I haven't played it myself, as I'm quite busy writing more such games. But I heard that this one was quite addictive. You must try it to believe it.

Note: Did you know that this game is very highly portable? Smile | :)

You can use of DirectX or Opengl but which of them has some limited to use on the OS,you can use of exist 3d engine's that some of them are free you must be search on the internet or you can make it yourself for make a game you need to a program like 3dMax and a program for make audio effect's and a language like c++.

Hi all,

I have a dialog based application and i have added two toolbars to it.
But i don't want to display in 2 different lines.
i.e if i select a button then 1 menu should be visible and when i click on the 2nd button i should see the other toolbar in the position of the 1st toolbar.

Thanking you Blush | :O

delete a folder

Hello,
I'm trying to delete a folder with all subfolder that are in it.

I found this structure on MSN

typedef struct _SHFILEOPSTRUCT {
    HWND hwnd;
    UINT wFunc;
    LPCTSTR pFrom;
    LPCTSTR pTo;
    FILEOP_FLAGS fFlags;
    BOOL fAnyOperationsAborted;
    LPVOID hNameMappings;
    LPCTSTR lpszProgressTitle;
} SHFILEOPSTRUCT, *LPSHFILEOPSTRUCT;

try it like this

SHFILEOPSTRUCT op;
op.pFrom = _T("C:\\zipTest\\td10Updater\\*.*\0\0");
//op.pTo = _T("");		//will be ignored
op.wFunc = FO_DELETE;
op.fFlags = FOF_SILENT;
SHFileOperation(&op);

what is wrong ?

I think you can use code in this way.

CString szFilePath = "D:\\DEVAPP\\TestApp\\Debug\\delete";
char aChars[MAX_PATH];
memset(aChars, '\0', MAX_PATH);
strcpy(aChars, szFilePath.GetBuffer(1));

SHFILEOPSTRUCT op;
op.hwnd = AfxGetApp()->GetMainWnd()->m_hWnd;
op.pFrom = aChars;
op.pTo = "";
op.wFunc = FO_DELETE;
op.fFlags = FOF_SILENT | FOF_NOCONFIRMATION | FOF_NOERRORUI;;

SHFileOperation(&op);

Smile | :)

I found what was my problem prior to deletion I browse the folder with a recursive function.

Then when I try to delete the subdirectory cannot be deleted, they are in use... I cannot understand why.

For browsing I used

WIN32_FIND_DATA FindFileData;     
	HANDLE hFind

and while condition

while(FindNextFile(hFind, &FindFileData)!=0)

If you want to delete the folder with all sub folders then there is no need of recursive function. Smile | :)

I have a folder , I must browse this folder in order to make a 1:1 copy on a ftp server. Then I must delete this folder.

For the browsing I use a recursive function. Now for some reason the subdirectory are still in use after the function ends and I cannot delete them....

Perhaps you missed this from MSDN:

When the search handle is not needed,
close it by using the FindClose function.

Since you haven't closed the handle, it's still in use.

Hope that helps.

Hi Everyone,

I am using ListView in Report style with 4 colomn, how can I paint the 4th subitem field with desired color.

I tried to do it with OwnerDraw but it is filling the full row, I applied tha same with CDDS_SUBITEM but getting desired result.

How can I achieve this?

I am awaiting for your response.

in this case you can use the CustomDraw feature of List control. For this subscribe the NM_CUSTOMDRAW notification from list control and draw the desired subitem as you prefer.

I tried with NM_CUSTOMDRAW and it is working but how can I fill the some area of 4th subitem with desired color?

my code is here

CListCtrl &ListCtrl=GetListCtrl();
	LPNMLVCUSTOMDRAW pNMCD = reinterpret_cast<LPNMLVCUSTOMDRAW>(pNMHDR);
	int nVar=pNMCD->nmcd.dwItemSpec;

	*pResult = CDRF_DODEFAULT;

	switch(pNMCD->nmcd.dwDrawStage)
	{
	case CDDS_PREPAINT:
		*pResult= CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW;
		return;
		
	case CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT:
		*pResult= CDRF_NOTIFYSUBITEMDRAW;
		 return;

	case (CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT | CDDS_SUBITEM):
		{
			if(pNMCD->iSubItem==4)
			{
				if(nVar%2)
					pNMCD->clrTextBk=RGB(232,232,244);
				else
					pNMCD->clrTextBk=RGB(255,255,255);
			}
		
			*pResult=CDRF_DODEFAULT;
			return;
		}
