IOCP - not just for sockets, they can be used with any IFS based HANDLE e.g. sockets, files, pipes, ...

The idea that I can be presented with a problem, set out to logically solve it with the tools at hand, and wind up with a program that could not be legally used because someone else followed the same logical steps some years ago and filed for a patent on it is horrifying.

Can someone please post the code (or an outline) for creating a UDP Server, just want the data to be transmitted even when the client is down - is that possible.
I get a bit confused with the calls.
Andy.

You mean like the MFC/C++ article here on CodeProject titled "A simple UDP time server and client for beginners"?
No, no one can do that.

Hello comunity,
is it posible to protect environment variable in multithreaded application,
to ensure that only one thread can use this variable, for manipulations!
I want to protect one vector to be sure that only one thread can remove item from this vector?
I think on something like this:
//
LockVector;
DeleteItemFromVector;
UnlocVector;
From here allow all access to my vector! :->
thanks in advance

Have you considered a synchronization object such as a critical section or a mutex?

Hello,
thanks for reply,yes i use critical section, but only in one function,
is it posible to protect one variable programwide,
so wenn one function use vector other functions have to wait until this vector is free?
Example:
FunktionOne() // use vector
FunktionTwo() // must wait because vector is in use by FunktionOne()
Is that posible or i want to much?
with best regards
termal

That almost sounds like an event.

Absolutely. The standard answer, is a mutex. Mutual exclusion prevents anything other than one thread from executing through a region of code. A primary way is with CriticalSections. However, it is important to note that you will be accessing the region of code in linear space. That is, you will reduce the code execution for that task to single threaded operation, so you want to make sure it is not your primary occupation of time.
There are other ways, google lock-free algorithms. A good CAS or CAS2 will give you the base structure to build a non-blocking synchronization system, but you will have to think on it. Qt uses something called "implicit sharing" meaning you want to share read access with all threads all the time, but you want to lock it for writing.
You can also use record locking, if you understand how to use a CAS or CAS2 step properly which will allow you to add/change a single vector item and block that one item from reading until the update step is completed, but allow all other reads to all other vector items to continue without delays.
You can also just pull down Intel's thread building blocks and use their threadsafe vector and be done with it all.  http://www.threadingbuildingblocks.org/[^]

Found this article
<ahref="http: www.codeproject.com="" useritems="" codecave.asp#introduction0"="">http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/codecave.asp#Introduction0[^]
Which had me very excited because I thought it was the answer to my problem.
But soon I realized I just dont have the skill to implement it.
I am lookin (Praying) for someone to take pity on me and show me how to do it or do it for me (PLEASE).
Here are the details (Sry its lenghty).
I co-own a gaming Halo clan.
We operate 16 dedicated online servers.
When naming the servers we are permited 64 spaces.
Thru time people have found that by using Alt Codes in the game name they can move to the top of the online listing as it precedes the alpha numerical listing.
Now some people have found a way to circumvent that as well. By deleteinfg the naming of the server in the .ini file the games .exe file defaults to a generic "HALO" nameing. Then by hex editing that loacation they can rename the server.
The problem in this method is that we are now limited to onlt 26 spaces for naming. I need more. The names and descriptions of our serves are about 40 spaces.
I have been able to identify the starting and ending byte of the location in the .exe file. There is alos plenty of unused space in the program. I was hoping to add a call and return to one of those locations so I can store the longer name.
won't someone please help me?

Well I have exahusted all the options I have. If you have any other ideas please feel free to share them with me.
I might be wrong but I assume if a person knew how to do this it would not be a difficult project.

I included Window Mouse Hook in my app, when compiled I get this:
"error C2065: 'WH_MOUSE_LL' : undeclared identifier"
???
g_hMouseHook = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_MOUSE_LL,MouseProc,GetModuleHandle(NULL),0);

Did you bother looking in winuser.h for why:
#if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0400)
#define WH_KEYBOARD_LL 13
#define WH_MOUSE_LL 14
#endif // (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0400)

Hi all,
I want to convert my CString string/variable into lowercase characters....Is there any API for doing so.........
thanks in advance
|
|
|
|
|
why?
dont you know about str.MakeLower(); function,
it is as simple as that.
if that is not working for you,
then i can suggest something else.

i m working in mfc so this function is not available there
|
|
|
|

CString is from MFC.
so follow this.
CString str;
str="HELLO";
str.MakeLower();
now this should work.
