The connecttoserver function must need one or more parameters. Look in in "connecting.h" (or post it here) to see the parameters the method takes.

Hi.

How to use Visual C++ to create a program for Input/Output via USB port?

Many thanks for help.

What do you mean exactly when you say: 'via USB Port' ? Are you using a USB-To-Serial adapter or another USB device ?

Fir the second case, a driver is shipped with the device and there shoulb documentation included. You must open the port using the CreateFile function specifying the name of the device you want to access. Then you use the DeviceIoControl function to send command to the driver.

Hope this helps

I participate in a project in which I have to establish comminication betwen Digital Signal Processor and PC via USB. This is the beginning of the project and we don't know that DSP would be the best. I will give more information as soon as the specification of the project is more clear.

Thanks!

Hello,
I have a problem and I hope somebody will solve this, because I'm getting crazy.
I have to execute parallel commands from an application:
e.g: to execute paralel commands like:
dir & notepad.exe
where &=parallel operator

How can I make this, using commands like CreateProcess and system(char *) call, without creating new instances of my application ,and without using CreateThread function.
I know that this is posible, but I don't know how.

Thank you!

Hi,

I made a program that burns cd's and dvd's. But when I start burning a CD the main screen gets inactive. I can't use any buttons and when I minimize the screen, I can't get it back.

Does anybody know how to solve this?

Grtz

Your program is busy with the cd/dvd writing and cant handle any other stuff until it finishes the writing task.

To solve shift the cd/dvd writing task on to a separate thread. This would leave your main application window open for inputs.

All the Information of Installed Software on local system can be find here

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

you have to Enumerate the registry Key to know each installed Software.
For Enumertaion of registry key you can use these API->

<ul><br />
<li>RegEnumKey<br />
<li>RegEnumKeyEx<br />
</ul>

You can use socket and sendmessage

Hi
If the 2 apps are running on the same machine, you can use SendMessage but the information is limited to what you can squash into the WPARAM and LPARAM values (64 bits in total on 32 bit machine). If you need to exchange more info (most likely), consider a richer typed interface such as COM over memory-mapped files, etc, because it was designed with this scenario in mind.

If you're crossing the network between 2 machines, you're left with IP (TCP & UDP), HTTP (and SOAP/WebServices variants) or again COM (aka DCOM in this capacity, which incidentally runs over IP).
Using VC++;
For IP, you can use Windows Sockets (MFC or Win32 API), as has been suggested.
For HTTP, you can use WinInet (MFC or Win32 API), but this requires an web server (eg. IIS).
For COM, you're best off using ATL.

HTH

PS: You can use IP between 2 apps on the same machine, but it's arguably too contrived.

let IDC_LIST1 is ID of ListCtrl,
You can use this Small Piece of code to set Font
of CListCtrl.

<font color="00ff00">//Font Varible</font>
CFont m_fArial;

<font color="00ff00">
//Create Arial Font
</font>

m_fArial.CreateFont
 (14,0,0,0,FW_BOLD,
  FALSE,FALSE,FALSE,
  DEFAULT_CHARSET,
  OUT_DEFAULT_PRECIS ,
  CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS,
  DEFAULT_QUALITY,
  DEFAULT_PITCH,
  "Arial");

<font color="00ff00">
//Get Pointer of ListCtrl
</font>

CListCtrl *m_pList=(CListCtrl*)GetDlgItem(IDC_LIST1);

<font color="00ff00">
//Set Font
</font>

if(m_pList)
   m_pList->SetFont(&m_fArial);

Hi
From what I've seen there is inherently only 1 font per list control. I'd consider having an owner-draw list control, with a second font specifically for the header.

//Set Font
if (m_pList)
   m_pList->GetHeaderCtrl()->SetFont(&m_fArial);

The key here is to get a pointer to CListCtrl's embedded Header control.

onwards and upwards...
