Visual C++ :: Shaped Icons On CTabCtrl
May 20, 2013I 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;

Visual C++ :: Dynamic Icons On CMFC Ribbon StatusBar Pane
May 6, 2013The 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++ :: How To Control Toolbar Dynamically
Sep 21, 2013I want to control my toolbar dynamically.
First I added tool bar with style including TBSTYLE_EX_MIXEDBUTTONS | TBSTYLE_LIST.
Then added the tool bar to a rebar. I added tool tips by handling TTN_GETDISPINFO.
Everything works fine. But when I try to add text to right of the button, the text
gets added but button size is not automatically changing.
The following code is not working .
void SetToolbarText(HWND& hwndToolbar,LPTSTR szText)
{
ATLASSERT(::IsWindow(hwndToolbar));
TBBUTTONINFO tbbi = { 0 };
tbbi.cbSize = sizeof(TBBUTTONINFO);
tbbi.dwMask = TBIF_TEXT;// | TBIF_SIZE;//if I add TBIF_SIZE code will work!
tbbi.cchText = 0;
tbbi.cx = 200;

May 1, 2014Visual Studio 2013. C++.
Created a blank, SDI MFC app.
I added a new CMFCToolBar (by hand, didn't use a wizard)
It docks OK. The commands work OK. It renders OK. No problems there.
In the code, attempting to set the window text of this toolbar has no effect. The title bar text is always "Standard". I triple triple triple checked to make sure I don't have any resource ID conflicts. In a small app as this, it was pretty easy to verify this.
The toolbar also does not show in the menu illustrated in the screenshot. (The bottom, undocked toolbar should be titled "My Page Bar" and I think it should show up in the popup menu.)
I know I'm probably missing a simple step somewhere, but I haven't seen it. It looks like its getting mixed up with the Standard Toolbar resource ID somewhere but I could see nothing in the .rc or resource.h files.

Jan 27, 2013how to create, initialize, and maintain a memory device context that works as a local buffer for images? The idea is to maintain some large images in local DCs and bitmaps, and only bitblt them to screen in OnDraw().
What I did so far was was to define CDC and CBitmap objects as members of my View class, and then tried to initialize them with the sequence that begins at "// Initialize buffer". I placed that sequence in either OnInitialUpdate, or PreCreateWindow, or OnPrepareDC, or the view constructor, to no avail. The code always crashes in OnDraw, and I've noticed that the m_hDC member of myDevice is zero at that point.
Obviously, the initialization is wrong and MFC does (too many) things in the background which I'm not aware of.... My question was where can I read about that?
Code:
class CMyView : public CScrollView {
// ...
CDC myDevice;
CBitmap bmp;
CBitmap *oldbmp;

Visual C++ :: How To Create MDI Child With Borders
Jan 7, 2013How can I create MS Word 'print layout' like interface. The attached picture says it all. Basically I want a shaded area around my document just like word so it gives a feel of the 'page'.
I was hoping I can override some function somewhere and along that lines tried playing around with below but that didn't work.
Code:
BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs) {
if( !CFrameWndEx::PreCreateWindow(cs) )
return FALSE;
// TODO: Modify the Window class or styles here by modifying
// the CREATESTRUCT cs
cs.cx = 250; // just playing around with size
cs.cy = 250;
return TRUE;
}
How can I do that?

Dec 23, 2012How can I implement the paradigm demonstrated by the code below to run on WinXP?
I want to fork a process or create a thread that shares global variables with the parent process/thread.
The child process/thread monitors the progress of the parent process/thread.
I cannot find documentation for a fork function per se, a Unix term. It might be called something different for WinXP.
I would be happy to use threads instead. But I'm rusty even with Unix application threads; and I know nothing of WinXP application threads.
So any turnkey implementation that demonstrates the simplest use of process or thread functions for my purpose demonstrated below.
In either case, do "forked" processes and threads share global address space in WinXP, as they do in Unix?
I would prefer to avoid the overhead of IPC mechanisms. The "overhead" includes my own relearning curve.
The GUI screwed up my indentation. I would try to correct it. But the proper indentation appears when I edit the posting. I suppose I need to insert real tabs. Haven't figured out how (yet).
Not even real tabs work; and I cannot get the "paste as text" button to behave as I expect. What is the trick for posting indented text in this GUI?
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <Windows.h>
long curCount;
int isRunning;
int _tmain(int argc, char* argv[]) {
curCount = 0;
isRunning = 1;

Mar 5, 2014I am wokring on a project that has used an MFC DLL in conjunction with Outlook to send and archive mail. I need to be able to create folders for integration from an older mail system. I have looked online to see if there are examples in C++ (since I have to modify the existing C++ dll to include the funcitonality). I realize it is much simpler using VBA or C#, but I am limited with my choice. I essentially want to use the MFC type lib for Outlook 14 and use the CMAPIFolder,CFolders create folders in the Inbox.

Visual C++ :: How To Create Edit Box In CView
Dec 16, 2013I'm trying to create an edit box in a CView.So far, this is how far I've gotten:
With this code
Code:
// .h
CEdit m_MyEditField;
// .c
m_MyEditField.Create(WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE,CRect(40,40,500,Y+55),this,0x1552);
m_MyEditField.SetWindowText("this is my CEdit field");
As you can see, the edit box doesn't look like the ones in a dialog, which is what I'm trying to accomplish.
Is there possibly some other class I should be using for the edit box?Or another setting for .Create?

Visual C++ :: Debug Assertion On ActiveX Create
Oct 10, 2013I have a MFC Com Dll that has a CDialog. In the OnCreate event I create an ActiveX control. The dll is hosted inside an executable of mine. In this scenario everything works fine!
The dll is also called from an external executable and then a Debug Assertion in OCCSITE.cpp occurs when I create the ActiveX control. I suspect that in the executable there is no AfxOleInit. I spend some time with this problem and tried to CoInitialize, OleInitialize, AfxOleInitModule and even AfxOleInit in the dll. But all that does not change a thing. If I understand the mechanics then this is an intended behaviour and should be done in the host exe.
What I observed in the OCCSITE.cpp:
Code:
_AFX_THREAD_STATE* pState = AfxGetThreadState();
if (!pState->m_bNeedTerm && !AfxOleInit())
return hr;
In my executable m_bNeedTerm is 0 and in the external one (where the ActiveX does not work) it is -1. In AfxOleInit this is explained as a special flag to prevent the dll from doing an unnecessary OleInitialize. But as I said even if I call OleInitialize myself I get the Debug Assertion and the ActiveX is not visible.
Is there anything I can do to make the ActiveX control work in the external application? Obviously I cannot Change anything in the application...
