That was lame - it wasn't Microsoft interface at all. 
Sorry.

Hehe. I would suggest a Lame forum that we could move threads to but it would have the effect of emptying all the other forums.

how are you using it? What is the source you use to obtain it?
Member 2845784 wrote: It's a real mystery why there's no information about this interface. I'm confused..
There is a fairly substantial history of MS implementing undocumented features. They may do this to use these features internally but do not intend to support them in the development platform.

Hi evrybody.
I 'm looking for an C++ implementation of cache management functionality.
Do you have a suggestion. Any model or pattern is acceptable.

The simplest thing for a simple object cache to do is just allocate objects en masse and manage them in a collection. For example, if your application deals with a lot of std::string objects, you can allocate up a bunch of them (e.g. 250) at startup, throw them on a std::stack and then pop them off the stack as required. If you exhaust the stack, allocate another 250 of them and put them on the stack.
When done with an object, "free" it by putting it back on the stack so that something else can use it.
In an active, stable system, the buffers of the string objects will stabilize over time by growing to a general size and then staying there, and multiple threads will be able to take advantage of locality with the objects.
This results in less overall allocations and existing allocations, both for the strings and their buffers, due to reuse instead of destruction and re-creation/re-allocation.
In applications that abuse string objects, you can see a decent performance improvement at the expense greater memory usage. (Although as I said, the memory usage stablizes over time.)
This approach also works well in threadpool situations where you have multiple worker threads waiting on an IOCPs -- the "context object" that is thrown to the pool of worker threads can come from a collection of reused objects which minimizes the overhead of context management. Same thing with data buffers, etc.
Performance can be further improved by allocating larger blocks of memory and then instantiating objects in that block of memory -- see placement new for more information. This further reduces the memory management your application needs to make, and "memory management" == time.
Peace!

Thanks for the interesting answer.
I already found what I wanted : Poco C++ library (has a lot of cache templates with diiferent strategies for object deletion).
(also will work in the context of an IOCP server where the pool of threads can act concurrently on the inner data that behind the context data passed to the queue, without the pbm of values corruption).
I have a big issue with performance and I try to find a way between acceptable optimization and acceptable code design.

hello everyone,
I want to write a program to record the event of keyboard, sb advise me to use journal hook.
//g_hLogHook is a global hook
if (g_hLogHook==NULL)
g_hLogHook=SetWindowsHookEx(WH_JOURNALRECORD, (HOOKPROC)JournalLogProc,AfxGetInstanceHandle(),0);
It will not return until I press Ctrl-Alt-Del to cancel the hook. It then has a valid handle for g_hLogHook.I'm at a loss as to why this hangs？
can anyone give me a answer?
ps:msdn
Unlike most other global hook procedures, the JournalRecordProc and JournalPlaybackProc hook procedures are always called in the context of the thread that set the hook.
now,now that JournalProc is always called in the context of the thread that set the hook,why all the threads on the desktop are hanging before I press Ctrl-Alt-Del ?
thanks for your answer

hi. I am trying to create a simple interpreter wherein it simply adds and subtracts.
Sample Input:
y = 5 + 8;
cout << y;
Output: 13
I have already started using stacks however it seems that it cannot pass through other commands after reading the input. Here's the code (Actually, I got this code from the net but it seems not to work):
#include<iostream>
#include<stack>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
int main(){
stack<string> syntax;
string word;
while (cin >> input) //after this, it no longer passes to the next syntax
{
syntax.push(word);
}
cout << "Number of words: " << syntax.size() << endl;
while(!syntax.empty())
{
cout << syntax.top() << endl;
syntax.pop();
}
cout.flush();
return 0;
}
Do you have any ideas?

Personally not, however I know a creative guy [^].
BTW: properly format you code snippet using the code block button.
BTW2: are you using this code without properly understanding the underlying idea? At a first glance it looks rather buggy.

Yes. Fix the syntax error.

well... that's my point. I can't seem to find any way to fix it. It runs but I don't know what logical error I'm doing. It does store the input in the stack but it no longer goes to the next line of codes after the while loop. Please help.. (T_T)

The code snippet you've shown does not compile.

Have you tried pressing F6 followed by the Enter key (twice).

wait. im sorry about that. this is the right code.
#include<iostream>
#include<stack>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
int main(){
stack<string> syntax;
string word;
while (cin >> word)
{
syntax.push(word);
}
cout << "Number of words: " << syntax.size() << endl;
while(!syntax.empty())
{
cout << syntax.top() << endl;
syntax.pop();
}
cout.flush();

Hi All,
I want to attempt to block a specific program from establishing outgoing TCP/UDP connections. Thus as the (external) app attempts to make a socket connection, I want to receive notification of the event and have the ability to allow or deny the connection attempt.
(I know this is basic firewall functionality I am referring to here, but there is no firewall on the market that can do exactly what I want, when I want, and how I want it for this specific program)
I have seen the packet filtering API that is provided by Windows, but that only seems to filter on IP's and Ports. I want to filter on application !
Can anybody please point my nose in the right direction here.
Thanks

Try implementing a Layered Service Provider. This is a DLL that gets loaded by every application that uses Winsock.
Look up Winsock Layered Service Provider, or LSP.

Hi all,
I am currently working a specific hardware device and the device header files do not support some of the standard C string routines. Thus I am struggling to convert a int to a char*.
Thus, how can I perform this action without making use of itoa, printf, sprintf ??
Many thank in advance
Kind regards,

Examine the source code of a standard C-RTL and steal^H^H^H^H^H, er... get some inspiration from... their implementation.

Here's how the CRT does itoa(), with all the error/buffer overflow checking stripped...
void integertoascii(int n, char *buf, int radix)
{
char *pbuf = buf;
do
{
unsigned int digit = (unsigned int)(n % radix);
n /= radix;
if (digit > 9)
*pbuf++ = digit - 10 + 'a';
else
*pbuf++ = digit + '0';
}
while (n > 0);
*pbuf-- = '\0';
do
{
char temp = *pbuf;
*pbuf = *buf;
*buf = temp;
--pbuf;
++buf;
} while (buf < pbuf);
}

I am installing my mfc based application through a .msi file.
i want to know how to close a running application before uninstallation???

Implement a small DLL that closes the application by sending a WM_CLOSE message to the main window.
Then call the DLL through a Custom Action in your MSI.
