Editor in VC++

Hi everybody. This is a Text Editor made by me. It's not made in MFC.

Any Suggestions regarding this Text Editor? This will not be the Final Release of this Editor Series:)

I would next implement loading.
Then a proper file selection mechanism (common dialogs, it's easy)
Then maybe a menu.

How to load a Common Dialog?

Also made without MFC (the MFC version took about 1/10 of the time, and has more features).
This program lets you search a word by number in a file. You supply the number (Bearbeiten->Set Highlight) and it will mark this word in the text.

I accidently posted a only half translated version.
Datei -> File
Bearbeiten -> Edit
Window -> Fenster

Can you tell me how to load a Common Dialog in VC++ Win32 Programming, please?

the header is commdlg.h

You have to declare an OPENFILENAME structure and fill it's members (see MSDN)

And you call GetOpenFileName or GetSaveFileName

Then get the information you want from the now modified ofn

then proceed as usual

this is what I used in my app
not very elgant but effective

Code:

---

HeapFree(GetProcessHeap, 0, *ppszContent);

---

GetProcessHeap() :)

How to create a Menu?

MSDN, and search for CreateMenu.

Sorry about this, I really got messed up... Would anyone place a code that only does the Common Dialogs part? Thanks

Here is a fregment from one of my apps.

PHP Code:

---

            OPENFILENAME    ofn;
            long retval;
            TCHAR *szFullPathName;
            szFullPathName = new TCHAR[512];
            lstrcpy(szFullPathName,"");
            memset(&ofn,0,sizeof(OPENFILENAME));
            ofn.lStructSize = sizeof(OPENFILENAME);
            ofn.hwndOwner = hDlg;
            ofn.nFilterIndex = 1;
            ofn.lpstrFile = szFullPathName;
            ofn.nMaxFile = 512;
            ofn.lpstrInitialDir  = "c:\\";
ofn.lpstrFilter = "Text Files(*.txt)\0*.txt\0All Files(*.*)\0*.*\0";

            ofn.lpstrDefExt = "txt";
            retval = GetSaveFileName(&ofn);
            if(retval!=0)
            {
                                                  //do something
                                                }

Looks like they got messed up by the parser.

ofn.lpstrInitialDir = "c:\\";
ofn.lpstrFilter = "Text Files(*.txt)\0*.txt\0All Files(*.*)\0*.*\0";

Code:

---

ofn.lpstrInitialDir  = "c:\\";
ofn.lpstrFilter = "Text Files(*.txt)\0*.txt\0All Files(*.*)\0*.*\0";

You are wrong Furby:D Everybody should leave MS, Corel or any other best know text editors, and use this one
:D;) :p :rolleyes:

That is the most *****ed up text editor I have EVER seen

Come on guys. I'm waiting for my damn Flight(#NW070) from Northwest Airlines... Orgin: Shanghai, Destination: Little Rock. Connect in Detroit. So I can't mess around with you guys much. Damn. Can't believe they destroyed the great World Trade Center!!! And the Pentagon!@!!@$#

Are you alone on the flight(without your parents)?:D

That's right:) All alone. Without my parents:) But due to the incident in the US. All planes to the US will be cancelled. Well they say it's going to be open on the 15th...
So I'm damn tired here in Shanghai.

You are only 12...right?

You are kind of right:) Try this code:

VB Code:

Dim i as Long
Dim myname as String
Dim yours as String
Dim yourage as Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
i=13
myname="Tom Zhang"
yours="Abdul"
yourage="234078324"
MsgBox "Hi, I'm " & myname & " and you are " & yours & " you are " & yourage & " years old.  and I'm " & i & " age old."
End Sub

Ha ha:)
Damn NWA!
