hi all,
i want to know any character can trigger return of recv() function?
i used java to send data to VC++ client. for example, i send 5 lines to VC client and i want to have 5 times of return in recv().
what can i do?

example:
while(y=recv(pSoc->conn,buff,512,0))
{
// i want to run 5 times of this loop.
// for 5 lines of data
// e.g.
// loginlist
// Jim
// Mary
// Joe
// Ken
// 5 lines of data, want to have 5 returns in recv(), any help?
}

thanks,
jim

That's not how sockets work. You may get all lines in one recv() response, or one character per recv(), and your code must be able to deal with it.

Hi,
I have very big Visual C++ project I undertook after the other programmer. Now, I found out irregular fatal errors. Windows write something like "....instruction on address blahblah....memory cant be written...". I really cant go through source code and find possible problems because it is really big project. So how can I fix it ?? I say again, this error is very irregular and sometimes, the program finishes its work perfectly...I am very confused. Is there any way to find the error ? I have VC++ 6.0.
Thanks in advance, any suggestion will be appreciated !

You'll need some automated error detection tool, like BoundsChecker or Purify. The problem smells like heap corruption or writing past the end of array.

Forget about it. Treat your app as a 2-engine plane with first engine totally broken. Second may fail any moment now leading to disaster.

But, where can I get BoundsChecker, trial version, because I havent got money enough to buy commercial version...?

in VB theres the app path that you can tack on before the filename. How can you automatically detect your location in VC?

call oracle pl/sql procedures with cursors as outputparameters

hi
how is it possible to call an oracle procedure from my vc++ application. i have tried it with the oracle ole c++ library, but this method doesn´t work because this library isn´t maturad enough, like there are several exceptions, when i connect to the db or when i call MoveNext in a dynaset object. I have read about an solution with the ole db dataprovider from oracle, but the problem is, that this works with COM and COM+ and so it is to complicated for me, because i am not experienced in COM.

Is there any simple solution for my problem?

thanks

I use ADO all the time to call Oracle stored procedures from VC++ applications.

Simply create an ADO connection, create a command object and execute it. There are some issues with returning Recordsets but these can be sorted by a few changes to the stored procedures.

A simple SQL question

I have a lot of fields in my database. I want to include all but one in my search. I dont want to have to type the names of all the fields in my SQL search like this:

SELECT Aa,b,c,d....FROM Table

Is there something like

SELECT * From Table BUT NOT xyz

?

Thanks,
ns

nope, not possible.

But (unless the field is type text or ntext or some other blob), it's probably quicker to use * and just not use the field. If you specify a finite set of columns to return, you'll slow your query down some.

Okay, thanks. I am putting my fields in a listbox, and didnt want my blob field to show up. SO ii suppose I'll test for it and exclude it while populating the box.

You can go the lazy route and just use *. But if your blob data can be large I would consider it a worthy optimization to type out all of the fields. You could use a stored procedure to keep from having to type it multiple times.

Todd Smith

good point, but......

nss8-Aug-02 7:04

Great optimization observation. I'm in a catch-22 situation though - I dont know how many fields there are, or what the names are. SO I do a select * and iterate through the fields to get that info. (I populate a listctrl with the names, so I was contemplating catching the blob field name and filtering it out). I f I'm missing something obvious, I'd like to know....

Try to use view instead of table for search.

Re: A simple SQL question

nss8-Aug-02 5:11

8-Aug-02 5:11

WEll,
This means I go in search of what a view is. None of the simple SQL stuff and basic db stuff I've seen (and its very little) speaks of views. If you have any links let me know.
Thanks,
ns

Something like below. Same way you write a SQL statement to create table. Reasons you write one is to help organise your SQL statement call and optimize in some sense as it will be compiled into an object in your DBMS.

create or replace view v_something as
select S.ID, S.CODE, U.NAME
from
salesman s, user u
where
U.id = S.User_ID
with read only
