if you still want to use pointers in your code, you see this example
#include<stdio.h>
#include <malloc.h>
main()
{
int *hello;
printf("Hi, Enter any value > ");
hello=(int*)malloc(sizeof(int));
scanf("%d",hello);
switch (*hello)
{
case 1: printf("your 1 luck number is > %d\n",*hello); break;
case 2: printf("your 2 luck number is > %d\n",*hello);break;
case 3: printf("your 3 luck number is > %d\n",*hello);break;
default: printf("your 4 luck number is > %d\n",*hello);
}
}

Hi,
I have an application residing on a server that multiple users can run from their own PC's. I would like any one instance of the application to be able to notify all other instances that a data file has been updated, ideally, providing information regarding the record that has changed.
I cant use a client/server approach as the server is (for us anyway) simply storage space, I cant run applications on there.
Im not sure if a Mutex would work here as each person is running the app in their own address space. TCP/IP messages might work but with dynamic IP addresses, this might prove difficult.
Anyone have any suggestions? I could be missing the obvoius here!
TIA
Tony

Sounds like you need what is called "true peer to peer" networking. The key would be how to handle discovery. I have no idea how true p2p does that.
What they call p2p hybrid networks use servers to assist in the discovery process. This does not appear to be an option for you.
Perhaps using UDP for discovery is possible.
If you have a firewall in the network that only allows port 80 then I think you are hosed.

You could play with file locking.
Lock various regions of a file on that server -- to denote things.
Personally, I prefer the tcp-ip method. It may be a little work to get going, but it's the richest solution.

Since the application binary resides on a server you could place a COM object on the same server to manage updates. The application would still run on the client but all running instances would communicate (using DCOM) with an update component which runs on the server. The update component would inform its clients of changes using connection points.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I had also considered DCOM but as I understood it, this wouls still need a 'server application' to be running on the server. I was also put off DCOM because of its problems with NAT with remote access which, no doubt someone will want to do at some stage.
I would be very interested in your comments.
Thanks
Tony

is there a #define or something i can do to set a double to infinty without doing much math, or any?

The max value of a double is well below infinity.

Computers would no longer need people if they could handle infinite numbers.
And I doubt people would need computers if we could handle them ourselves.

The easiest way is to perform a divide by 0 with floating point exceptions disabled - 1.0 / 0.0 will do the trick. However, note that most of the math functions don't work with infinite numbers. You can disable floating point exceptions using _controlfp().
Obviously, use -1.0 / 0.0 if you want -ve infinity.
BTW, you can represent infinity with a float or a double, despite what others have said... See here[^]

There are some defines in float.h that might be of use: DBL_MAX, FLT_MAX, etc.

I have a variable (CString) Username which has a username.
And a variable (Byte) m_type.
If Username starts and ends with _ (f.ex _John_)
then m_type = 0 (emploee)
Else m_type = 1 (client)
How i type these in C++ MFC code ?

see CString's Length and GetAt member functions.
if (str.GetAt(0)=='_') ... etc. use Length to make sure you don't try to GetAt a character that's past the end of the string.

there is a way Getat(0) =="_" (from left)
GetAt(0)=="_" (from right) ? (so dont need to use length
|
|
|
|
|
yes, there is. it's called "Right"
but you still need to know how long the string is, because GetAt, Left, Right and Mid will all fail if you try to get characters past the end of the string.

If you are even remotely familar with the preprocessor, this should explain it:
#ifdef _WIN32 // Win32 doesn't support __export
#define STDMETHODCALLTYPE __stdcall
#else
#define STDMETHODCALLTYPE __export __stdcall
#endif
koumodaki wrote: __export
__declspec(dllexport) allows you to export functions, data and objects.

Hmm.. isn't detecting the endianess at runtime a bit too late?

not necessarily. for example, if you're writing cross-platform code that reads a particular format of binary file, and you know the files are always written in Intel order, you can write ReadShort and ReadInt functions that will convert those data types on-the-fly to the appropriate order, for the machine running the code.
