Re: array of components 2d K.A.L13-Oct-04 9:01 K.A.L 13-Oct-04 9:01  "Avoid raw arrays. I would use CArray or vector." Why? I am kind of new in c++ and thanks. Re: array of components 2d Kevin McFarlane13-Oct-04 22:36 Kevin McFarlane 13-Oct-04 22:36  See http://www.artima.com/intv/goldilocks.html[^] Basically, we should all be using the modern, high-level features of C++. They are safer, more robust, easier to use (after a bit of acquaintance) and often just as efficient as the low-level stuff. Have a look at Stroustrup's comments and papers on this. See also Paul McKenzie's posts at codeguru.com. Stroustrup: "The problem with the C way is that if you write code C-style, you get C-style problems. You will get buffer overflows. You will get pointer problems. And you will get hard to maintain code, because you're working at a very low level. So the cost is in development time and maintenance time."

Creating Server application using CAsyncSocket prasanna kankanalapalli13-Oct-04 0:52 prasanna kankanalapalli 13-Oct-04 0:52  I am creating a server application using CAsyncSocket , i am able to recieve information from a client , how could i send reply back to connected client , at present i am able to accept only one client how could i make it for multiple clients... this is code that i had written... here async is a class derived from CAsyncSocket.... void async::OnAccept(int nErrorCode) { if( recvsocket==NULL ) recvsocket = new async; //Create the new connection if( Accept( *recvsocket,NULL,NULL ) == 0 ) { return; } CAsyncSocket::OnAccept(nErrorCode); } here i declared recvsocket as async* recvsocket; in the async class.... void async::OnReceive(int nErrorCode) { char *pBuf = new char[1025]; int iBufSize = 1024; int iRecv, iErrCode; CString strRecv, Emsg; iRecv = Receive(pBuf,iBufSize); if (iRecv == SOCKET_ERROR) { iErrCode = GetLastError(); Emsg = "Error found! Error code: " + iErrCode; AfxMessageBox(Emsg); } else { pBuf[iRecv] = NULL; strRecv = pBuf; AfxMessageBox(strRecv); /* if (recvsocket->Send(pBuf,iBufSize) == SOCKET_ERROR) { AfxMessageBox("Send Error"); } else { AfxMessageBox("sended"); } */ } CAsyncSocket::OnReceive(nErrorCode); } Thank u. Prasanna Interfacing with C# .net web service from C++ .net Member 131514813-Oct-04 0:31 Member 1315148 13-Oct-04 0:31  I had to create a Win 32 dll in C++ to be able to link it to Clarion. I usually use C# and don't know C++ very well. This dll works fine but I am struggling to interface to my C# web service from this C++ dll. I have added my Web service to the Project as a web reference. In the dll I can see the web service name space but not the procedures in that service. Is it possible top link from a C++ dll to a C# web service ?.. If possible How??

Manikandan12-Oct-04 23:40 Manikandan 12-Oct-04 23:40  I wanna set real time priority to my application. At first a loader program runs myapp. Then I want to get the process id using exe name. With exe name i must be able to set its priority to REALTIME. My concept may sound correct but i dont know how to program it. Anybody can help me;P Re: RealTime Priority?

Antony M Kancidrowski13-Oct-04 2:33 Antony M Kancidrowski 13-Oct-04 2:33  If you have control over the loader program you can use CreateProcess() to launch your application and use REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS in the creation flag. Otherwise use SetPriorityClass()within your application to REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS - this will ensure that your application runs at Realtime priority always. I would be carefull when creating programs that run at realtime as they *will* hog the processor and you can easily prevent other applications from responding. Ant. I'm hard, yet soft.

Manikandan13-Oct-04 5:22 Manikandan 13-Oct-04 5:22  I tried...but it doesn't work. I am in VC6. Does this stuffs work under VC6? In the loader program i am using the below code, STARTUPINFO suInfo; PROCESS_INFORMATION procInfo; CString m_Process; m_Process.Format(_T("%s\\my.exe"),curDir); memset (&suInfo, 0, sizeof(suInfo)); suInfo.cb = sizeof(suInfo); ::CreateProcess(m_Process, NULL, // can also be NULL NULL, NULL, FALSE, REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS, NULL, NULL, &suInfo, &procInfo); if (procInfo.dwThreadId == NULL) { AfxMessageBox("nope"); } else { ::SetThreadPriority(&procInfo.dwThreadId,THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST); } When I check in process viewer the class priority is "Very High", the thread priority remain "normal". Also when a thread runs in "my.exe" it's not given the highest priorities, i am free to access other programs. Re: RealTime Priority?

Manikandan13-Oct-04 6:20 Manikandan 13-Oct-04 6:20  Hi Ant, my application is time sensitive. even mouse move will affect its normal operation. This is why i have to suspend other programs when my exe run a thread. Actually i found a standalone program in the net that list out all the running programs (I give you the link asap). When i set the priority to real time (24). I found my program running fine while i cant even access the mouse. But i want to do this programmatically. Re: RealTime Priority?

Even if you set the process realtime priority and thread realtime priority the time scheduler can interrupt your process and will do it usually in the worsest possible time. Re: RealTime Priority?

The problem that I have is that a piece of software that I am working on used a lot of arrays and matrices (i.e. float* and float**), the problem that we where having was that the program was leaking memory like there was no tomorrow (about a meg every 10secs) and the program was crashing at 'innocent' parts of the code. After spending quite a while trying to solve these errors I decided to go at it with a sledge hammer and change all of the arrays and matrices to STL vectors (i.e. vector for the arrays and a vector <vector> for the matrices). I've now finished making the changes and the program no longer leaks memory or crashes, however it now runs at about 50% slower. I've changed where the vectors are created so that they are only created once. This has improved things quite a lot however it is still noticibly slower about 10%, does anyone have any other easy optimisation methods that I can implement. I've left the way that the program accesses the data the same using the [] and [][] brackets. Any thoughts or suggestions will be gratefully received! Andy Re: Vectors vs Arrays V.12-Oct-04 23:37 V. 12-Oct-04 23:37  Hi, If the type is known (in your case float) you could write your own vector class. Do the maintance (new/delete) in there and use the good old (double if necessary) arrays. Vector classes are always quite slow. If speed is primary you should use arrays. hope this helps...

Saves a lot of time spent allocating and copying progressively bigger blocks of memory.

Kevin Re: Vectors vs Arrays Maximilien13-Oct-04 0:56 Maximilien 13-Oct-04 0:56  well, I think that if speed is important, you should go back and figure out why your application is leaking memory ... if using VC++ compile in debug mode, and use the DEBUG_NEW define macro to help you find where exactly is the leak; and/or use BoundChecker or some other 3rd party software helper to find te leaks. you found ( from you other post ) that you copy a lot of arrays, maybe that's where you are leaking memory ... remember that for each new there should be a delete and for each new [] there should be a delete [] Maximilien Lincourt Your Head A Splode - Strong Bad Re: Vectors vs Arrays mcsherry13-Oct-04 2:40 mcsherry 13-Oct-04 2:40  thanks everyone for your suggestions, what I've done is build the release version and it 'appears' to be fast enough for our needs.
