Can Win32 Dll loads menu in demand ?

Change the Output Directory in the project settings. You should change it such that the executeable and the dll binary gets placed in the same directory. It is controlled via the /OUT:filename linker setting.

In win32, you have to do like this to create menus dynamically using the below:-
CreatePopupMenu();
AppendMenu(...);
TrackPopupMenu(...)

Not sure if you want the same thing.

It works everywhere. After all MFC is a layer on top of win32.

Yeah you are right Sir, if you aren't hacking into actual MFC codes, MFC classes are not available when you create Win32 based dlls

Hi everybody,

How can I monitor a specific port in my computer and determine every single byte sent/received into that port.

Specifically I want to monitor the HTTP protocol port 80, so any program sends or receives data on that port, its data will be visible to me.

Please help me, cause I need it very much

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanx

Deploy layered service providers(LSP).
You can track the statistics then.

Hello Sir,
Sorry to trouble you, LSP would be very difficult option when you targetting small computer.. also for installing LSP dll you need admin right... Please correct me if i am wrong!.

I believe Hooking Winsock.dll or using Free Ware library like WinpCap would better in this situation!

Hook winsock.dll or look for packet filtering library like
WINpCap[^]

winpcap as I remember when I last played with sometime back deploys a filter driver. You need install rights for that Smile | :)

Hooking winsock.dll is restrictive. As someone pointed out iphelper apis would help, but it would work only on 2000/XP and above.

LSP works everywhere and is safe for what he is looking for.

But installing and Debugging LSP dll is itself it cumbersome task... hooking would be safe bet as you easily hook and unhook that dll according to your need but for LSP dll you have restart your computer...

Hello,

I got the following compiling error:

c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\mfc\include\afxtempl.h(86) : error C2679: binary '=' : no operator defined which takes a right-hand operand of type 'const struct PolygonX' (or there is no acceptable conversion)
c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\mfc\include\afxtempl.h(396) : see reference to function template instantiation 'void __stdcall CopyElements(struct PolygonX *,const struct PolygonX *,int)' being compiled

I am very strange because file "c:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\mfc\include\afxtempl.h" is not a file in my project. How can I solve that?

I am almost exausted by this problem. A lot of thanks if someone helps.
