HDC memDC = CreateCompatibleDC ( hDC ); HBITMAP memBM = CreateCompatibleBitmap ( hDC ); SelectObject ( memDC, memBM ); Interviewer (me) : "Did you install Linux all my yourself?" Candidate : "Yes i installed Linux all my yourself." Re: Help with OnPaint John R. Shaw6-Mar-04 6:18 John R. Shaw 6-Mar-04 6:18  Go look in the "Bitmaps & Pallettes" section of codeproject; both CDibSectionLite and CDibData provide ways of accessing pixels directly without having to select them into a DC first. Note: Accessing pixel data through any DC is very slow. INTP Re: Help with OnPaint Joe Woodbury6-Mar-04 11:51 Joe Woodbury 6-Mar-04 11:51  As was suggested before you need to create a compatible bitmap. You also need to pass the dc from the paint DC to the CreateCompatibleDC function, not the other way around. Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine. - P.J.

Whats the point of putting public at the top of a section, or private. Please help many thanks til Re: in confused David Crow5-Mar-04 10:24 David Crow 5-Mar-04 10:24  Protected indictates that only member functions, friends, and derived classes can access the members of that class. Public indicates that the members of that class are accessible by all. Private indicates that only member functions and friends can access the members of that class.

Protected only allows access by derived classes, so it's private to itself and any of its children that are derived from it. public is letting everyone have access, so that if you have a CEdit control object declared as public, another dialog or screen can access it. If it's broken, I probably did it bdiamond Re: in confused til rules5-Mar-04 10:31 til rules 5-Mar-04 10:31  Cheers guys, i appreciate it alot til Displaying a list of CD/DVD drives Dev5785-Mar-04 10:06 Dev578 5-Mar-04 10:06  I am using MFC, how would I go about finding and displaying all of the CD/DVD drives of the users computer?

Any help is appreciated. -Dev578 Re: Displaying a list of CD/DVD drives mmica5-Mar-04 10:09 mmica 5-Mar-04 10:09  Take a look at _getdrives() and GetDriveType() in MSDN. There is also an example.

Re: Displaying a list of CD/DVD drives David Crow5-Mar-04 10:17 David Crow 5-Mar-04 10:17  Have you seen the Enumdisk1 sample (article Q264203) on MSDN? It uses the Setup class GUID_DEVCLASS_DISKDRIVE GUID (4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318 I think) to enumerate all the disk devices that are installed in the system.

Call GetDriveType() on each one and look for a return of DRIVE_CDROM. --Mike-- Personal stuff:: Ericahist | Homepage Shareware stuff:: 1ClickPicGrabber | RightClick-Encrypt CP stuff:: CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | C++ Forum FAQ ---- Kosh reminded me of some of the prima-donna programmers I've worked with.

What APIs can I use to do that ? Thanks Re: How do I establish a dial up connection David Crow5-Mar-04 8:36 David Crow 5-Mar-04 8:36  Check out RasCreatePhonebookEntry() and the other RAS functions.

Interfaces like InternetGetConnectedState and InternetAutodial would probably be helpful - check the WinInet docs for details. Cheers, Lee.

Sargoytchev Dundas Software QueryInterface failing after network reconnect in DCOM Nirav Thakkar5-Mar-04 7:23 Nirav Thakkar 5-Mar-04 7:23  Hi, I have a weird problem in DCOM. Everything works fine until the network goes down. If after a short period of network failure, when the network connection is restored, and I do CoCreateInstanceEx again, that works ok too, however, now I can't get a QueryInterface to succeed to get an interface pointer. It fails with some RPC error in the HRESULT. This behavior is intermittant. Pl. help. Thanks, nct_11 Convert MFC Doc / View App to a COM server John M. Drescher5-Mar-04 6:53 John M. Drescher 5-Mar-04 6:53  Is it possible/easy to convert MFC Doc / View App to a COM / DCOM server? What I want to do is to have an external application query my running MFC application for the status of several internal operations using COM. John Re: Convert MFC Doc / View App to a COM server Prakash Nadar5-Mar-04 7:01 Prakash Nadar 5-Mar-04 7:01  Not easy thing to do, plus the mfc application may not be employing the best techniques for COM/DCOM application to work efficiently Interviewer (me) : "Did you install Linux all my yourself?"

Re: Convert MFC Doc / View App to a COM server basementman5-Mar-04 7:24 basementman 5-Mar-04 7:24  It may be easier to expose the data from your existing app via a pipe or socket, and then write a COM component that knows how to query that pipe/socket.  onwards and upwards...  Re: Convert MFC Doc / View App to a COM server John M. Drescher5-Mar-04 7:52 John M. Drescher 5-Mar-04 7:52  I was thinking of that but it does not seem like a simple operation and it will require a lot of work to implement. John Re: Convert MFC Doc / View App to a COM server l a u r e n5-Mar-04 8:20 l a u r e n 5-Mar-04 8:20  why use dcom? just expose an interface and use a standard network protocol ?
