and the .rc file manually before and found that, if you're careful, you can do this without causing any problems. I am almost completely certain that as long as you don't introduce duplicate items to resource.h yourself, whether by ID or name (which should be caught by the compiler), you should be fine. I believe VC++ re-parses the file to determine the next ID every time a new resource is added. I'm glad you've solved your immediate problem, though. Best of luck to you and best regards.

Also, if you are using a dialog window you should filter messages in PreTranslateMessage.

Am I supposed to be doing something extra to tell the system that the class dll can write files? The crappy thing is that no error is generated, in fact stepping through each line the system seems to think the file was created just fine. But no file appears. I am using the XMLTextWriter to write the file. e.g. myXmlTextWriter = new XmlTextWriter (S"test.xml", System::Text::Encoding::UTF8); I have used Flush and Close, no luck. So what gives? thanks. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and to be loved in return - Moulin Rouge Alison Pentland wrote: I now have an image of you in front of the mirror in the morning, wearing your knickers, socks and shoes trying to decided if they match!

The file is generated but you are looking at the wrong place I wish Rama. That was my first thought, so I tried c:\test.xml to no avail. I even checked in the DEBUG folder, then set the project to RELEASE and checked in that folder. Nix, nada, nothing. Even compiled the app and ran it out of the DEBUG environment. Nothing. I even put in a FUBAR path (e.g. c:\sibling\kill\die!.][\\wicky\test.xml) and it still ran without generating an error. I would think it would throw an exception with a path like that. Some further info: The app that runs is the c# app. It loads with a Windows Form and in the form_load it creates an instance of the class I coded in C++. It then calls a function in that class which contains the code which is supposed to write an XML file. If I take that XML code, translate it to c# and put it in the c# app, then the XML file appears. If I run the C++ class library on it's own and call that function, the XML file appears. But as soon as I try and call the c++ class lib function from c#, the XML file does not appear. No errors either. To me it seems as though the c++ class lib is not getting the neccesary rights to write a file. But then it should throw an exception surely? *sigh* Be glad when this contest is over lol regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and to be loved in return - Moulin Rouge Alison Pentland wrote: I now have an image of you in front of the mirror in the morning, wearing your knickers, socks and shoes trying to decided if they match!

Lo and behold it starts returning exceptions. Errors I can deal with, it is when you get nothing that I get frustrated. Maybe I should try this in normal C++ and leave MC++ alone. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and to be loved in return - Moulin Rouge Alison Pentland wrote: I now have an image of you in front of the mirror in the morning, wearing your knickers, socks and shoes trying to decided if they match!

That is tantamount to a challenge of the highest order. Now not only do I have to win that contest, but I have to do it well enough to impress Rama Programmer Guru Krishna, hehe. Well I don't fully understand the problem yet, but I have got the code working by not using a bool and rather using a String*. I assume it has some managed types explanation behind it.

Paul M Watt26-Jul-02 5:40 Paul M Watt 26-Jul-02 5:40  If you are simply concerned that windows is optimizing your threads processing effectively, you should know that it runs all of your threads on different processors until it has to double up on a processor. So it tries to maximize the through put of the multi-processors parallel processing.

It'll give you complete path, including filename. If you want to have only directory part left, copy the filename into CString, then use CString::ReverseFind and CString::Left.

I tried to outsource some common classes from some existing projects into a shared static WIN32-library. The classes were implemented into a MFC dialog application and make use of MFC templates such as "CMap" and also of MIDL base_types like "hyper"... The problem is: If I try to compile those classes within a static WIN32-lib workspace, Visual Studio mourns about that "hyper", "CMap", etc. are unknown (Error C2501). Although I've set the option that I want to use MFC in this library. I think that I have to link some more headers or set some switches in the properties of the static lib workspace... But I found no suitable hints at the MSDN library at all! So... Maybe someone can give me a tip how to implement "hyper", "CMap" & Co. into a static WIN32-library...??? *pls* Many thanks in advance! With best regards, Andreas Dilling
