Visual C++ :: Shaped Icons On CTabCtrl

May 20, 2013

I have a dialog window with a CTabCtrl. The following code is successful in showing an icon along with the text name on each of 16 tabs. The icons are 16x16 pixel squares, 4-bit, that I made with Visual Studio 2008's resource editor.

The icons to have transparent pixels (the first pixel of the color map), so that I can "shape" them to be circles, etc., instead of squares.

However, the transparency works ONLY IF I use ILC_COLOR8 instead of ILC_COLOR4, and use LR_LOADMAP3DCOLORS. (Neither of these are documented as being related.) If I don't have LR_LOADMAP3DCOLORS, or if I use ILC_COLOR4, the "transparent" parts of the icon are colored white instead.

My code now works....

// Configure the Tab control.
CTabCtrl* ptab = (CTabCtrl*) GetDlgItem( IDC_TAB1 );
static CImageList* pil = NULL;
if ( ! pil ) {
pil = new CImageList;

[Code] .....

Visual C++ :: Dynamic Icons On CMFC Ribbon StatusBar Pane

May 6, 2013

The goal is to change the status bar (CMFCRibbonStatusBar) icons based on some events. (The old CMFCStatusBar class had the SetPaneIcon() member that easily solves the problem.)

The "improved" CMFCRibbonStatusBarPane has no members to set the icon, other then the constructor. Being a subclass of CMFCRibbonButton, it has SetImageIndex() that sets the icon index in the image list. The MS online support does not mention how and where to set that "list of images". My understanding is that the list belongs to the Button's parent; in this case it is the CMFCRibbonStatusBar, which has no methods to set any image list. How and where am I supposed to set that list of images for the status bar?

Second related question: I have tried to set the pane icon with the CMFCRibbonStatusBarPane() constructor by loading it from an icon resource. The icon appears shortly and then it is replaced by a gray patch. (for tests I also used one of the icons given by the MFC wizard, with the same result)

The code is:

int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct) {
..........
if (!m_wndStatusBar.Create(this)) {
TRACE0("Failed to create status bar
");

[Code] ....

This code was placed within a program created by the MFC wizard that does nothing else. I absolutely do not "touch" the status bar after it is created here in CMainFrame::OnCreate().

Apparently the icon is "erased" after OnCreate() exits. Where, how? I have made HICON icon; a member of my CMainFrame class, with the same result.

Visual C++ :: Cannot Seem To Set Var

Nov 8, 2012

What I'm trying to do is get the selected folder value put into my dirlocation var.

Code:

}

Is this how you do it? I keep getting an error like Cannot implicitly convert type 'type' to 'type.

Visual C++ :: Using COM Without Registering?

Mar 5, 2013

In a C++ project, I need to call a C# created COM object (as a .dll)

Is there a way to use such a COM object without having it be registered in the registry?

The C# COM dll is just a "go between" our C++ code and a .NET library, there's no "COM contract" of any kind, the COM interfaces change each version. The fact it's COM and needs registration is annoying because it makes it hard to have multiple versions of our software installed (needed under some circumstances) and running at the same time.

I'd like a way to not have any registration at all. And just be able to do a LoadLibrary("c:TheRightPathcom.dll") of the right dll and then get going from there.

Visual C++ :: OpenCV In MFC App?

Feb 5, 2014

I have a C++ app that uses OpenCV. Currently i am statically linking the OpenCV libs into my app. This is adding an extra overhead of 6+ MB.

i would like to remove some of the features that i am not using in OpenCV. The features am using are,

Capture frames from Webcam.

Face detection.

Image formats (JPEG, PNG).

Image rotation & resizing.

Is it possible to remove other features and trim down the libs?

My C++ app is developed in Visual Studio 2012.

Visual C++ :: Map With Two Key Values?

Mar 29, 2013

I have an assignment where I need to go through all the files in a folder. For each file I need to know each unique file extension, how many files for each unique file extension, and the total size for each unique file extension. I have to be able to sort through this using either the file extension or the total size of the file extension. The first thing I thought of using was a map. This will keep track of each unique file extension and the amount of times that file extension was found. How do I now associate the total size of the file extension to my map? So for example I need the output to be something like this:

Using file extension for sort
.cpp : 1 : 3400
.exe : 3 : 3455600
.mp4 : 25 : 200000404

Using total file extension size for sort
.mp4 : 25 : 200000404
.exe : 3 : 3455600
.cpp : 1 : 3400

Here is the code I have so far:

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <filesystem>
#include <map>

[Code]...

I was thinking of somehow using a class to implement this, but don't know how to go about doing that. A

Visual C++ :: What To Do With OnNewDocument

Nov 29, 2012

I got a program from somebody. He had its initialization to run his program but never bothered to save the data for later use. Now I wanted to add the New, Open, Save, and Close to it, so I add OnNewDocument ahead of his program. It crashed every time I ran it.

Shall I include his initialization in the OnNewDocument? If I can not separate the initialization part from his code, e.g., they come in as dll, what shall do?

Visual C++ :: How To Use C# With Excel

Jan 2, 2013

Is it possible to create an app that can be saved on my desktop that can be used with an excel file that is saved on my desktop? I have opened VS 2010 and I have created a form design that has a button for every sheet name in my excel file. All of the sheet names are hidden with the exception of one. When a button is pressed on the c# form, I would like for that sheet to be shown in excel. Then once the updates have been made to that sheet in excel, I want a button to be at the top of the excel worksheet that will hide that worksheet again and return to the form c# form...can that be done?

Code:
#if ( defined(__x86_64__) || defined(__i386__) )

neither of those seems to be defined by my ageing compiler (VC++ 8.0). What would be the equivalent for building with VC8 ?

Visual C++ :: Lib Using OLE DB Template

Mar 19, 2013

My question contains two projects that are under the same solution.

Project_1: I have created a dll where I use inside the project, OLE Db Template. In the project, I use this code.

class MyClass {
public:
LONG _value1;
SHORT_value2;
BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP(Accessor)

[Code] .....

Project_2: Is a project testing the Project_1.

- I want to call one of the exported functions.
- In Linker/Addional Dependencies, I have added the .lib
- In Linker/Additional Libray Directories, I have added the directory where is the lib.
- In C/C++/General/Additional Include Directories, I have added the directory on project 1. I did that because I want to #include a header in Project_1. But, when I do that, I get:

Error1error C3646: 'COLUMN_ENTRY' : unknown override specifier
Error2error C2059: syntax error : 'constant'
Error3error C3646: 'COLUMN_ENTRY' : unknown override specifier

I have done it several time with other projects, but the first time with OLE DB Template. atl90.dll is registered.

I wrote a routine in one C++ file and I decided to break it up into some smaller more manageable C++ files. When I copied the variables out of the first one and into the new smaller file (same solution), everything compiles fine but I get a ton of linker errors saying the variables have already been defined in another (the previous) file. Using Visual Studio 2008.

Visual C++ :: Getting Rid Of (Save Changes To Untitled)?

Oct 10, 2013

I have tried everything I can think of to get rid of the 'Save changes to Untitled?' message box that appears every time my SDI split app tries to load a new file. The problem is that the message appears inappropriately, both when no previous document has been loaded or should exist, and even after File / New has been envoked. I have attached a small demo program to demo the problem. Inspecting the SpVwTrDoc.cpp NewDocument and OnOpenDocument, and elsewhere, you will see that using SetModifiedFlag(FALSE); has no effect.

Visual C++ :: How To Use Watch When Using Singleton

Aug 24, 2014

I have code like this:

Code:
if (S::I().File.isDirectory(arg, S::I().Stat.workingPath)) {
// find out if there is -r option after 1st argument to join files
src_temp.join = true;
S::I().Stat.getRegEx = true;
}

The S is singleton class and I() returns instance of Singleton; there is a Stat object too. When I debug (line by line) I would like to see what values are in the Stat object. Is it possible to do it using Watch panel in Visual Studio 2010?

Visual C++ :: Switch From TXT To RTF During Runtime

May 2, 2015

While running a Doc/View SDI, is there any way to switch from text mode to rtf mode during runtime? Search reveals nothing.

Say I have an editor and I want the app to use text, I can set the ctor as follows.

Code:

CEditorDoc::CEditorDoc() {
// TODO: add one-time construction code here
m_bRTF = FALSE;
}

But once I've done that and compiled the app, while it's running, is there a way for the user (or programmer) to change the mode back to RTF? One solution that occurred to me is to use 2 document classes, but that's a hassle.
