Step through the code and see...

Since you have the source code, you can make a backup of it and then modify this file to help you debug. Use OutputDebugString() and the free dbgview from sysinternals.com (now MS). This works for release mode build.

My problem is that it never goes to this code in release mode. I've put a break point on it and it never hits it.
|
|
|
|

Ok, I have decided that the code is getting executed, its just that when I step through in release mode it doesn't show me the actual steps it is taking nor are the value of the variables in the debugger valid.
So back to my problem that prompted this message. My program gets an exception in release mode but not in debug, but if I can't step through the program or rely on the debug variables in release mode, then how do I find out what is causing the exception? Anyone???

So during install I'd like to be able to determine the FTP root directory.
Anyone know how??
Thanks!

Install of what? Root directory of what FTP? Where? I think you should provide much more information than that to get a usefull answer. Try explaining a bit what you want (i recommend editing your original post), good luck.

The problem is figuring out what the root directory of the FTP server is on a machine. Of course how to ensure FTP is installed and running would probably be a bonus question!!
I'm just giving a peek into what I'm working on when speaking of an installer. The installer isn't the problem.
Thanks..

I think finding that out isn't so trivial...i mean, there are probably tonns of FTP server softwares out there, each of them storing its root folder setting differently, in the registry, in some ini file, and so on... your best bet would be to make a connection to the FTP server but i don't know if the FTP protocol can tell you where the root folder is located on the local system. Also, as far as i know there might be different FTP root folders depending on the user who logs onto the server, so which one of the users would you want to use? I don't know much about installers, i hope someone else will give you a better answer.

Actually an ftp server should never tell a client what his root directory is, for security reasons. Some ftp servers don't even have a root directory, but have virtual roots, usually spread out over a number of nfs servers, for redundancy and performance.
If you're talking about the 'standard' ftp server that comes with IIS, it's root location will be in the registry and you may find it during an install. But it won't do you much good: it may be somewhere where you have no access, it may be on a network for which you have no credentials, it may be on a reparse point, it may be on a symbolic link, all situations that may trick into thinking you may do something with it, only to find it causes failure.

Install what ? where ? and why does an install program should know about the FTP server?
Do you need to configure something on the user's FTP site ?
Watched code never compiles.

Lesson learned today: Never hint at what the project actually does because it's really irrelevant and developers go there first!  I'd probably do the same thing... 
How can I find the root directory for an FTP server? (IIS) I've checked the registry.. not there. Not sure where else it could be stored.. Possibly a configuration file somewhere??

I'm using a ListView to display certain data, yet I can't select the row!
This is the DWORD style used in CreateWindow:
WS_CHILD|LVS_REPORT|LVS_EX_DOUBLEBUFFER|LVS_SINGLESEL|WS_TABSTOP|WS_VISIBLE
The only selection can only be done on Item, but not any of the SubItems.
|
|
|
|
|
Because you have not set the LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT style.

|
|
|
|
|
WS_CHILD|LVS_REPORT|LVS_SINGLESEL|LVS_EX_GRIDLINES|LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT|LVS_EX_DOUBLEBUFFER|WS_VISIBLE
Still no changes everything is still the same!
|
|

You need to change these settings with something like :
SendMessage(hWndView,
LVM_SETEXTENDEDLISTVIEWSTYLE,
LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT | LVS_EX_GRIDLINES,
LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT | LVS_EX_GRIDLINES
);
in your view initialization code. Take a look at the MSDN documentation for LVM_SETEXTENDEDLISTVIEWSTYLE.
It's time for a new signature.

Hy . I want to build my CSmtp client MFC compatible class , and for that I need to call gethostbyname , but here I'm stuck ... because I use CString , and function parameter is 'const char FAR *' ... my questions is : how can I convert CString to const char * ?
P.S. If you know some SMTP client tutorial , it will be very good ! Thank you !
|
|
|
|
|
You will have to do no conversion. CString already provides you with the LPCTSTR operator!
“Follow your bliss.” – Joseph Campbell
|
|
|
|
|
Ok , and how to put LPCTSTR operator in the function argument ? Because I try in some dummy way , but it failed ... can you draw an little code sample ?
|
|
|
|
|
How did you called? Can you put your code here so we can see what's going on?
|
|
|
|
|
P.S.Here is my trial :
LPHOSTENT lpHostEnt = gethostbyname(sServer.GetBuffer(1 + sServer.GetLength()));
sServer.ReleaseBuffer();
but seems not working ...
|
|
|
|
|
short nProtocolPort;
LPHOSTENT lpHostEnt;
LPSERVENT lpServEnt;
SOCKADDR_IN sockAddr;
SOCKET hServerSocket = INVALID_SOCKET;
struct in_addr addr;
sTemp = sServer;
sTemp = sTemp.Left(1);
if(atoi(sTemp) == 0)
{
lpHostEnt = gethostbyname(sServer.GetBuffer(1 + sServer.GetLength()));
sServer.ReleaseBuffer();
}
else
{
addr.s_addr = inet_addr(sServer.GetBuffer(1 + sServer.GetLength()));
sServer.ReleaseBuffer();
if(addr.s_addr == INADDR_NONE)
{
m_nError = CSMTP_BAD_IPV4_ADDR;
return INVALID_SOCKET;
}
else lpHostEnt = gethostbyaddr((char *)&addr,4,AF_INET);
}
if(lpHostEnt == NULL)AfxMessageBox("lpHostEnd is NULL !");
|
|
|
|
|
Of course
sServer = "smtp.gmail.com"
|
|
|
|
|
Do not call GetBuffer() unless you are modifying the internal buffer.
CString sServer;
LPHOSTENT lpHostEnt = gethostbyname(sServer);
