Hi Mr.Graus,
Hmm, actually I don't know what information we need inorder to convert the format. But, I am having some information of those header files and it is as under
IFFCL_GRAY {
bits: 12
byte: @0=0x00
byte: @1=0x00
byte: @2=0x00
byte: @3=0x00
width:[@6=ishort]/2
height:@4=ishort
start_offset:128
line_offset:width*2
datatype: lsb_msb
}
this is wht I am having about them. If u need a sample file of those formats I can send u to ur mail if u can provide me with it (their size is around 8MB to 10MB each). If u know, if anymore details would help us in converting the formats.
One more doubt is, in your application of CSharpFilters, in Form1.cs I am not understanding how u r defining the Zoom menu items as
private void OnZoomXY(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
while for other menu items u r defining as
private void menuitem_menusubitem(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
thanks a lot,
Pavan.

The names of the menu items is irrelevant. I just didn't prettify them all when I was putting the code together

Hi Graus,
Sorry to disturb u again... I am having a problem while writing a program on image processing and I did refer your articles on them and they r very helpful. But, wht i am having is I ahve to read an image (which I did) and then I ahve to scan the image from 2nd row, second pixel (imagine the image as an 3D array of values [RGB]) and I have to consider all its neighbouring pixels (means we get a total of 9 pixels considering the center pixel) and then I have to some image processing techniques on it.
Especially can u tell where u r reading the 3X3 matrix ( i hope it is ConvMatrix class and u r creating an instance of that in each technique, but i didn't get how u r using one instance of that clas and performing the operation on whole image) in your program and how u r applying any image processing method on the matrix for the whole image (passing over the image from right to left and then top to bottom), I mean how u r updating ur convolution matrix for each pixel.
I hope I am bothering u very much and i am vey sorry for that.
thanks a lot,
Pavan.

The matrix is applied to each pixel in the image in the nested loop that steps through the x and y values. Each iteration of the loop is stepping through the matrix, working out pixel locations relative to the core pixel being modified, which is decided by the two x and y loops.

Hi Graus,
Thanks a lot and I have figured out ur code and understood. U did a great job in writing those tutorials which helped me a lot and I am waiting for this kind of tutorials from atleast 2-3 months.
Have u got any idea or figured out how to change the image format. Did u get any sense from the header info that i have given (I am not getting wht it is). Actually I dont know how images r converted from one format to another (not talkin abt the formats tht i am having). If u have any general idea let me know.
thanks a lot for ur help,
Pavan.

Well, they are converted by code. A bitmap is raw data, it's stored exactly the way I iterate over it. Different formats compress that data, or add extra data, or store the data differently. So you need to know how a format works in order to write code that translates it into another known format. I have no ideas with regard to the format you're looking at, sorry. Have you tried to google it ? Where do these files come from ?

thanks for ur instant reply. Actaully how do we know how a format works?..
My images are some medical images.. as far as I know they r X-ray images of spine and i beleive they r taken froms ome x-ray machines and the format may be some proprietery format.
The only data they have given to me is the one that I have given in my previous message.
I have already tried google in many ways, but of no use. It not even giving me atleast one site relating to this.
If u think I should have some more data to convert them or to know how they works, lemme know i would try to know some more data if possible. If u want i can send u a sample file.
thanks,
Pavan.

I'm sorry, I really don't have time to look at a sample file.
IFFCL_GRAY {
bits: 12
byte: @0=0x00
byte: @1=0x00
byte: @2=0x00
byte: @3=0x00
width:[@6=ishort]/2
height:@4=ishort
start_offset:128
line_offset:width*2
datatype: lsb_msb
}
This looks to me like the image is 12 bit greyscale, which means that there are 4096 shades of gray. Given that the line offset is twice the width, each pixel must be stored in 2 bytes, which is fine, given that this gives you 16 bits to play with, it's a case of figuring out which 4 bits are ignored. It also looks like there is a 128 byte header at the top of the file, image data would follow after that. It looks like byte 6 of the header is the width, and btye 4 is the height.
All of this is a wild guess.

Hi Graus,
I am writing a program for this (image format conversion) and i need some advice from u.... as this is a 12 bit greyscale image... can we say tht it is having only 1 layer of data (like tht of tiff images) if tht is the case... using this data how can we convert it into a 24 bit bitmap image (i hope we have to use tht 12 bit information and fill up the 24 bit for each pixel in BMP) if this is correct then how can we generate a 24 bit information from a 12 bit information (i hope we have to do some padding work over here, but how can we perform it).
sorry if i bother u askin these many questions...
thanks in advance,
Suman

Not at all, that's what I invite by writing articles.
Given that the image is greyscale, the red, green and blue components will be the same. Therefore I'd assume that each pixel is defined by all 12 bits, which gives them a range of 4096 values. I'd shift the values by 4, so that you use the 8 most significant bits to define your grey level, then you need to shove that value into each of the red, green and blue values for your 24 bit image.

Hi Graus,
thanks for ur inspiration and suggestion. Here is wht I am plannin to proceed...
1) I would read the file byte by byte using System.IO namespace.
2) As we know tht the width - value at (byte6)/2
and height - value at byte4 and the starting offset of the actual data is from byte 128. So, after reading the width and height , directly i would jump to 128 offset and starting reading the data.
3) Now the actual scene comes in to play... now the data is 12bpp means they used 2 bytes but they actually used 12 bits in it (am i right?), now the problem is, in which direction we have to consider... since they have given data_type: lsb_msb (means the data is written from lsb to msb [right to left]... so should we have to consider the last 12 bits and now here i didn't get how to shift the bits..and which 8 bits to use to define our new greylevel. if this is cleared then i can proceed with creating a bitmap image with correcsponding RGB channels.
please help me out if u can....and guide me if i am goin in wrong direction..
thanks in advance,
Pavan.

Here is the problem, I am writing a program to find the cornor pixels in an image and i am turnin those cornor pixels to red. I have written my method as below and i have tried it in different ways like using (int)pSrc[..], (byte)255 in if loops, but of no use. I am not able to turn the cornor pixels to red.(Basically for finding the cornor pixels i am checking with it neighborhood pixels whether they are white(255) or not in some fashion. Since the return type is BGR i have tried the reverse order of assignment too (0,0,255).
public static bool Cornors(Bitmap b)
{
Bitmap bSrc = (Bitmap)b.Clone();
BitmapData bmData = b.LockBits(new Rectangle(0, 0, b.Width, b.Height), ImageLockMode.ReadWrite, PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb);
BitmapData bmSrc = bSrc.LockBits(new Rectangle(0, 0, bSrc.Width, bSrc.Height), ImageLockMode.ReadWrite, PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb);
int stride = bmData.Stride;
int stride2 = stride * 2;
System.IntPtr Scan0 = bmData.Scan0;
System.IntPtr SrcScan0 = bmSrc.Scan0;
unsafe
{
byte * p = (byte *)(void *)Scan0;
byte * pSrc = (byte *)(void *)SrcScan0;
int nOffset = stride - b.Width*3;
int nWidth = b.Width - 2;
int nHeight = b.Height - 2;
for (int y=0;y < nHeight;++y)
{
for (int x=0; x < nWidth; ++x )
{
if (pSrc[3+stride]==255)
{
if ((pSrc[3]==(byte)255 && pSrc[0+stride]==(byte)255)||(pSrc[3]==(byte)255 && pSrc[6+stride]==(byte)255)||(pSrc[3+stride2]==(byte)255 && pSrc[6+stride]==(byte)255)||(pSrc[0+stride]==(byte)255 && pSrc[3+stride2]==(byte)255)||(pSrc[3+stride2]==(byte)255 && pSrc[6+stride]==(byte)255)
||(pSrc[3]==(byte)255 && pSrc[0+stride]==(byte)255 && pSrc[6+stride]==(byte)255)||(pSrc[0+stride]==(byte)255 && pSrc[3+stride2]==(byte)255 && pSrc[6+stride]==(byte)255)
||(pSrc[3]==(byte)255 && pSrc[0+stride]==(byte)255 && pSrc[3+stride2]==(byte)255)||(pSrc[3]==(byte)255 && pSrc[6+stride]==(byte)255 && pSrc[3+stride2]==(byte)255)
||(pSrc[3]==(byte)255 && pSrc[0+stride]==(byte)255 && pSrc[6+stride]==(byte)255 && pSrc[3+stride2]==(byte)255))
{
pSrc[3 + stride]= (byte) 255;
pSrc[4 + stride]= (byte) 0;
pSrc[5 + stride]= (byte) 0;
}
}
p += 3;
pSrc += 3;
}
p += nOffset;
pSrc += nOffset;
}
}
b.UnlockBits(bmData);
bSrc.UnlockBits(bmSrc);
return true;
}
If there is any mistake in my cod ecan u plz lemme know abt it.
thanks in advance,
Pavan.

If you're checking for a pixel value, you need to add 2, 1 and 0 to stride, to check all the same pixel.

Thanks Graus, I did get u what u r telling. My idea was based on the image type (I am using a grayscale bitmap image , which is only pure balck and white nomore intermediate graylevels). thts why wht i am thinkin is we can just find whether one of the 3 colors of a pixel is 255 [since white is (255,255,255)] if it is, then we consider its neighboirhood pixels in the form of a 3x3 matrix where our pixel is the center pixel [3+stride]. then i perform the matching operation in second loop, if anyone is true then i would like to change the 3 values of the center pixel to [255,0,0].
Important one is my initial image consists pixels of [0,0,0] and [255,255,255].(if we consider it as RGB)
My fina image ocnsists [0,0,0], [255,0,0](for image conrnor pixel), [255,255,255].
I hope now I am clear.
i think i am goin wrong somewhere between byte and integer conversions, but i am not able to figure it out.
thanks,
Pavan.

I have a tree control that can contain a LOT ( in the order of 100'000+ items ) of highly structured data ( in many trees and subtrees ).
I can select objects from another view,for example a list, in which I have only the name of the item ( or some unique ID ); so I have a list of selected item names.
is there a better way of selecting large quantity of objects in the tree than finding each individual item name ? that's kind of not optimal, O(n-square) (or something like that ) ...
Thanks.

Server.h
class TcpServer
{
...
private:
static map<SOCKET, TcpServer> m_instances;
...
};
When I build this, the compiler reports this:
error C2079: 'std::pair<_Ty1,_Ty2>::second' uses undefined class 'TcpServer'<br />
with<br />
[<br />
_Ty1=const SOCKET,<br />
_Ty2=TcpServer<br />
]
Any solution?

This is a circular definition - you are trying to use TcpServer inside of itself. You might be able to make the map take a pointer and get it to work:
private:
static map<SOCKET, TcpServer*> m_instances;

You just stumbled onto infinity, believe it or not.
When the C++ compiler finds a struct or a class it needs to know the size of it, so that it can allocate correct memory buffers to store the objects in. So when it finds a struct, it goes through each member variable, summing up the size of each member. That's the size the struct will get (not considering alignment issues, but that's not important in this case). Simple addition basically.
So consider this struct:
struct X {
X x;
}What is the size of objects of type X? It's the size of x. So, what's the size of x? Since it's of type X, it's the size of objects of type X. What is the size of objects of type X? ... and so on.
Do you see the infinite recursion here? X depends on itself, and thus its size is undefined, and is rejected by the compiler as an undefined type. A type in C++ is not complete (undefined as the compiler said) unless its size is known.
Navin suggested you could use pointers instead. How does that help you might wonder? The easy answer is that pointers on most platforms come in one size only (this is not entirely true, as old DOS programmers can testify, but don't worry about that for now). On a 32-bit compiler, pointers are typically 4 bytes large. 32 bits = 4 * 8 bits = 4 * 1 bytes. So, by using pointers instead, the compiler can determine the correct size.

I could use a pointer, but what I really don't understand is when a person I met on IRC tried to compile some example code in VC++ 7.1, and it didn't report any errors. I use VC++ 7.0.

when a compiler compiles != valid code
For your specific problem of looking up a socket object from an socket handle, I would stick with the pointer solution. You probably don't want to waste memory by storing a copy of the whole object in the container.

I'm working with threads and using GetExitCode. It supposedly returns STILL_ACTIVE but I couldnt find its value in any .h file in the VS folder. The only file it was mentioned in is winbase.h and there its a typedef statement, not a #define.

Hello,
Can someone tell me what the class name of a dialog box is?
The problem is I need to find a specific window and the only two things I know are:
- it is a dialog box (modeless);
- and its window title (static-never-changing string);
Also, if you think there is a better (more correct) way of doing this, please do let me know!
Thank you,
Dave

By sending a window a WM_GETTEXT message, you risk entering a deadlock state if that window is in a blocked state (i.e., its message pump is not processing messages). I'm not saying that will happen to you here, but it is something you need to consider.

You should try the excellent Spy++ tool which comes with visual studio. It's called spyxx.exe, and it lets you inspect any window. Just hit ALT+F3 when it's started, and a dialog with blue/white icon will show up. Just drag the icon onto any window it'll highlight the window you selected in the tree view. Double click the treeview item or right click it. You can even spy on window messages for any window which is really handy sometimes. Have fun exploring!
