Have you verified the second argument is what you expect? Have you tried a string literal?

This is not an answer to your question, but I'm just curious. Don't take it personally.

Are you setting a Chinese password? WTF | :WTF:

It must be difficult to type those characters even when you see them. How possibly can you be sure of what's being typed when all you see would be asterisks. Unsure | :~

Usually you have to type two times the new password. For a Chinese one, you have to do it eight times.

Are you able to type in Chinese character into the control without password style at first? The app is fully Unicode?

I am able to type Chinese character into a CEdit control with and without password style. There's something else wrong I guess.

I don't know, but I pressed some random keys and this character[^] appeared. I may not be able to reproduce the thing though.

I promise never to set a Chinese password. No, really.

CMimeMessage error please help

Hi all,

I have a project that uses unicode character set this snippet gives me an error:

CMimeMessage msg;
CoInitialize(0);
msg.SetSender(L"Administrator@redmap.com");
msg.SetSenderName(A2T("Redmap Networks"));
msg.AddRecipient(EmailAddress);
strValue = W2A(EmailAddress);

char dom[100]="";
int a = GetDomain(strValue.c_str(), dom);
if (a == 0){
	strValue = dom; 
	msg.SetSubject(A2T("Download Notification"));

The bold part gives me errors and i found them here(atlmime.h):

inline BOOL SetSenderName(LPCTSTR szName, UINT uiCodePage = 0) throw()
	{
		if (szName == NULL)
			return FALSE;

		CHeapPtr<char> szNamePtr;
		UINT nLen(0);

		BOOL bRet = AtlMimeConvertString(m_spMultiLanguage, uiCodePage, szName, &szNamePtr, &nLen);		if (bRet)
		{

It seems that m_spMultiLanguage must be initialized, how do I do that?

I tried calling CoInitialize(0) before feeling up msg it wont work. Any advice?

Thanks,
Jayjay

I am in the process of reading the Book "Windows 95 with MFC" by Jeff Prosise. I am using the first edition of the book. I have compiled the program Paint4 which is the first example given of
the Document/View Architecture. I have copied the code directly from the CD. With two very minor
changes, the code compiles but fails to run. I am wondering, if this example is known to be bad. I looked around on the internet for a list of know errors in this book. However, I could not find such a list. I would like to get this example running, however, I am finding it hard to debug. The program bombs out inside MFC code.

Any advice?

Thanks
Bob

Does the program fail to start, or does it start and then stop before any window is drawn? How about setting a breakpoint in the app's InitInstance() to find out?

Thanks for the responses. Here are the details on the error: It dies with an assertion
error in the following MFC module:

void CSingleDocTemplate::SetDefaultTitle(CDocument* pDocument)
{
CString strDocName;
if (!GetDocString(strDocName, CDocTemplate::docName) ||
strDocName.IsEmpty())
{
// use generic 'untitled'
ENSURE(strDocName.LoadString(AFX_IDS_UNTITLED));
}
pDocument->SetTitle(strDocName);
}

Here is my InitInstance method.

BOOL CPaintApp::InitInstance ()
{
SetRegistryKey (TEXT("Programming Windows 95 with MFC"));
LoadStdProfileSettings ();

CSingleDocTemplate* pDocTemplate;
pDocTemplate = new CSingleDocTemplate (
IDR_MAINFRAME,
RUNTIME_CLASS (CPaintDoc),
RUNTIME_CLASS (CMainFrame),
RUNTIME_CLASS (CPaintView)
);

AddDocTemplate (pDocTemplate);
RegisterShellFileTypes (TRUE);

CCommandLineInfo cmdInfo;
ParseCommandLine (cmdInfo);

if (!ProcessShellCommand (cmdInfo))
return FALSE;

m_pMainWnd->DragAcceptFiles ();
return TRUE;
}

The code reaches the call to ProcessShellCommand. However, it dies in that call. Here is the call stack when it dies.

The path of execution, includes the following method:
CPaintDoc::CPaintDoc ()
{
m_lineArray.SetSize (0, 64);
}

While the code is dying inside an MFC module, I have to assume that it is not a bug with MFC. Since, I am doing this as a learning exercise, what is the best way for me to debug this?

Thanks

Environment Variables

I created an environment variable using the Windows System Properties page. In my program I called getenv("varname") to retrieve the value of my environment variable.

After changing the value of my variable, I can see the change when running my program from the desktop but I get the old value when running the program from within MS Vis C++ unless I restart Vis C++. Obviously Vis C++ reads the environment settings and uses them from that point on.

Is there any way to "refresh" the environment from within Vic C++ so that the next time I run my program, it picks up the new value?
Thanks!

I don't know if there's a way to do that in Visual Studio.

This[^] may at least explain why it happens.

Looks like the only way to get the new value is to read it from the registry. Using regedit I can see the new value under key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Environment\\SSSRights
which has a value of "A".

But there seems to be something wrong with my code becomes I always get a return value of 87 which apparently means ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER when I call RegQueryValueEx(). hMyKey has a valid handle after call to RegOpenKeyEx().

Here is my code:

HKEY hMyKey;
long lResult;
LPDWORD pKeyType = REG_SZ;
LPDWORD pKeySize = 0;
char* strKeyName = "SSSRights";
char* strKeyVal = "\0";

RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "Environment", 0, KEY_QUERY_VALUE, &hMyKey);

lResult = RegQueryValueEx(hMyKey, strKeyName, NULL, pKeyType, (LPBYTE)strKeyVal, pKeySize);

RegCloseKey(hMyKey);
