Hi,
I am merging 5 bmp's and displaying them as a single bmp in the OnDraw(). The bmp does not get scrolled when i move the

scrollbar.Instead if i draw a rectangle it gets scrolled when i move the scrollbars, why does not the bmp get scrolled?

Thanks and regards,
Salil.

Dear All,

I am developing an application for Windows 2000 NTFS file systems using VC++ MFC version 6.0. I need to query whether "Norton antiviral" is installed on a system or not.

We know that Norton Antivirus runs as a service. So to find its existence I suppose, I should query whether the service for Norton exists of not in the system. So my query is that
"Is there any API provided to know existence of a service given its name. (In this case, navapscv is the name of the service, also we know its rest of parameters like display nameless)"

Or, is there any alternate way to accomplish the same task?

Please let me know if you need further clarification in this regards,

Regards,
Rohit

this function returns

not sure which one exactly

Hi All,
I have a structure of CString variabls.I need to pass this variable from one application to other application.I was trying WM_COPYDATA message to pass the data but i'm unable to receive the structure in the destination process.can someone help me out in this.

my code looks like this

typedef struct
{
CString name;
Cstring job;
} Raghu;

Raghu raghu;
raghu.name = "Raghu";
raghu.job = "none";

COPYDATASTRUCT datastruct;
datastruct.lpdata = (void*)&raghu;
datastrcut.cbdata=raghu.name .getlength() + raghu.job.getlength();//is this correct way??

::SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_COPYDATA, (WPARAM)this->GetSafeHwnd(), (LPARAM)&datastruct);

Thanks in advance

You can't pass pointers between process WM_COPYDTA
designated for transfer easy weight data (no more than LONG)

You can shared data among process use memory mapped files
or use __declspec(allocate) see MSDN or "Ritcher Programming for Windows"

You can't used class with WM_COPYDATA. Only like this.

typedef struct
{
char name[256];
char job[256];
} Raghu;

Raghu raghu;
strcpy(raghu.name, "Raghu");
strcpy(raghu.job, "none");

COPYDATASTRUCT datastruct;
datastruct.lpdata = (void*)&raghu;
datastrcut.cbdata=sizeof(raghu)?

::SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_COPYDATA, (WPARAM)this->GetSafeHwnd(), (LPARAM)&datastruct);

if you broadcast a message, all the apps are geting it and if they have a function mapped to this message, you get funny results.

you mustnt broadcast a message. send it to a particular window.

Hi I have a problem with windows API in VC++ 6.0 and I hope someone helps me.
Consider two dialog boxes which use the same WndProc, all I want to do is to know which dialog has called the WndProc at a time.
To create a dialog box I use the "CreateDialog" API and I think my answer has something to do with "GetDlgCtrlID" function. But this function always returns zero!! So I'm stuck and don't know what to do..

Really appreciate any help

overloading [] for a struct

I have a structure like this:

typedef struct tagInputFields
{
	UINT	nMask;
	CString field1;
	CString field2;
	CString field3;
	CString field4;
	CString field5;
	CString field6;
}

what I'm wondering is if it's possible to overload the [] operator to offset into the structure. If so I would appreciate an example of how I might do it as I'm lost. So for example if I put

// m_ifFields is a tagInputFields structure
m_ifFields[1] // it would return field1

Thanks.

This would be a really bad idea since it would be totally confusing to anyone reading your code!

Why don't you do it like this:

typedef struct tagInputfields
{
    UINT nMask ; 
    CString fields[5] ; 
} ;

CString val = m_ifFields.fields[1] ;

I dont know wheather [] operator can be overloaded in struture, but you can always use class and over load it, it wont make any change in the usage.

Hi Prakash, in C++, a struct is the same as a class except that all the members of a struct are public by default.

class AA
{
  // private by default.
public:
  AA() { }
};

struct BB
{
  // public by default.
  BB() { }
};

First you have to decide whether you want the result of operator[] to be an lvalue (meaning, you can assign to the result). Let's assume no for the time being. It's customary to have two versions, one for const this and one for non-const this to maintain the best const-correctness. It would go like:

CString tagInputFields::operator[](int idx)
{
  switch ( idx )
  {
    case 1: return field1; break;
    case 2: return field2; break;
    // and so on...
    default: /* some kind of error handling here */
      return _T("");  // fall back case, empty string
  }
}
 
const CString tagInputFields::operator[](int idx) const
{
  switch ( idx )
  {
    case 1: return field1; break;
    case 2: return field2; break;
    // and so on...
    default: /* some kind of error handling here */
      return _T("");  // fall back case, empty string
  }
}

Yes, the two are identical except for the function prototype. That is, again, pretty normal since you are returning the same thing in each case, it's the prototype that makes the data const or not.

Cryptography in VC++ 6

kempyeng25-Mar-04 16:39

25-Mar-04 16:39

Hi all,
I try to make simple program (from msdn sample) to encrypt data using Visual C++ 6, this is the program :

#include <wincrypt.h> // CryptoAPI definitions

#define MS_DEF_PROV "Microsoft Base Cryptographic Provider v1.0"
#define PROV_RSA_FULL 1

BOOL bResult;
HCRYPTPROC hProv;

// Attempt to acquire a handle to the default key container.
bResult = CryptAcquireContext(
&hProv, // Variable to hold returned handle.
NULL, // Use default key container.
MS_DEF_PROV, // Use default CSP.
PROV_RSA_FULL, // Type of provider to acquire.
0); // No special action.

// Release handle to container.
CryptReleaseContext(hProv);

but when I compile those codes, I get error messages like this :

error C2065: 'HCRYPTPROC' : undeclared identifier
error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'hProv'
error C2065: 'hProv' : undeclared identifier
error C2065: 'CryptAcquireContext' : undeclared identifier
error C2065: 'CryptReleaseContext' : undeclared identifier

I don't understand, these codes is very simple and I capture these codes from MSDN (so it must be success). Can anyone help me ?
Thanks

I know this sounds like a stupid question but you have included 'WinCrypt.h' haven't you?

I have not tried the code myself but normally this would be the first thing I would check.

You might also need to link against Advapi32.lib as well.

If I get chance then I will try and build the MSDN code and see why it does not work - but it looks like it's just the TYPSDEF's that it can't find - so try and include the header file and hopefully that should sort it out
