yes, that's what it does, but effectively, it has no significant use...

Not the case with me. Some of my apps run for weeks together, and they follow different ways of logging and dumping data, based on how the dump functions are implemented, which in turn are based on the build. I use them extensively.
And I have no idea of why would you want to tell me that it is of no use. Probably you wanted to reply to the OP?

Rajesh, come on.
how would you use a Cstring object declared like that ?
there are many more advaced ways of making better looging system.
here is one off the top of my head :
#ifdef _DEBUG
#define TRACE printf
#else
int TRACE(const char*, ...) { return 0; }
#endif
then, you don't have to repeat the #ifdef _DEBUG each time you want to use the str CString variable you declared previously 
ps: no, i wanted to say this to you, not to the OP

That's what I meant when I said I use different ways of dumping for different builds.
I am not after declaring a CString in between blocks of #ifdef and #endif and to use it, I know it is the mark of an idiot. I thought you were harping that #ifdef and #endif are of no use.
Misunderstanding there.

The debug configuration of you project will be defined with _DEBUG symbol. So if you write the code as above, you will be defining the a CString variable in the debug mode. If you compile the project in release mode( which is not defined _DEBUG symbol) #ifdef body will be skipped by compiler. Thus the str variable will not available in your source.
Please check the documentation of #ifdef for more details

I am trying to prevent the user from clicking, holding, and dragging the toolbar in an application I wrote. The application uses Stringray controls (RogueWave), MFC, and COM. I believe the trouble is working with Stingray Studio. Can anyone give me some direction? Thanks.

Hello All,
What's the best way for someone, who knows just enough of C++ to know what to search for on the internet and piece programs together that way, to get VC6 programs to compile under VS2008. It there a way to get the compiler to ignore pieces of code that do not comply with new standards? or is there some software that will rewrite the old code so that it will comply with newer standards? or is there another way of doing this that doesn't require me to fully learn the historical development of C++ under windows?
Thanks,
G

Someone else might have but I haven't heard of anything that would upgrade non-compliant code to current standard.
Is there some reason that you could not use a prior version of Visual Studio to get the code to compile? That would be the only way I know of.
Why is common sense not common?

Just think how much more C++ you'll know after upgrading the code to current
standards yourself

While it won't solve all that ails you, check out _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE.

It seems you are new to c++,do you want to compile your old project on the VS2008,after compile VS2008 give you a report of errors and warnings.

Recently (last two or three weeks) I read an article from a link in the newsletter. It was about something else in C/C++ but near the top it had some comments on enum and typedef and why they should seperated. It also had something about always adding a begining and ending reference to use with loop itterations. I believe the example had something to do with days. If anybody remembers the article I'd appreciate a heads up. I searched for it but couldn't find it.

That was a good suggestion but it didn't help. I went through the last several months and didn't find the article. I do get more than one email a day from CodeProject so it must have been in something besides the newsletter. Thanks for trying to help.

Hi,
My application working fine in the dev environment.But in the testing /production environment
it is not working because that environment has only
windows server 2003
IIS
I have prepared a MSI which will automatically install .net2.0 framework
In my application I have Used some microsoft VC++ dll's also along with .net dll's.
Now Iam getting "RUNTime Error" pop-up screen message as below
" The Application has been terminated in an Unusual Way"
On googling i came to know that some dll's like msvcrt.dll of windows server 2003 has to be changed...But Iam not pretty sure about it..
In Production/test environment there is only framework installed ,but there is no visual studio installed on it.may be due that this error may occur...
So kindly post your suggestions and views to help me

Hi,
Iam thankfull for your valuable information..

I tried the following as suggested by you:
1. I have installled the redistributable package suggested by you.
after installing i restarted the PC even now also I got the same runtime pop-up error.
2. Then I checked even with the dependency walker for the dll.
I found that there is no miising dll.
3. Then I tried by installing Visual C++ express edition..even then also i got the same pop-up error.
Kindly help me.....

Almost I forgot your question I was thinking that I didnt asnwer to Application Terminated question but now I saw you asked this question 22 Sep  .
On the project setting (Configuration properties->General) did you use of Use Standard Windows Libraries?
------------------------------------------
Can you more explain about your program,please if its possible for you:Its a service or database or directx or device driver or...? I have windows server 2008 on the system and I can compile your project(I will be compile your project and if it shows this error on windows server so I will be instal visual studio 2008 on the windows server and i will be compile your project on the windows 2008 so we will be find whats the problem is this problem of windows or you must be change some code of your project) of course if you like.

Hey everyone,
I'm writing an application in which I need to convert an input of virtual key codes to an ASCII output. Currently I have something like this:
if (logchar>0x40 && logchar<0x5a){
if ((shiftKeyDown==FALSE && capslockKeyDown==FALSE)
|| (shiftKeyDown==TRUE && capslockKeyDown==TRUE)) logchar+=0x20;
}
else if (logchar>=0x30 && logchar<0x40 && shiftKeyDown==TRUE){
switch(logchar)
{
case 0x31:
logchar='!';
break;
logchar contains the virtual key code.
So far, I've successfully implemented the alphabet. Unfortunately, I can't convert other symbols like ,./<>?;':"[]{} etc. I have absolutely no idea what logchar would equal if the input is a key like ~ or |. If anyone could give me a list of the virtual key codes for each key on the keyboard that would be appreciated.
And if there is any other function that would make this easier that would also be appreciated. I'm doing everything with switch and if/else statements and it's getting quite messy.
Thanks in advance.

You cannot use MapVirtualKey(...) along with the state of the modifier keys (like <SHIFT>)?
Also, a list of Virtual Key codes is available in the MSDN documentation.
Peace!

Thanks! This is almost what I'm looking for. I haven't tried implementing it yet, but from the documentation on MSDN it looks like it'll do the job I want it to do.
I'm pretty sure I can detect the modifier keys and change the output with an if/else statement.
I'll try that and see how it goes.
Thanks again.
Edit: Ok. It works now. The only problem that I have no idea how to fix is how to convert symbols. Like, for example, if the input is a vkcode for [ or ] or \, the output comes out as 0. Does the MapVirtualKey function support symbols? Or is it just letters?
