c++ - Why is my TB_INSERTBUTTON message causing comctl32 to throw? -


i'm trying add additional button toolbar in internet explorer.

i assumed implementation straight forward, , using code:

tbbutton buttontoadd; zeromemory( &buttontoadd, sizeof( tbbutton ) ); buttontoadd.ibitmap = 1; buttontoadd.idcommand = 1; buttontoadd.fsstate = tbstate_enabled; buttontoadd.fsstyle = btns_button|btns_autosize;  lresult insertbuttonresult = sendmessage( hwndtoolbar, tb_insertbutton, 0, (lparam)&buttontoadd );

when message sent, internet explorer crash 90% of time (10% of time, broken button on toolbar) following exception:

unhandled exception @ 0x000007fefb97ddfa (comctl32.dll) in iexplore.exe: 0xc000041d: unhandled exception encountered during user callback.

given results aren't consistent, assumed sort of memory layout issue. tried send tb_insertbuttona instead (my application defaults tb_insertbuttonw), has no effect on issue.

i tried both 32 , 64 builds of application, both have same result.

i took @ callstack of iexplore.exe, looks this:

comctl32.dll!ctoolbar::tbinputstruct(struct _tbbuttondata *,struct _tbbutton const *)   unknown comctl32.dll!ctoolbar::tbinsertbuttons(unsigned int,unsigned int,struct _tbbutton *,int)    unknown comctl32.dll!ctoolbar::toolbarwndproc(struct hwnd__ *,unsigned int,unsigned __int64,__int64)    unknown comctl32.dll!ctoolbar::s_toolbarwndproc(struct hwnd__ *,unsigned int,unsigned __int64,__int64)  unknown user32.dll!usercallwinproccheckwow()   unknown user32.dll!dispatchclientmessage() unknown user32.dll!__fndword() unknown ntdll.dll!kiusercallbackdispatchercontinue()   unknown user32.dll!ntuserpeekmessage() unknown user32.dll!peekmessagew()  unknown ...

i found interesting, because i'm assuming method @ top copies data input structure internal structure , goes wrong. what's wrong input data structure?

the source code available on github at: https://github.com/oliversalzburg/ie-button

it failing because sending message contains pointer across process boundary. note fact pass address:

lresult insertbuttonresult = sendmessage(hwndtoolbar, tb_insertbutton, 0,      (lparam)&buttontoadd);

that final parameter address in processes address space. recipient different process , address pass has no meaning in address space of other process.

some messages, instance wm_settext, have payloads marshalled other process system. tb_insertbutton not fall category. 1 of rules of tb_insertbutton pointer pass has meaning in process owns recipient window.

you can resolve using virtualalloc, writeprocessmemory, etc. allocate , write memory in other process.

be warned difficult task right. in particular matters whether or not 2 processes have same bitness. layout of struct differs between 32 , 64 bit. easiest way make sure send right layout compile process same bitness target process.

by far easiest way inside target process. if write plugin not have deal of these issues , able use officially supported apis extension.

as raymond says, attempting rather dangerous , heed advice.

html - Sizing a high-res image (~8MB) to display entirely in a small div (circular, diameter 100px) -

first of all, thank being patient know simple question more couple of weeks' experience figure out. i've seen folks persevere , helpful on here , hope you're willing me. here fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/65uzf/ here 1 of places searched answers on here: ( vertically center image thumbnails fix-sized div ) tried solutions on there , didn't work out me. i've searched ~4 or 5 others, , been unsuccessful those, too. what want take large image (what linked background-image #ysypic , #tabpic divs) , display thumbnail version of image in confines of divs have set it. is, using background properties have laid out in css, portion of image displays inside of circular divs. without these properties, display defaults smaller section of image [presumably pi*(50^2) area in top left] terrible resolution. i not care if entire image doesn't display inside of circles (it won't, given difference in shape), , overflow not being displayed fine. want able see figu

java - IntelliJ - No such instance method -

using intellij's 12 ultimate, i'm running following code in debugger: java import play.api.libs.json.jsvalue; public class foo { ... public jsvalue tojson() { ... } public class fooexample { ... foo foo = new foo(); system.out.println("...); //<-- breakpoint at breakpoint, right-clicked source code , picked "evaluate expression," typing in: foo.tojson() . but following error showed up: no such instance method: play.api.libs.json.jsvalue$class.com.foo.foo.tojson () am doing wrong? foo#tojson calls scala code, if matters. edit had breakpoint after instantiation of foo. downvoted it, deserved it. edit my answer no longer valid after op modified question (i.e. moved breakpoint actual is).. a breakpoint hit before line executed. in case foo has not yet been declared or instantiated (i.e. foo constructor has not yet been called). you'll need put breakpoint @ next line (or step on current line) if want evaluate foo .

identifier - Is it possible for an html5 document to have two ids? -

i wondering if html5 element can have 2 ids, this: <button id="thing1" id="thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> or this: <button id="thing1, thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> also, if 1 of ids said 1 thing, , other id said thing, 1 used? tl;dr : no. in versions of html, each element can have 1 id. see the spec : the id attribute specifies element's unique identifier (id). [dom] the value must unique amongst ids in element's home subtree , must contain @ least 1 character. the value must not contain space characters. note: there no other restrictions on form id can take; in particular, ids can consist of digits, start digit, start underscore, consist of punctuation , etc. note: element's unique identifier can used variety of purposes, notably way link specific parts of document usin
