A long time ago, I searched codeguru.com to get some help on serial data transmission; I got some valuable information from this site. Since then, […]

WinInet is a high-level interface to the more complicated underlying Internet protocols (including HTTP, FTP, and Gopher). WinInet allows your application to act as an HTTP, FTP, or Gopher client without its having to understand or, more importantly, keep up with the ever-evolving protocol standards. If you use WinInet in your applications, when standards change […]

Download The CDialogPalette class permit easy edition of 256 colors ramps. We can also save and load predefined ramps. The ramp editing is made using nodes, ramps are recalculated between every defined nodes. by example : for a single grey scale ramp, only the first and the last nodes are necessary (black and white), the […]

Environment: VC6, MFC, Win95/98/NT/2000/XP This software will record music from various sources, including “ripping” an audio CD. This is a freeware software. It is used to record audio CD music, cassette tape music, and other external sources. However, the output format is the pure WAVE format that is the Windows standard. It has basically no […]

Environment: Developed with VC6 SP2; Tested under Windows 2000 Extended format a time string with milliseconds. The output string for a time could be 23:59:59.999. Prototypes size_t strfstime(char *strDest, size_t maxsize, const char *format, const SYSTEMTIME *stimeptr); size_t wcsfstime(wchar_t *strDest, size_t maxsize, const wchar_t *format, const SYSTEMTIME *timeptr); For additional compatibility information, see VC++ documentation […]

This template class is for manipulation bits of undefined type. It’s usually for unsigned type but you can use it with signed type. Most of the methods are inline for speed. The method “print”, in case of decimal value, formats only unsigned value. With signed type, the signe is lost (formally not lost but it […]

Environment: Straight C++ Overview A challenge I’ve seen pop up often while writing search tools is the ability to verify that your code is not traversing the same source multiple times. A spider traversing the web, for example, would never wish to traverse the same URL twice in a session – to do so would […]
