I have a legacy C++, MFC application, currently compiling in VS2005. It has several socket connections, as well as a user GUI.

I have a custom CWnd-derived MFC control, which works like this: the control has its own OnPaint, and a black background clicking anywhere on the control causes an edit control to appear at that location, borderless and with black-background, so it blends in the user types in this box and hits enter, the box disappears and the control'...
Hello! I'm currently working on a MFC program that specifically has to work with UTF-8. At some point, I have to write UTF-8 data into a file; to do that, I'm using CFiles and CStrings. When I get to write utf-8 (russian characters, to be more precise) data into a file, the output looks like Ðàñïå÷àòàíî: Ñèñòåìà Ïðîèçâîäñòâî and et...

I have a dropdown-list style CComboBox on a form. The nice thing about this style is it allows for type ahead--that is, you can type a character and it will jump to the first item in the list matching that character. However, there are certain items which need to be excluded from this behavior. How might this be accomplished? ...
We have a C++/MFC application which allows users to customize date formatting via configuration files. Not wanting to reinvent the wheel, I pass the format string to CTime::Format("< format string >") to do the actual formatting. Under the covers, Format calls a variant of the standard C function strftime(). Naturally, the user can ac...
Hi, How do I disable all the controls in a dialog window ? I know I could use EnableWindow(FALSE); but this doesnt seem like a good idea because now there is no way for the user to click "Ok" or "Cancel" button or press the "X" icon to exit.

Because the WS_LAYERE...
I have an MFC application. It is basically just copying files from one drive to another. When I'm copying large files (more than 1 Gb) and I click on my window, my application freezes, but the copying proceeds in the background. Someone told me that I have to use a worker thread. I used it, but it still freezes. When I'm copying small fi...

Is there an easier way to do it than this, and if this is the only way, are there any potential memory leaks here?

Hello. I'm in the process of migrating some of our old code into Java and have become stumped on connecting to (what I believe are) MFC ASP ports. In the old code this was done via CInternetSession, but I'm uncertain of what the Java equivalent would be. As an example, the old code had the following: CInternetSession sess; pHttpConn...
