may be....where is this option?

Well, after re reading your OP I'm afraid I was wrong with my "hint".
It seems to more probable the reason is in a mixing some 32/64 bit settings or linked DLLs.
BTW, doe the Release 64 build work?
And Debug 32 build?

I am working on C++ project where performance is critical. there is no logging mechanism. I dont want to implement logging in the same project as it will hit performance. And hence I want to create A C# project while takes care of actually logging from C++ process I will push the Log strings to C# process to do Actually logging.
I want to know which is the best IPC - Named pipes ? Memory Mapped files ? Socket
Which should not hit the performance
Could you please point me to some sample code/link which has the mechanism to Log from C++ to C# code please

Logging will not be a performance issue if you do that in an own thread. That thread may be part of the application itself or another application.
Using another application with IPC makes it more complicated and requires that the other application is running. So I would not use another application if there is no need for other communications besides logging.
There might be even no need of using a thread when logging does not occur at high rates with large data. The log data has to be prepared anyway within the time critical thread. Using then a log file which stays open might be sufficient. If you are concerned about the file write times, use overlapped IO so that the writing is done by the system in the background (which is basically the same as suggested above: moving the operation to another thread).
I know that the above is not what you asked for but I think it is helpful and you might find out that using IPC is not necessary. When maximum performance is a must-have, you have to use one of the above mentioned methods (own thread or overlapped IO) anyway even with IPC.

On the Microsoft Windows platform the fastest possible logging is through Event Tracing for Windows (ETW)[^]. Logging with ETW so fast... graphics drivers can render at 150 FPS and perform logging at the same time without losing any framerate.
What it basically does is write integers into a circular buffer all in RAM. There is nothing faster.

I was involved in a C++ project years ago. Unix based. Performance was a contractual requirement.
The architect was sure that logging was a performance problem.
So we removed logging.
Absolute zero impact on performance.
And that was back when spewing stuff to a console (stdio) could impact performance.
If you have a performance problem then you need to address the requirements and design first before looking for problems in the implementation and technologies.

Every logging library that I have seen for at least the past 10 years if not longer uses pluggable designs. Which means if the plugs that are already available do not meet your needs then you can create your own. However at least when I looked some already supported remote logging plugs.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
char c;
cin.get(c);
while(c != '\n'){
cout << c ;
cin.get(c);
}
}
int the code above shouldn't cout << c print every charecter i put in cin.get() in loop ?
Quote: while(c != '\n'){
cout << c ; //displays the charecter on screen
cin.get(c); //get another charecter
}
instead it print the string i enter collectively, for ex.
Quote:
input : "Jhon simon"
output : "Jhon simon"
please explain
Thank you

Your explanation is a bit unclear. If the "input:" and "output:" are the same, what exactly is the issue?
With limited information, the only thing I can suggest is:
cout << c << std::flush;

No, it prints each character as you type it.

cin.get() does not read individual keystrokes -- the input is buffered by the terminal until you hit Enter, then all of the input is sent to the program at once.
To read individual keystrokes, you'll have to rely on a third-party tool like GNU's ncurses library.

I use the CListCtrl to display a list of grouped properties. Each of these groups should be described by an explanatory text. That's why I entered longer texts as subtitles for the groups.
If the subtitle is short enough that it fits in one line, then everything looks fine.
However, if the subtitle is longer than one line, it is wrapped at the width of the list control. Unfortunately, the wrapped lines are then superimposed by the following contents of the list.
For example, the content of the items of the group overwrite the wrapped subtitle. When the group is collapsed, the subtitle is superimposed by the following groups.
See also the examples in the following Screenshot:
- Group 1 has a short subtitle and all looks fine.
- Group 2 has a log subtitle, which is overwritten by the contents of the items.
- Group 3 is collapsed and the wrapped subtitle is overwritten by the content of group 4.
Is there a way to expand the area for the subtitles?
Regards,
Friedbert

How can I do this in a smarter way in regular C-programming, without having an init function that initializes the values?
struct myStruct_s {
int myInt;
Bool_t myBool;
EventCallback_t myEventCallback;
};
#define DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE (5)
static struct myStruct_s myArray[] = {
#if 1 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 2 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 3 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 4 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 5 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 6 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 7 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 8 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 9 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 10 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 11 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 12 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 13 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 14 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 15 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 16 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 17 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 18 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 19 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
#if 20 <= DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE
{0xABCD, TRUE, NULL},
#endif
};

Please edit the above, and remove all that formatting. People here can read normal font sizes quite well.
|

|

I didn't use any formatting. The forum has a bug, it does weird things to the formatting if you start a line with either #define of #if (try for yourself).

If you know HTML and want to insert HTML tags manually when posting (besides using the options on top of the editor window) have a look at the bottom of the page when posting a message. There are two options:
"Treat my content as plain text, not as HTML"
and
"Use Markdown formatting"
When both are unchecked nothing will be auto formatted.
The first option can be also changed on your profile settings page in the Forums tab.

When using C++ and all members should be initialised with the same value you can provide a constructor:
struct myStruct_s {
int myInt;
Bool_t myBool;
EventCallback_t myEventCallback;
myStruct_s() : myInt(0xABCD), myBool(FALSE), myEventCallback(NULL) { }
};
static struct myStruct_s myArray[DESIRED_ARRAY_SIZE];

I forgot to mention, I'm programming in regular C.
|
|
|
|
|
Then I know only four ways:
- Like you have done with multiple preprocessor
#if statements.
- Using weird preprocessor macros to create a loop.
- Initialising by code using a loop.
- Writing a helper program that creates a file with the relevant code lines that can then be included in a source file or even linked when declaring the struct as extern. The helper program must then be executed by the make file (or a corresponding custom build option when using an IDE) before compiling.

One approach is to not bother; just initialize the array to what the maximum size could be and then store the actual size in a static variable.
If this isn't time critical, just do it dynamically. Or, make sure the default values is zero and do a memset early on.
In this case, they're all the same, so doing a quick loop early on solves the problem.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main(){
const char *ptr = "tarun" ;
cout << name << endl ;
return 0;
}
in the above code if i assign a string literal to a const char*
Quote: const string *name = "tarun";
it prints the string but the same with string gives error that
Quote: cannot convert ‘const char’ to ‘const string
so it means any string literal is a const char (which i think is a rvalue),
but it is a collection of characters, so how is it a char ? and if it is a char then why it is called string literal ?
please explain.
Thank you.

You may want to change it to
const string name = "tarun";

The variable ptr is a pointer to a collection of char-acters, be it 1 or 100.
Tarun Jha wrote: ...then why it is called string literal ?
Like anything holding quotation marks apart, they are literally those characters. They haven't been modified, translated, obtained from some other place, coerced, etc. If you look inside the compiled file, you will see those characters, literally.

To me you are sort of asking a strange question well outside the literal string part, so lets just check you understand some basics
First a string is class or if you want an object it has constructors, destructor and methods it isn't just an array of characters.
string - C++ Reference[^]
You can't remotely equate those two lines as anything similar, do you understand that?
So with a string class when you declare it as a const (like your commented out) what are you expecting it will do?
So you are clear you are asking for a constant pointer to an object and trying to set some literal string to that object.
This may also help understand Victors response and David deals with the literal part.
The point here is you can only create a string when it matches one of the constructor types of the class.
What constructor functions exist controls how you can create it.
Here is the examples of showing the seven standard constructor methods for the class
string::string - C++ Reference[^]
The situation with just a character array is very different
const char *ptr = "tarun";
We have a simple array of characters that can never be changed AKA they are constant
Everything from a C to a C++ compiler understands the later because it's very trivial.
