• Magos294963 Handling exceptions thrown from a DLL compiled with /clr within a pure C++ host application

  Greetings! I have an application that needed to be compiled in pure C++ to support some statically linked libraries that my company has written, but I wanted to take advantage of the ease of C# programming with VS2005 and .Net 2.0. My application has three components then: a managed assembly with the bulk of the application code, a DLL used for marshalling the few calls that the application will make, and the host executable itself. The problem I'm having is with regards to how to throw exceptions from code within the managed DLL to be caught by pure unmanaged code in my application. Every time I try to do this, I get the following message: "An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException' occurred in (my m ...Show All

• ScorpEagle debugger error

  It's called "No Debugging Information" error. It says "Debugging information for 'name.exe' cannot be found or does not match. Binary was not built with debugging information." I get this when ever I hit the debugging button. Can anyone help me with this Hi, well, your executable does not need any of your variable or function names to execute it only uses memory addresses, except for some symbols which are exported to be used by other programs. So debugging an executable gives you not much information what code is executed when you look at the assembly instructions. With the pdb files you get your variable and function names back and they can be connected to your source code, so in ...Show All

• perstam linking of dependant projects

  I have a solution with 2 projects... Project a is a console app with MFC support and project B is a dll with MFC support. I have set project A to depend on project B. When I build the solution it fails as there are unresolved externals (from Project B) I have turned in the verbose option on the linker and can see that the lib isn't scanned. Is there somthing else I need to do to get my project to build Robin I thought thats what normaly happened (has done since VC4!) I had looked at the linker/command line settings initiall and hadn't seen it and thought that it was hidden due to the dependancies settings. The only other settings I have found is in Linker/General Link Library Dependencies ...Show All

• SuperSaiyanZero How to override PostNcDestroy in modeless dialog?

  Using MFC, I have a modeless dialog. I want to add an override for PostNcDestroy. In VS6, I would have done this using ClassWizard. In VS2005, there is no ClassWizard, so I tried to use the dialog's Properties window. But there doesn't seem to be any section there which is appropriate. Do we now have to enter the virtual function overrides by hand If you haven't done this yet: right-click the dialog, Add Class, fill out the Class wizard properties. Open the generated .h file, put the cursor on the class constructor. In the Properties Window, click the "Overrides" icon. Select "PostNcDestroy" and select <Add> in the combobox. Moving to C++ general. Sorry for the la ...Show All

• nagajim VS C++ Forms Designer

  I'm having a few problems with the C++ windows form designer. I love being able to create forms in C++ by dragging and dropping controls, etc. but it seems very easy to break this functionality. The current problem or issue is this: If you create a new form in a project (Add New Item -> Windows Form) you are shown the form in designer view. You can then make changes, add controls, save it etc. You can of course also view the code i.e. everything is hunky dory. However if you then at some point (and after saving it) choose to exclude it from the project and then add it back to the project you lose the ability to view the form with the designer. You can't right click on the file in the solution explorer window and choose the view de ...Show All

• Matthew Lebo28574 Best approach for IPC...? Confusion about what to use...

  Dear all I have been thinking the last few days of a best way to achieve this task: I have two pieces of software. They are both independent application and are final products.(i cant modify the soure).But they both provide an API listing methods that i might want to use to extend some functionality. What i would like to do is as follows: If i am in PROGRAM A and i click the mouse i would like to transfer the mouse click to PROGRAM B.Or if i drag the mouse in PROGRAM A i would like to do the same event in PROGRAM B and vice versa. The API specifies how to do the clicks and drags in both applications but the problem is how to initiate those functions...... I was doing some work and i can identify the window handles and thought that i can s ...Show All
