I've never made GUIs, so how do you use the code and put it in an exe?

MonkeyMan - October 14, 2003 08:41 PM (GMT)

I dont know how your message box looks but here is an example:

CODE

#include <windows.h>
int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,HINSTANCE hParent,LPSTR CmdLine,int Show)
{
MessageBox(NULL,"This is the first line of the message box.\nTHis is the second line of the message box.\nThis is the last line. Thanks","The Title",MB_OK);
return 1;
}

its not just a message box its a program that lest you pick your settings then gives you the code

Uhh, what are you talking about? You compile your source to create a file (DLL, executable, etc.). You don't "put" it in an exe.

Dunno why, but I've always liked doing the old

CODE

#include "stdafx.h"

int APIENTRY WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,
HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine,
int nCmdShow)
{
for (int i=0; i>=0; i++)
{MessageBox(NULL, "Text", "Title", MB_ICONERROR | MB_OK);
}
return 0;
}

return 1;

You're supposed to return 0 if you return before the message loop.

And 70D, I've made programs likethat (who hasn't), but wouldn't

CODE

for(;;)

be a little more efficient?

7OD - October 25, 2003 05:49 AM (GMT)

Of course, everyone has...
