• Lance199 DateTimePicker Format changes from Time to Short Date

  I have a number of DateTimePicker controls, some set to dates, some set to a format of Time. The controls are all embedded in dialogs. I created the controls by dragging the DateTime picker from the Toolbox and then set the Format property appropriately. I have noticed that the Time format will reset spontaneously to Short Date. Is there a known problem with the format for the DateTimePicker or is there anything I can do to keep the format the ...Show All

• Yogi Verite Round Library Function

  Hello, Is there a 'round' library function in VC++ This function should be able to give results like the one below round(0.234,2) = 0.23 Thanks, Whizman If you are using .NET, you can use Math::Round If not, then there's no direct CRT function that'll do that for you.

• bjun _strtime C3861 error

  Hi guys, sorry to ask such a newbie question but when I try to build code which uses the _strtime() function I get a C3861 error. The time.h header is included and so I can't understand why the compiler would not recognise the function.

• mister.manners Policy based implementation and multiple inheritance class size

  While implementing a policy based class, I've noticed a strange behaviour on VC++ 8 concerning the size of a class inheriting from more than one class. Consider the following example where class CSize inherits from 4 empty classes : class A {}; class B {}; class C {}; class D {}; class CSize : public A, public B, public C, class D {}; In this sample, sizeof(CSize ) == 3, while I was expecting 1. As I could not explain it, I've ...Show All
