HyberLinkStatic

2 May, 2003 This is a new static control I created a while ago because I can't find one after poring through the net for a long, long time. I just recently found out that there are good and perhaps better implementations of static hyperlink controls out there. But IMHO mine has served me well enough that I want to share it with you. The control is sub-classed from CStatic so it is compatible with MFC. CHyperLink sports the following members: GetActiveColor - Gets the color of the active link (when the link is being opened). SetActiveColor - Sets the color of the active link. GetHoverColor - Gets the hover color of the link (when the mouse is over the control). SetHoverColor - Sets the hover color of the link. GetLinkColor - Gets the link color. SetLinkColor - Sets the link color. GetVisitedColor - Gets the color of already visited link. SetVisitedColor - Sets the color of already visited link. GetBkColor - Gets the background color. SetBkColor - Sets the background color. Automatically sets the background mode to OPAQUE. GetBkMode - Gets the background mode. If the mode is OPAQUE, the background is filled first with current background color. SetBkMode - Sets the background mode. GetUnderline - Gets the underline mode. Values are ALWAYS = 0, ONHOVER = 1, NONE = 2. Default is ALWAYS. SetUnderline - Sets the underline mode. GetToolTipText - Gets the tool tip text. SetToolTipText - Sets the tool tip text. GetURL - Gets the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) string. SetURL - Sets the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) string. GetLinkCursor - Gets the HCURSOR used as the current mouse cursor for the control. SetLinkCursor - Sets the HCURSOR used as the current mouse cursor for the control. To manipulate the caption, just use CWnd::GetWindowText and CWnd::SetWindowText. CWnd::SetFont is also used for setting the font. Theoretically, the class should work with any static control but I haven't tested it with all conceivable static controls. This code is provided as is without guarantee, expressed or implied, that it will work as expected under all conditions. I will not shoulder any liabilities arising from its use and/or misuse. Feel free to change/improve the code. Please send me a copy if you do make improvements. :) Copyright (c) 2002-03 Mark Jundo P.
