Folder with same name is not possible, Do you mean, the file with same name is created like "Copy of File1" if there is "File1" already or something like that?

Thanks,

You cant make same folder on that folder but you can use of some character with our name.

I need some tips on how to find out why this is happening.

I got a workerthread. And when it has added an item to an queue, I post a message to mainframe. (the message has been created with ::RegisterWindowMessage(...) )
using PostMessage( hWndMainFram, MY_MESSAGEID , 0 , 0 );

And in CMainFrame::PreTranslateMessage(...) I trap the message and I pick up the item from the queue, This all work very well. Except in one situation.

If the user are in a menu. If an menu is shown at the same time the postmessage are sent from the workerthread, The message is never recieved in CMainFrame::PreTranslateMessage(...)

Anyone got any ide on how to fix it.

Radio Button Query.

I have an MFC Dialog which houses 3 radio buttons.

I want to take some action only when user selects radio button which is not selected already so that I don't perform the same set of actions if a user RE-Selects a radio button.

Can someone advise me what's the best way to achieve this ?

Thanks
Cage

Hi,

You mean when clicking the same radio button again and again or when selecting a button and change to other again come back to previous button?

In second case, you can set a static variable like static bool bAlreadySelected = true when the button clicked already it will be true. Otherwise perform the set of options.
Set the above variable to false at startup of dialog.
This is one way. There may be some other way too.

Thanks,
Suman

No Suman, that doesnt solve my problem.

I want to take a certain action everytime the control is transferred from the other radio button, not just for the first time.

Let me be more clear. Example -

Three radio buttons be A, B and C.

I want to perform certain operations everytime user has selected A or B and then he clicks C, but I don't want to take any action if user re-selects C.

That's not very complicated: in your class declare an integer variable (e.g. m_currentSelected). On each of your radio button handler functions, assign a value to this variable (e.g. 1 for the first radio button, 2 for the second, ...).

It is easier with code:

void CMyClass::OnRadio1Clicked()
{
  if(m_currentSelected==1)
      return;

  // Do stuff....

  m_currentSelected = 1;
}

signed to unsigned char conversion

hi I am working in complete 'C' environment on UNIX. I have to convert signed char and signed char* to unsigned char and unsigned char* respectively.
I have read that using (unsigned char) is not very safe and can cause.

Please suggest me any way I can do this conversion. Is there some function I have to write?
Please help

think because thats what matters

Cast to appropriate type! E.g.

signed char SignedChar = 'A'; // signed keyword can be skipped!
unsigned char UnsignedChar = (unsigned char)SignedChar;

signed char* pSignedChars = "ABCDEDF"; // signed keyword can be skipped!
unsigned char* pUnsignedChars = (unsigned char*)pSignedChars;

vikramaditya234 wrote:

Normally signed chars are used for string operations and unsigned chars are used as bytes. In windows a BYTE is an unsigned char! signed chars normally have NUL termination and unsigned chars are normally accompanied by their length, since users of such an array don't have an idea where it ends! So how safe it is depends on how you code!

You're right, there is no need to cast stuff here as they basically are just different representation of the same data. It should work without having to cast, for example:

char C = '-';
unsigned char U = C;

char *c = new char;
*c = 'a';
unsigned char *u = new unsigned char;
*u = *c;

Are you getting a compile time error or something? Could you show us what and how you are exactly trying to do?

The signed attribute would matter to you, only if you are performing some kind of arithmetic operations on it. Smile | :)

I don't agree. If you don't explicitely cast for the first case (char to unsigned), you'll get a warning because data might be lost. So, for me putting an explicit cast would mean "Yeah, I know that data might be lost but I know what I'm doing (e.g., that will never be the case here)".

For the second case (pointers), you'll get an error because type pointed are unrelated.

I also said that it the signed and unsigned property would matter if you perform some kind of arithmetics (in case you may be worried about the data loss).

You mean the code I provided will produce an error during compilation? Please try it. It should compile. Smile | :)

I thank you all for giving your response.
I do like to add i strictly cant use typecasting to change char* to unsigned char* and vice-a-versa the unsigned variables mostly contain numerics and cant afford to loose any data.
Is there however a way to typecasting without the regular (unsigned char*) and (char*)
