Semaphore does allow you to access the resources when the threads are limited, and is not used to limit the number of threads.
MSDN - ***An object of class CSemaphore represents a "semaphore" — a synchronization object that allows a limited number of threads in one or more processes to access a resource
If you want to use WaitForMultipleObject than you can store the handles of the thread in an array and then pass this as a parameter to it.
Some things seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

In such scenario (one writer, multiple readers), you can avoid using critical section using guards 'around' your variable. Suppose you use two integers, m_iSeqId1 and m_iSeqId2 (both initialized to 0). Your writer thread will first increase m_iSeqId1, then update the new value, then increase m_iSeqId2 (so that it becomes equal to m_iSeqId1). Your reader threads first read m_iSeqId2 (yes m_iSeqId2 and not m_iSeqId1), read the value and then read m_iSeqId1. If both sequence Ids are the same, the value can be read and is not corrupted. If the Ids are different, the read should repeat the full operation until both Ids are the same.
But, this is only usefull when you are working with variables that cannot be set in one single instruction (e.g. an array, a string, an object, ...). Assignements of simple types (like int, char, ...) are atomic.

Can you please explain what you mean exactly by "pop_up interface" ?
|

Hi,
I m trying to load a resource dll to my application but its failing with error code 126(which says dll not found).
I have also checked the path manually as well as using CFileFind (and it shows that dll is there).
One more thing i have also checked the same code with normal dll(i.e. which has some code) and it works absolutely fine.
Does anyone has any idea or hint about this?
Is it related to trusted dll?
Thanks in Advance!
Tony

It might help if you showed some code and said where the file is located.
|
|
|
|
|
CString strPath = "C:\\Test\\SampleResource.dll";
CFileFind Ff;
bool bIsFilePresent = Ff.FindFile(strPath); // It returns true
HINSTANCE hTest = LoadLibrary(strPath); // It returns NULL
DWORD dwError = GetLastError();// It returns 126
I hope this piece of code is understandable.
Thanks.

The problem is most likely that the DLLMain() function in the DLL is returning FALSE.
When you build the resource DLL, set the "Entry Point" property to None - Resource DLL.
That ought to fix it.
The "Entry Point" property is on the "Linker" tab.
|
|
|
|
|
Entry point has been very correctly set and in fact it is working fine with WinXP and Win Vista. But same code is failing with Windows 7.
Any idea about it?

I hope it helps.

Hi all,
What is the use of declaring a private destructor?
Where we are using this? Can anybody tell an example
Thanks
San
|
|
|
|
|
The purpose of the private destructor is to avoid the deletion of the object while it is still referenced

Could please send me some sample code

and other use could be if you want to stop the creation of the object on stack. Yes, you can not delete these object by using delete. Either you have to assume that you don't want to delete such objects or you have to overload the delete or delete these from any friend function.
class Test
{
public:
Test(){}
private:
~Test(){}
};
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
//Test tmp; // Compilation error;
Test *testP = new Test(); // work fine
return 0;
}

Test *testP = new Test();
what about delete?
|
|
|
|
|
for delete we have to create a friend function or we have to assume that we don't want to delete this

HI Manish,
How to write Friend Function to call Delete on Private Destructor.
Thanks,
Krishna.
|
|
|
|
|
here is a minimal example
class A
{
private:
~A(){};
public:
A(){};
friend void fn();
};
void fn()
{
A a;
}
In this case if you create a object of class A on stack in any other function other than fn() complier will give you an error C2248: 'A::~A' : cannot access private member declared in class 'A'
