    - VC++.2005 locally defined class's member functions generate LNK2005 Hi Anyone, I found following strange problem writing a C++ code in VS.2005. Say we have a class A having inside its scope locally defined function a() (by default it should have inline attribute AFAIK). Then inside a() I define locally class B with function b(). Finally if the header file is included in more than one cpp files I get linker error LNK2005 that B::b() has multiple definitions. Now If I move B outside the scope of a() to the scope of A then the problem is gone. Is that proper behavior of the compiler/linker according to C++ standard or a bug? Are the functions defined in inside local classes considered inline as well by default? Best regards, B. Tag: Problem with ShellExecute Tag: 293145

    - symbols in static libraries HI, I have an application that look like app.exe depends static lib 1 and static lib 2 static lib 2 depends on static lib 1 in static lib 1, I have one header file and one cpp file header: extern const int kNotUsed; cpp: const int kNotUsed = -1; The weird thing is that I can use kNotUsed in my app.exe. However, I can NOT use kNotUsed from static lib 2. Also, I used dumpbin /symbols StaticLib1.lib and I could NOT find kNotUsed. Thus, my questions are 1. why can I use kNotUsed from app but not from static lib2? 2. if kNotUsed is not in the symbols, how can app.exe use it? I tried to reproduce the problem in a dummy project and I could NOT reproduce it. not sure what is wrong. totally lost. Thank you for any advices, Tag: Problem with ShellExecute Tag: 293057

    - Getting localized name folder Hello all, Q: How can I het localized name of any specific folder. (Mainly want this for WinVista, aulthough I want it to work for lower version as well) eg: char* getLocalizedName(char* UserPath){ char *LocalizedName; ..... ..... ..... return LocalizedName; } Examples of input Char *, can be any from following c:\ c:\Programe Files c:\MyFolder c:\MyFolder\MyFolder1\MyFolder2\MyFolder3\MyFolder4\MyFolder5 Till now I have done RnD with IShellFolder Methods, result of various RnD with the help of Groups-MSDN-blogs- HelpLinks..... Is that I need to start with *SHGetDesktopFolder* & then I can reach to Special Folders defined with CSIDL via *SHGetSpecialFolderLocation* Then use *GetDisplayNameOf* function to get the localized name My issue is I need to check specific path provided by user, does this path has any localized name? If Yes, return the Localized name In No, return the same folder name back If any one can provide any guidence on how can I work arround this *Special Special Path provided by user* Any clue will be helpful....

    - dialog.domodal causes crash I have an application that's worked well for two years. Recently I added some code (a few functions and 2 calls to a dll) and now the program crashes. Debug build is OK, Release build crashes and displays the MS "MFC Application has encountered a problem". I've put MessageBox'es at different points to identify where the crash happens, and it seems to be at a call to mydialog.DoModal. The MessageBox that I put in OnInitDialog doesn't display before the crash. This dialog is not new, it's been there all along. How would I go about tracking something like this down?

    - CStringArray, CArray and CMap objects have memory leak? Hi All, I am using CStringArray object in VC++ 6.0 application. Trying to release this object by .RemoveAll() function. But, it is decreasing the "VM Size" from task manager. And, I confirmed this with memory leak tool. The "VM Size" after loading all the CString objects into CStringArray is 17MB. After RemoveAll() called, it decreases just 1MB. And, same for CArray and CMap objects also. How to deallocate them successfully? All objects are member variables of class. There is no global objects. What is the difference between "Mem Usage" and "VM Size" in task manager? If I minimize the application, "Mem Usage" decreases to 1MB from 20 MB. But, "VM Size" is not decreasing. Can anybody clear this doubt. Please suggest. Thanks in advance. Regards, Tag: Problem with ShellExecute Tag: 292964

    - calling convention stdcalll and cdecl call Hello everyone, Both stdcall and cdecl calling convention could support variable input parameters? Is that correct?

BTW: I have this question because I have something in mind that only one of them supports variable number of parameters, but after reading assembly language code, I think both of them are able to support this feature? thanks in advance, George Tag: Problem with ShellExecute Tag: 292957

How could OS identify if a process is terminated or not? I am suffering a problem when write event log returns 0x80004005 error in my own code when system is reboot (I monitor this reboot in Event View), I think OS should always wait for process to complete (e.g. write event log operation) before stops event log services and reboot?

    - link gui's Hello all. I'm new to C++ (took a C++ class at college a few years back-2001, and am just returning to update console appl. I created back then. I got that to work last night, finally), and want to update a console application to a full-blown windows program. I'm presently using MS Visual Studio C++ Express 2008. I've already "created" my gui's using the drag/drop utility in Express. My initial question is where can I read up on how to "link" all my forms to: 1- my base code. 2- I have three functions, which will use three (one form each) forms. So I need to link the forms back to my main "intro." form. I'll admit right now I'd like to minimze the amount of frustration I'll have, but am willing to take the time to do what I must to have a fully-working windows program.

    - Why does MFC call _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks ?!? (I think this applies to mfc & C++ & debugging, hence the 3 NG) OK, maybe this'll be some kind of rant, but I really don't get it and it would really be nice to know what the rationale behind the "built-in" memory leak detection of MFC is, when any user could provide it on his own without false memory leaks ... Explanation: The Run-Time Library provides for Debug Routines that (among other things) allow reporting of memory-leaks. It is possible to enable *automatic* reporting for the CRT by calling the function _CrtSetDbgFlag(...) with the _CRTDBG_LEAK_CHECK_DF flag. If you choose to enable this *automatic* check in your C++ program, the CRT will happily (and most correctly) report all left-over memory via _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks *after* basically all non-system DLLs have been unloaded. Enter MFC: For reasons unknown to me (but probably historical or some such $%&$) /if/ your Application links against the MFC DLL /then/ within the d'tor of a class called _AFX_DEBUG_STATE (atlmfc/src/mfc/dumpinit.cpp, ln 123) MFC will call _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks and afterwards disable the reporting on process-end: ################### _AFX_DEBUG_STATE::~_AFX_DEBUG_STATE() { #ifndef _AFX_NO_DEBUG_CRT _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks(); int nOldState = _CrtSetDbgFlag(_CRTDBG_REPORT_FLAG); _CrtSetDbgFlag(nOldState & ~_CRTDBG_LEAK_CHECK_DF); ASSERT(_CrtSetReportHook2(_CRT_RPTHOOK_REMOVE,_AfxCrtReportHook) != -1); _CrtSetDumpClient(pfnOldCrtDumpClient); #endif // _AFX_NO_DEBUG_CRT } ################### Not only is this completely unnecessary, as you could (if you so wished) tell the CRT to dump it on process end - oh no! It is quite horrible if you use a 3rd party C++ DLL that happens to hold memory in global static objects that will only be destroyed when this DLL is unloaded and does *not* link against MFC. That is because in all my test cases any user-supplied DLL (project dependency, via Linker-Input:lib) is always unloaded *after* the MFC-DLL (mfc80ud.dll in my case). In this scenario the stupid call of _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks from the MFC cleanup code will report all this memory as leaks, even though it *will* be cleaned up --- it just happens that the code had the cheek to not use MFC. * You can't work around it, as you cannot change DLL (static) load/unload order. * You can't work around it, as you cannot use a C++ DLL with LoadLibrary/FreeLibrary. * You can't work around it, as you cannot tell MFC not to report this false memleaks and use the CRT mechanism instead. * You can't work around it, as your main application needs to use MFC. * You can't work around it, as the 3rd party DLL cannot, in general, be made to link against MFC (thereby forcing a later unload of mfc80ud.dll) * You can't even ignore the MFC dump and additionally use the CRT dump as MFC will switch it off after it dumped! Bah! So ... I'm stuck with a program that dumps 2000 memory leaks at MFC-cleanup that are false and will obscure any real (and possibly problematic) memleaks I would like to find ... It would be interesting to hear from someone who knows a rational behind the MFC code or has some general thoughts how to get around it or to hear why I'm completely mistaken :) cheers, Martin Tag: Problem with ShellExecute Tag: 292832

    - Regarding x86 and Any CPU....Badimageformat exception? Hi guys, I am not sure what the Project platform configurations in VS 2005 mean and I was wondering if any of you could give me an explanation. Basically..what does x86 mean? How is it different from "Any CPU"? What does " Create New Solution Plaforms" checkbox mean? If I have multiple projects can i set some projects as "x86" and others as "Any CPU" if they depend on each other? I basically need this as i am trying to run my 32bit application on a 64bit machine...and I get the System.BadImageformat Exception...which I believe has to do with these configurations. Currently all my projects are in "Any CPU". Thanks, for your help guys,... Tag: Problem with ShellExecute Tag: 292796

    - VC++2008: STL access violation depending on runtime library being Hello We encountered a strange access violation in an application we're working on. I managed to distill the problem down to a dozen lines of code and find the cause, which lies in the choice of runtime library, not in the code itself. The bug, if it indeed is a bug, is reproduceable. Following are steps to reproduce the problem in VC++2008. We haven't tried reproducing it under an older development environment yet. 1. Create a new empty Win32 Console Application project 2. Add a new CPP file to the project and paste the following code: #include <sstream> struct Test { ~Test () { std::stringstream s1; } } G_Test; int main () { std::stringstream s2; } 3. Compile and run: should work 4. Open the project's properties, change the runtime lib from multithreaded debug DLL (the default in VC++2008) to multithreaded debug. So, from /MDd to /MTd. 5. Compile and run: you should get an access violation resulting from Line 6 of my example (the instanciation of s1). 6. Comment out Line 11 (the instanciation of s2), recompile and run: no more access violation. The access violation happens during the destruction of G_Test, in ~Test, during the construction of s1. If you look at the call stack, you'll notice the stringstream constructor makes a call that ends up resulting in an access violation. The actual line of code that causes the violation is in 'xlocale', and depends on the build (debug or release) and the runtime (debug or release); it's always a call to 'widen', 'do_widen', or something similar. When looking at the assembly, the application seems to be trying to read a function's address from an invalid location (read access violation) just prior to attempting to call that address. We're thinking that something in the STL, or in Microsoft's implementation of the STL in some of the VC++2008 runtimes, gives us an undefined behavior when trying to instanciate a stream after an application returns, but before the globals run out of scope (so basically in the app's exit/doexit, after main() returns). The error depends on whether or not another stream has been instanciated before the app's termination or not (as demonstrated by commenting out the instanciation of 's2' in my example). It would seem that the non-DLL runtimes are trying to make a call to a function that has been deaddressed, but the DLL runtimes make the call properly. It's an easy enough problem for us to work around, but I'd like to know if this is expected behavior coming from the STL in VC++2008, and if I properly understood the cause of the problem. We do have a valid reason for using a global in our application (it's a singleton instance of our logging system), and we do know how to work around it (make sure it gets deleted before our WinMain returns), but I wanted to bring up this issue here in case it's an actual bug in VC++2008, and not an unexpected behavior resulting from our misuse of the STL. Maybe the STL cannot be used after an application's main function returns? (I'm not sure if the STL has startup and cleanup code). I'd appreciate any input -- apologies for the long post!

    - Any problems expected in Multiple inheritance with template class ? Platform : VisualC++, Windows XP , VisualStudio2005 Hello, We need to provide OLEDB functionality in our application. In order to provide certain generalisation we need our oledb classes to be multiply inherited from one of our abstract base classes as well. Following is the kind of coding done. 1) class CABSSet //Our application's Abstract base class 2) template <class TAccessor, template <typename T> class TRowset = CRowset> class CABSOleDbSet : public CABSSet, public CCommand<TAccessor, TRowset>//Our OLEDB abstract base class 3) class CMyBaseSet //Abstract base class for the MyTable 4) For every new derived oledb class for the database tables we plan to do class CMyOleDBSet: public CMyBaseSet, public CABSOleDbSet<CAccessor<CMyOleDbAccessor>, CRowset > 1) Is there any known problem w.r.t multiple inheritance in the above fashion when needing use oledb interfaces of CCommand in the derived class CMyOleDBSet especially related to the rowsets fetched? 2) In general is there any known issue in multiple inheriting from a template and a simple class as specified above?

Enclose file name in quotes, as in "\"C:\\Documents and
Settings\\pic.jpg\"" . Just as you would do when typing command line by
hand.
