I'm not coding any more...

Marina

Wow, this thread pops up suddenly in my mail box.
Who's still there, still alive?

Marina

FALSE
// I don"t know what De-Morgan's Theorem is, or I forgot

Is european?

Thank you very much to all of you!!
I thought I had answered... but I must have been dreaming.
How are you all?
I send you kisses!
Marina

You can try to private message him. :)
Last time I heard from him he was looking for a new job in Ireland.
I hope he found something nice. :)

I also talked to Gabriel quite recently ... I...

Hi!

Well, I'm around.
I change job quite often and change platforms...
I visit here much often when I develop on Visual Studio ...

Otherwise I did make some comebacks on Where are we from?,...

Thank you John, and thank you all.

JohnCz , if I use BeginWaitCursor() this brings back to the first problem, which is that I 'm not calling the begin and the end from the same function.
...

Another challenge then ...
I changed my CDialog to be a CPropertyPage now... and guess : the cursor does not change any more using BeginWaitCursor().

Any idea why?? How could I do that?

Marina

My problem was solved :
When transforming my CDialog into a CPropertyPage, I forgot to change the page constructor.

Marina

I don't know... I'd say 2, but it can change every week.
How many good days do you have??

Did you get any solution now?? (ok that was 5 years ago)
I have the same first problem, but trying to use modeless Property Sheet.
One of my page causes this assertion failure... pTemplate is NULL....

Well, ok, I solved this by setting the cursor to the arrow during the OnInitDialog, before any of the treatment may be done, then using BeginWaitCursor is some treatment is necessary.

Then it...

Except I really need to know why it starts with an hourglass. Even when there is not treatment to do at the beginning, it starts with an hourglass. But then, since there is no reception of...

Thank you!!!

I was a bit mixed up for a while.
I think I'm ok now... until I find some other problem with it.
Explanation of my problem and solution.

When my dialog was initialising, some...

Except that now... i don't see any cursor when it's not an hourglass...
How do I set cursor manually to a normal cursor?

Marina

Thank you DP TWO, handling the WM_SETCURSOR seems to work.
I'll have to do it in both my dialogs since I'll need to be able to make an hourglass on both dialogs...


Thank you very much to the...

Thank you for spending so much time on this problem (hey, if it works you can write an article on this because it's missing!! ;)

I do not move it as much as I can, but for caliing the function I press a button, si I necessarily release the button, and maybe move it a bit...

Marina

Don't you think Alin is right when s/he says that if another class or thread or whatever takes control of the Cursor, it gets back to normal even before my EndWaitCursor() is called ??

Marina

Ok, I'll try this.
I allocate the CWaitCursor * pWaitCursor in my beginning function.

Then I make a SetCursor(WHAT?) ??

And then to stop it, a SetCursor(WHAT?), or a Delete(pWaitcursor) ??
...

What is right before this code??

What is '$S17'?

This error says you are declaring several things (class, struct, functions) without having a semicolon between them.

Marina

Well, yes, some other class do get the hand ... For example the communication class, that sends and receive the message, whereas I create my hourglass in the Dialog Class that request the messages...

I don't think it works...
I see the wait cursor very quickly, then nothing.
And my function that stops the CWaitcursor is never called. I don't receive the answer yet.
My guess is that the Wait...

As I told you, I read MSDN , and that does not help.
The examples given are always in the same scope.

Does it happen on a specific control, like a listcontrol??
You can check that in the properties you check the box : Want key input, or Want Return
I had trouble with that. Hopefully I needed to...
