Hi all,
I'd like have my MDI child as modal dialog. Is it possible by using RunModalLoop? If so, how can I achieve this?
If anyone could tell me how to use RunModalLoop, I'd be thankful.
Thanks in advance,
Sarvan AL

That's a very odd request. I'm not sure of the usefulness of such a feature, but anyway...
Look at the MFC source code for CDialog::DoModal() and implement something similar for your form. Yes, RunModalLoop() is involved. Obviously, CDialog::DoModal() does more than you require, such as loading the dialog resource, creating the dialog, returning the return value etc...

Hi all
I have three queries regarding memory management:
1) As we know that if a variable is declered in a file (Let .c file) then we can access this variable from any other .c file by using "extern" key word...... Now Question is where this extern variable is stored in memory.
2) Is there any way to make this sure that if any variable is declared in some .c file then any other file can not access this variable.
3) where the variables are stored while execution of program (RAM, or Hard disk, or CPU Registers)..
I think problems would be clear.
Please reply.
Thanks in advance

 In the same place as any other variables...

Yes, declare the variable as static
rajeevktripathi wrote: where the variables are stored while execution of program (RAM, or Hard disk, or CPU Registers)
Usually in RAM. They can be stored in registers depending on how the compiler does its optimisation.

Thanks for your solutions
Here answer of 1st question is not clear to me,
so please explore it a bit more
Thanks

Whether you place extern on a variable definition or not makes absolutely no difference to where it is stored in memory.

This depends on the compiler which is used.
Everything I have read about this suggests that the Visual C++ compiler treats the REGISTER keyword with very low priority (i.e. it uses it as a suggestion, but does what it thinks is best.)
I was doing some code which I though would benefit from keeping some three 32-bit variables in registers, but the REGISTER keyword made no difference to the speed. Looking at the assembly code which was generated, the three variables were not put in registers.

Actually, it's even lower. It ignores it completely, as do most compilers these days. Generally, the optimiser is a lot better at choosing which variables should be in registers than the programmer is.

I saw that MSDN says:
"The compiler does not accept user requests for register variables; instead, it makes its own register choices when global register-allocation optimization (/Oe option) is on."
I wonder if MS compilers have ever done anything with the register keyword.
I'm sure I still have a Visual C++ 1.52c disk somewhere at home - maybe I should install that (Win 9x?) and see what assembler that generates.

I think you'll find that it honours the register variables sometimes, and sometimes does not. C/C++ optimisers were still not very advanced back in 1993

The extern keyword tells the compiler that the variable is defined in another compilation unit and so no new space is needed for it - It just makes a variable from one compilation unit available in another. NOTE: It is ignored if the variable is initialized.
rajeevktripathi wrote: 2) Is there any way to make this sure that if any variable is declared in some .c file then any other file can not access this variable.
Two popular ways to do this (in C++):
1. The preferred way is to enclose it in an anonymous namespace. i.e.
namespace
{
}
2. The old deprecated way is to put the keyword static before it.
In C only the 2nd option is available.
rajeevktripathi wrote:

The simple answer is RAM - Which is more or less correct. However if you want to knit-pick it is more complicated than this:
- Windows has virtual memory thus the memory that stores the variable could be paged out in which case it is stored on disk until it is paged back into RAM again.
- The compiler may use registers. Many things effect if this is the case, such as what optimizations are used, usage of the keyword register, the structure of the code and the "intelligence" of the compiler.

when u use the MapViewOfFile API and set the 'dwNumberOfBytesToMap' to a particular value say "x" and then when u get the return pointer value(say "y") of the buffer that MapViewOfFile API returns,
What happens when we try to write to the "y+x+1"th memory location.....will an error occour?
cheerz!

Yes. You'll get an access violation exception and your program will be terminated by Windows unless you handle the exception.

Or unless you happen to already own that memory, which is more unfortunate - harder to find bugs in your program. I would rather see an access violation any day than to try to figure out 'who' overwrote some of my own memory.

Yes. That would be a rare occurrence though because MapViewOfFile() returns addresses in a different address range to the addresses returned by allocating memory "normally". So unless you've called MapViewOfFile() twice, this probably won't happen.
But you're right

I have a c++ progeam calling a subroutine. The variables are passed correctly, But just step into the subroutine at the first line under the subroutine header by break point, I got error message: "debug assertion failed"
.......
.......
complexFFT(sd_l,np_seed,np_seed1,isign);
.......
.......
void CData_vib_procDlg::complexFFT(float data[],unsigned int &number_of_samples,unsigned int &sample_rate,int &sign)
{

An assertion has failed. Check the parameters you are passing to the function. Sorry about the vague answer but with the information you give I don't think it can be narrowed down much further. Give us more details/source code if you want us to give you a more detailed response.
eg where are sd_l, np_seed, np_seed1, isign defined, and what types are they? What values do they have? What is the exact assertion?
The assertions are there for debugging usually to tell you that something you you sent the function is invalid.
When I die I'd like to go peacefully in my sleep like my father, not screaming in terror like his passengers!!!

sd_l is a float type array - sd_l[i], i=0,1,...np_seed-1, np_seed and np_seed1 are unsigned int,
np_seed1 = 4096
void CData_vib_procDlg::complexFFT(float data[],unsigned int &number_of_samples,unsigned int &sample_rate,int &sign)

How to store a Binary value in a variable?
as we do for hexadecimal value as x=00XF88.how do we
store binary value like this?

You can't specify a binary literal directly. Specify it as octal or hex instead.

hey, trying to send a DLL written in C with VC6, an integer from a VB6 app. I send it as an integer, it arrives as a u_int and is always 0. I accept the integer using a function, not a callback. I tried sending the value as a string and atoi()ing it, same results. I sprintfed the value and MessageBoxed it, which is how I know it is always 0 before usage.
How do I make the value keep its value when sent from VB6 app to VC6 DLL?
If you need more info, code or something, let me know. Thanks in advance.

Here's a tip.
In VB6, Integers are 16 bit and Longs are 32 bit.
You'll need to map a VB6 Long to a C/C++ int.

Should I do that on the C side? I assume you mean to send the long value to the DLL function and do the conversion there. Can't find any info on how to make that conversion on the VB side, which I guess wouldn't make sense and would be redundant to do so. Let me know if I am headed in the right direction. I will continue to research it and check back here periodically. thanks in advance.
