i created a windows service that will run another program. but the program i want to run has a gui and i don't want the gui to be visible, i just want the program to run in the background.
But i have to do it without editing the gui program
here's my code:
Code:
TCHAR* path = L"C:Myfile est.exe";
STARTUPINFO info = {0};
PROCESS_INFORMATION processInfo;
ZeroMemory( &info, sizeof(info) );
info.cb = sizeof(info);

i tested this code with notepad and it runs notepad in the background without displaying the window but when i try run my program it doesn't work. i don't know why its works for one program and not the other..
No I definitely used Visual Studio Command Prompt
c:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0VC
un_process_from_service>make.bat
Okay, I have a form and I have a tab control thing. On the second tab, I have a button which is supposed to turn the background green.
So, I have this:
#pragma endregion
private: System::Void greenButton_Click(System::Object^ sender, System::EventArgs^ e) {
this ->BackColor = System::Drawing::Color::Green;
But clearly that just turns the FORMS background green. How can I change the TAB background to green.
I am working on this project where I need to update an edit box every couple of seconds with a status and based on the status I need to change the color of the background to a particular color.I am able to update the edit box with the status but is clueless on how to update background color.I have read some info on line about this but is confused.This edit box is on a tab in a dialog. Also, on this tab is a Groupable List Ctrl.

I've tried using a printf statement to change the color, but it only changes the background color of the text being printed.
I was trying to change the text and background color to :red blue
Is there a way to do this? is there a certain function? ...
Here is my code:
#include <graphics.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main() {
int gdriver = DETECT, gmode, errorcode,i;
initgraph(&gdriver, &gmode, "c:cgi");
errorcode = graphresult();

Here is what I did,
Code:
oldHook = ::SetWindowsHookEx(WH_CALLWNDPROCRET, CallWndRetProc, NULL, ::GetCurrentThreadId());
MessageBox(...);
UnhookWindowsHookEx(oldHook);
Then within the callback function CallWndRetProc, I tried to change the background color of the dialog,
Code:
PAINTSTRUCT ps;
HDC hdc = BeginPaint(msg->hwnd, &ps);
::SetBkColor(hdc, RGB(255, 0, 0));
EndPaint(msg->hwnd, &ps);
But it doesn't change the background color of the dialog. I wonder what is the right way to do that?
ON_WM_CTLCOLOR(...) works for all the other controls but not the tab control.
Code:
void CEasyWebStoreUploaderDlg::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
CDialogEx::DoDataExchange(pDX);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_TAB_CTRL, m_tabCtrl);
DDX_Text(pDX, IDC_EDIT_STATUS, m_strServerStatus);
DDX_Text(pDX, IDC_EDIT_UPLOAD_RESULTS, m_strUploadResults);
}
I am saving my data in Excel File Format.
I am using CDataBase class and its methods like OpenEx ,ExecuteSQL etc. The program is working fine.
Now I need to change back-ground color of some data base records.
How to do this in MFC ?
I have a derived CComboBox class, where I tried to change text and background of edit from CComboBox, just like this:
Code:
HBRUSH CMyComboBox::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor) {
HBRUSH hbr = CComboBox::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);
// TODO: Change any attributes of the DC here
//if(CTLCOLOR_EDIT == nCtlColor || CTLCOLOR_MSGBOX == nCtlColor) {
[Code] ......
but is not working if CComboBox has CBS_DROPDOWNLIST style ... is working only for CBS_DROPDOWN style ... why ?
I used onctlcolor() method to set the background color for the controls & Dialog. I run my application, working good but after 15 mins the below error occured,
Application Error:

what is the reason for that? How can i prevent my project from this problem.
Trying to define some global colors so I can use the one instance though-out my application. Here is my color code:
<Color x:Key="GlobalTextColor">#E0E0E0</Color>
But this color doesn't display in the list when I start to type {StaticResource ...}
This is the code where I'm trying to reference the color, see Stroke="{StaticResource GlobalTextColor}". GlobalTextColor doesn't actually come up in the list so won't work.
<Style x:Key="InputButton" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="#FF141414" />
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Left" />

after you have compiled a program can you run it without an IDE?
View 17 Replies View RelatedAlright so I'm in a computer programming class and I was given the following problem..Write a problem that takes an integer value and multiplies each of the digits together. 4 digit numbers only.
IE; What number do you want to process? 2684
Starting number 2684
End result 384
I know how to start the begging of the program, but i dont understand how to have it to where you can type in all four digits and then it will multiply each number by the other. Also, what are some ways to change the color scheme of the program? I know how it works using CMD, but in Visual C++ its totally different aha.
I have a question, how can I check if a program is running using c++? For example
if (notepad.exe is running) {

I need to run a program that makes a SLR Parser Table.
Here is the code :
Code to find first and follow:
saved as SLR.h
#include<stdio.h>
#include<ctype.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<iostream.h>
#define epsilon '^'
since I didn't know how to type epsilon symbol temporarily I am using ^
char prod[20][20],T[20],NT[20],c[10][10],foll[10][10],fir[10][10];
int tt,tnt,tp,a;
int follow[20][20],first[20][20];

int y = 0;
while (y >= 15) {

Objective of the code: to loop through all tiles in the game, setting their X and Y coordinates.
It just doesn't do anything at all. No error message.

I'm working the 4th problem in chapter 14 of the Jumping into C++ book. In the book, he gives an example program for dynamically resizing an array while the program is running. It works fine for integer types but i need to do the same with a string type array. Right now my program is crashing because the string array is not resizing itself. Here's the part of the code im trying to figure out. The part for the int array has been ignored using // since it works fine and I'm trying to figure out whats wrong with the string array.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
//Write a program that lets users keep track of the last time they talked to each of their friends.
//Users should be able to add new friends (as many as they want!) and store the number of days ago

So i compile fine, but when i run my program, after the printf it just segfaults (core dumped)...
Code:
#include<stdio.h>#include<string.h>

char num[100] , str1[100], str2[max];
FILE *fp;

The assignment is to write a program that statistically computes similarity of C syntax with another program; a same and a different. The one used here is in C language, it's called Battleship.cpp. The program must open a file and read line by line for keywords and then produce statistics. The reason my code is not running is the fopen function is failing and it goes to return -1. I am using MS Visual Studio 2013 and there are no compiler errors after turning off deprecation. I do see, however, this error UMEngx86.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file. The file being opened is in my source folder.
