Messenger

I look to section samples, and find what this section very small. So I decide make big sample with code from codeguru.


In this sample you can find:

How solve “long operation problem”? Simples example you find in file AppIdle.cpp

You use Recordset? Is little bit tough, so look to file MailMessage.cpp [LoadDAO, SaverDAO].

How make splitters in splitter? Look to MainFrm.cpp [OnCreateClient].

Need build version? Look to Messenger.cpp [CAbout::OnInitDialog]

Use registry, how demands WinLogo? Look to Messenger.cpp [CMessengerApp::InitInstance]

Template window, it is possible? Look to PropDlg.cpp

Automatically link with library. Look to file WNetEnum.

How to use the program

You need a network to have some use of it.

In menu “View” you can see custom checkbox.

In menu “Tools\Refresh Network Tree” item enabled only if focus is in the
left panel. After pressing that item you fill network tree control [of cause
if you computer switched to network].

In network tree control you can select computer and send message [write
message in the toolbar].

In list control press right mouse button and from popup menu delete list
items.

In “Tools\Properties Dialog” you can change Access DB file place in the
disk [In tree: Properties\Program properties\Enter DB file name.
