I asked you regarding structure pointer as value because in the function you've mentioned using -> operator instead of . (dot) operator to access the members.

map RectMap; <- error
typedef unsigned key_type; <- any type you want
std::map<key_type, SRect> RectMap; <- OK
SRect sr = {iX, iY, iW, iH}; <- should work
RectMap[iID] = sr;
OR
RectMap[iID] = {iX, iY, iW, iH}; <- should work
Only write something like RectMap[iID]->iX if you are storing pointers to type sRect in the map; which would be bad and stuped unless you have a really good reason for doing so.
If you are storing pointers ( std::map<key_type, SRect*> ) in the map, then you will need to write a method to free the memory pointed to by all those elements before you allow the map to be destroyed. If you are storing the actual data instead ( std::map<key_type, SRect> ), then the clean up will be automatic when the map is destroyed.
To recap:
... BAD ...
std::map<key_type, SRect*> RectMap; <- bad
RectMap[key] = new SRect(iX, iY, iW, iH); <- this is why it is bad
void cleanup_before_destruction() <- and this is why it is bad
{
std::map<key_type, SRect*>::iterator i;
for( i = RectMap.begin(); i != RectMap.end(); ++i )
delete *i;
}
... GOOD ...
std::map<key_type, SRect> RectMap; <- good
SRect sr(iX, iY, iW, iH);
RectMap[key] = sr;

Hi Friends
Please see the following code
<br />
wstring str1 = L"Test";<br />
wchar_t* buffer = new wchar_t[str1.length()+2];<br />
wcscpy(buffer, str1.c_str());<br />
Now here How much bytes extra I need to allocate for buffer for '\0' terminating character?
+2 or +1?
- Vikram S

You only need one extra element to hold '\0' because you're allocating with type wchar_t which is two bytes in size

compiler will itself take care of sizeof NULL, you just have to allocate only 1 extra space to wchar_t

Hi,
I want to create a service which will launch a application which has GUI. I would like this application as a interactive with user. Is there any way by which I can create service.
Thanks

User the CreateProcessAsUser to launch such an application.
Service run in high privilege and so such apps must be launched with the security token of an interactive user.
In Vista interactive services are not allowed.

The CreateService documentation[^] mentions the SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS flag for the dwServiceType flag, which seems applicable?
There's also this page[^], which talks about interactive services?
Does that help?

Thanks for your reply. But I tried with this but due to this there is a problem in service start up.

Vista is explicitly disallowing interactive services nowadays - they strongly encourage some sort of IPC between the service and a client user program.

Sounds fair enough, to be honest. I'm not using Vista anywhere, so haven't fallen over that (yet).
If it was a WinXP/Win2000 compatibility problem, however, I'd be all over it - the standard desktop OS where I work is still Win2000....
|
|
|
|

I only use Vista at home so I can keep my experience up. Work is all XP/2K.
But I try and keep an eye on (eg) Vista so I don't end up making a pain for myself in the future. I'm actually a bit of a fan of UAC - the only problem with it is that so much software is written arrogantly, assuming it has the right to piddle all over my machine.

You (not necessary Mr Dootson) have sold me a game. What possible justification can you give to get me to give you admin rights? It's handy for you? Tough, write better code.

At least games have a selfish excuse of installing DRM. It may not be a /good/ excude, but it's plausible. But the amount of 'real' apps that misbehave...

Couldn't agree more - that's why I've always (since we started using Windows 2000) been an advocate of doing all development work (or testing, at very least) as a non-privileged user, rather than as admin. That's the only way I can be reasonably sure that I've implemented solutions that are appropriate for the environment in which they're to be deployed - or alternatively be able to identify exactly where you have to step outside the security limitations.

|
|
|

I do test under a limited user, but I don't develop that way - too much of a pain. But if my code breaks my machine, at least it's my own fault...
Quite a lot of my work is interfacing with other peoples hardware libraries, so opening up the odd security hole for them can be a bit painful for my principles.

You have bought, if have you (not necessary Mr Clarke  ), the game. Now, how can that game meet all your expectations about its performances without hacking your machine? So, please, first make it admin and then bomb Los Angeles!

Sir,
I have a MS Access 2003 database which have a data field(a column) with ASCII font.Now,I need the database to be supported by unicode 5.1 norms.Do conversion from mdb to SQLite3 will meet the requirement?Do I have to convert the entire data to a new unicode 5.1 enabled font?.Please help me.

There is a general database forum where you might get help.
I certainly have no clue about your problem... And as I am the bestest ever expert at C++, noone else will.
(Ok, they might...)
