Custom Dialogs

Hello,

I'm writing the specs for my next project (well not really, I'm going through them in my head Blush | :O

), and I'm curious. Does anyone here know how to compile a dialog (or window) at runtime to an exe?

The project I'm considering writing is an autoplay type thingie (like demoshield(TM)). However, I'm lost as to how I would be able to compile an exe from a project file and have it work at runtime without an INI file or something.

Just looking for guidance, not necessarily code. Wink | ;)

As always, thanks.
Frank

The MSDN has a code snippet on how to create a dialog template - I used it the other day because we're writing a GUI library exposed through a Python console. Is that what you mean ?

The MSDN sample is called DLGTEMPL, you can get it from msdn.microsoft.com if you don't have msdn on your PC. I'd post some code for you, but it's Saturday morning and it's all at work Wink | ;)

Handler for Highlighting Text

Howdy all,

I've been stumped on something for a while now. I've got a CEdit subclass that I'm writing to change all sorts of nifty colors, but I can't seem to change the color (usually blue) that gets drawn as the background for text that gets highlighted. I've tried setting a breakpoint in the OnChildNotify function (which as I understand gets ALL messages) but it doesn't even trigger when I highlight text. Is changing the behavior something that I'm unable to do (maybe it's internal to windows)? Any ideas - if nothing else I'd just like to get to the bottom of it and satisfy my curious mind...

Thanks,
Dave

I think you want COLOR_HIGHLIGHT. This is a global setting so would have to be careful to reset it when finished. GetSysColor/SetSysColor

Hi,
i developped a class derived from static to represent real time data chart. To do this i used BitBlt.

I want to port this to an activeX control bun when I create an activeX with the wizard, i cannot accomplish Bit blitting.

Does someone have a solution ?

In classwizard generated code I find the following comment:

// Do not call CDialog::OnPaint() for painting messages

I don't really get it. What is the OnPaint function used for if not for painting? Is this the correct place to put my code for redrawing the window?
Do I update controls from here?

Could someone enlighten me on this?

Thanks

yes, you can use it for painting. just don't call it yourself (do an Invalidate, if you want to force a redraw)

if you update controls there, your controls will be VERY busy (it gets called a lot)

I'm assuming I should delegate control updates into other message handlers. Is that a better way to do it?

That line just means that you can't call the base class implementation for a WM_PAINT message, because it won't work. If you really need it, you can call it, but change CPaintDC to CClientDC in the derived class (you will lose updated region info).
I can't remember if the base implementation of OnPaint actually does something. In case it doesn't, use Default().

Now I want to handle the message of WM_MOUSEWHEEL. But while I add this handler in the message processing function, the VC++ compiler tell me that
error C2065: 'WM_MOUSEWHEEL' : undeclared identifier
but the WM_MOUSEWHEEL is identified while I check in the MSDN, and no other header file is requested in the help of MSDN. Confused | :confused:

WM_MOUSEWHEEL is declared in winuser.h; are you #including windows.h?

Use this line:

#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500

Why?

The Platform SDK Doc. say that it should also work under Win9x...
With that define, the application might only wotk under Win2k.

You might need to install the Platform SDK.

How to check out whether a file is existing?

You'd use the FindFirstFile() Win32 API function. Assume pstrFile is a pointer to the string filename below:

WIN32_FIND_DATA findData;
HANDLE hFile = FindFirstFile(pstrFile, &findData); // Have Windows check for the file.
bool bExists = (hFile != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE);

If the handle returned by FindFirstFile() is INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE, the file doesn't exist.

Try this:

BOOL FileExists(CString* fn)
{
	BOOL exists = FALSE;                   // assume failure
	if (!fn.IsEmpty())
	{
		int status = _access((const char*)fn,0);
		if (status == 0)
		{
			exists = TRUE;
		}
	}
	return exists;
}

Changing icon when program is not in focus

Mike Eriksson31-Aug-01 4:13

Mike Eriksson

31-Aug-01 4:13

Hello!

When You/I create an standard MFC application it will insert an icon for the app, the wellknown MFC icon. If I start the program then the icon will have the same background color as the 'Window banner' (if you are using the standard colors). If you change focus to an another program then the 'banner' will get 'grey' but the icon will still have the same background color (darkblue).

I see in other program, e.g. Visual Studio, that the background color of the icon changes not only when focus change but also when changing the Windows color scheme.

How do they do this??
