    - How to convert CStringA which contains embedded NULL chars into a Hi All, The variable str was defined as CStringA type, and it contains 57 chars with embedded NULL chars copied from some memory buffer, now I want to convert it into a BSTR string using the following statements: 1) int nLen = str.GetLength(); 2) int nChars = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, NULL, str, nLen, NULL, NULL); 3) bstr = SysAllocStringLen(NULL, nChars); 4) MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, NULL, str, nLen, bstr, nChars); at line#1 I got nLen 57, but at line#2, I got nChars 50, why nChars should not be 57? Am I doing something wrong? PS: The str is "50 4b 01 02 14 00 14 00 02 00 08 00 60 8b 16 33 00 00 60 8b ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 bb b0 fb c2 ee 9d 8f 0e de 04 00 00" TIA Tag: How can I shorten the time of the linking process Tag: 251843

    - GetAdaptersAddresses problem Hello, All! Why when I call the GetAdaptersAddresses function it does not return any IP addresses as it should? Because I need both IP address and the connection name (not adapter name), I have to use the GetAdaptersAddresses function along with the GetAdaptersInfo function to get all I need. --- With the best regards, Mahoney.

    - Problem with threads calling a function Hi all, I'm developing a program in C++ (pure API style, no MFC) and seem to have the following issue with multithreading: The program is performing extensive calculations which take a long time, they also can produce messages. On multiprocessormachines, I start several threads (up to the amount of processors in the system) which work on the problem in parallel. My problem however comes in when one of the threads tries to log an event with my own event log (note this has nothing to do with the windows eventlog). My eventlog is a simple procedure which just writes some text and a timestamp into a listview on the main window of the application: void Log_Event(char* cMessage, int iCat) { LVITEM lvi; SYSTEMTIME st; int iSize; TCHAR* cTime; TCHAR* cDate; TCHAR* cBuf; //get the current date and time GetLocalTime(&st); //and format it according to the user preferences (works internationally, even in retro america) iSize = GetDateFormat(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, 0, &st, NULL, NULL, 0); cDate = (TCHAR *) calloc(iSize, sizeof(TCHAR)); GetDateFormat(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, 0, &st, NULL, cDate, iSize); iSize = GetTimeFormat(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, 0, &st, NULL, NULL, 0); cTime = (TCHAR *) calloc(iSize, sizeof(TCHAR)); GetTimeFormat(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, 0, &st, NULL, cTime, iSize); cBuf = (TCHAR *) calloc(strlen(cDate) + strlen(cTime) + 4, sizeof(TCHAR)); strcat(cBuf, cDate); strcat(cBuf, " "); strcat(cBuf, cTime); lvi.mask = LVIF_TEXT | LVIF_PARAM | LVIF_IMAGE; lvi.iItem = 0; lvi.iImage = iCat; lvi.iSubItem = 0; lvi.pszText = NULL; ListView_InsertItem(GetDlgItem(ghWnd, IDC_LV_EVENTLOG), &lvi); ListView_SetItemText(GetDlgItem(ghWnd, IDC_LV_EVENTLOG), 0, 1, cBuf); ListView_SetItemText(GetDlgItem(ghWnd, IDC_LV_EVENTLOG), 0, 2, cMessage); free(cTime); cTime = 0; free(cDate); cDate = 0; free(cBuf); cBuf = 0; } In order to synchronize access to the Event_Log function, I have a critical section object. This is how the threads are calling the function: ... EnterCriticalSection(&csLogEvent); Log_Event(cBuf, LE_WARNING); LeaveCriticalSection(&csLogEvent); ... The problem now appears to be that the Event_Log functions simply hangs on the line where it does the Listview_InsertItem. That sends all threads to a grinding halt, even those that are not logging any events. It also stops of there is only one worker thread, thus precluding any synchronization issues (in my opinon?). I should also note that the Event_Log function worked properly before I implemented the multithreaded option. I'm really stuck here, any help is greatly appreciated!

    - Lexical Parser Hi, I am building a lexical parser, But I used recursive file opening like this main () { ProcessFile(filename); } and somewhere in between ParseFile() { GetFileName(&FileName); // branching statement, So if FileName is necessary to be recursively opened, the following statement gets executed ProcessFile (FileName); } ProcessFile (char *filename) { f = fopen (filename...); // when in recursion, this returns null ParseFile(); } Is this "Cross-edge" Possible?

    - How to access the source of a copied object I want to have a reference to the source object in the receiving object after a copy (Copy ctr or assignment). I dont want the receiving object to be able to modify contents in the copied object. How should i do this? Here is my first stab at a solution, but its not working. Its the dynamic downcast from Base* to SubA* that fails when i run. I want to use a dynamic cast since i sometimes need to do a runtime check to see if an object is if a certain type. I need to do a downcast to be able to check the values of the original (source) object. So how can i have access to the source object, use it as the downcasted subtype ,and restrict that access to be read-only. class Base { public: Base() : sourceObj(NULL) {} virtual ~Base() {} Base(const Base& other) { *this = other } Base& operator=(const Base& other) { sourceObj = &other; return *this; } protected: const Base* sourceObj; } class SubA : Base { public: SubA() : Base() {} ~SubA() {} SubA(const SubA& other) : Base(other) {} int anAttribute; void checkAttributeOfSource() { // Line below casts an error when run in MS VC++ .NET SubA* a = dynamic_cast<SubA*>(sourceObj); if (a->anAttribute = 1) { // do something } } } // ---- Main snippet -------- Base* aBase = new SubA(); // Line below casts an error when run in MS VC++ .NET SubA* aSub = dynamic_cast<SubA*>(aBase); // --- Scenario B SubA a1.readFromdatabase(); SubA a2(a1); a2.ReadFromClient(); // Here i want to be able to query values in a1 without modifying a1 a2.CompareMeTosourceObject(); Tag: How can I shorten the time of the linking process Tag: 251828

    - Defining template class member functions in a separate module I have been having link problems (see my previous post) and I got around to trying one by one, different combinations since I absolutely could not figure out why things weren't working. I have done exactly the same type of thing before and it worked like a charm! I got around to wondering finally if it could be a problem with the way I have organized things. Let's assume a template class declaration as follows: template<typename DeallocType> class DefaultDeallocator : public virtual Deallocator<DeallocType> { public: DefaultDeallocator(); virtual ~DefaultDeallocator(); virtual void Delete(DeallocType*); virtual void DeleteObjectArray(DeallocType*); virtual void DeletePointerArray(DeallocType**, unsigned long); }; This is in a header called DefaultDeallocator.h (duh! :) I have the definition in a module called DefaultDeallocator.cpp. template<typename DeallocType> DefaultDeallocator<DeallocType>::DefaultDeallocator() { } template<typename DeallocType> DefaultDeallocator<DeallocType>::~DefaultDeallocator() { } template<typename DeallocType> void DefaultDeallocator<DeallocType>::Delete(DeallocType* obj) { if(NULL != obj) { delete obj; } } template<typename DeallocType> void DefaultDeallocator<DeallocType> ::DeleteObjectArray(DeallocType* array) { if(NULL != array) { delete[] array; } } template<typename DeallocType> void DefaultDeallocator<DeallocType> ::DeletePointerArray(DeallocType** ptrarray, unsigned long num) { if(NULL != ptrarray && num > 0) { for(unsigned long i = 0; i < num; ++i) { delete ptrarray[i]; } } } Could it be that because the definition is in a module as opposed to being completely in the header itself, that I am getting unresolved external link problems. Here are my errors: Creating library Debug/SmartPointer2.lib and object Debug/SmartPointer2.exp Test.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual __thiscall MCMDocumentCache::DefaultDeallocator<class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter>::~DefaultDeallocator<class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter>(void)" (??1?$DefaultDeallocator@VReferenceCounter@MCMDocumentCache@@@MCMDocumentCache@@UAE@XZ) referenced in function "void __cdecl Test_Deallocator_Construction(void)" (?Test_Deallocator_Construction@@YAXXZ) Test.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall MCMDocumentCache::DefaultDeallocator<class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter>::DefaultDeallocator<class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter>(void)" (??0?$DefaultDeallocator@VReferenceCounter@MCMDocumentCache@@@MCMDocumentCache@@QAE@XZ) referenced in function "void __cdecl Test_Deallocator_Construction(void)" (?Test_Deallocator_Construction@@YAXXZ) Test.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual void __thiscall MCMDocumentCache::DefaultDeallocator<class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter>::Delete(class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter *)" (?Delete@?$DefaultDeallocator@VReferenceCounter@MCMDocumentCache@@@MCMDocumentCache@@UAEXPAVReferenceCounter@2@@Z) referenced in function "void __cdecl Test_Deallocator_Delete(void)" (?Test_Deallocator_Delete@@YAXXZ) Test.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual void __thiscall MCMDocumentCache::DefaultDeallocator<class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter>::DeleteObjectArray(class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter *)" (?DeleteObjectArray@?$DefaultDeallocator@VReferenceCounter@MCMDocumentCache@@@MCMDocumentCache@@UAEXPAVReferenceCounter@2@@Z) referenced in function "void __cdecl Test_Deallocator_DeleteObjectArray(void)" (?Test_Deallocator_DeleteObjectArray@@YAXXZ) Test.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual void __thiscall MCMDocumentCache::DefaultDeallocator<class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter>::DeletePointerArray(class MCMDocumentCache::ReferenceCounter * *,unsigned long)" (?DeletePointerArray@?$DefaultDeallocator@VReferenceCounter@MCMDocumentCache@@@MCMDocumentCache@@UAEXPAPAVReferenceCounter@2@K@Z) referenced in function "void __cdecl Test_Deallocator_DeletePointerArray(void)" (?Test_Deallocator_DeletePointerArray@@YAXXZ) Debug/SmartPointer2.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 5 unresolved externals If my supposition is correct, that kind of seems funny.

    - Code compiles with VS2003 but not eVC4 Hi, The following code compiles fine with VS 2003 but not with eVC4 SP4. I am not sure VS.NET is right since the situation is kind of ambiguous. Basically, we have a MultiEar class derive "twice" from the same IListener interface - we do that by aliasing the interface with AListener and BListener. Two separate vtables should be produced, but... eVC4 does not seem to think so. Here is the code: // interiorListeners.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application. // /* this test investigates what happens when you need to have multiple implementations of a base class in a derived class. Questions: Is this legal C++? Is the intent of the syntax clear? Should it work on all C++ compilers? */ #include "stdafx.h" /** first declare a listener interface */ class IListener { public: virtual void OnEvent(const char * name, int id)=0; }; /* a class we can listen too */ class EventSource { public: EventSource(const char * name) : m_name(name) { m_listener = NULL; } void fireEvent(int id) { if (m_listener) m_listener->OnEvent(m_name, id); } void addListener(IListener* listener) { m_listener = listener; } private: IListener* m_listener; const char * m_name; }; /* derived classes used to force the child to have specific implementations for both versions of listener */ class AListener : public IListener { // implement IListener virtual void OnEvent(const char * name, int id)=0; }; class BListener : public IListener { // implement IListener virtual void OnEvent(const char * name, int id)=0; }; /* this class wishes to support both listeners with different implementations however the implementations need to be in the class scope in order to access member vars without recourse to parent pointers and the like. */ class MultiEar : public AListener, BListener { public: MultiEar() : a(_T("EventSource A")) , b(_T("EventSource B")) { m_int = 0; } //* This code compiles and works ok on MSVC.NET but not on EVC4. // implement IListener void AListener::OnEvent(const char * name, int id) { printf(_T("%s %d AListener OnEvent(%s, %d)\n"), ClassName(), m_int, name, id); m_int++; } // implement IListener void BListener::OnEvent(const char * name, int id) { printf(_T("%s %d BListener OnEvent(%s, %d)\n"), ClassName(), m_int, name, id); m_int++; } void Test() { a.addListener((AListener*)this); b.addListener((BListener*)this); a.fireEvent(1); a.fireEvent(2); b.fireEvent(1); b.fireEvent(2); } private: EventSource a, b; const char * ClassName() { return _T("MultiEar") ; } int m_int; }; int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { printf(_T("testing interior listener classes.\n")); // create the MultiEar MultiEar multiEar; multiEar.Test(); return 0; } /** expected output testing interior listener classes. MultiEar 0 AListener OnEvent(EventSource A, 1) MultiEar 1 AListener OnEvent(EventSource A, 2) MultiEar 2 BListener OnEvent(EventSource B, 1) MultiEar 3 BListener OnEvent(EventSource B, 2) */ Any idea?

    - Continuous KillTimer or SetTimer calls hi, am using the SetTimer function and would like to know what happens when i use two continuous SetTimer calls or KillTimer calls on the same handle?? eg. i define a timer: SetTimer with an ID, say ID1. define it again with the same id, ID1. According to documentation, this should just reset the timer. Does it actually do taht? But what would happen if i try to do the same with KillTimer?? Kill ID1 and then again call KillTimer with ID1. thanx!! Tag: How can I shorten the time of the linking process Tag: 251811

    - Problems with New PSDK samples Use Hi guys! I really need your help . I 'm working with VC++7, PLATFORM SDK (WinSVR 2003 sp1, Apr 2005 ver), and DirectX 9.0(Update aug2005). I'm trying to build the PLGTERM (TAPI plugg term )sample application. I built all the Directshow samples needed : strmbase.lib (BaseClasses sample) , MSPBaseSample.lib (MSPBase sample ). Since Samples in the last PSDK version are not shipped with projects files , I used makefiles provided by Microsoft. I had no problems building MSPBase and BaseClasses samples. But I have no success building the last one : Pluggable Terminal (tapi 3). Since 2 days I trying to resolve these errors . Can you suggest me some solutions?

My app loads the initial instance of the DLL and calls an initialize function to start the hook etc. This hook is a system wide hook and can attach to all sorts of window (not belonging to my app).

    - Exporting C++ Classes from a Static Library and from a DLL I am not sure if this OT, but I will go ahead and post.

    - Do I need synchronisation for 1 writer, 1 reader thread? Hi all, I have a console C++ app (VC++ 6.0, WIN XP x64) with 1 worker thread created with _beginthreadex in addition to the main thread of execution (so 2 threads). The worker thread should carry on until the main thread says stop. At the moment I have implemented this by having the main thread set a bool visible to both threads to true (it is initialised to false at startup). The worker thread simply checks the value of this bool on each iteration of it's loop and keeps going until it is true. Then, the worker thread cleans up after itself and returns. Here is some pseudoish code: bool stopThread = false; bool threadStopped = false; int main (void) { createThread(); // do stuff for a while stopThread = true; while (threadStopped == false) { // wait }; // do other stuff and exit } void thread(void) { while (stopThread == false) { // do stuff } // cleanup threadStopped = true; return; } As far as I can see this should be fine and perfectly safe (i.e. I do not need any synchronisation in terms of critical sections, mutexes, semaphores, events etc..) because each variable is only written by one thread. Am I right? Is there a better way with better style etc that isn't overkill? Many thanks for your time, Dave Tag: How can I shorten the time of the linking process Tag: 251731

    - Multi-thread testing platform What is the best 1-off purchase platform to test multi-threaded code? Hyperthreaded, Dual Core Dual Processor E.g. most customers using our product on a "multi-processor" platform will be running a Hyperthreaded processor, a few may be using dual core processors - most will _not_ have a dual processor setup (except perhaps if running via a terminal services server). The way I see it is to get the worst-case-scenario (i.e. a dual processor), but I need to check first that there are unlikely to be scenarios where an error would only show itself on Hyperthreaded processor for some reason. (I guess I'll be varying the background load during testing.) At the moment, I'm just firing off a second thread to do some DX sound generation (on-the-fly waveform generation) - beeps and such. Later, I'll be firing off threads to read and write to the serial port and perhaps other things too. No high-load server stuff, just the basic one or two worker threads that may or may not need sychcronisation with the main program. Thanks.

    - initializing private static array Hi gang! This is more of a preference issue than a syntax or C++ standards question. I have a class that has a private static array as a data member. I know that in the source file for the class, one would normally initialize all the static data members prior to any operation definitions. However, with arrays, the compiler thinks that you are redefining the length of the static array (when specifying a specific index). I can solve this by "modifying" (as opposed to initializing) the array inside the class constructor. I know this isn't usually considered "good practice" since instantiation of each object of the class will execute useless code (the 1st object will actually modify the data member, all other instantiations will simply reset the values to what's already stored). What's the best way to initialize static arrays? Oh, and I understand that the array will already be initialized to all zero's, but I'd like to initialize it to something else (it's actually a private static const array). Thanks as always!

Hi!

I created a Dll project using visual c++ 6 (no mfc).
When I'm linking my project (after the compilation step) on "debug
version", (the "Link Incrementally" option is enabled") it take 5-10
seconds. (The size of the output Dll is ~ 8mb ).

When I'm changing the project mode to "Release version", the linking
process becomes very slow ( it takes ~20 minutes!!! and sometimes even
more - size is ~ 3.5 mb ). When I'm enabling the "Link Incrementally"
it returns to take only 5 to 10 seconds...

I tried to anylise the linking process by using "Print Progress
Messages" option, but I didn't understand from it.
I saw it hangs for ~10 minutes before it prints this:

Selected symbol:
