Re: Calling a function callback on a specific known thread Tomasz Sowinski14-Sep-01 8:40 Tomasz Sowinski 14-Sep-01 8:40  I think you should use PostThreadMessage and place the call to message handling code inside the thread's message loop, since messages posted with PostThreadMessage have hwnd == NULL.

How do u determine how long a sound or a video file is played? Is there some form of command that VC++ has that would allow me to input a file name and it automatically gives me an approximate playing time of the sound or video file? Thanks in advance.... Re: "Playing time" of a sound and video file? A.R.13-Sep-01 12:12 A.R. 13-Sep-01 12:12  You can do it through DirectShow. There is one interface (sorry I can't remember the name at this time, but you can find it very easily in the DirectX SDK documentation) that you can query through the IFilterGraph interface, and use the methods to get the time of the media file. Re: "Playing time" of a sound and video file? Christian Graus13-Sep-01 12:21 Christian Graus 13-Sep-01 12:21  Cool - I was hoping someone would answer this question. Looks like my weekend has been plotted out - I am working on a database for media files and this was my next problem. Thanks Christian As I learn the innermost secrets of the around me, they reward me in many ways to keep quiet. Men with pierced ears are better prepared for marriage.

I put a tab control on my dialog and implemented the code. The problem is that the buttons I have put on the tab have local message maps. I would like for them to call functions on my main dialog. I can not get the handle so that I can call class functions there. Help? Re: How do get a child dialogs handle? Paolo Messina13-Sep-01 12:10 Paolo Messina 13-Sep-01 12:10  Sample function: CMyTabCtrl::MyFunction() { CMyDialog *pDlg = (CMyDialog*)GetParent(); pDlg->TheOtherFunction(); ... } Do that only if the dialog is the parent window and it is of class CMyDialog.

This is what I get for not doing any windows programming for about a year. will not let that happen again. I think my problem was that I was casting as a CDialog instead of the derived class that includes all of my functions. Thanks Paolo. Sometimes to catch mice, you have to act like cheese... Resources do not always recompile Todd Smith13-Sep-01 7:52 Todd Smith 13-Sep-01 7:52  Sometimes when I edit a resource in a project and then do a build it doesn't seem to recompile the resources. I'm using some includes and defines to conditionally include external resources files. Is there a way to setup a VC project so that compliling the main rc file will depend on these external files? Re: Resources do not always recompile Tomasz Sowinski13-Sep-01 8:51 Tomasz Sowinski 13-Sep-01 8:51  When you open the properties for your .rc, what's displayed at 'Dependencies' tab? Are these external files listed there? Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: Resources do not always recompile Todd Smith13-Sep-01 11:11 Todd Smith 13-Sep-01 11:11  There are some externaly listed .rc files yes. And those external .rc files also contain links to files such as .ico, .bmp, and .txt which are compiled as resources. Re: Resources do not always recompile Tomasz Sowinski13-Sep-01 23:49 Tomasz Sowinski 13-Sep-01 23:49  Any chance of adding references of these .ico, .bmp and other files to your project? Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Parsing URLS in C++ 13-Sep-01 7:26 13-Sep-01 7:26  I am developing an ISAPI extension in C++. My project uses many HTML forms with text input boxes. When the forms are submitted (using "GET") I am parsing the values from the browser URL. This works nicely but the strings have escape characters (+ instead of space etc). Is there a better way to process the form information so that there are no escape characters, or does anyone know of a function/code that replaces the escape characters? Thanks Re: Parsing URLS in C++ Nemanja Trifunovic13-Sep-01 7:33 Nemanja Trifunovic 13-Sep-01 7:33  Actually, it's pretty easy to write a function that replaces escape characters and vice-versa. Escape characters are pretty good thing, and moreover, it is the standard. I vote pro drink Re: Parsing URLS in C++ Erik Thompson13-Sep-01 7:40 Erik Thompson 13-Sep-01 7:40  You should really look at ATL Server in that is coming out with VS.NET. It will make ISAPI Extension development much easier and more flexible. The urls and all the data submitted is very easily accessible. Cheers, -Erik ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My thoughts are my own and reflect on no other. Re: Parsing URLS in C++ Jon Sagara13-Sep-01 8:26 Jon Sagara 13-Sep-01 8:26  Look up the InternetCrackUrl() function in MSDN. Jon Sagara Sagara Software Re: Parsing URLS in C++ Todd Smith13-Sep-01 8:50 Todd Smith 13-Sep-01 8:50  Search the web for URL Encode and URL Decode. You should find something on sourceforge.com also. Re: Parsing URLS in C++ Anders Molin13-Sep-01 9:21 Anders Molin 13-Sep-01 9:21  Take a look at the InternetCanonicalizeUrl() function. It both encodes and decodes URL's. - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!" Re: Parsing URLS in C++ 20-Nov-01 8:47 20-Nov-01 8:47  You may want to use a C++ web application server, such as Lightning server, that handles all of that for you. Makes life much easier. STL containers Obliterator13-Sep-01 6:50 Obliterator 13-Sep-01 6:50  Hi all, I'm just beginning to learn STL, primarily the container classes and wanted to know what is the best way to store two related values. For example I wish to store x and y points in a graph... The vector container looks ideal for my needs... but am I correct in assuming I have to create my own class to contain the x and y values? Then store instances of my class in the vector container? Or, would the map container be me more suited to this purpose? Basically I need to know the most generic, but fast, way of storing such x y values. Thanks all. -- The Obliterator Re: STL containers Tomasz Sowinski13-Sep-01 6:56 Tomasz Sowinski 13-Sep-01 6:56  The vector container looks ideal for my needs... but am I correct in assuming I have to create my own class to contain the x and y values? Just use std::pair for that. Or, would the map container be me more suited to this purpose? It depends - if you want to frequently search for given x, the map may be better. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: STL containers Obliterator13-Sep-01 7:03 Obliterator 13-Sep-01 7:03  Wow, lightening fast response. Cheers... never even heard of std::pair.... Will look into it, thanks. -- The Obliterator CTreeCtrl multiselect? Ken Goguen13-Sep-01 6:13 Ken Goguen 13-Sep-01 6:13  Can anyone tell me how to implement multi-selection with the CTreeCtrl? I'm a bit green with MFC and doesn't appear obvious to me. Principle Design Engineer EMC Corporation Re: CTreeCtrl multiselect? Tomasz Sowinski13-Sep-01 6:28 Tomasz Sowinski 13-Sep-01 6:28  The solution was published in Oct'96 issue of Microsoft Systems Journal, in the C++ Q & A column. Chances are you have the article in your VC++ help - look in the 'Periodicals' section. If not, go to msdn.microsoft.com, then to MSDN Magazine and search for past issues. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com Re: CTreeCtrl multiselect? Ken Goguen13-Sep-01 8:37 Ken Goguen 13-Sep-01 8:37  Found it. Thanks Tomasz. Ken Goguen Principle Design Engineer EMC Corporation Re: CTreeCtrl multiselect? Obliterator13-Sep-01 6:32 Obliterator 13-Sep-01 6:32  To my knowledge it doesn't support it, although it may have been added in the later common controls. I have developed my own treectrl which supports multi selection and multi column support (some work my own, some based on others contributions to CodeProject and CodeGuru)... Ideally I keep meaning to post an article here with it... but never seem to get chance. Plus it contains code which needs improving - drag/dropping the order of columns for instance is buggy, the database support I added uses DAO classes which really need to be re-written in ADO or something. I never finished the sort routine... you know what I mean. Anyhow if you're desperate for something I guess I could send you it. Not sure if theres really a demand anymore for an article... there seems to be several multi-column tree controls now. -- The Obliterator
