• SPDOTNET Can I debug???

  Hi, I worte an MFC program and compiled it in "Debug", but I compiled it in "Release" configuration. Then, I modified my code for additional functionality, but I can't debug the program anymore with "Debug" configuration. It gave me error like "Debug Assertion Failed" when I ran program in "Debug" mode. I do want to debug my program for its correctness. Do you have any idea how I can debug Thanks, vcboy An assertion in your program has fired. Assertions are enabled on debug builds and not on release builds. You are debugging, from what I can tell. Where is the assertion (i.e. which line of code ) ...Show All

• Mark Macumber AfxRegisterWndClass() troubles

  Hello all, in "CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(...)", directly underneath "cs.style = ..." and where it says "// Modify the Window class or styles here by modifying the CREATESTRUCT cs" I've added the following: cs.lpszClass = AfxRegisterWndClass(CS_DBCLKS | CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW, AfxGetApp()->LoadStandardCursor(IDC_ARROW), CreateSolidBrush(RGB(0,0,0)), ::LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION)); My client area always remains white, however. Why doesn't this change its color to black Can't find the solution on the web nor in any of my MFC references. As always, many thanks everyone. In my opinion the displayed background actually does not belong to your CMainFrame ...Show All

• leok How do you compile a COM compliant C++ DLL in Visual Studio 6?

  I am trying to use a DLL written in C++ and compiled in Visual Studio 6 in .NET. Unfortunately, I cannot reference the DLL in .NET because it is not COM compliant. I am not very familiar with Visual Studio 6 and was hoping there is a fairly easy way to compile C++ code into a COM compliant DLL. Thanks for you help, both suggestions are helpful. You don't have to add COM to existing C/C++ DLLs to call them from .NET. You can use P/Invoke to call functions written in C/C++ (but identifying C functions is far more simple). Look up DllImport on the web for more info. The best way to create a COM object is through the ATL wizard. If you ha ...Show All

• rajendra patel Weird "Goto" statement

  I was reading an article entitled "The Case for Virtual Register Machines," where it had this code snippet: typedef void *Inst; void engine() { static Bytecode program[] = { iadd /* ... */ }; Bytecode *ip; Inst dispatch_table = { &&nop, &&aload_null, .... }; int *sp; goto dispatch_table[*ip]; iadd: dest = ip[1]; s1 = ip[2]; s2 = ip[3]; reg[dest]=reg[s1]+reg[s2]; ip+=4; goto dispatch_table[*ip]; } I've never seen "goto" used that way. I thought it could only be used for jumping to labels. Anyone know what this is about You are correct: neither Standard C++ nor Standard C supports syntax like this - they only support goto label. Having said that I have seen syntax like this i ...Show All

• bilalso Visual C++ 5.0 Support

  Hi All, I do not think this is the correct forum for asking this question, but I have also not found a suitable forum to post this question. The question is 'Has Microsoft Withdrawn support for Visual C++ 5.0 or Visual C++ 6.0 " This is important as my department would go on and buy Visual Studio 2005 and invest the time required to convert all our projects created in Visual C++ 5.0 to Visual Studio 2005. thanks and regards Saby Yes the official support for VC 6.0 and previous versions already expired.

• r3zonance STL Thread Safety

  So, I looked for STL thread safety, and there are only two hits:  One in Visual C++ Express Edition , and the other in Visual C# Language . Where's the best place to discuss MSVC 2005's STL thread safety -MM This is probably a better location. C# knows nothing about the Standard C++ Library. The current C++ Standard Library - like the rest of the current C++ Standard - knows nothing about threads and thread-safety - it assumes a single threaded world. This may change in the next revision of the C++ Standard but for now if you are using the C++ Standard Library in a multithreaded environment then you, the programmer, are responsible for handling all threading issues.

• calmal20 Making the IP Address control remember my settings

  I have an SDI based MFC application in VS dot NET-2003,in which I create a dialog box on an event.The dialog box has tabs,one of which contains the IP address control.

• Priyank Gajera LNK2001: using unmanangedC++ in manC++

  Hi, i'm writing a new user-interface for a small software-company. The old interface should be replaced by the new one, the "inner core" should stay. The old program was written in unmanaged C++, but now I'm writing the user-interface in C#, so I have to use class wrappers. While building the managed C++-project (in a solution with the unman.

• Troy Lundin How to Link Multiple Project

  Hi Experts, I have created two projects in a single workspace in Visual C++. How can I Link the two projects to work together Thanks Tonmoy To use COM, you need to recreate your projects so they are ATL based, and your public interface is defined in IDL. If you have 3 windows programs, WM_COPYDATA is a more sensible way to go, this allows you to pass messages between programs. Hi, Thanks for your valuable comment. I don't want to copy the files into one project. Becasue I would like to know how to implement the mechansim using COM / other (as you said in case of exe). I gave an simple example to learn. So, pls help me about how I can use COM. Thanks Tonmoy ...Show All
