Hey, I'm new to win32 and basically, I want to create a program that reads commands from a text file and then does the command. So, say if I wanted to write some text on an application window, i'd just have to write:
lable.caption huuhaa
I have done, something simular in console but in Win32 it just won't work... Here is the code:
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <fstream.h>
#include <wininet.h>
using namespace std;
char buffer[1000];
string realCommand;
string startLine;
char command[100];
char param1[1];
char param2[1];
char param3[1];
char param4[100];
char param5[100];
char param6[100];
char param7[100];
char varible[100];
char number1;
char number2;
string title;
char param8[100];
/* Declare Windows procedure */
LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure (HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM);
/* Make the class name into a global variable */
char szClassName[ ] = "WindowsApp";
int WINAPI WinMain (HINSTANCE hThisInstance,
HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpszArgument,
int nFunsterStil)
{
HWND hwnd; /* This is the handle for our window */
MSG messages; /* Here messages to the application are saved */
WNDCLASSEX wincl; /* Data structure for the windowclass */
/* The Window structure */
wincl.hInstance = hThisInstance;
wincl.lpszClassName = szClassName;
wincl.lpfnWndProc = WindowProcedure; /* This function is called by windows */
wincl.style = CS_DBLCLKS; /* Catch double-clicks */
wincl.cbSize = sizeof (WNDCLASSEX);
/* Use default icon and mouse-pointer */
wincl.hIcon = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
wincl.hIconSm = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
wincl.hCursor = LoadCursor (NULL, IDC_ARROW);
wincl.lpszMenuName = NULL; /* No menu */
wincl.cbClsExtra = 0; /* No extra bytes after the window class */
wincl.cbWndExtra = 0; /* structure or the window instance */
/* Use Windows's default color as the background of the window */
wincl.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH) COLOR_BACKGROUND;
/* Register the window class, and if it fails quit the program */
if (!RegisterClassEx (&wincl))
return 0;
/* The class is registered, let's create the program*/
hwnd = CreateWindowEx (
0, /* Extended possibilites for variation */
szClassName, /* Classname */
"sfffffffff", /* Title Text */
WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, /* default window */
CW_USEDEFAULT, /* Windows decides the position */
CW_USEDEFAULT, /* where the window ends up on the screen */
544, /* The programs width */
375, /* and height in pixels */
HWND_DESKTOP, /* The window is a child-window to desktop */
NULL, /* No menu */
hThisInstance, /* Program Instance handler */
NULL /* No Window Creation data */
);
/* Make the window visible on the screen */
ShowWindow (hwnd, nFunsterStil);
/* Run the message loop. It will run until GetMessage() returns 0 */
while (GetMessage (&messages, NULL, 0, 0))
{
/* Translate virtual-key messages into character messages */
TranslateMessage(&messages);
/* Send message to WindowProcedure */
DispatchMessage(&messages);
}
/* The program return-value is 0 - The value that PostQuitMessage() gave */
return messages.wParam;
}
/* This function is called by the Windows function DispatchMessage() */
LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure (HWND hwnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------- OPEN
ifstream myfile ("script.txt");
myfile.getline(buffer, 100);
sscanf(buffer, "%s", command);
realCommand = command;
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// CLOSE
switch(message) {
if (realCommand == "lable.caption")
{
sscanf(buffer, "%*s %[", param1);
case WM_PAINT:
HDC hdc;
PAINTSTRUCT ps;
LPSTR szMessage = "huuhaa";
hdc = BeginPaint(hwnd, &ps);
TextOut(hdc, 70, 50, szMessage, strlen(szMessage));
EndPaint(hwnd, &ps);
break;
}
case WM_CLOSE:
DestroyWindow(hwnd);
break;
case WM_DESTROY:
PostQuitMessage(0);
break;
default:
return DefWindowProc(hwnd, message, wParam, lParam);
}
return 0;
}
So, what it is doing is displaying the text even though the command is not written in the text file... Any help please?
