1) The program are not listening and receving.
2) If the socket is closed the program should try to reconnect to the host every sec until the connection is open.
3) Mutiply this program by 1000 trying to reconnect to the host.
I don't want to have 1000 program sending a packet every sec to verify if the connection is close or open.What wrong with VC++ ?
In VB you can do
if winsock.state = closed then
'winsock.connect
endif
I don't need to do
// Check if the connection is still open
if (Send ( Msg) < 0)
{
//If socket closed then connect to the host
connect;
}
Against this is only about sending (Not listening and receving).

nothing is wrong with vc++, im sure vb makes it in a similar way... and recv with packet size 0 shouldnt send anything!
Don't try it, just do it!

Alexander ,
If I'm following what you said. You mean
when the server is closing the socket , the client is receiving an empty packet.So the function recv will return a code saying that we just got disconnected.
Going to be something like this on the client side
Error = Recv (Msg)
if (error == Disconnected )
{
// Start the pool every sec to request a connection to
// the server
}

Almost. recv() will return like Zero or maybe -1, can't remember. Then you use WSAGetLastError() to get the error number.

This is exactly what i was looking for
int socket = -1;
//****************************************************************
// ManageSocket
// Call this function every sec
//****************************************************************
void ManageSocket ()
{
fd_set ready;
struct timeval to;
//Check if the connection is active
if (socket > 0 )
{
FD_ZERO(&ready);
FD_SET(socket, &ready);
to.tv_sec = 0;
to.tv_usec = 1;
select(socket + 1, &ready, 0, 0, &to)
if (FD_ISSET(sock, &ready)) //If socket ready
{
//Packet with a size of zero = Connection closed
if ( recv ( sock , buf , 1024 , 0) == 0)
{
//Closing the socket
close(socket);
socket = -1;
}
}
}
// When Connection is inactive client will try to reconnect every sec
else if (Socket < 0)
{
//Reconnect to the host
}
}

Hi,
I would like to know how to get a pointer to my CView class from CMainFrame class?

See CFrameWnd::GetActiveView().

i used it and i got an wierd error,
I had to include my CView header file, in my case it is:
#include "CMotionControllerView.h"
and i got 3 error all had to do with the GetDocument() in CView class !!!!!

You'll probably need to forward declare your CDocument derived class in the CMotionControllerView.h file.

ok well that doesn't tell me much... you need to be more descriptive if you want help.  what exact errors, etc?
perhaps you didn't do the casting correctly...?

Using Visual Studio 2002 and i can't find a "Callers Graph" view like the one that is in VC6. Am i a dope or did they leave it out?
-pete
|
|
|
|

it's not called "Callers Graph"!!!
it's called "Call Stack"!!!
have a look at the help files, maybe this term helps...
Don't try it, just do it!

Thanks Alexander, but it's not the same thing. In VC6 there was both a "Callers Graph" and a "Call Graph" that could be viewed starting from a function. They are not actually graphs but rather a tree control. It was part of the "Browser" functionality. Definitely not the "Call Stack" which is the current running context of course. Quite handy actually, it is very sad if it was left out of VC7 "Browser".
P.S. Are you always that easily exited? All those exclamation characters just seem to fly off your keyboard

Hi all
I wrote a simple win32 dll (non MFC) and tried to invoke its functions using run-time Loading (LoadLibrary). When I call GetProcAddress() function it returns me always NULL.
I checked in Dependency Walker tool this dll add saw that in some reason to all exported symbols were added some gibrish. for instance: function Foo() is writen like this: ?Foo@@YAHHH@Z. So when i give GetProcAddress() function name it never finds it 
strange...
Have any ideas why? and how can i sole this?
b.w.: I'm using VC6 and win XP
thanks.

Edit your .def-File like this:
EXPORTS
Foo=?Foo@@YAHHH@Z
There must be some option to partially disable name mangling of exported functions, but I can't find it right now :/

This does not indicate that two DLLS are being used. I presume this is not the case and that there are actually two DLLS, one MFC and the other non-MFC. Yes?
Are the exported functions written in C++? If so, it sounds like name-mangling is at work here.

bad answer greg!!!
i assume u defined your function like this:
void __declspec( dllexport ) foo()
{
...
}
this causes c++ name convention when using a c++ compiler!
to get a c export(which u want), use:
extern "C" void __declspec( dllexport ) foo()
{
...
}
Don't try it, just do it!

Another question: is there any way to use a class defined and exported from a dll loaded by LoadLibrary() ?
Its if you can explain what is a "name convention" it would be grate
thanks.

i askey myself this question many times, it is possible, the half-life engine does it, but i still dont know how...

Yes there is..
In fact, I pondered over this same problem a while back. The idea was that I was supposed to use a class which is completely declared inside a DLL. I only had the header files for reference.
So, here we go, first the actual class, declared with typedef. Do this in a seperate header file:
[code]
typedef class {
public:
// Some initialization functions ?
virtual HRESULT InitModule(void);
virtual HRESULT QuitModule(void);
// A member variable perhaps ?
int iMemberVariable;
} MyExportedClassType;
// Pointer-to-function returning address-of WindowPlugin class
typedef MyExportedClassType* (*GetClass)(void);
[/code]
What ? A pointer-to-function blablabla ? What's that ?
Simple: That is the key to this whole mess: a pointer to a function. Why is it declared there ? Because the same header file is used in the loading application. Just for the sake of simplicity.
Now, when we have the actual class, let's see the DLL exporting it:
[code]
// On global level, declare an instance of the class
MyExportedClassType MyClass;
// At the DllMain, initialize the class' members
int WINAPI DllMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, DWORD dwReason, LPVOID lpVoid)
{
.... Some code here
MyClass.iMemberVariable = 10;
.... More code here
return TRUE
}
// Add an exported function, which returns the address of our class
__declspec(dllexport) MyExportedClassType* ProvideAddressOfClass(void)
{
return &MyClass;
}
[/code]
Lastly, create a module definition file
[code]
LIBRARY
EXPORTS
ProvideAddressOfClass @1
[/code]
Ok, now the DLL is ready, go compile it. Next up, the loading application:
[code]
// We must include the typedef declaration
#include "myclasstypedef.h"
HDLL hDll;
// See here: let's create a pointer-to-function which returns a class' address.. Remember, we exported this type of function from the DLL !
GetClass MyClassProvider;
// A pointer to our class type
MyExportedClassType* lpImportedClass;
// Your main function
int main(void)
{
.... Some code ?
// Load module
hDll = LoadLibrary(ModuleName[iCount]);
// Resolve address of exported function
MyClassProvider = (GetClass)GetProcAddress(hDLL, "ProvideAddress");
// Get address of class within the DLL, using the exported function
lpImportedClass = MyClassProvider();
// Let's use it !
lpImportedClass->iMemberVariable = 1;
.... Some more code
// Remember to unload the library !
UnloadLibrary(hDll);
// End application
return 0;
}
[/code]
Seems difficult ? Well, it really isn't.. To sum it all up programmer-wise:
1. Create a class using typedef
2. Create a function which returns the address of your class
3. Export this function in the DLL with __declspec AND .def file
4. Create a typedef for 'pointer-to-function' of the address-provider function
5. Load the DLL in another application
6. Get the address of the exported function
7. Use the function to get the address of the class
8. Use the class
9. NULLify pointers, unload the DLL etc clean-up work
10. Quit and get some sleep
I have created an example of this, an application which actually creates it's main window in a seperate DLL, and adds event handlers to this window's procedure in another DLL. You can download the entire workspace (3 projects: WinDLL, InpDLL, WinLoader) from here.
Enjoy !

[EDIT]I'm using VS6[/EDIT]
This is an obscure problem: I'm using an edit control labeled IDC_EDIT2 in a dialog-based app. To restrict the length of the content to 8, I use the following function that is called whenever the content changes:
void CFileCryptDlg::OnChangeEdit2()
{
char strPassword[10];
if(GetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT2,strPassword,10)>8)
{
strPassword[8]='\0';
SetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT2,strPassword);
}
}
It works fine, except for one small problem: till I type the 8th character, everything's as expected. But when the 9th character is typed, the cursor moves back to the first location in the edit box. How do I retain the cursor position?
Thanks,
Vikram.
