I learned on the 8080/85, Z80, and 6809 processors.
Ah, the good old days.
My first C compiler was ECO-C. This was back in the days when a C compiler generated ASM code which you then sent into the assembler.

I have a little experience with ASM, learnt at Uni and played at home, I'll give a look at it but maybe another problem has come out.
I have installed WinXP few weeks ago and I notice that no symbols are found during debugging. Maybe I have to download this 150MB package from MS site (windowsxp.x86.fre.rtm.symbols.exe)
Another strange thing appened: if I put AfxMessageBox(s1) before strcpy(), the bug vanishes:
void Buggy( char* result )
{
char s1[6];
char s2[5];
strcpy(s1,"abcde");
strcpy(s2,"BUG!");
AfxMessageBox(s1);
// DOESNT WORK
strcpy(result,"anystring");
strcat(result,s1);
}
It displays "abcde" and 'result' is filled with "anystringabcde". If I comment out AfxMessageBox(s1) 'result' is filled with "anystringBUG!".
I have made several programs, some little, others bigger, but I had never seen these strange beahviours, especially because on other PCs compiles fine. I must admit that I'm not expert in debugging, I prefer to proceed slowly, and run the program just after having added/removed some lines of code.
Lately I have installed and removed MySQL, MSDE, various ServicePacks, maybe something has been wrong and I didn't notice.

Maybe one of the MFC DLL's has gone back to an old version. About now I'd suggest re-installing VC++.

Memory in debug mode is buffered so that memory overflow conditions that can crash in release mode can work fine in debug mode. My first guess is that 'result' does not point to a block of memory of the size you are expecting. Are you sure you allocated sufficient memory for the trailing null character? result will need to point to at least 16 bytes of memory for this code to work properly ( "anything" = 9 s1 = 6 NULL char = 1.)

Yes it was large enough, 255 chars. The problem is that doesnt crash, but display a string contained in another char-vector, as if they did overlapped, I don't know.
I thought of a NULL terminating that I could have missed so that the string 1 could extend to string 2 that was declared just after, but it's not the case. Turing Optimizations to Default fixes this bug on my machine, while in other pcs runs fine without altering this setting

Sorry, I did not read the last line in your original post, so I misunderstood the nature of the bug. It sounds to me as though you have a damaged stack. The issue is *still* one of debug mode buffering memory more generously than release mode. You are going to need to trace back through the call stack to figure out where the problem is. Stack overflow bugs can cause all kinds of bizarre issue like this. Good hunting.

Which SP are you running for VC6? Either SP5 or SP6 is the latest.

i need to trap double click of a list control thats in my dialog based application ( min my dialog box). I have a list control class that handles messages. So i handled NM_DBLCLK message and i type casted NMHDR* to NM_LISTVIEW* to the item on which user made dbl clk. this didnt work ( i got iItem = -1 ). So i type casted NMHDR* to NMITEMACTIVATE* and tried getting iItem. I still got -1. So how can i get the item in which dbl clk is made. thanks.
ps:i am running windows2000 and VC++6.0

Here's how I handled that situation - I wanted to double click on a list control item and pop it up in a message box. Sorry about the lack of formatting, I'm sure there's a way to do that but...
First, handled NM_DBLCLK,
ON_NOTIFY(NM_DBLCLK, IDC_MSG, OnDblclkMsg)
then,
void CTestAppDlg::OnDblclkMsg(NMHDR* pNMHDR, LRESULT* pResult)
{
// m_lcMsg is the list control
POSITION pos = m_lcMsg.GetFirstSelectedItemPosition();
if (pos) {
int iItem = m_lcMsg.GetNextSelectedItem(pos);
if (-1 != iItem) {
// this is just data that I associated when I added the item
MsgData* pData = (MsgData*)m_lcMsg.GetItemData(iItem);
if (GOOD_PTR(pData, MsgData)) {
MessageBox(pData->strFullMsg);
}
}
}
*pResult = 0;
}
One thing you need to be aware of is that unless you set a flag for selecting the entire row, you must double click on the first column or the click is ignored. You can do that with a call in OnInitDialog() like this:
m_lcMsg.SetExtendedStyle(m_lcMsg.GetExtendedStyle() | LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT);
Hope this helps...

Rather than using NM_DBLCLK you might need to handle LVN_ITEMACTIVE notification instead. Then you can cast the NMHDR * to a NMITEMACTIVE * without any problems.

Hi, I read the MSDN online and get the following sample of using AfxBeginThread:
UINT MyThreadProc( LPVOID pParam )
{
CMyObject* pObject = (CMyObject*)pParam;
if (pObject == NULL ||
!pObject->IsKindOf(RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyObject)))
return 1; // if pObject is not valid
// do something with 'pObject'
return 0; // thread completed successfully
}
// inside a different function in the program
.
.
.
pNewObject = new CMyObject;
AfxBeginThread(MyThreadProc, pNewObject);
.
.
.
I understand that.....but :
1. if I want to create 50 threads that doing the stuff in MyThreadProc(), how can i do it? Add a for loop to create 50 times???
2. If I want to suspend 10th thread, how can i identify the 10th thread and suspend it?
3. Same as 2....to do resume and kill the thread.
Thank you very much !!!

I think you can create 50 seprate thread instead of creating one and doing 50 thread in it,then when you want to suspend 10th of them,it is so easy.Another easy way is set timer and make it work for example for each 1 second for 50 seconds.Hope that help.

Thanks for your reply!
Yes....I need to create 50 separate threads (liked 50 different transactions). Since my program is going to simulate the DBMS behavior, in the MyThreadProc() there should be some algorithm to choose whether the current operation of this transaction is READ or WRITE. In this case, all 50 threads will use the same MyThreadProc() and i don't need to make 50 different MyThreadProc(). My question is,
1. Can i create these thread by:
for (i=0; i<50; i++)
{
pNewObject = new CMyObject;
AfxBeginThread(MyThreadProc, pNewObject);
}
2. How to identify Xth thread after creating 50 threads?
3. What parameter I need to put in order to suspend/resume/kill the 10th (or Xth) Thread? Because let say, one thread A (transaction) is READING a data object, and another thread B wants to WRITE the same data object. In this case, thread B needs to wait until thread A finish. So I have to suspend thread B......and wait....then resume.
So, should I call AfxGetThread()???? SuspendThread()??? ResumeThread()????
Thanks!!!!

AfxBeginThread will return the CWinThread* for the thread started. That will identify each thread. You can have an array of CWinThread*s

How does it works?
Can I use CAsyncSocket and just make a simple C/S app????
How?
I want to make a Client/Server either by using MFC or Win32 API
And it going to work over the internet!

The machine running the server must be accesible from the internet. Other than that there is not much difference.

So you mean, that example application from "Sams Teach Yourself VC++ in 21 days" will work if I put the server on a computer with Internet acces and then call the server with the IP and bla bla....???? Perhaps you don't know how that example works?
But I don't need to set a specific flag to the Create or something?
You article for example... Can I use it over the Internet?

p.s. I am surprised that a 21 day VC++ book has a chapter on winsock!!! or were they teaching CSocket stuff?

Well, it talks about CAsyncSocket class and how to create a simple Client/Server app to send messages etc.......

I have created a simple MDI application with the MFC class wizard. At the moment I have only one view and one document. The view has CListView as a base class. I have disabled the new file option on startup by using
cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand = CCommandLineInfo::FileNothing;
The user can either call a add menu option that displays a dialog box with which they can add data to the database, or they can pick a view menu option which will allow them to view all the data added on that particular day. My problem is calling the view from the mainframe menu option. I have read several articles but they all deal with adding documents and views and then swopping between them. I know I'm probably being very dense but have tried the whole of yesterday with no success. .
This is the code I'm using to initialize the List view in myView::OnInitialUpdate.
DWORD dwExStyle;
CRepPartDoc* pDoc = GetDocument();
ASSERT_VALID(pDoc);
//CActionsApp *pApp = (CActionsApp*)AfxGetApp();
CListCtrl& m_List = GetListCtrl();
dwExStyle = m_List.GetExStyle();
dwExStyle |= LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT | LVS_EX_GRIDLINES;
m_List.SetExtendedStyle(dwExStyle);
m_List.SetBkColor(RGB(255, 255, 255));
ASSERT(m_List.GetBkColor() == RGB(255, 255, 255));
m_List.InsertColumn(0,_T("Share"),LVCFMT_LEFT,160);
m_List.InsertColumn(1,_T("Status"),LVCFMT_LEFT,90);
m_List.InsertColumn(2,_T("Action Date"),LVCFMT_LEFT,90);
m_List.InsertColumn(3,_T("Book Date"),LVCFMT_LEFT,90);
m_List.InsertColumn(4,_T("Comment"),LVCFMT_LEFT,160);
Someone has suggested calling OnFileNew() from my menu handler but no success. Please help! Any suggestions will be more than I have already!
Grasp it but you cannot get it!

Who has used the regexp object in system32\vbscipt.dll to parse the text string. I have tried it and make it work!
But i don't know why i can get only one match(that is the matches.GetCount()==1), even there are many exist. The next is my code:
void CInetSessionDlg::ParsePage(CString szPattern, CString szContent){
try{
if(m_regExp.CreateDispatch(__uuidof(RegExp)) == FALSE)
{
AfxMessageBox("CreateDispatch Failed!");
return;
}
m_regExp.SetIgnoreCase(TRUE);
m_regExp.SetPattern(LPCTSTR(szPattern));
if(m_regExp.Test(LPCSTR(szContent)))
{
ISubMatches matches = m_regExp.Execute(szContent);
for(long i = 0; i < matches.GetCount(); i++)
{
IMatch2 match = matches.GetItem(i);
CString strLink = match.GetValue();
m_cbHref.AddString(strLink); }
}
}
catch(_com_error& e)
{
AfxMessageBox("Com Error occurred!" + e.Description());
return;
}
}
in this implementation file's header file:
i defined the RegExp(copied from the file RegExp.tlh got from vbscript.dll)
struct __declspec(uuid("3f4daca4-160d-11d2-a8e9-00104b365c9f"))RegExp; // [ default ] interface IRegExp2
Why? Who can tell me how to use vbscript.dll in VC++ 6.0
thanks a lot!
