How to disable the "Partial NCI output file" Message.

[sigmawave]

Hello!

 

My problem is that when I select partial operations to generate NCI file, I alway got the "Partial NCI output file" message. How can I get rid of it.

 

For Example:

I have a program which has more than one operations. I just want to post-process the first 2 operations. I have the following code:

code:

---

operation *temp_op = NULL;

for (int i=0; i<TpMainOpMgr.GetMainOpList().GetSize(); i++)

{

temp_op = TpMainOpMgr.GetMainOpList().GetAt(i);

temp_op->db.select_flag = (i<2)? TRUE:FALSE;

}

 

post_dlg_settings ps;

 

ps.description = FALSE;

ps.editNC = FALSE;

ps.editNCI = FALSE;

ps.export_oplist = FALSE;

ps.export_prm = FALSE;

ps.overwrite_nc = FALSE;

ps.overwrite_nci = TRUE;

ps.save_nc_file = FALSE;

ps.save_nci_file = TRUE;

ps.send_to_machine = FALSE;

ps.wcs_1014 = TRUE;

 

char pf[MAX_PATH];

char ncdir[MAX_PATH] = "C:";

 

strcpy_s(pf, PostProcFileStr(NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL));

 

postOps(&ps, pf, ncdir, FALSE, TRUE);

---

Any suggestion will be appricated.

 

Thanks!

I don't believe that you can.

As soon as I get my system reloaded I'll be able to investigate further.

Reloading a system is such a pain,

even worse when it's not even a new system!

Thanks, Roger.

 

I Hope you can give me a positive answer.

Sigma,

 

If you're writing an application that needs this feature, I can't help you. But, if you simply want to eliminate the message during your normal MC usage, I suggest you download the free program RtvReco. It's a very small "clean" program that will push buttons for you, check/uncheck boxes, select/unselect radio buttons, etc...all in the blink of an eye. It works with all Windows programs, not just MC. You can set it up to eliminate the annoying dialog boxes that you always answer the same way.

 

RtvReco

Thank you, Thad.

 

Unfortunetly, I am developing a C-Hook. I can't take your method in my software.

 

It is very interesting to know this software you recommended. I will try it in some other situations.

 

Thanks again.

There is no call that has a "don't show this message" parameter.

 

A way around this would be to mark all the other operations as "Do not Post".

 

 

code:

---

void PostOperations()	

{

operation *temp_op = NULL;

for (int i=0; i<TpMainOpMgr.GetMainOpList().GetSize(); i++)

{

temp_op = TpMainOpMgr.GetMainOpList().GetAt(i);

temp_op->db.select_flag = FALSE; // reset ALL

temp_op->db.no_post = FALSE; // reset ALL

if (i<2)

temp_op->db.select_flag = TRUE;

else

temp_op->db.no_post = TRUE;

}

 

// ...<snipped>...

}

Thanks Roger.

 

It works.
