• Visual Studio Express Editions using dll

  Hello I have problem. I instaled Visual c++ 2005 EE without SDK. I have files my library dll,h,deg,lib. How call this dll to use function inside dll Jaca Well, it should be the usual way. If you exported the functions in the dll using __declspec(dllexport) then using __declspec(dllimport) and linking with the lib file that was created when you compiled the dll is the way. If you don't have it then I'm afraid you'll have to get the PSDK to use the appropriate functions. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Class derived from abstract class with static members

  hi, i derive my class from the abstract Stream class. my class contains static members. one of them makes use of a static variable member, where an error is generated at compile time (C2259: cannot instantiate abstract class). of course this is due to the fact, that the static instance of the class is created at the first time, a static member is accessed. why is the restriction, that no objects can be created from abstract classes, also true for the static instance is there a way of get around this thanks! hi, thanks for your reply! the compiler stops at the red marked line ("error C2259: 'D2XX': cannot instantiate abstract class"): public ref class D2XX : public Stream { protected: ...Show All

• Visual C# Security and Authentication

  I have a C# .Net console application I wrote that is on server 1. It needs to copy files from server 1 to server 2. The location at server 2 is a shared drive with a domain user as the only user with access. I need assistance with code or tools that will allow my console app to impersonate this domain user so that it can appropriately authenticate to server 2 and copy the files over. I can run it logged into server 1 as the domain user, but I can't schedule it to run as this domain user. Please help. Thanks in advance. There is a very nice sample about impersonating the windows user credentials at the following link. Hope it helps you http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/cpimpersonation1.asp ...Show All

• .NET Development Finalizer guarantees for access to other objects

  When a finalizer runs are there any gurantees that any other object has not already been finalized This would include another object to which a reference in the finalizer's class still exists or a public static object in the finalizer's class, or any other class. Chris Lyon - MS wrote: Hi eldiener A class cannot explicitly call its finalizer, so your situation shouldn't arise. Besides, according to the Dispose Guidelines, the resource cleanup should be done in a protected dispose, and called by the finalizer in the case where public Dispose was not called.
