Here is the problem, if a user of my application manually open and edit the file and disturb its syntax, then ofcourse program will not work. So, i do not want to distribute a plain text file to user. Instead i want to provide user a dll, in which this data must be present.
In my ipnion,I think the easiest solution is to rename your ***.txt as ***.dll.I mean,user may think the file is a dll file,but it is a text file actually.

As such is it possible for me to append dll data as what i am doing in case of text file?? If yes, than how do i make such dll and how i represent data in that dll whether char array or what??? Is there any other alternative solution you suggest for my problem ????
My answer is that you can program to change the True Dll file resource to complete your thoughts.
But I strongly suggest you to use my solution,I had use it in many many many project.It's my top secret  )

Hi
I have been looking for a sample code for global hooks. Those I have seen seem to all be called from a MFC application and not a standard C++ using API. I thought I had it down at one stage but the dll I wrote only seemed to catch calls to itself and the calling process. Any help would be appreciated.

I would like my MDI application to always display open files with "courier" font.
I assume i need to change the font in Appview::OnCreate.
I am having trouble understanding how to do this. Could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

I have never had to fully support UNICODE in my code before but I am making an effort to insure that all future code I write will work with it anyway.
I think I understand TCHAR, LPCTSTR, LPTSTR and all the _tcsxxx functions. BUT, I have a questions which I haven't been able to find an adequate answer to.
Many functions and classes use sizes in BYTEs when working with data. Examples include memcmp, memcpy, the _open, _write, _read file support functions, etc.
What is the correct way of working with these functions and UNICODE strings. My first thought is to write a macro or inline function like this:
#define _tcsbytelen(text) (_tcslen(text)*sizeof(TCHAR))
and use this whenever working with functions where BYTE length is needed. Is there a more correct way of doing this that I have overlooked?
Thanks,
Matt Gullett
PS. MFC is not an option and whatever solution I find must work with or without STL too.

That is correct in some cases, such as writing the string to a file. However if you are copying the whole string including the null terminator (such as with memcpy) you need to add 1 to the length:
(1 + _tcslen(text))*sizeof(TCHAR)

Thanks for the response. (Love your articles)
Is 1 enough in these situations or should I really be using sizeof(TCHAR)?
Is the NULL terminator for UNICODE strings just 1 byte? Surely not?

What you have is right. In the code I gave earlier, you aren't adding 1, you're adding 1*sizeof(TCHAR), which is 2 in Unicode builds. The terminating zero in a Unicode string is 2 bytes, the same size as the other characters.
So if you have the Unicode string L"Bob", the byte length is (1+_tcslen(L"Bob"))*sizeof(TCHAR) => (1+3)*2 => 8

to use unicode string, u should forget words "NULL terminator".
there is no such terminator in a general unicode string.

Hi all,
I have a very trivial question regarding float format.
I have the following two statements.
int a = 3.145;
printf ("%f\n", a);
As a result of printf I get 0.0000 why?
I was expecting 3.0000
Any help in this regards
best regards

because if you tell printf that you are giving it a double (%f) then you have to give it a double. it can't perform the cast from int to double for you, because the "..." argument list mechanism that printf uses is not type-safe or even type-aware.
try printf("%f\n", (double)a);

There is no type-checking done on the extra printf() parameters. If you have %f in the format string, it's up to you to actually pass a float variable there. Since you are passing an int, all bets are off.

Two things,
There is no such thing as dumb question, providing the people have done a little bit of investigating first before asking the question.
Secondly, the question forums are only a small part of the CP experience, it is the wealth of articles and information available that make CP stand out from the rest of the crowd.

Here's a way to improve the site - leave. I do harbour concerns that CP is getting cliquey, but a bigger problem seems to be the influx of morons who want us to do their homework and don't want to do any work or participate in the site.

*grin* you may have a point. I'm feeling a little worn out at the moment, work has just been boring, home projects seem to have stalled. But life is better today, I've been moved to the ASP.NET project. I'm stoked.

there is only one MFC usage in it and it's a CString that you can easily replace with const char *.

How can I stop the X from closing the window?
I don't want to disable it, I just want it to hide the window, not close it.

Handle the WM_CLOSE message, and call ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_HIDE) in response to it.

A problem that I see with this method is that another control could not send a WM_CLOSE message and have the window close, you would either have to set a flag in your WndProc to allow it to close at certain times, you would have to out right destroy the window.
