Hi all,
I am working on 16 bit app on windows. My problem is I am using
windows RECT structure. on 16 bit windows it 's all member are declared
as short which allows max 32767 max value. and i require more valus to
be stored for the Rect.
So i created my own rect structure with long members. but when i do
this call windows API GetWindowRect() fails. it does fill the rect
structure with appropriate values. can any one help.
Thanks in advance.

You can not change the nature of a function that you don't control.
You can call that function with the argument type(s) it expects.
You can then copy the data to whatever structure you want.

Hm, do you really have a resolution which can't be expressed with
16-bit values? What kind of super screen do you have?

Hi TB,
I am not using any super screen. I am simply writing in a window and
need to set the max value of ScrollBar by unsing windows API
SetScrollRange( ). for that i am calculating the size of window. which
is more than the short value on 16 bit windows.

you can get better answers in microsoft.publi c.vc.mfc.
Any way Scroll bar's max range is 32767.

You have a "size of window" greater than 32767? Or the total window size?
Regardless, as someone stated the max value for a scroll bar is 32767
anyway. You can't fit 5 pounds of... stuff in a 10 pound bag.

At least to me, that sounds like it's not only possible, but pretty
easy to handle.

Depends if:
(1) Gravity is the same inside the bag as outside (because the pound is
a unit of force rather than mass).
(2) Pressure is the same inside the bag as outside (because pressure
can reduce volume).
Plenty more things to consider...

Obviously you inverted the sense of operator< for class

Hi,
I am trying to define an arp structure but having problem
doing so. I think I have define the correct arp structure but
I find myself in a strange problem. The size of structure that
I have defined is 28 bytes, but it is reported to be 32 bytes by
the sizeof() call.
Interestingly, sum of individuals members of the sturcture is 28.
However, the sizeof() the entire structure is returned to be 32.

Hi, when I draw a long text inside a rect, it will go outside, I want to
know which charactor is the last one which is inside the rect. I know I can
do like below, but it's not efficient, is there any better way to do this,
thanks.
CString str = "a long text"; // if it's too long, I want to draw "a long
t...";
CRect rc(0,0,100,100);
char c;

I have a question regarding the RECT structure required for PInvoke calls.
I was reviewing the Rectangle structure (System.Drawing.Rectangle) and it
occurred to me that I may be able to use this structure in place of defining
a RECT structure. I would create the RECT structure definition the same as
the Rectangle structure is defined. Is there any problems with using
Rectangle in place of RECT for the API functions?
Thanks,
Mythran

I override the OnShown event of a form and call both methods Select()
and Focus() of a RadioButton.
The RadioButton is selected, but the focus rect is not visible.
If I press Tab key to exit the RadioButton, and press Shift+Tab to back
to the control, then the focus rect is visible...
But I wanna make the focus rect visible as soon as the form is shown.
How can I ensure this?
Thanks.

I have an image with a class and the class defines a clip rectangle.
In Firefox 2 and 3, and Opera 9, I can access the rectangle with
document.defaultView.getComputedStyle().
But that doesn't seem to work in Safari for Windows 3, nor when I use
image.currentStyle.clip in IE 7.
Is there a way to do this in those browsers? Am I doing something stupid?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
