Keyboard functionality for IExplorerBrowser

6-Dec-18 8:49

This is just to debug a scenario that only happen in release I have to have a way of stopping the thread in release and attaching the debugger if there is a better way please share thanks

How can I get all keyboard functionality for IExplorerBrowser[^] in a MFC app ? I have context menu options available for mouse, but not for keyboard (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+A, etc.). Is there any method to have these commands in my app ? I am pretty sure that is possible, but I don't know how Smile | :)

Found Api's Causing Heap Corruption

These lines in My DrawItem Api are causing the heap corruption

C++

if(arrayptr[pdi->itemID] == NULL)
	        arrayptr[pdi->itemID] = new char(9);
	memset(arrayptr[pdi->itemID], 0x00, 9);
	memcpy(arrayptr[pdi->itemID], lpszText, 8);

Don't understand it as I allocated everything on the Heap

Quote:

Should be

C++

arrayptr[pdi->itemID] = new char[9];

Re: Found Api's Causing Heap Corruption CPallini You are Great thanks

WOW thanks good catch I didn't see however where the storage was initialized to 9 let me try

thanks

You are welcome.
Did you really need to use raw (C-like) arrays and new?

I am MainFrame programmer by trade wasn't sure how to copy the first 8 characters of the 45 character strings

Thanks

CComboBox list Appears After Trying to Close out Dialog

Re: CComboBox list Appears After Trying to Close out Dialog

Hi
I Decided to start a new thread because for a moment I thought I had fixed my problem of the Disappearing list with the following code

I added a point to an array pointer for the strings I wanted to add

C++

class Casidcombo :	public CComboBox
{
	DECLARE_DYNAMIC(Casidcombo)
	private:
		int cright, cbottom, ctop;

public:
	Casidcombo();
	~Casidcombo();
	char **arrayptr;
protected:
	
	virtual void MeasureItem(LPMEASUREITEMSTRUCT lpMeasureItemStruct);
	virtual void DrawItem(LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT pdi);
	virtual int CompareItem(LPCOMPAREITEMSTRUCT lpCompareItemStruct);
	virtual void DeleteItem(LPDELETEITEMSTRUCT lpDeleteItemStruct);
	DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
};

its the arrayptr not knowing exactly how may entries I would have I initialize it in the
OnInitDialogBox of the the Hosting Dialog

C++

m_Simple.arrayptr = new char *[j+1];
	for (int i = 0; i < j + 1; i++)
		m_Simple.arrayptr[i] = NULL;

In the DrawItem For The Combobox I copy of over part of the string

C++

if(arrayptr[pdi->itemID] == NULL)
	        arrayptr[pdi->itemID] = new char(9);
	memset(arrayptr[pdi->itemID], 0x00, 9);
	memcpy(arrayptr[pdi->itemID], lpszText, 8);

I then write it out

C++

dc.DrawText(
		arrayptr[pdi->itemID],
		8,
	    &pdi->rcItem,
		DT_CENTER | DT_SINGLELINE | DT_VCENTER);

The list now re-appears After I try closing out the Dialog by clicking on the 'X'
in the right hand Corner

I guess this drives the DrawItem function

My question is after appearing and disappearing initially (the list) of the ComboBox the vertical scroll bar is missing as well until I clisk on the 'X' in the right hand corner after which everything re-appears I guess that most Drive DrawItem I am still Baffled Why initially it disappears along with the scroll bar

This the last piece of code in the OnInitDialog

C++

ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
	ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);

		return TRUE;

This is my message map I only have a Measure Item Message
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(Casidcombo, CComboBox)
		ON_WM_MEASUREITEM()
	    	END_MESSAGE_MAP()

I have used user drawn ListView controls without problem in the past. I notice that you are using a CDC to draw the text in the view rather than responding to the notification messages and returning the relevant data. However, my sample does not use MFC so I may well be on the wrong track.

Richard there are two api in DrawItem that are not supported in Native Win32 FillSolidRect only thing close is FillRect which takes a brush

Regardless I was getting a heap corruption so I ran my code in debug with the following

C++

//	InitCommonControlsEx(&InitCtrls);
#if _DEBUG
	afxMemDF = allocMemDF | checkAlwaysMemDF;
#endif

and at exiting DrawItem got the following

C++

#if defined _NO_CRT_STDIO_INLINE
;
#else
{
    int const _Result = __stdio_common_vsnprintf_s(
        _CRT_INTERNAL_LOCAL_PRINTF_OPTIONS,
        _Buffer, _BufferCount, _MaxCount, _Format, _Locale, _ArgList);

    return _Result < 0 ? -1 : _Result;
}
#endif

Exiting DrawItem I am getting a heap corruption

Richard MacCutchan5-Dec-18 2:41

Re: CComboBox list Appears After Trying to Close out Dialog

You need to actually trace the code to see where the heap is getting corrupted. It is usually caused by writing too many bytes into an allocated buffer. Notice that __stdio_common_vsnprintf_s takes two values which indicate the length, so one of them could be wrong.

Re: CComboBox list Appears After Trying to Close out Dialog

5-Dec-18 2:50

I Did but I don't understand why

I am getting a list of Addreess Spaces information from z/os I only want to Add the the list box the Job Name. Asid information is 45 bytes the first 8 is the JobName. So the First would be *Master*

I moved the code which copies the first 8 charcates from CComboBox::DrawItem to the DialogBox

just got Debug Assert on the AddString I think I am doing everything right;

C++

m_Simple.arrayptr = new char *[j+1];
	traverse = instr;
	for (int i = 0; i < j + 1; i++)
	{
		m_Simple.arrayptr[i] = new char(9);
		memset(m_Simple.arrayptr[i], 0x00, 9);
		memcpy(m_Simple.arrayptr[i], traverse, 8);
		m_Simple.AddString(m_Simple.arrayptr[i]);
		traverse = (char *)traverse + 45;
	}

The twisted Arrow after the Debug Heap Assertion is pointing to

C++

traverse = (char *)traverse + 45

So I guess there is a problem with AddString

Not sure what I am doing wrong

Richard MacCutchan5-Dec-18 7:36

"undefined reference " error - what am I missing ?

5-Dec-18 7:36

I can only assume that your instr variable does not contain the number of 45 character fields that you think. However only the debugger could confirm that.

I am getting

undefined reference

error.

I have "included " relevant headers in souce files , I have "common path" in project includes (/usr/include /bluetooth ) ,
I can access "Open Declaration" in my IDE and it identifies function and its file...
I have no errors indicating missing

bluetooth/hci_lib.h

in text file...

What did I missed??

C++ function

C++

	int device_id = hci_get_route(NULL); // Passing NULL argument will retrieve the id of first avalaibe device
	if (device_id < 0) {
		printf("Error: Bluetooth device not found");
		exit(1);
	}
	return 0;
}

Error

At a guess it's a C file and you are dragging it into a C++ file and getting splattered by name mangling
Name mangling - Wikipedia[^]

The two solutions are in the above link under Handling of C symbols when linking from C++

Check are the bluetooth library files C or C++ Smile | :)

If C the easiest is probably include all the C header files like so

extern "C" {
   #include <bluetooth/hci_lib.h>
}

In vino veritas

Leon,
you are close, it is C file , but...

It has ( or SHOULD HAVE (?) ) __cplusplus defined and
that should make it work in C++

So where do I check if __cplusplus id actually defined ?

#ifndef __HCI_LIB_H
#define __HCI_LIB_H

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

I'll take a look what else can be "fixed" to make it go.
