在皮肤界面中，最难的恐怕就是自画窗口标题了，网上虽然有各种各样的解决方法，但是都不是很完美，而商业皮肤界面程序包是需要花钱买的。

其中最主要的问题有：

1、在标题栏或边框移动鼠标时系统会画窗口标题

2、没有任务栏图标。当取消了 SYS_CAPTION Style 后系统不会画窗口标题了，但是同时该窗口也没有任务栏图标。

3、最大化后在标题栏按下鼠标时系统会画窗口标题

4、按下系统按钮再移动鼠标到按钮外后没有正确的重画按钮

    没办法，只有自己摸索了，研究了网络上的一些代码片段和几个比较成功的皮肤界面程序比如 RealPlay, Microsoft Money ，发现它们采用的手法都不尽相同，而网上关于这个问题也没有很完美的解决方案，总是有点小瑕疵。最后，去研究了一下 Windows 2000 的核心代码中关于窗口管理部分，终于算是比较满意的解决了上面的这些问题，但是，我采用的方法和RealPlay, Microsoft Money 都不太一样，RealPlay 好象没有了 NC_* 的消息，而Microsoft Money 则是采用遮盖的方法，而我是采用直接重画的方法，关键是找到重画的关键点。

　　一直以来用 AxIcon Workshop 来处理图标，但是 AxIcon Workshop稍微有点问题就是，不支持重复图标过滤，而且，在处理大量图标的时候很容易没有响应！：（

　　为此，我自己写了一个图标处理工具，可以自动抽取 DLL/EXE/ICL 等文件中的图标，并进行重复图标自动过滤，图标扫描等功能，其中比较困难的是对 ICL 文件的处理，ICL 文件本质上是一个 16 Bit 的 DLL 资源文件，但是在 Windows 2000 下好象没有直接操作它的函数，至少我是不知道，查了 Google 也没查到相关资料，没有办法，只有硬来了，查了 16 Bit 的 EXE 的文件结构资料，结合网上可以找到的一些对16 Bit 的 EXE 的读写代码片段，再经过探索和摸索，终于成功的将从 ICL 中分离出 ICON 。其中的关键代码如下：希望给你有帮助

以前在Window 2000 IIS5.0下写了一个URL检测 + 重定向 + Session + 入侵检测 + 自动解压+ 自动解密的 ISAPI Filter ，用于数字图书馆项目，一直都很好使， 最近升级到 Widnows 2003 IIS6.0 后，发现　ISAPI Filter 根本运行不起来，后来查了又查，原来是文件的权限问题，IIS 6.0 ISAPI Filter 好象是在　Service 帐号下运行的(具体我也没去查过) ,将数据文件的读写权限给予Service 帐号后,ISAPI Filter 终于可以正常运行了，但是，在随后的测试中，我发现，数据解密结果不正确，郁闷啊，查吧............

经过日志跟踪和分析，终于发现问题所在，原来　IIS 6.0 和 IIS 5.0 发送给客户端的时候应答稍微有点不一样，IIS 5.0 是先单独发应一次答头 HttpFilterProc->OnSendData，

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
Date: Mon, 04 Apr 2005 05:39:01 GMT
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Last-Modified: Mon, 04 Apr 2005 05:39:00 GMT
ETag: W/"90c9399ad838c51:fd1"
Content-Length: 661442

然后分多次发送数据　HttpFilterProc->OnSendData；

 

而 IIS6.0 却是将应答头和数据一起发送的，也就是说IIS 6.0 的第一次HttpFilterProc->OnSendData　中即包含了应答头，也包含了数据，

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Mon, 04 Apr 2005 05:17:09 GMT
Content-Length: 661442
Content-Type: application/pdf
Last-Modified: Mon, 04 Apr 2005 05:16:41 GMT
Accept-Ranges: bytes
ETag: "4c949b7cd538c51:ef5"
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET

%PDutv?在>2fW[[; e?v0F[Z4楽=Z;uJVYCYX(|XES敵蛣?

而原先的程序没有为这种情况设计，经过调整后，ISAPI Filter 已经成功的运行在　IIS 5.0 和　IIS 6.0 下了。

Windows Template Library - WTL Version 7.5         (build 5058) 2/27/05 Development Release

By using this software in any fashion, you are agreeing to be bound by the terms of this license. You must not remove this notice, or any other, from this software.

 

 

Welcome to the Windows Template Library, version 7.5. This document contains the following topics:

 

1. Introduction
2. Features And Installation
3. Packing List
4. Class Overview
5. ATL/WTL AppWizard
6. Support for Windows CE
7. Notes
8. Changes Between WTL 7.5 And 7.1
9. Changes Between WTL 7.1 And 7.0
10. Changes Between WTL 7.0 And 3.1
11. Changes Between WTL 3.1 And 3.0

 

 

1. Introduction

 

Windows Template Library, or WTL, is a set of classes that extend ATL to support more complex user interfaces for either applications or various UI components, while maintaining the big advantage of ATL - small and fast code. WTL classes were designed to be the best and the easiest way to implement rich Win32 based UI for ATL based applications, servers, components, and controls.

 

WTL provides support for implementing many user interface elements, from frame and popup windows, to MDI, standard and common controls, common dialogs, property sheets and pages, GDI objects, UI updating, scrollable windows, splitter windows, command bars, etc. The WTL classes are mostly templated and use minimal instance data and inline functions. They were not designed as a framework, so they do not force a particular application model, and can accommodate any. The classes do not use hooks or thread local storage, so they have no restrictions that those techniques impose. They also have no inter-dependencies and can be freely mixed with straight SDK code. In summary, WTL delivers very small and efficient code, very close in size and speed to SDK programs, while presenting a more logical, object oriented model to a programmer.

 

 

2. Features And Installation

 

This is the fifth public release of WTL, after WTL 3.0, 3.1, 7.0, and 7.1. It is also the first release of WTL under the Common Public License, enabling developers from the WTL community to contribute to the library.

 

WTL classes can be used with either VC++ 6.0 and ATL 3.0, VC++ .NET 2002 and ATL 7.0, VC++ .NET 2003 and ATL 7.1, or EVC++ 4.0 or 3.0 with ATL for Windows CE. AppWizard for VC++ .NET 2002 and 2003 is included.

 

The WTL classes are provided in header files located in the include directory. The only header files that must be included is atlapp.h, while others can be used when needed. The name of the file doesn't mean that you have to create an application, just that atlapp.h contains base definitions required for WTL projects.

 

To install WTL, just copy the whole directory structure, or unpack the archive file, to the location of your choice. Please be sure to add the WTL\include directory to the list of include directories in VC++, so that the compiler can find them when you include them in your projects..

 

Setup programs for the AppWizard are provided. After executing the setup scripts, ATL/WTL AppWizard will appear in the list of AppWizards when you select File.New.Project in VC++ IDE. The file AppWiz\setup70.js is the setup script for VC++ .NET 2002, while AppWiz\setup71.js is for VC++ .NET 2003.

 

To manually install AppWizard for VC++ .NET 2002, copy all WTLAppWiz.* files from AppWiz\Files to VC++ .NET projects directory, %VC7DIR%\Vc7\vcprojects, where %VC7DIR% is the directory where VC++ .NET 2002 is installed. After that, open WTLAppWiz.vsz and modify the like that contains ABSOLUTE_PATH to contain %WTLDIR%\AppWiz\Files, where %WTLDIR% is the directory where WTL files are.

 

For VC++ .NET 2003 use the WTLApp71.* files with the same steps.

 

Platform support and requirements:

 

    Compiler/IDE/ATL:

            Visual C++ 6.0   (ATL 3.0)

            Visual C++.NET 2002   (ATL 7.0)

            Visual C++.NET 2003   (ATL 7.1)

 

    SDK (optional):

            Any Platform SDK from January 2000 release up to the latest (February 2003)

 

    Windows CE development:

            eMbedded Visual C++ 3.0 - Pocket PC, Pocket PC 2002

            eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 - STANDARDSDK_410, Pocket PC 2003, Smartphone 2003

 

This release also brings the preliminary support for the Visual Studio 2005 (codename Whidbey) Beta1. App Wizards for both Windows applications and SmartDevice projects are provided.

5. ATL/WTL AppWizard

 

ATL/WTL AppWizard generates starting code for a WTL application. It has options to create code for different application types and features.

 

You can choose the following options:

• Application type (SDI, multi thread SDI, MDI, dialog based)
• Support for hosting ActiveX controls
• COM server support
• Class implementation in .CPP files
• Common Control manifest
• Toolbar, rebar, command bar, status bar
• View window, and it's type (generic, dialog based form, or a list box, edit, list view, tree view, rich edit based, HTML page)
• For dialog based apps or a form based view window - support for hosting ActiveX controls in the dialog

 

ATL/WTL AppWizard supports VC++ .NET 2002 and 2003.

 

 

6. Support for Windows CE

 

WTL now fully supports building projects for the Windows CE platforms. This initial support for Windows CE was implemented primarily for eMbedded Visual C++ 4.0 with Pocket PC 2003 and SmartPhone 2003 SDKs. However, it can be used with other versions and configurations. For instance, Standard SDK 4.1 is supported as well. Considerable effort was made to provide the best Windows CE support, however, there might be some limitations because different platforms provide different programming support.

 

The support for Windows CE was not designed to port projects for the desktop version of Windows as-is to the Windows CE platforms, but to allow use of the same library, WTL, for both desktop Windows and Windows CE. Applications for Windows CE are often designed in a different way, and they use different platform services. WTL depends on the version of ATL provided with each Windows CE platform, and supports controls and services that are appropriate and supported for each Windows CE platform.

 

 

7. Notes

 

~    WTL provides several classes that are also present in ATL 7.0 and 7.1. The classes are: CSize, CPoint, CRect, and CString in atlmisc.h. While their existence will not cause any problems, their usage might. You should qualify the class you want to use with a namespace to resolve ambiguity, either ATL or WTL namespace, depending on which implementation you want to use. Alternatively, you can conditionally exclude WTL implementations, by defining preprocessor symbol _WTL_NO_WTYPES for CSize, CPoint, and CRect; and _WTL_NO_CSTRING for CString.

 

~    If you use WTL 7.5 with VC++ 6.0/ATL 3.0 and define _ATL_STATIC_REGISTRY, you'll get errors referring to the ambiguous symbol ATL. This is caused by a bug in ATL 3.0 - in atlbase.h, the file statreg.h is included inside of the ATL namespace, and it contains another namespace ATL declaration. Because of that, the compiler cannot decide between ATL:: and ATL::ATL:: namespaces. The solution is either to fix the atlbase.h, or to surround atlbase.h include declaration with following statements:

 

    #define ATL   ATLFIX

    #include <atlapp.h>

    #undef ATL

    namespace ATL = ::ATLFIX;

 

~    Windows XP allows applications to use Common Controls version 6, which supports only Unicode applications. While WTL allows creation of Ansi applications that use Common Controls 6, that should be used only for test programs and is not recommended or supported for released projects. If you want to use Common Controls 6, build your application as Unicode.

 

~    Several of the sample programs included with WTL were extended to support building for Windows CE. These samples are not specially redesigned for Windows CE, but just modified to allow you to compile and run them on the Windows CE platforms. The samples are: BmpView, GuidGen, and MTPad.

 

~    WTL supports building projects with EVC++ 3.0 only for Pocket PC and Pocket PC 2002 platforms, as other platforms don't provide minimum support for ATL or other required libraries.

 

~    The old AppWizards for VC++ 6.0 and eVC++ 4.0/3.0 are not included in this version of WTL because they cannot be a part of an Open Source project. They are still available in the previous release, WTL 7.1.

        Lucene是一个高性能、纯Java的全文检索引擎，而且免费、开源。Lucene几乎适合于任何需要全文检索的应用，尤其是跨平台的应用。Lucene的作者Doug Cutting是一个资深的全文检索专家，刚开始，Doug Cutting将Lucene发表在自己的主页上，2000年3月将其转移到Sourceforge，于2001年10捐献给Apache，作为Jakarta的一个子工程。
        CLucene是C++版的全文检索引擎,完全移植于Lucene，采用 STL 编写。
        编译了一下 C++ 版本的 Lucene - CLucene - a C++ search engine  http://sourceforge.net/projects/clucene/
在 MSVC6 下修改了一些编译选项后编译成功，测试了一下，好象不支持对中文的全文检索，估计是分词部分对中文不支持，但是据说 Lucene 的全文检索架构是很 NB 的，有空研究研究 Lucene 的全文检索架构然后再加上中文分词功能吧，不加中文分词功能可没办法用。

BTW: 不知道 Java 版的 Lucene 稳定性怎样，但是 CLucene 的稳定性比较差，据说还有 n 多的内存泄露。

在2月15日于San Francisco召开的RSA 2005会议上，Microsoft主席兼首席架构工程师Bill Gates
宣布了Internet Explorer 7.0，IE 7.0为Windows XP SP2增加了新的安全功能，并维持了用户所需要的扩展性和兼容性。IE 7.0将对恶意软件和间谍软件拥有更强大的抵御能力。IE 7.0的Beta版本将于今年夏天发布。

同时MS表示去年8月发布的Windows XP SP2已经获得了巨大成功。Gates表示WinXP SP2在全球散发的拷贝已经超过了170M份，将近有一半的用户表示Windows XP SP2有更好的保护功能。而在最近调查的800家企业用户中，有77%的企业已经使用SP2有6个月之久。

在会议上Gates重申了公司的未来工作重点-安全:

"我们的首要目标是通过技术创新，指导和业界领袖地位的平衡，来提高所有用户的保密和安全-无论是个人消费者还是企业，无论大小。我们承诺将继续创新来解决当前和未来可能出现的种种安全威胁。"

        看源代码的时候免不了要格式化一下代码，Java 当然是用 Eclipse 了，但是 C/C++ 就一直没有一个合适好用的工具来格式化(Format)/风格化(Style)代码，虽然Visual Studio 6.0 - Visual Studio 2005都提供了代码格式化功能，但是，实在是 --- 太简单了，根本不够用！！！
        后来在网上搜索了一把，发现一个很不错的工具Artistic Style ，功能很强大，支持 C/C++/C# 和 Java，而且开源，目前最后版本是 1.17.0。此版本需要用 CVS 下载并编译，其中还是有些小 Bug, 估计是作者没空改，呵呵。

Artistic Style 1.17.0-dev

A Free, Fast and Small Automatic Formatter
for C, C++, C#, and Java Source Codes

Project Overview	http://astyle.sourceforge.net
Sources, Binaries, Bug Tracker, Mailinglists	http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/astyle/
Original Author	Tal Davidson, Israel (tald@users.sourceforge.net)
Maintainer	Martin Baute, Germany (devsolar@sourceforge.net)

Artistic Style is a reindenter and reformatter for C, C++, C#, and Java source code.

When indenting source code, we as programmers have a tendency to use both spaces and tab characters to create the wanted indentation. Moreover, some editors by default insert spaces instead of tabs when pressing the tab key, and other editors (Emacs for example) have the ability to "pretty up" lines by automatically setting up the white space before the code on the line, possibly inserting spaces in a code that up to now used only tabs for indentation.

Since the number of space characters showed on screen for each tab character in the source code changes between editors (unless the user sets up the number to his liking...), one of the standard problems programmers are facing when moving from one editor to another is that code containing both spaces and tabs that was up to now perfectly indented, suddently becomes a mess to look at when changing to another editor. Even if you as a programmer take care to only use spaces or tabs, looking at other peoples source code can still be problematic.

To address this problem, Artistic Style was created - a filter written in C++, that automatically reindents & reformats C / C++ / C# / Java source files. It can be used from a command line, or it can be incorporated in another C++ program.

The AStyle executable is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL); you may incorporate the core classes (ASBeautifier and ASFormatter) in other projects subject to the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). You may want to read the Release Notes.

       安装了开源的缺陷管理系统BugTracker.NET。BugTracker.NET 是用ASP.NET 和C#.写的在ASP.Net环境下运行的基于Web的缺陷管理系统，作为缺陷管理系统来说，功能比较弱，只有简单的缺陷级别和优先级，没有缺陷类型、缺陷起源、缺陷来源，缺陷类型等字段，虽然它是可定制的，但是可定制性不是很强，当然它是免费的，作为个人/小项目开发也勉强可用。

BTW：
        看了一下代码，代码质量不是很高，感觉作者写程序时比较随意，没有事先规划过，总的来说比较混乱，建议不用拿来作为参考了：P

Visual Assist X 是一个非常好的 Visual Studio 6.0 IDE 辅助工具, 但我一直没有找到注册码，当 Visual Assist X 过期后，有一种方法可以重置 Visual Assist X 的过期时间，供参考，步骤如下：
1、关闭 Visual Studio 6.0。
2、删除注册表中的 HKLM\Software\Licenses 键值。
3、删除 %TEMP% 中的 .tmp 文件。
4、在注册表中搜索关键字 "nLxxQ" ，会找到一个类似于下面所示的 COM 注册项，删除整个该项。

由于硬盘物理损坏，索性重新装了一下操作系统和新的开发环境

- Windows 2003 

- SharePoint 2003

- Visual Studio 6.0

- Visual Studio 2005

- Avalon

其中主要是 Visual Studio 2005,另外新版本的 CVSNT 2.0.58d 好象配置上有些改变，主要是用户验证上，好象必须要一个 Windows 帐号和 CVSNT 帐号对应，否则就会出现“no such user”的错误，另外，cvs chacl 命令也和以前有点不同，而且，cvs chacl 还存在 bug  ???, 会在服务器的 CVSRoot/CVS/ 下产生一个格式错误的 fileattr.xml  文件，导致不能 Check In ,Check  out, 在给搞了半天手工修改 fileattr.xml  文件才搞好。现在一切正常了，:D

        前几天硬盘坏了，好在数据都抢救出来了，没办法，只好重装操作系统，干脆装个 Windows 2003 吧，在装个 .Net 开发环境，现在是应该开始用 .Net 做开发的时候了，因为 .Net 现在才开始稳定和成熟起来，还要装 SharePoint 2003，据说可以在同一台机器上面成功地安装域控制器、SQL2K，SharePoint 2003，但是有个技巧：KB831704。
