With MFC:

m_someEditbox.SetFont( &m_font );

where m_font is a CFont member of your dialog class.

API-version:

SendMessage( handletocontrol, WM_SETFONT, (WPARAM)fonthandle, MAKELPARAM(redraw, 0);

where handletocontrol is a handle to the control to set the font for, fonthandle is the handle to a font (!) and redraw is a BOOL flag, either TRUE or FALSE if the control should be redrawn immediately.

HI!

When I'm debugging and stepping through my code, in certain places I get the message "There is no source code available for the current location.", even though it is my own code, and the files are in my project... Anyone know how to fix this?

Is it possible to make my popup CDilalog into another Cdialog (making it as a child) I’ve figured of the CWnd::ModifyStyle func but it return false when I for e.g. run:

m_dialog.ModifyStyle(ModifyStyle( 0 ,WS_CHILD );

Any suggestions how I could tackle the problem.
I’ve searched for articles round the net but no success…

Thanks

Detecting drag on a window title bar

Hi!

I've have overridden CWnd::OnNcLButtonUp() to detect when I click on the title bar of my window. What I need now is to detect if I have released the window. This is so I click on my title bar and drag window to another position. How do I know when the drag has finished?

I have tried CWnd::OnNcLButtonUp() but it doesn't help.

Doesn't this just state the obvious. If you are writing native code then C++ will be faster!?! Given the speed of modern machines the majority of applications speed is not noticably different, from a user point of view, no matter what language they are written in.

The impression I get from his statement is that for .NET tasks C++ is preferred too. A lot (most?) of the native code in Longhorn is .NET.

how to use SetItemData?
very very thx poor english

lpszItemData = new TCHAR[strItemData.GetLength()+1];
lpszItemData = (LPCTSTR)strItemData;
m_etc.SetItemData(htiChild, (DWORD)lpszItemData);
}

save tree to a file

code:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

for(..)
{LPCTSTR pItemData;

......
}

You need to study pointers a little more

lpszItemData = new TCHAR[strItemData.GetLength()+1]; 
lpszItemData = (LPCTSTR)strItemData;

That's not going to work. You must copy the memory from the source string to the target string not just assign the pointer. Also you have a memory leak since you lost the memory address that was allocated with "new".

Greek leters and subscripts

I like to use greek letters and subcript indexes for mathematical expressions and formulas in dialog forms and output strings of my Visual C++ MFC programs. Can some one explain how to do that.
Thanks

You do this by selecting appropriate fonts when outputting. For editable text, you will want to use the Rich edit control. For captions, you'll need CStatics with font-setting capabilities.

For both types of controls, you'll find a multitude of articles on this site.

Very simple C++ question - include files

Hi I have a simple question on where to put #include statements. Should I put them in .h file, or in .cpp file? For example, I have a class A in A.h and A.cpp. Class A uses STL vector, so is it better for me to #include <vector> in A.h or A.cpp? ANd how about using keyword? Should I write using std::vector in A.h or A.cpp?

Thanks!

normally you include A.h in A.cpp
if you need to declare eg a vector in your .h file you need to use the #include here, if not, you still can put it here (because you include your A.h in your .cpp) or put it in your .cpp.

I'm not sure of the reason of putting includes in the cpp files, but I think it's because of inheretence of other files from your .h.

hope this helps.

You should never use the using keyword in your .h files. This way, you pollute the global namespace. It may not result in disaster for using std::vector, but you never know...
If you really want to use the using keyword, put it in the .cpp file.

The #includes can be in either. But a common approach is to put them in the .h.

So, in A.h

#include <vector>

// Use namespace qualifier std::
void foo(const std::vector& vec);

In the A.cpp

#include "A.h"

using namespace std;

void A::foo(const vector& vec)
{
}

But never put using namespace std;

in the header.

If whatever you need to include also needs to be include in another file to work with your class (say for instance, one member returns a vector), then put the include in the header file.

Also, if your class (or whatever) encapsulates all dependencies then do not put the includes in the header file.
