listBox1->SelectedItem = "---- SELECT! ----";
listBox2->SelectedItem = "---- SELECT! ----";
radioButton1->Checked = true;
radioButton2->Checked = true;
Hi guys, I need my application to start with some pre-selected items in the list boxes and radio buttons, and I can achieve this by manually pasting the code above between the lines of the code which is automatically generated by VS2008 (using Windows Forms). By doing this the program works however the GUI Design page gets really screwed up and I loose the ability to make any further editing!
Where do these attributes have to be inserted? I have tried in the main{} section but it returns an error.
Help please!!

In general, you shouldn't edit any designer-generated code.
I don't do Windows Forms, but I believe typically you'd do those kinds of
initializations in response to the Load event.
You can add event handlers from the properties pane for your form and or controls.

Thanks for the advice, it works very well and the designer page is not affected.
It all needs to go into the Load event.
Cheers

Hi,
I am running through a problem and thought anyone here might help me out with this.
Here is my issue,
I am trying to convert an AVI ( 8 bits per pixel ) file into a stream of bmp files, though i am able to convert them the bmp images does not match the avi frames they are some what right shifted in a round robin way. Please let me know were i am going wrong. I am attaching the avi file and bitmaps of first 2 frames of the avi file, also attached is my code written in c++ on windows 2005 platform.
I converted the avi files into bmp frames using Irfan View and it worked fine.
Please let me know were i can i share my AVI file and generated BMP files.
Thanks
Santosh

Are you writing the BMP formatted data yourself?
A common error when creating BMP files is to not align rows of pixel
data on DWORD (multiple of 4) boundaries.
Also you need to write the header bytes correctly or BMP readers may
try to read pixel data starting from the wrong place in the data.
Can you post your writer code?

Please, anyone out there, can you explain clearly how to deal with Functions. I need more information on;
-create function,
-call function
-anything about functions and their applications.
Thanks!

You can deal with a function in different ways , like you can
Declare them : ();
Define them : () { }
&
Call them : x = ();

You sound like someone new to programming. A program is a set of statements, executed one after the other. Functions are a way to give a group of statements in a program a name of their own. You can then 'call' that function using the name, and the statements in the function are executed in place of the call.
Here's an example: Suppose you want to add one to a number, multiply the result by seven, and then divide that by two:
int number = 5;
number = number + 1;
number = number * 7;
number = number / 2; Now suppose you need to do this with several numbers. Typing the same lines of code over and over seems kind of dumb, so let's turn this into a C++ function:
int ProcessNumber(int number)
{
number = number + 1;
number = number * 7;
number = number / 2;
} and you can use this function like this:
num1 = ProcessNumber(5);
num2 = ProcessNumber(34);
num3 = ProcessNumber(-9); Basically functions are just a kind of shorthand for referring to a group of statements. Functions become really useful when you realize that they can call each other.

Hi,
you really should buy a book on the programming language of your choice, and study it from the first page till as far as you get, only then start programming something. That will teach you the essential terms and concepts much faster than anything else, explain things correctly and provide simple examples and exercises.

I am reluctantly new to VC++/CLI 2005. Home-Sweet-Home is VB - even VB5. Using VS 2005 I have two plroblems current.
a) How do I produce a pointer to an EXISTING user-defined type in C++/CLI. A search of MSDN and texts all give examples using gcnew.
b) My editor has lost the ability to show my main form in design format. The remaining forms are OK but the corresponding procedures do not wake up the main form in design format. It has the most on it and I hate the idea of starting afresh or working my way through the verbose code. I found one other on MSDN who had this problem, found no solution and has thrown VS2005 out (for other reasons as well). VS warns not to change the name and that has NOT been done. This has never happened to me using the VB or C# editors.
I'll be grateful for help. This 'adventure' has not been fun and I'll be glad when I get home again.
Regards, Ron

C++/CLI uses handles (^) to point to managed types. So if you have a managed class Foo, pointer to foo will be
Foo^ fooPtr = gcnew Foo() Is your existing user-defined types are managed types? If not, you can use the normal pointer like
Foo* fooPtr = new Foo;

Thanks (again) for your fast reply. I HAVE ordered that book you sugested but it is yet to arrive. So, I'm still very ignorant. I read:
Foo^fooPtr = gcnew Foo()
as
poiter-to-thing-called-Foo named-fooPtr = new Foo()
and relating to a new instance of Foo() referenced by a pointer instead of a name. I don't want a new Foo(). I want a pointer to the Foo() that was instanced previously elsewhere. Have I completely misunderstood the syntax?

Ron

Strange! So where are you keeping that pointer? If you could explain what you are trying to achieve, I think there will be better solution.

"Strange"? Oh dear, I must be way off.
Early in the project I instanced a type:
cdVersionInfo cdVI;
I first cleared it with:
memset(&cdVI,0,sizeof(cdVersionInfo));
After including "memory.h" this gave no errors.
memset() accepts &cdVI but VC++ 2005 does not. Yet I need a pointer to cdVI for a function RCStartSDK in a .dll. Using &cdVI in memset and my project compiles with no errors (I must check data in cdVI tonight) but using &cdVI in calling RCStartSDK gives a compiler error that using & is an anachronism.
The memset line comes from a VC++6 example of how to use the SDK. Imported and converted for VC+++2005 does not alter either code using of &cdVI and the exaple still works with both. But the same code in my project does not work. Even including the example's H file into my project does not help.
If I was at "AT HOME" I would say cdVIptr=VarPtr(cdVI). I have a (slightly) horrid feeling I need to change the first instance f cdVI to your suggestion. I still need to be able to clear the type and cdVIptr has to be global and I assume I set values:
cdVIptr^.SIZE = sizeof(cdVersionInfo);
or
cdVIptr*.SIZE = sizeof(cdVersionInfo);
depending on circumstances.
Am I struggling in the right direction or am I unable to see the jungle for the vines?
One day perhaps...
But its really hard going back to school at 72. I speak a litthe Italian, French and German, but the dialects always confuse.

Ron

Thanks for looking at my question,
I am wondering how I would use the ToUpper and ToLower functions on only part of a string in .net C++.
For example, I converted an inputted name to all caps for the purpose of comparing it. Now I need to display the name with only the first letter capitalized.
In short, I need to make "BRAD" to "Brad"
Note that the inputted name is not always the same, so however you can show me how to do this has to work with any inputted name.
Thanks for any help!!

TabascoSauce wrote: with only the first letter capitalized.
Sentence case? You can write code using SubString(), ToUpper() and ToLower(). Here it is.
String^ ConvertToSentenceCase(String^ input)
{
return (input->Length > 0) ? String::Concat(input->Substring(0,1)->ToUpper(),input->Substring(1)->ToLower())
: String::Empty;
} Other methid is to use TextInfo class and work with ToTitleCase method. Here it is
String^ ConvertToSentenceCase(String^ input)
{
using namespace System::Threading;
return Thread::CurrentThread->CurrentCulture->TextInfo->ToTitleCase(input);
} Hope that helps

Hey thanks for the help!
Sadly I am still having issues, after I tried to build it the build log gives me the error:
"1>.\TempConverter.cpp(37) : error C2440: 'return' : cannot convert from 'System::String ^' to 'int'
1> No user-defined-conversion operator available, or
1> There is no context in which this conversion is possible
Here's the block of code I have your second suggestion in (yes I am very, very new to programming, I'm trying to overachieve on an assignment in my online class):
if (name->CompareTo("ALPHA" || "BETA" || "GAMMA") != 0)
{
Console::WriteLine("Sorry, you have insufficient rights to access to this program");
Console::Write("Please enter 1 to end the program: ");
endProgram = Convert::ToInt16(Console::ReadLine());
}
else
{
if (name->CompareTo("ALPHA" || "BETA" || "GAMMA") == 0)
{
using namespace System::Threading;
return Thread::CurrentThread->CurrentCulture->TextInfo->ToTitleCase(name);
Console::WriteLine("Hello ", initial->ToUpper() , ". ", name);
Console::Write("Are you converting from celsius or fahrenheit?: ");
tempr = Convert::ToString(Console::ReadLine()->ToLower());
}
I'm trying to get it to write something like "Hello M. Beta"
Feel free to point anything else I've done wrong (to an expert this probably looks horrible).
Again thanks for your time and anymore help you can give me!

Aah, you copied my code to a wrong place. Try this
String^ ConvertToSentenceCase(String^ input)
{
using namespace System::Threading;
return Thread::CurrentThread->CurrentCulture->TextInfo->ToTitleCase(input);
}
if (name->CompareTo("ALPHA" || "BETA" || "GAMMA") == 0)
{
using namespace System::Threading;
name = ConvertToSentenceCase(name);
Console::WriteLine("Hello ", initial->ToUpper() , ". ", name);
}

Ahhh, Ok I understand now.
Thanks for the help! After I busted through like 100 other errors I had in my program I finally got it to work.
You're a lifesaver, have a good day!

Hello All
I have two USB audio devices attached to the system. Using API's "SetupDiEnumDeviceInterfaces" and "SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetail" I am able to figure out their unique device paths which is in this format
"\\?\hid#vid&pid&col02#7&1bca1430e&0&0001#{some id}"
"\\?\hid#vid&pid&col02#7&3db23aebe&0&0001#{some id}"
Also on using the API "waveInGetDevCaps" I am able to find out the unique strings the system is using to identify this device which are "USB Headset" and "USB Headset (2)", my question is how can i know from my application which "USB Headset" is linked to the which of the above mentioned path. Or is there a way to map the audio devices listed in “Sound and Audio Devices” settings with the actual hardware programmatically.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
OS (2000, XP, Vista), VS2005 ( VC++ IJW )
Thanks

I have a nested managed class and I would like to expose the properties of the nested class to C# and VB. How do I do this?
In the following C++ managed class, I can see all of the properties of FitnessUserProfile in VB. I can see the Activity class within the FitnessUserProfile object in VB but I can't see any FitnessUserProfile.Activity properties.
What am I doing wrong?
I am using Visual Studio 2005.
namespace GarXface<br />
{<br />
<br />
<br />
public ref class FitnessUserProfile : public ICloneable<br />
{<br />
<br />
public:<br />
<br />
property unsigned BirthDay<br />
{<br />
void set(unsigned day)<br />
{<br />
m_pProfile->SetBirthDay(day);<br />
}<br />
<br />
unsigned get()<br />
{<br />
return m_pProfile->GetBirthDay();<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
<br />
ref class Activity : public ICloneable {<br />
internal:<br />
<br />
Activity(void);<br />
<br />
public:<br />
<br />
property float MaxHeartRate<br />
{<br />
void set(float heartRate)<br />
{<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
float get()<br />
{<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
} <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

Make the nested class public. So it can be accessed by FitnessUserProfile::Activity . BTW, why are you exposing nested class?
|
|

|

Thanks but I have it working now. Not sure what I was doing wrong before.
And why wouldn't I expose a nested class? Activity is only useful within FitnessUserProfile.
Oh and you advice was wrong it generates an error:
Help file says the following:
When applied to a managed type, such as class or struct, the public and private keywords indicate whether the class will be exposed through assembly metadata. public or private cannot be applied to a nested class, which will inherit the assembly access of the enclosing class.
When used with /clr, the ref and value keywords indicate that a class is managed (see Classes and Structs (Managed)).
