Visual C++ :: MFC Proper Usage Of Sending Message To Dialog To Activate
Jan 7, 2015I have finally got around to developing C++ & MFC using Visual Studio 2012, to build a full GUI Windows application (not sure if I have made the right choice). Though admittedly in two months time I do have a dialog window at my beck and call.
Now I have discovered a flaw (suspect) partially caused by the design of this program not all following the same principles, nor written by the same people and long predates me. Let describe the situation.
I have a dialog I have created as a class which has a combo box. The list of items are populate during the OnInitDialog() function just fine, except if the file where the detail is not yet read from that combo box would not have any items other than the default. This is to be expected in the use of the program, so fine.
However, if the dialog (modeless) was already open and active, when the user went up to and selected the menu command (main window) to read that file that CPtrList data structure that held that data would not populate that Combo box on my dialog.
So what I would like when I am done reading the files contents is to detect if my dialog is opened and if so send it a message to Activate (force a call to OnActivate()). I have gone to the event list for the dialog and exposed this event handler from the resource editor just fine.
I see the syntax of OnActivate() is
void MyClass::OnActivate(UINT nState, CWnd* pWndOther, BOOL bMinimalized);
So nState is an Unsigned Int of the current state of the thread/window (not sure)?
CWnd* pWndOther is the CWnd of my other Window that wants my dialog to activate I think which is the main application since it was on the a menu that this function was called to read the file.
bMinimalized is whether my dialog is mimalized(?)
Visual C++ :: Unable To Display Dialog In UI Thread
Mar 11, 2015I am having a strange problem trying to display a dialog from a UI thread. The dialog simply fails to display. I have a function DisplayFlashBox(), which creates the UI thread:
CUIThread* CIMUIHelper:: DisplayFlashBox(const CString &sMessage, const int nInstrumentUID) {
CUIThread *pThread = new CUIThread();
pThread->SetString(sMessage);
pThread->SetInstrumentUID(nInstrumentUID);
pThread->CreateThread();
[Code] .....
The dialog doesn't display. When I tried debugging, I found the OnInitDialog() method of CIMFlashBox class doesn't actually return. Very strange. I tried calling the DoModal() method instead of Create, but doesn't display the dialog either.
Visual C++ :: Button To Display Text Box Message?

Visual C++ :: Display Data Immediately - Dialog Domodal?
Mar 24, 2014I haven't seen it anywhere and I've been looking. Is it possible to display data, say in a CEdit field in a dialog as soon as the dialog starts? Either before or after DoModal is fine.. These are essentially the same.
Using Visual Studio 2013 - trial version. It's nice. Coming from VC6. Many things are familiar (so far), at least in the C++ part.
Visual C++ :: CString - Display Some Data In Text Format On A Dialog
Aug 7, 2014I am trying to display some data in text format on a dialog and I am using a CString to do it. Below is how I coded it.
Code:
CString outputStr;
CString auxStr;
// Add header
outputStr.Format("");
auxStr.Format("%-7s%-20s%-7s%-20s%s
[Code] .....
But the output rows are not aligned as shown in the attached picture. There a two problems.
1. Data rows don't align with the header row.
2. When the first element of a row changes to two digits, the other elements are shifted.
According to MSDN [URL] ...., CString::Format() works the same way as printf(). I wrote a small program using printf() to do the same thing, and the output in the console are perfectly aligned.
What have I missed when doing the display in GUI?
Visual C++ :: Sending Email With Attachment From 2005?
Oct 4, 2013I am currently working on a MFC application and need to send (non-document) files created by the program over email. (either with SMTP client on the machine or web mail)
I have searched the web and some forum and cannot find a code that work. They either have errors, or not Unicode compliant, even when converted they still don't work.
Everything code example seems to use MAPI, but like I said non of them worked.
see here
[URL]
A simpler approach would be to modify or override the event handler OnFileSendMail() that is built into MFC document view framework and use the menu id ID_FILE_SENDMAIL.
To get this feature all you have to do is give any menu item the resource id ID_FILE_SENDMAIL and MFC will call the installed mail client for you. The problem is MFC will attach any open document that is in focus when you select the menu item. The file that I wish to send is not associated with the document so I was wondering if there is a way to find the OnFileSendMail() handler and modify it to send my file instead. I am not too keen on how MFC route command handler such as ID_FILE_NEW, ID_FILE_SENDMAIL etc. These methods/functions are hidden from view or I don't know where to find them.

Visual C++ :: Forcing App Icon To Be Always Shown On Tray In Windows 7 / 8
Sep 24, 2012Where in registry the Explorer stores tray icons visibility settings? (Always show, show only notifications, or always hide.)
I know that Microsoft doesn't want us to change these from a program, which may be OK for a home computer, but it becomes a major pain in the ___ for an enterprise environment (as there seems to be no GPO to do this either.) I've seen couple commercial products that were able to do this, so I'm sure there's a "hack" somewhere...

Apr 20, 2014I'm writing the program below to take an integer input for temperature and display a cheesy message for different ranges for each day of the week.
I tried using two if statements, the first to determine if the input is valid, and the else display that it was invalid and to try again.
The second set of if (if else) statements would evaluate a number input and display the cheesy message based on the value, or if it was out of range, to make you re input that days temperature.
I understand that the else statement is linked to the closest if statement, unless brackets are added to prevent this. I thought my brackets were correct, but I keep getting [Error]'else' without previous if'. The red lines are the if and else statement I'd like to be linked, and tried to do so by enclosing the 2nd if statement in brackets.
The assignment doesn't require the error checking, but if I don't use some form of it I believe it will just loop. Again I have to use the last 4 lines due to instructors rules, and have to use scanf and not strings or arrays.
This program will ask the user what the temperature will be for each day of the week. The integer input from the keyboard will be tested in a series of IF tests and a message will be printed depending on the temperature.

Visual C++ :: How To Set The Parent Dialog
Apr 17, 2013I've created a modeless dialog from my main dialog as follows:
Code:
m_pContainerDlg = new CDlgContainer(NULL, this);
m_pContainerDlg->Create(CDlgContainer::IDD, GetDesktopWindow());
m_pContainerDlg ->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
This container dialog creates a child dialog which I show inside the container
Code:
BOOL CDlgContainer::OnInitDialog(){
// Create the child dialog and show it
m_pChildDlg = new CChildDlg(this);
m_pChildDlg->Create(IDD_DIRECTORY_DIALOG, this);
return FALSE;
}
From my child dialog I then create a modal dialog when a user clicks on a button
Code:
CChildDlg:: CChildDlg (CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/) :
m_pParent((CDlgContainer*)pParent), {
} void CChildDlg::OnBnClickedBtn() {
CMyDlg MyDlg;
INT_PTR iResult = MyDlg.DoModal(pParent);
}
My problem is that the CMyDlg is modal but to the main dialog and not to the container or the child dialog.
Visual C++ :: Catching A Dialog Box?
Dec 9, 2013What I want is simple: I want to catch a dialog box!
The dialog box pops very frequently in a website. We have to put a username and password and press OK. I checked with spy++. It doesn't have any child windows. So catching the dialog box with windows API is ruled out. It must be a HTML dialog. I have to get DOM COM interfaces of the dialog.
Another option may be to make an add-on to get the interface to IWebBrowser2 and get the events fired. The title of the dialog box is "Authentication Required". If the events will be fired for that dialog box, I can check the title using IHTMLDocument2::get_Title.But will the events be fired for HTML dialog box? How to catch that desturbing dialog box.

Nov 13, 2012For a project I'm working on, I need to be able to download a file from an FTP server and store it to a predetermined location with a predetermined name. No user interaction should be needed. Because the file is rather large, and I need the main program to remain responsive, this is going to need a progress dialog.
I could write all this myself and use the MFC wininet wrappers (CInternetSession et al) to do the downloading, but... Explorer already has this, and IE has such a dialog also. It doesn't seem unreasonable to assume those dialogs are available via some API.
Is a "FTP download with dialog" available as a windows API, or do I really need to write all this myself ?

23 54 87 89 98 88
34 55 76 88 8 88
45 32 45 28 98 88
I want to write a code to have them from bottom to top in a new .txt file and with other modifications like so..
Code:

{34, 55, 76, 88, 8, 88},
{23, 54, 87, 89, 98, 88},
{12, 13, 22, 22, 43, 45},
Is there a start of file flag (sof) like eof ??? Because they are going to be passed into a 2 dimensional array and the data is a whole lot to be entering them by hand...
Visual C++ :: How To Get Rid Of Not Responding Message
Jul 30, 2014I have a simple dialog based app that performs some time consuming file manipulations. The activating method contains the customary
Code:
CWaitCursor wait;
The hour glass initially appears, than after a few seconds, the dialog title bar indicates 'not responding'.
This is misleading to users as it suggests the application has ceased to function when, in fact, it's working just fine. I would like very much to eliminate this 'not responding' message but havn't a clue how to do it. Have any of you dealt with this problem, if so, how?
