I am developing an API Hooking Module. Here I used the PE files IAT patching technique. The Procedure I used ,is like this:
1> Inject the DLL into the address space of process by CreateRemoteThread.
2> Parse the IAT with the help of Instance then patch the address with my funcion having same prototype.
I tested it on Notepad applicaion.
Here for ShowWindow it works only for Notepad window. For find dialog boxes and other dialogs it won't work.. Cry | :((

what is the possible reason? Plase help me ...

Well you can implement only if irfan view supports COleDropSource and of course COleDataObject.

To test it try dragging on one of famous applications like Adobe or Flash. If they get images then you have it.

Rich Edit Control/Edit Control question

How can I move the cursor in a Rich Edit Control? If someone chooses a html tag in a menu I want to put the starting and ending tags <bold> and place the caret in the middle for convenience. I can put the tags but I cant find a way to move the cursor in the middle. I'm assuming it's probably the same method for edit and rich edit controls. It will be for a SDI(doc/view) application. Thanks

If you have to put the caret at a position pos in the control try to use

SetSel(pos, pos),

this should move the caret to that position.

And how do we retrieve the caret position in a CRichEditCtrl ? There is no GetPos or whatever ...

int pos1, pos2;
m_myRichEd.GetSel(pos1, pos2);

pos1 and pos2 are passed by reference, if thier is no selection they should be both equal to the current caret postion.

Varibles Spanning Multiple Dialogs

NPL Solutions12-Feb-03 13:08

12-Feb-03 13:08

I have 1 dialog with 4 edit boxes. Their variables are of type double. I have two other varibles that need to be included in my second dialog as static text.

To make this simple:

m_varA = m_editA \ m_editB;
m_varB = m_editC \ m_editD;

I want my static text to represent m_varA and m_varB. My code for the button that opens the new dialog is as follows:

{<br />
m_m = (m_strY2 - m_strY1) / (m_strX2 - m_strX2);<br />
if(m_strY1 < 0)<br />
{<br />
	m_b = (m_strY1 + m_m * m_strX1);<br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
	m_b = m_strY1 - (m_m * m_strX1);<br />
}<br />
m_m = CSlopeDlg.m_m;<br />
m_b = CSlopeDlg.m_b;<br />
m_dCSlopeDlg.DoModal ();<br />
}

Where m_strX1, Y1, X2, Y2 are my edit boxes. m_m is one of the variables that I want to be displayed in my other dialog, and so with m_b.

All of my variables are of type double as I said before.

CSlopeDlg.m_m is the euqivilant of m_m in my first dialog. It is the static text. It is of type CString. Same with CSlopeDlg.m_b.

The compiler give me the same error twice, as expected:

error C2275: 'CSlopeDlg' : illegal use of this type as an expression see declaration of 'CSlopeDlg.

What should I do?

Am I even on the right track? Confused | :confused:

Thanks,
Nicky

hi,
you can't use a class thing like that..you need an object first..to use it..
you can use it like this..
CSlopeDlg dlg;
m_m = dlg.m_m;
thats it..you are done..
cheers

Hi,
Thank you very much, but now it says:

error C2679: binary '=' : no operator defined which takes a right-hand operand of type 'class Ctring' (or there is no acceptable coversion)

How can I convert the double type variables to CString, or the CString variable to double?

Thanks,
Nicky

hi,
cant u make both of them of same type...i guess u have defined them as CString and other becomes double..in your calculations...once it is any type int float or double..you can type cast it and do the work...
i hope it helps..
cheers

doModal() frustrations

davedoc12-Feb-03 12:46

12-Feb-03 12:46

I have a dialog based application that has 2 dialogs in it. I display each of them using doModal() something like the following:

CEulaDlg eDlg;
CSetupDlg dlg;

INT_PTR nResponse = -1;

nResponse = eDlg.DoModal();
if( nResponse == IDCANCEL )
return false;

nResponse = dlg.DoModal();
if (nResponse == IDOK)
{ ...

I'm calling both AfxEnableControlContainer() and AfxInitRichEdit2() in both dialog constructors. The problem I'm having is that once I add the eDlg dialog when I run the app nothing happens. The app doesn't even appear in the process mgr after a few seconds.

There is one thing unusual, if I build it from the VS.NET GUI it runs fine. If I build it from the command line, it doesn't work.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Changing the Default CRT Heap

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to change the default C-runtime heap for a DLL. I would like a DLL that I am creating to automatically allocate its data into a different heap than the host process, and I dont really want to resort to writing my own heap manager or using the Win32 heap functions to manage memory.

Thanks

Correct me if I am wrong, but I always thought, that the dlls have they own heap - therefore if you malloc something in DLL you are not able to free it in the EXE (or another DLL). I am not really sure about that, but it was told me in some years ago, while learning working with DLLs I allocated some resource in DLL1 and tried to free it in DLL2, getting the heap corruption message.

One solution is ShellExecute()

ShellExecute(// Handle to window of new process.
NULL,
// Command
TEXT("open"),
// Source data
"???.???.???/???.???"
// New process paramater
NULL,
// Directory
NULL,
// Window
SW_SHOWNORMAL);
