The DirectX SDK (DirectShow) is one of the best starting points for writing codecs. You can download it from microsoft.
If you can keep you head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts you aim;
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it.

I have a project that will use a tabbed control (property pages?) as the primary interface. The tabs are arranged in such a way as to guide the user in the proper order of steps. Anyway, given that I need a title bar, a menu bar and possibly a toolbar - and eventually the whole thing needs to be sizeable, which is the best interface to use: MDI, SDI, or Dialog based? 
I've done a lot of C++ coding, but have very little experience in "starting from scratch" - so I plan to use the wizard in Microsoft's Visual C++ to get me started.
Any suggestions, pointers to articles, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!

Do you need multiple document support? If not, then you can rule that app structure out. From what you have been saying, a SDI style app with a CFormView view class. That would probably be your easiest straightforward path to take.
Keep in mind that you could use a CDialog-based application structure. Toolbar(s) can be added to a dialog and of course a menubar. There are articles on this site of how to add a toolbar to a dialog. Skim the articles on this page for help on adding resizability and toolbars to a dialog: http://www.codeproject.com/dialog/[^]
I hope this helps. Good luck in your programming efforts! 
Happy Programming and God Bless!

Thanks, bneacetp. I've been doing some more study since my post, and at this point I think I'm leaning toward the learning curve of the SDI style - since I'll eventually need most of what it does (including printing from the app, resizing, etc)
Thanks, also, for the well wishes!
Happy Programming and God Bless to you, as well!

I have a MFC Dialog which contains a Bitmap. When the application is run the dialog is always on top and I cant have any other Windows placed over it.
I have looked at the Dialog settings and cant find any that would cause this effect (problem).
Have I overlooked anything as I want to place the dialog in the background when required.

I have a "Generic CWnd" class named CData. This class will hold all of my data for the program. The "instance" is created in the CMainFrame constructor. Serveral dialog classes are created and launched fron the CData class. However, I cannot get the data from those dialogs realized or recognized by CMainFrame::m_CData(my instance of CData class in CMainFrame). The dialogs are created "modeless" in CData; and while active CData gains the data; but when returned to CMainFrame the data is not there in CData.
Any ideas?

Sorry if sounds patronising
have made the CDialog objects or the getter methods public in the CData class?
If you clarify what your are trying do.

how to get hash from BYTE *pass to HCRYPTHASH hHash using
CryptCreateHash and CryptHashData
//in this program hash doesn't change =(
HCRYPTPROV hCryptProv;
CryptAcquireContext(&hCryptProv, NULL, NULL, PROV_RSA_FULL, 0);
HCRYPTHASH hHash;
CryptCreateHash(hCryptProv,CALG_MD5, 0, 0, &hHash);
CryptHashData(hHash,pass,strlen(fPass)+1,0);
|

You're just missing the final step.
1. Get a CSP handle - CryptAcquireContext()
2. Create a hash object and specify hash algorithm - CryptCreateHash()
3. Add data to hash - CryptHashData() or CryptHashSessionKey()
4. Keep doing 3 until added all data
5. Finish hash and get result :
::CryptGetHashParam(hnd, HP_HASHVAL, BUFF, &BUFFLEN, 0); // BUFF is hash value
or,
::CryptSignHash(hnd, T, NULL, F, BUFF, &BUFFLEN); // BUFF is result signature
or,
::CryptVerifySignature(hnd, BUFF, BUFFLEN, pub, NULL, F); // BUFF is signature to verify
Each of these functions will finish the hash (i.e. add any algorithm required padding), meaning that any subsequent calls to CryptHashData() or CryptHashSessionKey() will fail. However, you can call any of these 3 multiple times safely, the hash is only 'finished' (padded) once.

Does anybody know how to draw the background for toolbars and rebars so that they match the currently selected XP colour scheme (blue, olive or silver). Th latest version of Office implements this so I assume it is possible to retrieve the background details via some API. The visual styles help in MSDN is very brief so any help you can give will be appreciated.

Actually, I don't think Office uses a 'public' API for this. If you run Office 2003 on Win2K you still get the same visual effects, even though Win2K doesn't support those effects itself.

How can I use C++ Dll that contains class in Delpphi&& Help!! SOS!!
|
|
|
|
|
Short answer: not possible cos delphi cannot use C++ obj/lib/dll files.
in anycase, u cannot use the dll with a c++ if u dont have the lib file. i believe though there are some tools that can create a lib file from a dll (msvc++ has one i think)

>> delphi cannot use C++ obj/lib/dll files.
That is not entirely accurate.
They cannot use each others classes but they can access C calling convention exported functions from DLL’s.
So the long answer is you would have to un-object orient the C++ class in a C++ DLL by exposing the functionality through a set of C style functions. Then the Delphi application can call the functions in the C++ DLL.

I wrote an Active X control in Visual C++ using only ATL (no MFC), for use on a web page. When the control ends, it needs to go to another web page within the SAME IE browser window.
I am currently using:
ShellExecute(NULL,"open",NewPage,NULL,NULL,SW_SHOW)
to do this.
The problem is that this opens the new web page (whose URL is NewPage) in the default Browser, which isn't always always IE (it might be Netscape for example). It also opens a new IE window if the user has unselected "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts" in their IE Internet options. The most common problem, however, is that it opens a new "tab" in "Slimbrowser" and other "tab" based browsers.
The only solution seems to be to get a "IServiceProvider" pointer to the current browser window, then I can do a "IServiceProvider::QueryService" to get a "IWebBrowser2" pointer, and then use "IWebBrowser2::Navigate" to go to the new URL in the same window. This technique is described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/01/06/c/
However, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the "IServiceProvider" pointer. In the above mentioned article, they said they got the pointer from the "Active Accessibility SDK", but not how. Also, I would prefer not to have to use this SDK.
I'm sure there is an easier way to do this. Remember that I can't use MFC!
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

hi !
I was testing out skinmagic demo for one of my apps,and came accross a few problems ..maybe experienced users can help me out on this.
problem 1 :
when i used irregular shaped dialog windows, the edges showed up as having a faint magenta lines ( i used magenta as my transparent color ).I made the image using photoshop 24 bit bmp,without any drop shadow.Can anyone tell me how to get rid of these edges?in the examples i saw dialog boxes with more complicated edges than mine but those didn't have a problem, and i am unable to find out the reason for this.Can anyone exolain why this happens ?
problem 2: i had a pulldown menu in my app, and when i skin it , the pulldown menu dissapears ! the popup menu (right click ) stays though...i mean it;s properly invoked on right click, but not the pulldown menu.
problem 3: As i said before i am using an irregular shaped dialog box in my main window.after skinning , the messageboxes are also assuming the same shape, which i do not one.i want my mnessageboxes to be plainer.Would specifying a control ID for the framedialog or the shapedialog help ?How can use a diff shape for my messagebox than my other dialog boxes?
I would be glad if anyone can solve my doubts.Thanks to all the contributirs in advance
Regards
Kane
