When Visual Studio (2005) has *Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Tabs -> Indenting* set to Smart it will automatically indent code blocks and line up squiggly brackets, {}, as expected. However, if you hit enter inside a code block, move the cursor to another line, and then move it back, the inserted tabs are gone and the cursor is positioned all the way to the left. Is there a way to set Visual Studio to keep these tabs? | 0 |

In this situation, if I call InvalidateDisplayList() on the grid nothing seems to happen. But if I call invalidateList(), the updates happen. (And it's very smooth too -- no flicker like I would expect from invalidating a window in WIN32.)
So the question: what is the difference between InvalidateList and InvalidateDisplayList? From the documentation it seems like either one should work.

A feature they requested was a photo section where all the guests could go after the wedding and upload their snaps. I said this was a stellar idea and I went off to build it.
Well there's just the one problem: logistics. Upload speeds are slow and photos from modern cameras are huge (2-5+Megs).
I will only need ~800px wide images and some of them might require rotating so ideally I'm looking about using a client-side editor to do three things:
1. Let users pick multiple files
2. Let them rotate some images so they're the right way up
3. Resize them and then upload
And in my dream world, it'd be free and open source. Any ideas?
Just a reminder: this is something the guests have to use. Some of them will be pretty computer savvy but others will be almost completely illiterate. Installing desktop apps isn't really an option.

Part of this system includes a 'Material Library' which acts as a repository, divided into groups, of saved materials on the user's hard drive.
As part of some UI polish, I was hoping to implement a 'highlight' type feature. When dragging and dropping, windows that you can legally drop a material onto will very subtly change color to improve feedback to the user that this is a valid action.
In the included screenshot, I am changing the bar with 'Basic Materials' (Just a CWnd with a CStatic) from having a medium gray background when unhighlighed to a blue background when hovered over. It all works well, the OnDragEnter and OnDragExit messages seem robust and set a flag indicating the highlight status. Then in OnCtrlColor I do this:
if (!m_bHighlighted) {
pDC->FillSolidRect(0, 0, m_SizeX, kGroupHeaderHeight, kBackgroundColour);
}
else {
pDC->FillSolidRect(0, 0, m_SizeX, kGroupHeaderHeight, kHighlightedBackgroundColour);
}
![Material Library Badness][1]
However, as you can see in the screenshot, the painting 'glitches' below the dragged object, leaving the original gray in place. It looks really ugly and basically spoils the whole effect.
Is there any way I can get around this? MFC isn't fun at the best of times, and this is causing me to tear my hair out.
All help gratefully appreciated.

How, given a file/folder name (e.g. "somefile"), I get the *actual* name of that file/folder (e.g. it should return "SomeFile" if Explorer displays it so)?
Some ways I know, all of which seem quite backwards:
1. Given the full path, search for each folder on the path (via FindFirstFile). This gives proper cased results of each folder. At the last step, search for the file itself.
2. Get filename from handle (as in [MSDN example][1]). This requires opening a file, creating file mapping, getting it's name, parsing device names etc. Pretty convoluted. And it does not work for folders or zero-size files.

Implementing Equals() for reference types is harder than it seems. My current canonical implementation goes like this:
public bool Equals( MyClass obj )
{
// If both refer to the same reference they are equal.
if( ReferenceEquals( obj, this ) )
return true;
// If the other object is null they are not equal because in C# this cannot be null.
if( ReferenceEquals( obj, null ) )
return false;
// Compare data to evaluate equality
return _data.Equals( obj._data );
}
public override bool Equals( object obj )
{
// If both refer to the same reference they are equal.
if( ReferenceEquals( obj, this ) )
return true;
// If the other object is null or is of a different types the objects are not equal.
if( ReferenceEquals( obj, null ) || obj.GetType() != GetType() )
return false;
// Use type-safe equality comparison
return Equals( (MyClass)obj );
}
public override int GetHashCode()
{
// Use data's hash code as our hashcode
return _data.GetHashCode();
}

If my application uses Quicktime, I'd like to install the necessary libraries with it's installer, thus not requiring user to install Quicktime separately. What I'm looking for is some sort of "quicktime redistributable".
As of now (quicktime 7.x), I can't find a way to do that. I could bundle whole quicktime installer (about 20 MiB), and launch it with MSI's silent/unattended flag. However, that way it has several side effects:
1. creates Quicktime player shortcut on desktop and in quick launch bar
2. hijacks file associations, (e.g. .mov becomes associated with Quicktime Player, even if it was associated with something else before)
3. installs some service/process (qttask) that presumably watches for Quicktime associations, or handles auto-updates.
4. installs Quicktime Player, which I don't need in fact.
Of the above, first three are quite bad.
Is there a way to "just install the libraries" for Quicktime?
