hi, the error asserts at wincore.cpp line 1007:
ASSERT(pMap->LookupPermanent(hWndOrig) == NULL);
some of my code here, i wrote them and some of them i just copyied from my file and forget to change the classname

I'm only guessing, but I'd say you have memory corruption problems.
To start with, it looks like 'i' is uninitialized (at least) the first time you use it in your thread proc (Start()).

i don't think so, the code in my file is a little different, i'm posting a simpfied version, but i'm pretty sure they are initialized
the code below is the original code, and all variables are initialized.
the "SpcSetParam...." function comes from the external library, don't worry about it.
UINT __cdecl CMy61xxTestDlg::Start(LPVOID pParam){
// ----- start the board -----
CMy61xxTestDlg* me=(CMy61xxTestDlg*)pParam;
me->nBufIdx = 0;
me->lCommand = SPC_FIFOSTART;
me->lBufCount = 0;
do
{
me->nErr = SpcSetParam (me->hDrv, SPC_COMMAND, me->lCommand);
me->lCommand = SPC_FIFOWAIT;
// ----- driver requests next buffer: calculate it or load if from disk -----
me->OutputData (me->pbyData[me->nBufIdx], me->BUFSIZE,me);
// ----- buffer is ready -----
SpcSetParam (me->hDrv, SPC_FIFO_BUFREADY, me->nBufIdx);
// ----- next Buffer -----
me->lBufCount++;
me->nBufIdx++;
if (me->nBufIdx == MAX_BUF)
me->nBufIdx = 0;
}
while (me->nErr == ERR_OK);
delete me;
return 0;// assertion occurs here
}
by using the break points, i found out that the assertion at return 0

Which is a bad sign, since the assertion is related to DestroyWindow) - if you're not destroying any
windows then something is corrupt somewhere.
I hope you understand, it's next to impossible to debug this by proxy

lol, i'm having a headache.....
i'm wondering is my functions looks appropriate? is there any better way to do this?

Take some [insert your favorite headache medicine here] and run it in the debugger.
When you get an exception, look at your stack trace.
If you work your way back through the trace to the first line you find in YOUR code then go there.
Examine all variables, pointers, etc.

Just some thoughts...
Accessing a CWnd from another thread is usually best avoided unless you know exactly what
you're doing (or what MFC is doing). Accessing the underlying HWND is ok but you have to
use thread synchronization just like for any other type of object accessed by multiple
threads.
I'm wondering if you really need a thread for this. Maybe a timer would be more appropriate,
maybe not.
Your thread sits and spins in a loop - does it consume all your CPU time?
Make sure your memory accesses all stay within bounds.
Make sure you use thread synchronization objects if you need them.

Hello everyone, just wanted to say that this is my first post ever, so here goes...
I have sucessfully created and compiled a program that is supposed to calculate your age in either dog or cat years (based on your choice). Unfortunately, whenever I try and execute or debug it, nothing happens. On debugg, the command window flashes for a second and then is gone, and when running it from the command line, nothing happens at all.
I am just staring out with programming, but I think that my functions are not being called properly somehow, perhaps in the main module? I have attached the code at the bottom here, and any help given will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to CP You are mixing up function prototypes and function calls. A prototype just tells the compiler about a function - its name, return type, and parameters. It doesn't actually call the function. Every place where you say "//call to function", you've actually written another prototype.

hello ,
I am try to write a C++ apllication using windows speech API 5.1, for a text-to-speech functionnality.
the application has as an input the text to translate, the format for wav output and the language to use. this application return a buffer containing the wave data.
I need to be able to change the wave format and to switch languages in real time.
Actually I am able to set the format and to return the wave data into a buffer.
The problem I have is that I can't change the language. I must be capable of using 5 languages (English, Italien, Spanish, German and French).
Does anybody have to di this and can help.
Thanks in advance
ps: I am not oblige to use SAPI5

For example *.dbb files of Skype.
It is possible to do this without killing the process
monopolizing the file, as shows the program
"Unlocker" by Cedrick Collomb. But is it possible
to do it without creating a driver like UnlockerDriver5.sys,
but using WinAPI only? CopyFile() fails to copy
an open file with forbidden sharing. But may be there
exists some tricky way?
|
|
|
|
|
Not without a driver to circumvent the OS'es sharing-mode check.
|
|

There is no 'friendly' way of doing it. With that being said, a hacked up way would be to use CreateRemoteThread() into a target process and force it to close the file handle. Which in turn would probably cause serious problems in the target process.
Partial pseudo-code looks something like this:
<br />
PID TargetProcess = P;<br />
HANDLE TargetHandle = H;<br />
HANDLE hProc = OpenProcess(PROCESS_CREATE_THREAD | PROCESS_VM_OPERATION | PROCESS_VM_WRITE | PROCESS_VM_READ,FALSE,TargetProcess);<br />
HMODULE hMod = LoadLibrary(_T("kernel32.dll"));<br />
DWORD rc;<br />
CreateRemoteThread(hProc,0,0,(__stdcall *)(void*)GetProcAddress(hMod,"CloseHandle"),TargetHandle,0,&rc );<br />
Best Wishes,
-Randor

Thank You for Your pseudocode!
Randor wrote: Which in turn would probably cause serious problems in the target process.
Well, if there exists a way to suspend the process during this operation,
and reopen the same handle after that it surely would do the job
without skrewing up the target process.
By the way, opening UnlockerDriver5.sys in Notepad
I noticed that it is a User Mode driver, importing
a dozen of routines from ntoskrnl.dll.
I've never wrote WinNT drivers up to now, so it seems
I have to learn the corresponding rituals 
to produce a "smooth" solution to the problem
of stealing Skype's files without depressing Skype too much
|
|

|

OK, I've learned the rituals of writing kernel mode drivers --
these rituals turned out to be not that difficult.
What is difficult, however, is to determine what
this driver ought to do exactly (find a "handles table"
inside a Kernal memory space and change temporary
the sharing attributes of the corresponding handle?
Or to do somethinh else?). I have no time to read books
of Russinovich&Solomon or Dabak&Phadke&Borate,
so I decided to try first to find a way to do the job without
writing drivers of any kind, working entirely in User mode.
I've tried several ways to find a solution.
1) Injecting in the remote process blocking the access to the file
a remote thread, which uses the blocking handle
to copy the corresponding file rather than to close the handle.
For the purpose one is to inject Your own dll instead of
starting inside the remote thread any functon from Kernel32.dll
or some other "canonical" Windows library.
The reason is that any function like ReadFile(), etc.
uses more than 1 parameter. In Your own dll You can export a function
fn(void*p) which formaly has one pointer parameter, but this pointer
can point to a structure containing any number of parameters needed
e.g, for CreateFile(). The latter function can then be called from
inside of fn(). The structure with necessary parameters for fn()
is, of course, to be injected as well into the address space of the blocking
process, because the pointer to this structure in the calling process
has no sense in the remote process.
A sample implementation of the corresponding
algorithm (by Zoltan Csizmadia) can be found at
http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/w-p/dll/article.php/c105/ .
I've tried the demo exe from there: it is trying to attach a simple dll
to any process of Your choice. It succeeded for many of the processes
running on my PC, but failed to attach to Skype 
2) Duplicating remote handle of an open file into Your process.
I've tried (different variations of) the next code:
bool CopyLockedFile(LPCTSTR lpFileName,int bytesToRead,char*buff)
{
HANDLE hProcess=NULL,//handle of the blocking process
hRemote=NULL;//blocking handle to the file lpFileName I wish to read
//Receive the handle hProcess of the blocking process
//as well as the blocking handle hRemote of the file You wish to read
....... //The code is omitted here
HANDLE hDup=NULL;
DuplicateHandle(hProcess,hRemote,GetCurrentProcess(),&hDup,0,FALSE,DUPLICATE_SAME_ACCESS);
DWORD err=GetLastError();
if(err!=0||hDup==NULL)return false;//Never happened!
CloseHandle(hProcess);
BOOL ok=LockFile(hDup,0,0,bytesToRead,0);//Does not help!
err=GetLastError();
if(!ok||err!=0)return false;//Never happened!
int bytesRead=0;
ok=ReadFile(hDup,(LPVOID)buff,bytesToRead,&bytesRead,NULL);
err=GetLastError();
CloseHandle(hDup);
if(!ok||err!=0)return false;//Never happened!
if(bytesRead==bytesToRead)return true;
return false;
}
Variations of the code consisted in changing different flags, using in ReadFile()
non-zero OVERLAPPED structure instead of last parameter=NULL, etc.
The result was always the same: the code produced no errors, but the number
of read bytes (i.e. bytesRead) were less than the file length bytesToRead.
More exactly, at the first run of my prog this number was slightly less
(about 5%) than the file length. All subsequent runs produced bytesRead==0.
Until the blocking app (Skype in this case) was restarted. Then my prog
was able again to partially read the file.
3) Googling in the internet I found that many other peoples
(especially those writing backup apps) were faced with this problem.
The solution proposed by them was to use somehow Windows Volume shadow copy service.
The only working application using this service I've found is ntbackup.exe by MS.
It succeedes in copying Skype's .dbb files only if Volume shadow service
is permitted as an option, otherwise it fails. Another application
(TeeBackuper written in Delphi -- source code 30K, exe -- 3.2M!) also failed.
It clearly did not use the Volume shadow service (which, by the way is
present on WinXP and higher only, so the solution using this service
would not work on Win2k).
4) I was prepairing already to learn more about Volume shadow service,
to include it somehow into my app. But yesterday googling again
I found the following remarkable link:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1089734&SiteId=1 .
The author (ismar) faced with the same problem. The only difference
is that he works with C# .NET. His first (buggy) solution
is the direct .NET counterpart of the "DuplicateHandle" way 2) above.
The bug of this .NET solution is roughly the same as the bug
of C++ solution: failure to read the locked file more than once.
Which indicates that using of CreateFile() together with the handle obtained
via DuplicateHandle() produces an (undocumented) bug of MS itself!
The good thing is that after about 2 weeks of playing around with
the buggy solution ismar found the working one! The
idea is to use, instead of ReadFile(),
the combination CreateFileMapping()+MapViewOfFile()
(in C# language this are NativeMethods.CreateFileMapping()+
NativeMethods.MapViewOfFile()).
I immediately have changed the buggy code 2) by the code:
bool CopyLockedFile(LPCTSTR lpFileName,int bytesToRead,char*buff)
{
HANDLE hProcess=NULL,//handle of the blocking process
hRemote=NULL;//blocking handle to the file lpFileName I wish to read
//Receive the handle hProcess of the blocking process
//as well as the blocking handle hRemote of the file You wish to read
....... //The code is omitted here
HANDLE hDup=NULL;
DuplicateHandle(hProcess,hRemote,GetCurrentProcess(),&hDup,0,FALSE,DUPLICATE_SAME_ACCESS);
DWORD err=GetLastError();
if(err!=0||hDup==NULL)return false;//Never happened!
CloseHandle(hProcess);
HANDLE hMap=CreateFileMapping(hDup,NULL,PAGE_WRITECOPY,0,bytesToRead,NULL);
err=GetLastError();
if(err!=0||hMap==NULL)return false;//Never happened!
char* pMap=(char*)MapViewOfFile(hMap,FILE_MAP_COPY,0,0,bytesToRead);
if(pMap==NULL){CloseHandle(hMap);return false;}
for(int i=0;i<bytesToRead;i++)buff[i]=pMap[i];
UnmapViewOfFile(pMap);
CloseHandle(hMap);
return true;
}
And this code works great! At last!
No matter how many times it is called.
It uses no drivers, no CreateRemoteThread()
(requiring, by the way, SeDebugPrivilege),
so that I suppose the prog using it can be run
under an ordinary user account without any administrative rights
(though I did not tested it yet under an ordinary user account).

Backup programs run into problems like yours quite often.... It's not an easy answer.
If you are specifically looking to steal information out of Skype -- might I suggest using the Skype API? You can get a lot of information out of Skype with that.

1) There exists info which can not be accessed by current version of
Skype API. For example, Skype account owner's e-mail (see
http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=92887[^] )
2) *.dbb files often contain info that even Skype itself did not show.

I have a program which needs to disable/enable IIS Admin. I am doing the following
int val = system("net stop iisadmin");
But this function pops-up the dos window and asks the user for confirmation. I do not want this window to appear [Basically the user of my program need not be aware that the IIS is being disabled and hence need not respond to the dos window]
Is there some way to stop the dos window poping up and asking for confirmation?
Is there any other command that can be used?
Is there a better way of doing this operation?
Can I obtain the instance of IIS by using COM api and disable it?

Did you try ShellExecute:
HINSTANCE ShellExecute(HWND hwnd,
LPCTSTR lpOperation,
LPCTSTR lpFile,
LPCTSTR lpParameters,
LPCTSTR lpDirectory,
INT nShowCmd
);
It's last parameter may help you in your cause.
Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

You may be able to get around the confirmation by redirecting a text file containing a Y, or yes followed by a CR, but it would likely be better for you to just use the SCM/Service API directly to start/stop the service.
Lookup the StartService(...) Win32 function for more details.

I am currently working on a Visual C++ 6 project which generates an html file by first generating a xml file and applying my own xsl stylesheets. Currently, I just have the xsl files on my harddrive and I am loading them with a c++ string literal containing the directory of the files. Obviously this is a bad way, but it is temporary..
The problem now is that I would like to package up the xsl files, an external javascript file, and a set of images (used as icons in the html pages) with the executable. How can I do this with VC6? I would ideally like to be able to output a folder containing the html file and a subfolder that contains the images and the javascript file. In this way, a user can use my tool to "publish" the html file. To generate the html file, I would like to use my internal xsl files along with MSXML.
To summarize in case I was not clear, I need to allow the user to publish an html file by generating the html file, and also supplying with the html file a set of images and a javascript file needed by the html file. However, I need to package the images and javascript file with the executable of my project and output those files when the html is published.
Thanks a bunch for any help!
