1. -> [BC/OWL] Transfer buffer problem ?!! <-
Hello,
I have the following problem using Borland C++ 4.5 and OWL 2.x transfer mechanism.
My transfer buffer, called channelParamData contains 3 comboboxes and 1
check box and is of type:
struct channelParamXfer {
TComboBox* firstChannel ;
TComboBox* secondChannel ;
TCheckBox* setBoth ;
The problem is that I want to set that buffer to default values when
initializing (in the SetupWindow function).
So, I can do
channelParamData.setBoth = BF_CHECKED ;
what works correctly.
I have read that, since it is not possible to directly assign combobox
values to a transfer buffer, one should use the Transfer() function.
So, after inserting my strings into firstChannel, I use
firstChannel->Transfer( &channelParamData, tdGetData ) ;
This works, because it copies the data of firstChannel at the very begining
of the channelParamData buffer.
Then, of course, I initialize secondChannel with the strings I want it to
display, and also want to store these values.
A secondChannel->Transfer( &channelParamData, tdGetData ) ; won't work,
since here again it copies everything at the beginning of the buffer, and
NOT at the secondChannel position in the buffer.
I have tried to add the size returned by the first transfer (the size of
the information passed) to the address of channelParamData, but I always
get stuck with that, generating a GPF.
How does one initialize more than 1 combobox and pass the info to a
transfer buffer?
How does one initialize a combobox when it is not at the first position
in the buffer?
If I don't do this, the first time I open my dialog box, the info is ok.
If I press ESC or click the CANCEL button, that info is NOT copied to the
buffer, leading the dialog box not to display nothing in the comboboxes
the next time it is opened.
A click on OK copies correctly the information.
Thanks for any help.
Sincerely,
Steve Jordi
