Link Errors - C / C++ / MFC Discussion Boards

I experimented with this method and got the same problem for google and a few other sites. The error code is 0x800401e4 which translates to "Invalid syntax"????

That's right, 0x800401e4 is MK_E_SYNTAX. MSDN describes this error for a different URL Moniker function (they don't even list it as a return value for URLDownloadToFile) and it says:

A moniker could not be created because szURL does not correspond to valid URL syntax for a full or partial URL. This is uncommon, because most parsing of the URL occurs during binding and because the syntax for URLs is extremely flexible.

So what's going on? I can't believe that I just can't use URLDownloadToFile at all in my application because it just doesn't download certain pages...

Also I don't think the problem has to do with a bad header to www.google.com because I can get a response from the google server via telnet by just sending a request line and a "Host" header... They don't seem strangely picky about requiring headers.

I don't know what is wrong but I tried to get the data using the Internet API functions:
InternetOpen(..)
InternetOpenUrl(..)
InternetReadFile(..)

and it works fine for Google and all the other sites I tried. I suggest you go that route.

Is there any way to use the "Run As Other User" dialog box from my project with out having to create my own?

I have been searching the net and MSDN. Although, I have found tones of imformation, there does not seem to be a function (undocumented or otherwise) to "Run As Other User".

Sugestions, books, etc... will be appriciated.

Trust in the code Luke. Yea right!

Hello,

I am using an activex control in my vc++ application and I would like to have the equivalent of an control array in vb. I tried to map the events using ON_EVENT_RANGE and adding a 1st parameter
on every event function as an index in the array. I declared the array as an array of pointers to the activex objects.
But it doesn't work.

So, can this be done? Am I doing something wrong? Confused | :confused:

how can i put a binary data chunk in to XML node using MSXML

I've seen some suggestions of converting it to a hex representation.

Any suggestions or examples

If you were to do it in C#. it is in this URL
Link here
I guess you could check the XML content once you made the method invoked.

Below is snippet of my compile output for my application. As you can see, I am having linking problems. Any suggestions?
PS - I apologize for this message being a little long, but figured it would be better to post the whole compile errors for all gurus.

looks like the lib and the app are using different C runtime libraries. look at Project / Settings / General / Microsoft Foundation Classes for both projects - make sure they are the same.

File and directory names are Unicode strings and many (most) non-MS apps don't handle them properly.

The Unicode version of openfile dialog can handle 32K characters for a path name while the ANSI version does ~260. This is a good reason alone to always use the Unicode version. Another is if someone uses a non-European language for a directory name.

My question is how can this be done and still have the app work on Win98/ME ?

If an MFC app is built with the Unicode setting on, does one need to install the "Unicode layer" dll's onto a Win98/ME machine?

I thought that I checked and MFC, even when set to Unicode, still limits paths to MAX_PATH. Is there a standard solution?

Is there any advantage in making just the file handling portion of the code wide character?

search MSDN for "Microsoft Layer for Unicode".

you need this to be able to use UNICODE on win98 and Me.

Is this a problem? I'm wondering when 260 characters would not be sufficient for a path/file name. I don't work with UNICODE so my view is a bit jaded.

The 260 char limit causes me grief when working with shared files on our dept. server. There are lots of files in a highly structured organization.
Adding the UNC name, share name, the long folder names and file names- it would often go beyond what the file utility I used could handle.
(Besides, there is a newly disccovered flaw in some anti-virus programs. They also can not go beyound 260 character paths, so virus infected files can hide in deeply nested directories.)

Your implementation has memory leaks. pMessage is created in a seperate thread and should be deleted.

this would be the preferred solution:

void HandleSpam(CMessage *pMessage)
{  
   CSpamMessage *pSpam = dynamic_cast<CSpamMessage *>(pMessage);  
   if(pSpam)  
   {     
      AfxMessageBox("Please do not post Spam in the forums");
      // pSpam->SetPostRating(1.0);  <-- no longer necessary ;)
      delete pSpam; // :cool:
   }

}

Build : warning : failed to (or don't know how to) build 'D:\Projects\MyProj\Debug\MyProj.pch'

It builds in "release" mode! I can't find anything different in the settings! (save for optimization and debug info) Any ideas?

The pre-compiled header is missing. Rebuild everything and you should be ok.

I get this error on "Rebuild All" Eek! | :eek:

All your source files are setup to use the PCH file but non are set to actually build it.

I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

I have gotten this from time to time. Eventually it aggrivated me to an extent that I just changed my project settings.

In Pre-compiled headers, set it to "Automatic" (for all configurations.) Then you will never see this error again. Smile | :)

How can I get Hardware Information via DMI ? Are there any examples in which case I can use DMI with Visual C++ ?

thnx,
Sendel

Use WMI to get what you're looking for. DMI is in a protected low-memory area of the bios and Windows won't let you get at it without writing a device driver to the best of my knowledge.

I have no idea why. When I create a new SDI or MDI MFC-Application, compile the wizard generated code, open the aboutbox -> crash
It also crashes even if I want to display a simple messagebox.
Would be nice if someone could help me.
