    - Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 compiler problem #include <memory.h> class str{ public: str(){memset( &szBuf, 0x00, sizeof(szBuf) );} bool operator == ( str& strTmp ) { return memcmp( &this->szBuf, &strTmp.szBuf, sizeof(this->szBuf) ) == 0; } bool operator != ( str& strTmp ) { return memcmp( &this->szBuf, &strTmp.szBuf, sizeof(this->szBuf) ) != 0; } operator char* (){ return (char*) szBuf; } private: char szBuf[128]; }_str; int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { str s1; bool b = s1 == str(); return 0; } Hi there, In the source above when I use Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003 at line 'bool b = s1 == str();' first is called operator (char*) for member 's1' after that is called operator (char*) for str() and then operator == for type (char*). Of course after this the result from '==' is 'false'. If I add 'const' for referenced parameter in str::operator == ( bool operator == ( const str& strTmp ) ...) the right operator is called (str::operator == ) and the result is 'true'. In Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2002 and in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 this source works fine (str::operator == is called) without adding 'const' to the parameter. Is this is cimpiler bug or something else? Any ideas, comments, thoughts... :-)) Thanks Dimitar Lazarov Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231919

    - Cannot save file. The file may be in use by another application I am running MSVC 6.0 Ever since I upgraded to XP (and I don't think it is related to that) I've been getting a strange and inconsistant error. In some projects (not all, some more than others) occasionally when I save a file I get an error messagebox saying: "Microsoft Visual C++" "Cannot save file. The file may be in use by another application." I don't think it is in use by any other applications and when I repeat the save it always works fine the second time. I've tried to compare a problem project with one that rarely does this, but I don't see any setting differences. It's getting to be really annoying. Any help is really welcome.

    - FindNextChangeNotification I am trying to write a little program to monitor a directory and its sub-trees. I get FindNextChangeNotification, FindNextChangeNotification and FindCloseChangeNotification to work fine but when they pop I can't tell what file changed. I've looked at ReadDirectoryChangesW but I can't get it to compile - it says "undeclared identifier". Is there anyway to get this info? I'd hate to have to step through the directories one by one.

    - MC.EXE: how to have single event log message file for several programs Hi all I have an application consisting of several programs. I want to have a single dll with event log messages for all programs together. Each program should have its own ProgXY-Msg.mc file. Is this possible? The following two lines make up the ProgXY-Msg.rc file: LANGUAGE 0x7,0x1 1 11 ProgXY-Msg.bin I suppose I can not have more than one resource with a leading "1 11". I suppose if I change it to "2 11" or "1 12" the event log will not be able to read its messages. Is there an alternative to concatenating all *.mc files into a single all.mc file before calling the message compiler MC.EXE? Is there anything like a commandline parameter to MC.EXE to read several mc-files at once? Is there anything like an include statement for *.mc files? Is there an alternative to MC.EXE with does anything of the above? any hints welcome Joerg M-T Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231915

    - (Not) Echoing Input in Secondary DOS Windows The following program compiles (in VC6.0) and executes, but it fails in one important area: echoing user input in secondary created DOS windows. If you examine the MkWin routine to see how I'm creating these windows (cobbled from MS Help code), something is not being done to make the fgets show data input after the base window's i/o. Specifically, you will see the the prompt for "First Name" works, but the processing for "Last Name" (in the 3rd window) doesn't echo the user input. However, the data is entered in the variable... Comments? Thoughts?

    - Forcing a symbol out of an executable I'm using VC6.0 SP5 and VC.NET 7.1. I have a third-party static library (no source) that when linked into my executable, results in my executable exporting the static library's symbols. I believe it's due to how the static library itself is contructed (I'm not specifying its entry points in a .def file, with a /EXPORTS or /INCLUDE switch, or by __declspec(dllexport) in the source code of my project or any includes) . Is it possible to either: a) Modify the static library to prevent this behavior or b) Explicitly exclude entry points when linking my executable and if so, how? Thanks. -------------------------- Kyle Alons http://www.kinook.com/ Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231902

    - run-time array bounds checking Compiling the program below with MSVC 13.10.3077 for 80x86 using the /GX /GZ /Ge options #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int ix[1]; ix[0] = 3; cout << ix[0] << " " << ix[1] << endl; } produces a compilation warning local variable 'ix' used without having been initialized and output 3 -858993460 Is there an option that will cause the program to terminate at run time (preferably with an informative error message) when trying to access an out-of-bounds array element? If I add the line ix[1] = 4; before the cout the program prints '3 4' and then crashes. It would be better if it crashed at the 'ix[1] = 4;' line.

    - OO dll backward compactibility problem Hi, I wonder if anyone can give me some advices for this problem. I have been working on some program to interface with some devices and I would like to use the OO model to interface with different devices with different dll. I tried to seperate the design into 3 layers: /* BaseDevice .h */ class EXPORT_DLL_PREFIX BaseDevice{ public: BaseDevice(){} ~BaseDevice(){} virtual void DeviceCallA()=0; }; typedef BaseDevice * (CALLBACK* BASEDEVICE_GET_INSTANCE)(); /* Inherited Device class A DeviceA.cpp */ #include <BaseDevice.h> #static BaseDevice instance = NULL; class EXPORT_DLL_PREFIX DeviceA: BaseDevice { public: DeviceA() {// do something} ~DeviceA() {// do something } DeviceCallA() { // Do the actual work here... } }; BaseDevice * getInstance() { .... instance = new DeviceA(); return instance; } /* upper interface layer upper.cpp */ ... static BASE_DEVICE_GET_INSTANCE getInstance; .... BaseDevice * device; ..... getInstance = (BASE_DEVICE_GET_INSTANCE )GetProcAddress( modHandle, _T( "getInstance" ) ); // link to the (DeviceA.dll) and get the instance... device = getInstance(); device -> DeviceCallA(); .. Turn out it works. However, if I would like to add another method to the BaseDevice.h for the new support device, problems comes up. Any previous application which was developed using DeviceA.dll will not run. I know that it is due to the virtual table ordering when new methods are added. Are there any suggestion to this problem that adding new methods will not affect previously developed applications which used link to the previous version of the dll implementing the previous version of the abstract class?

    - __loctotime32_t problem in MSVS 8.0 If issues related to MSVS 8.0 should be posted somewhere else, I would appreciate a pointer in the right direction. We are using MSVS 8.0.40426 (pd5.040426-1400) on Win32 XP There looks to be a bug in __loctotime32_t (called from _stati64 which is actually _stat32i64) where EINVAL is incorrectly reported. Here is the code fragment from the Microsoft VC7 CRT. Notice that the first "if" has a side effect of modifying the parameter "yr"; however, the subsequent _VALIDATE_RETURN expects "yr" not to have been changed. Also note that yr is later decremented by 1900 again. __time32_t __cdecl __loctotime32_t ( int yr, /* 0 based */ int mo, /* 1 based */ int dy, /* 1 based */ int hr, int mn, int sc, int dstflag ) { int tmpdays; __time32_t tmptim; struct tm tb; /* * Do a range check on the year and convert it to a delta * off of 1900. */ if ( ((yr -= 1900) < _BASE_YEAR) || (yr > _MAX_YEAR) ) return (__time32_t)(-1); _VALIDATE_RETURN( ( ( ( yr - 1900 ) >= _BASE_YEAR ) && ( ( yr - 1900 ) <= _MAX_YEAR ) ), EINVAL, ( ( __time32_t )( -1 ) ) ) yr -= 1900; -- Jason Hinsperger Product Manager iAnywhere Solutions Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231899

    - pre-compiled header file To use pre-compiled header file, for the first time of compiling a project, we have to specify "Not use pre-compiled header file" in the project's Setting options, since there is no .pch file yet and for each project, the .PCH file could be different. Is this correct? In a Windows console program, is the "stdafx.h" header file that determines what to be included in the .PCH file? Is "stdafx.h" header file can be compiled, can other header files like being created by myself be compile as well? Thanks! Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231886

    - Finding waveIn devices I am trying to read sound from a microphone but I can not make it work. The problem might be that I am using the device. According to waveInGetNumDevs(), I have two devices. My problem is that I do not know what devices they are, I do not know how to find their names and their device ids. In the documentation, they give the device to waveInOpen as WAVE_MAPPER which seems to work as some sort of default device. I can not make this work. (I hate the Visual Studio Help. When I search on DeviceId, I only get fax references. I suppose they are out there somewhere but I could not find any answers to my questions.)

    - Cannot add fields at runtime to a CDaoRecordSet class I solved this once before using VC++ and CDaoRecordSet, but I am looking for a better solution - even though I have the sinking feeling that what I am attempting to accomplish is not possible. Here is the issue (at least a pared down version of it): My VC++ MFC application has a Microsoft Access file Networks.mdb which currently has six fields. The problem arises when I want to add another (or seventh) field. There is no problem updating the CPP (or class file) for this file - Networks.mdb. I am able to successfully bind a new variable for the new field. But of course this means I can no longer read the old MDB file without throwing an exception. Which is not unexpected since the number of elements (6) no longer matches the new class file where m_nFields is now set to 7. So my question is there a way to open this mismatched MDB file at runtime so that I can retrieve the records and safe them in the new MDB file. Of course the added problem is both MDB files have the same name. TIA. Michael T. Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231820

I am using PathIsDirectory() function and I included <shlwapi.h> in my file. I am calling PathIsDirectory() inside a class virtual member function. When I try to build the program I am getting these 2 errors: error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__PathIsDirectoryA@4 fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals How can I fix these errors? Is there any other function that I can use? Thank you Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231806

    - Perhaps a VC++ compiler error Well I'm not sure who's fault is it, me or VC++ compiler!! I wrote a program which works with files in hard disk and it just reads them through "ifstream". This program of mine acts so strange, when I compile it as a release version, it works perfectly but when I compile it as a debug version, it cuases error and abnormal termination!! Can I do anything wrong to make such an error? I'm using VC++ 7.0 in visual studio .Net but without .Net framework. Please help...

    - C++ Object size Hello all, I want to find out is how much memory is being used by each class (and thus the object) in my application. This includes differentiating between the memory allocated for functions and memory allocated for static data (like arrays, constants etc.) Does anyone know of any utility that will allow me to obtain this information AFTER linking my application with other libraries? I tried to interpret the linker generated MAP file for this, but there seems to be no documentation on MSDN to interpret the keywords in the MAP file. If not another utility, does anyone know how to interpret the MAP file for individual objects/classes? Thanks, Adwait Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231790

    - LogonUser and ImpersonateLoggedOnUser Hi! I'm developing the setup of an application. It needs to write in registry and extract files on certain directories. The files are extracted using scripting interface (JScript) processed in my setup using odl to define new functions. The setup evaluate if current user have administrator privileges and, if he doesn't have them, it let you introduce username and password and change the current user with LogonUser and ImpersonateLoggedOnUser. This actions are done at the beginning and goes well (I can write in local machine entry of registry), but, when I extract files, the administrator privileges are lost. Does anyone knows how to resolve this? Does the scripting machine have their own privileges or is it multithread or something? Thanks at all Jordi Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231783

    - How to catch "integer division by zero" exception In VC7, Division by zero will cause system to throw an exception, I do not konw the exception type, I can only catch it by catch(...){} but, it's no use, because I do not know what the exception really was. Other run time exceptions, such as access violation, have the same problem. I can not find the exception types in the document. Dose some one know the exception type or know how to catch those exceptions? Thanks a lot. Tao Bo Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231780

    - Convert String to Variable I have a form which has a series of TextBoxes on it which are named bin0, bin1, bin2, ... On the form I have an array defined called bin[20] which holds integer values and the contents are changed by other code which returns the variable npod. If npod = 1 then I increment bin[1] and then on the form I changed bin1->Text = bin[1].ToString() I started with just a few bin variable an didn't use an array so I performed the update with a case statement and hard coded each TextBox update with the name like above. What I want to do know is create a string which hold the name of the TextBox and use this value to change the text in the box. So my question is how do I code the program, so that once I have a string which holds the TextBox name, it will know that this is the TextBox name and now just a string? Here's an example of what I want to do: Old Code ======= bin1->Text = bin1.ToString(); New Code Which Doesn't Work ====================== String* thebin = String::Concat(S"Bin", npod.ToString()); thebin.ToString()->Text = bin[npod].ToString(); Thanks!!!

    - crash occuring when linking to a DLL I created a DLL and compiled it in release mode and under code generation Multithreaded DLL. My exe that calls my DLL is compiled in debug mode and under code generation Debug Multithreaded DLL in my dll the function i'm calling is string IESettings::GetFTPAddrLAN() { return ftpaddrLAN; } In my exe i'm running this code but i keep getting a messagebox "User breakpoint called from code at 0x77f75a58" and it pulls up assembler code. if (IEobj.GetFTPAddrLAN().empty()) In another part of my code i was getting the same crash due to passing a string to a dll function. Apparently when the function exited it died i believe in the deconstructor of the string. I changed it to a char* and everything worked fine. My question is do i have to change my all my classes in my dll to not have strings at all or is there a way to get strings to work from exes across to dlls? Thank you very much in advance for any help you can provide. Kenji Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231775

    - Strange COLEDateTime Compile Issues Hi All, I am experiencing a very odd problem compiling a block of code that uses the GetAsDBTIMESTAMP member function from the COLEDateTime class. The compiler is stating that GetAsDBTIMESTAMP is not a member of the COLEDateTime class even though it clearly is (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vclib/html /_mfc_coledatetime_class_members.asp). Other member functions from the COLEDateTime class seem to be working correctly (see code below). I've included the relevant portions of code and the actual error below. If anyone out there has any clue what is causing the problem, your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! The Code ======== COleDateTime theTime; SYSTEMTIME sysTime; DBTIMESTAMP dbTime; theTime.GetAsSystemTime(sysTime); theTime.GetAsDBTIMESTAMP(dbTime); The Error ======== error C2039: 'GetAsDBTIMESTAMP' : is not a member of 'ATL::COleDateTime' Additional Notes ============= The code include the following libraries, as per MS's instructions on the aforementioned page.

    - How does the linker work? Hi, I'm pretty new to C++ and decided it might be a good idea to create a library of reusable code for me. With Visual Studio .NET 2003 I gave my library 4 different configurations Debug Release DebugUnicode ReleaseUnicode (Debug & Release is the default stuff... DebugUnicode & ReleaseUnicode is the same switched to Unicode characters). Building these 4 configs is pretty easy. I named the resulting libs differently and VS can find them in the lib path somewhere. Now I create a new project and want to use the library. I create the same 4 configs for my project and for some reason VS links to the correct lib file. Is there any information on which lib is chosen by the linker and why? Is there any useful documentation out there that explains the process of linking? (So far I only found documentation on many different options that modify that process in some way, but that's pretty meaningless until I get an idea of that process). I'm targetting Win32.

    - Basic security question Hi there. I'm very familiar with the basic Windows security model in general, but can someone set me straight on what account is used to process a (non-COM) call to a remote machine? For instance, if I call any given API function that takes a machine name argument, such as "RegConnectRegistry()" or "OpenSCManager()" among others, what account does this processing actually occur under on that machine? Also, how am I authenticated? Any links would be appreciated as well. Thanks. Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231750

    - What do you use with Visual Studio 6.0 I'm interested in putting together a web page with some good tips on what one should use with Visual Studio 6.0. Why? For many different reasons, a lot of developers out there still continue to use 6.0 and I imagine that this will continue for a few more years. So, why not try to share the tricks we've all gathered over the years. Some of this might apply to the later VS.NET systems as well. The page is at: http://www.redwoodsoft.com/~dru/tech/msvc.html There are no ads or pop-ups etc. What I want to capture is: *I'm specifically focused on C++ development* What addins/tools do you use? Does XYZ really work? I'm more of an ATL/WTL developer (no MFC). Here are the things I'm looking into: The problems with the STL have gotten me looking at the different options there. STLPort looks good and I'm looking at that since it gets around the DLL requirement. I'm starting to get some of the Boost libs into my projects. (regex, smart ptrs, etc.) I use it at work, and the smart ptrs work well. What stuff doesn't work well with 6.0? On a rainy day, I'm also going to look at the new free Visual Studio C++ 2003 Toolkit. Can that be made to work inside our old 6.0? I have listed my useful info on the site. (What add-ins, etc.) What tools do you use? Is there a great blog/place on the net for 6.0? <Note: I posted this once yesterday, but I'm cross posting today to get more feedback, hopefully positive :-) > Tag: Calling "system" without console window appearing Tag: 231738

    - Set up a member function pointer to another class's public functio Hi all, My appologies for the length of this posting. Problem: I am getting a compiler error "C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'int (__thiscall CDigitalIO::*)(int)' to 'int (__cdecl *)(int)'" for the line "m_fnRunKOMotor = m_digitalIO.SetFirstKOMotorRun;" in Knockout.cpp. Data: // Knockout.cpp: #include "Knockout.h" #include "DigitalIO.h" extern CDigitalIO m_digitalIO; BOOL TestFunction(BOOL state) { return m_digitalIO.SetFirstKOMotorRun(state); } CKnockout::CKnockout(BOOL firstKO) { if (firstKO) { m_fnRunKOMotor = TestFunction; m_fnRunKOMotor = m_digitalIO.SetFirstKOMotorRun; } else { m_fnRunKOMotor = m_digitalIO.SetSecondKOMotorRun; } } void CKnockout::StartKnockout() { m_fnRunKOMotor(TRUE); //or is it: (*m_fnRunKOMotor)(TRUE); } //End Knockout.cpp // Knockout.h: class CKnockout { public: CKnockout(BOOL firstKO=TRUE); virtual ~CKnockout(); public: void StartKnockout(void); private: BOOL (*m_fnRunKOMotor)(BOOL firstKO); }; //End Knockout.h: Background: I read the posting from Dieter Duwe from 6/7/2004 and sure enough I need to choose the funtion to be called at runtime. I started out by storing the value of firstKO passed into the contstructor into a member variable to be used in an if statement by the function StartKO to determine whether m_digitalIO.SetFirstKOMotorRun or m_digitalIO.SetSecondKOMotorRun is called. This solution clutters up the code too much when this test is applied to the 25 other functions not listed here. Second attempt involves "m_fnRunKOMotor = TestFunction;" which is a small compiler successful step to where I want to go. Thus, I have arrived at the question of how to set up a member function pointer to a public function in an external class?

When I call an external program from another program (either MFC standalone
or as a plugin inside another application), then a call to system always
launches a console window. Can I prevent that?

Hello

Try to CreateProcess() or WinExec() directly instead of calling system()
which will use %COMSPEC% env. variable.

If you still want to use system, call something similar to it using
WinExec(cmd, SW_HIDE) where 'cmd' is value of %COMSPEC% with a "/c
params......" parameter
