Take a look at this MC++ class :-
public __gc class Class2
{
public:
int Abc()
{
int y=8;
return y;
}
};
Now here is some C# code that instantiates this class :-
Class2 c1 = new Class2();
int y=c1.Abc();
This is confusing to me. Abc() returns an int and not an Int32. It returns a C++ int. Now we know that the C# int actually maps to a .NET Int32. What puzzles me is how the C++ int auto-converts into a C# int which auto-boxes to a Int32!

There is no mystery
C++ .NET C#
int -> System.Int32 -> int
System::String->System::String->string
So C++ compiler actually emits metadata as System.Int32. C# compiler reads System.Int32 and maps it to int.

int doesn't exist in .NET , the closest is "native int" used with p/invoke and com interop scenarios ...
The System.Int32 is the real datatype , int is simply a "alias".
For real interop with different languages used with the same project we should use the real ones, not the fakes , it's helps a lot 
I'm be reading about IL code generation and CLR internals , and in fact .NET is a fascinating beast 
Microsoft have done a great work

I have this MC++ web service which I consumed from an MC++ client.
Nothing fancy. The default HelloWorld thing. Then I tried to make a change to the web service but the build failed and said it couldn't overwrite the files. Finally I found that the problematic soab was Debug\WebServiceTest.pdb. I can't see why this stupid file should be in use any longer. Do I have to restart windows????

I was reading Chris Maunder's articles on web services [Read the C# one first and then the MC++ one]. Seems as if web services are pretty straight stuff.
But now that we have these services, how do we read them?
All this while the screen saver competition was on and I never thought of how the .NET guys are doing it. Mike used MS XML I know.
But I forgot about asking what the .NET fellers used. You guys parsed all that XML?? Or was there some kinda XML-to-Object converter available???

.NET managed that for us
XML is just encapsulating the data, the Web Service stuff inside .NET parses the data then returns the proper types back to us.
If you look at our source tree, the file /Web References/codeProject/Reference.cs shows you the code the was generated to consume the web service.

The same classes are used right?

Yep, should be. The SoapClientWebProtocol yadda yadda yadda does all the dirty work.

Hi,
I have 2 questions here. Need your help . Thanking in advance.
Question1
Write an application that prints the following diamond shape. You may use output statements that prints a single
asterisks ( * ) , a single space or a single newline character . Maximize your use of repetition (with nested For structures)
and minimize the number of output statements . The desired output should be as below :
*
* * *
* * * * *
* * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * *
* * * * *
* * *
*
Question2
Modify the program you wrote in Question 1 to read odd number in the range 1 to 19 to specify the number of rows
in the diamond . Your program should then display a diamond of the appropriate size .
regards

Did your teacher tell you that you can also do it in Managed C++???

Help! I have this problem. I am linking to an unmanaged DLL using IJW (just including the headers). This DLL is thread-safe and calls must run in a thread.
I have used the System::Threading classes to create a thread. However, the thread class I have must be integrated into an unmanaged class that inherits from a base class in the dll:
e.g.
class A : public QQLListener {} where QQLListener is a class in the unmanaged DLL library. However, the thread must be in class A, but you cannot use System::Threading in an unmanaged class and the class CANNOT be managed because it must inherit from an unmanaged abstract base class.
What is a solution? Is there a non .NET framework Threading library? My application cannot use MFC, it must be console mode. I need a threading system that works in unmanaged code in console mode in a .NET managed C++ project. Any ideas?
Thanks

You cannot derive managed class from an unmanaged class. You should do something like this
__gc class A
{
QQLListener* pSl;
public:
A()
{
pSl = new QQLListener();
}
void ThreadStart()
{
pSl->threadStart();
}
}
|
|

Thanks for the advice, but unfortunately this will not work either. QQLListener is the base class of a subject-observer design pattern, it must be inherited by a derived class so that the callback methods inside it are called. I suppose there is no way to use my old C++ library with the .net framework. I think it's not quite as "compatible" as they claim.

The stuff is compatible the exact way of doing things depends on a case to case basis. If you provide little more details then probably I could help.

You can use the API. CreateThread(). Or CRT. _beginthreadex()

I have an MC++ written control.
I have added it to the C# toolbox.
When I try to insert it into the form [by drag/drop] I get a message box with this *very* informative message :-
Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131019
Blast!!!

I just wrote a message to you about that. What a coincidence? I did not know that you would land into this problem so soon. Ok this is interseting you can have a look at my article Developing windows forms control with MFC. Basically you have to click on the reference and set copy local to false.

Cool! Also had to copy the DLL to the output directory

What's worse is that I caneasily add the control via code. It's just that the form designer refuses to understand the control
Is there any known issue where the C# form designer cannot understand a control made with MC++ ???

Hello,
This is with regard to writing Forms controls using MC++.
Has anyone made any?
If so, what extra steps did they have to take?

These are the steps I have done right now :-
#using "..\testcontrol\Debug\testcontrol.dll"
....
using namespace testcontrol;
....
Then I have a member in my class as follows :-
Class1 *m_c;
This is all okay.
Now if I do this anywhere :-
m_c = new Class1();
I get this exception when I run it :-
System.IO.FileNotFoundException
Blast!!!!
It found the file alright!!!
Else how would it even compile properly

Place testcontrol.dll in the output directory of the application which you are building.
