Bitmap objects (with HBITMAP handles) are device-dependent in that its data can vary with the display device, such as the image's layout. Lately, the information in the bitmap object is highly...

If you need to use PeekMessage, place a WaitMessage prior to the PeekMessage call.

Well, copying bytes of memory is what the linked list is intended to avoid.

Syntactically speaking, those statements can exist.
Theoretically speaking, they can exist.
Practically speaking, it's questionable.

It is better, in this case, to save the resource to a temporary file (use SizeofResource to get the resource's size) and load it from there.

Generally, only functions that will not be placed in a header file should be declared static.

In fact, when creating reusable program modules, you should declare all variables in the module as...

A char is inherently a binary value, as are all variables.



printf("%c%c%c%c%c%c%c%c",
(ch&0x80)?"1":"0",
(ch&0x40)?"1":"0",
(ch&0x20)?"1":"0",
(ch&0x10)?"1":"0",

Is there anything else that you mean by 'status'?

Be aware that it's only a programming convention.

That's true. Perhaps the best solution is to dynamically link to shfolder.dll, or check the registry if the file doesn't exist.

Here's code that may be relevant:



}
BOOL GetShellFolderPath(char * pShellFolder, char * pShellPath) {
// pShellFolder can be one of the following
// AppData, Cache, Cookies, Desktop,...

The Win32 scheduler assigns each program a tiny slice (usually a few milliseconds) of processor time. Busier programs, of course, are expected to use more processor time. The schedular does this so...

The heap is a block of storage that a program can allocate and deallocate when needed.

The system stack is a storage location for variables and function calls. Information is pushed on the stack...

It should work with any window, including toolbars. The second parameter, which is a DWORD pointer, receives the window's process ID. The return value is the window's thread ID.

You should have...

Windows defines a directory for user application data, whose path you can look for in the registry. The Temp folder is intended for files that will be created, used, and then deleted afterwards.

I would assume that the WM_NCACTIVATE message is also being sent.

This is an EnumFiles function I created some time ago. It's a non-recursive function. If you look hard enough at the code, you can figure out the rest of the problem: how to add the files to the...

All intermediate file access mechanisms implemented in Win32, whether it be OpenFile, fopen, fstream, Win16 _lopen, etc., all ultimately call CreateFile. The following functions cover much of the...

char* represents a pointer to char, which is a data type that's usually one byte long. This pointer, unless it's allocated or explicitly set, points to memory that's undefined.

char contains...

Which process? Your process? Some other process? Keep in mind that it is extremely unlikely for an application to use up all of its 2GB memory space (which I assume you mean by "all of the process...

Mouse cursors aren't intended to blink. The system caret and the console cursor are, though. Call the SetCaretBlinkTime function to change the blink time of the system caret. Though there is no...

Windows "executable" files come in two formats: the New Executable (NE) format for 16-bit programs, and the Portable Executable (PE) format for 32-bit programs. Both formats are well-known and...
