I personally don't like the idea of waiting on OVERLAPPED handles. I'd much rather not introduce more (or any) synchronization objects to the IOCP handler threads but instead let the IOCP do its magic with all threads waiting on GetQueuedCompletionStatus.
I take advantage of the fact that the same overlapped structure pointer you pass to an overlapped function will be returned to you so I use extended OVERLAPPED structures like the one in this article[^]
typedef struct _OVERLAPPEDPLUS {
OVERLAPPED ol;
SOCKET s, sclient;
int OpCode;
WSABUF wbuf;
DWORD dwBytes, dwFlags;
} OVERLAPPEDPLUS;
The opcode can be used to indicate read or write (and many other things including non-I/O tasks you
want to queue on the IOCP). Also gives you a handy place to keep buffers associated with the operation.

Hello,
Does someone tried to recompile the class CSimpleDate with visual studio 2010 without error?
Is there an equivalent class for managing dates and compile under Visual Studio 2010?

You might ask the author, since it was initially created with VS6.

(I'm such a good boy)
it compiles ok when you fix the 2, 3 _very_ simple compilation errors (VC6 was a crappy compiler); and fix the unsafe functions (I did not fix them).
The project crashes because there are memory overruns (could be fixed by replacing unsafe functions with their safe variants.
Watched code never compiles.

Hi All,
I know there are a lot of people over here who have a diverse set of knowledge.
Why not we collaborate and start some C/C++ tools/application development that can benefit us and others also.
We can list out our skills, what tools are required and go about developing it and posting it out in CodeProject.
Please let me know your views on this.
~Thanks

to output to the console all the values that RegEnumValue function can return, function at msdn: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms724865%28v=vs.85%29.aspx i want to output these vars too:

i have tried different things but everytime i change any of NULL var from that function:
retCode = RegEnumValue(hKey, i, achValue, &cchValue, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
i even don´t get achValue
thanks a lot

You need to initialize your parameters as described in the documentation[^], so that the API knows how long your buffers are and what values you want returned. Using NULL as the input parameter tells the API to ignore that part of the request.

You could do it like this:
int datatype;
unsigned char *value;
int sizeofvalue;
if(RegEnumValue(hKey,i,achValue,&cchValue,0,&datatype,value,&sizeofvalue) == ERROR_SUCCESS){
switch(datatype){
case REG_DWORD:
printf("%d",*((int*)value));
break;
case REG_NONE:
printf(...);
break;
case REG_EXPAND_SZ:
printf(...);
break;
case REG_SZ:
printf(...);
break;
case REG_MULTI_SZ:
printf(...);
break;
default:
printf(...);
break;
}
}
Where datatype will identify the type of information, achValue the name of the value, value the actual value and sizeofvalue the size of the value.
I added an example printf for REG_DWORD.

As mentioned in my response, this still will not get the values since the variables datatype, value and sizeofvalue need to be initialised before each call to RegEnumValue().

I am interested in using my static lib to create a dll (implicitly linking). which means I need to (in vs2008) create a dll project that should generate the following:
1. header file (which have exported function declarations. These are simple wrappers to actual functions in the static lib and are using __declspec(dllexport) which are in the dll centric .cpp file)
2. import lib which will be made as a result of creating the dll
3. the actual dll which is created.
Now this is what I have:
I have made a test program that will utilize the above dll(including the import lib/header files) to test it. in this I have included all the three items. now the exe compiles/links without issue. however in the main.cpp when i call the exported functions they seem to see the exported dlls...but can't seem to execute the static library functions which they wrap.
i have tested the static lib against the exe and it works fine.
but when i put the dll in between the wrappers just dont seem to run the static library functions... i am at a loss.
there are no compile/link errors. no warnings. i am just thinking hhow do i find out if the static lib is properly being used by the dll? i have no way of knowing that i guess in vs2008. any help would be most apprecaited

I'm not sure I understand what you mean here. Are you saying that the functions inside the DLL are supposed to call functions inside the static library? If that is the case then the static library needs to be linked in to your DLL when it is built.

How do you know it's not calling the functions? Is the output wrong? Are you using breakpoints in the static library and seeing that you are not getting there?
If I get what you are doing, you should have TWO copies of the static library functions in your final memory image, one copy accessed by the main code and linked in when the main.exe is built and one copy inside the DLL itself that was linked in when the DLL file was created.
So, you say "can't seem to execute the static library functions". How have you determined that?
|

I don't understand the question. At a minimus perhaps it has two parts.
Part 1: If you want to write code to create a dll (not use an existing one) then you need to deal with doing just that. HOW the dll is used after that is irrelevant to this part of the code. And if I was doing it I would create source code and then plan on providing a compiler/linker which I would then call from the code so that those created the dll.
Part 2: There is code X that uses a dll Y. If Y does not exist when X is created then X must call the dll dynamically. Y of course must be a dll (or another type of binary that can be dynamically loaded.) X cannot randomly use any Y. X must know/assume some behavior of Y. So X loads Y, then looks for exactly the functionality that it demands. Then it calls that.
The two parts have nothing to do with each other. Implement them and test them independently from each other.

straight win32 app
I used the URLDownloadToFile to download a program file, probably a mistake, but a start at least. I wrote my IBindStatusCallback, and attached it to the URL program.
So I have a Window, not a dialog box, probably another mistake, I call the function in my window, and the function runs, but the wndproc in the window stops running, so my cancel button won't fire.
I tried to think of a way, that allows the OnProcess loop to give control back to the window, so I can capture the cancel button, but no luck.
Any points in the right direction would be helpful. I did see the data exchange thing, but thought it was for dialog boxes. This is my first experience in this.
|
|
|
|
|
Well, you could start a separate thread to do the URLDownloadToFile call and let the OnProcess (which I assume is your button) to return processing windows messages.
You would have to implement a "completion" message back from the thread to the main window to tell it when the download was complete and return the status of the download (success, fail, cancelled).
You cancel button should then work but, of course, you now need to tell the thread that the cancel button was hit or test a "cancelled" flag in the callback.
|
|
|
|
|
I was just reading up on creating threads.
So I guess I would create a thread in the window code, and run the class code in the thread.
Creating a thread looks like it takes alot of code.
Maybe the cancel button is not worth it.
|
|
|
|
|
Nah, creating thread is pretty straightforward, there are lots of examples here on code project. A quick search should find several like this CThread - a Worker Thread wrapper class[^]
Or you can use CWinThread (if you're derived from CWinApp). Or use _beginthreadex()[^] native Windows API.
Threads is a good thing to learn early. In this case, you can create the simplest of thread routines and not worry about complicated events and synchronization later. Just get it to do your download and send a completion message to your main windows process.
|
|
|
|
|
Well since I used the simplest way to download, the simplest thread sounds like a good idea. I'll start that tomorrow.
Right now I'm experimenting with creating a cancel button in the download class, and seeing if I can capture the message when the button is clicked. I got the button to appear and position itself with the right font in the Callback under BINDSTATUS_CONNECTING
I wrapped the original call to the class in a do loop, to keep it from progressing. Got the idea from the socket code I wrote.
I'm just messing around right now, experimenting till morning.
do {
bResult = caDownload._download_SQLServerExpress_GUI(cWnd, pb_SQL_Server_Download_Status, lbl_SQL_Server_Download_Status, bAreWeX64 );
} while (bResult == FALSE);

|
|
Which one was the easy one?, they both look intimidating.
|
|
|
|
|
They're both a lot easier having done them than before. I had no idea about threads or sockets 2 1/2 weeks ago, but have now learnt enough to get by and have cobbled together a rss reader - one which can pre-load all subscribed feeds in parallel, each in it's own thread.
Notifying the main window of a thread's completion is the easier of the two. Without MFC, it's as (1) defining a user message, and deciding on the format (if any) of the passed information (2) sending that message to the main window upon completion (3) handling that message in the main window.

hdr->result = NULL;

PostMessage(mainDlgWnd, WM_GALLERY_HTML_AVAILABLE, 0, 0);
}
...
...
...
...
case WM_INITDIALOG:
mainDlgWnd = hwndDlg;
editWnd = GetDlgItem(hwndDlg, IDC_RICHEDIT1);
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hwndDlg, IDC_RICHEDIT1));
return FALSE;
case WM_FILE_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE:
return true;
case WM_GALLERY_HTML_AVAILABLE:
findLinks((char*)galHtmlStr.c_str(), links, validExts);
strLinks.clear();
