If you don't use extern "C" the name of the function is mangled the C++ way (you can see this effect viewing your DLL with Dependecy Walker). That means you need to pass the mangled name to GetProcAddress().
On the other hand, using extern "C" makes the function have C linkage, hence, roughly speaking, without mangling.

HI,
I got the point.
Thanks for your reply.

one last solution to avoid using "extern C" is to put a .DEF file in your dll project, which tells to export a symbol as you name it in the file.

Hi,
I have ListView with 4 colom, I want to fill color in 3rd coloum. How can I do this?
|
|
|

Replacement message:
ListView is just a CListCtrl wrapped in a View class, so look at CListCtrl articles here on CP. Luckily, it's a later control and more easily part-owner-draw-able, unlike ListBoxes.
Iain.

Original:
I don't know the answer off the top of my head - but I bet you'd have to do some level of ownerdraw. Luckily, the ListView is a later control, and more easily part-owner-drawable. (Unlike ListCtrl).
Have a look on the articles here on CP. You may not find an exact answer, but I bet someone has an article with (eg) different fonts in different rows / columns that could give you a string hint.

This was a little bit off the cuff - but ListCtrl has been around since my windows 3.1 programming days - ListView is all new fangled and windows 95ish.
Just look at the API for the common controls - with its NMCUSTOMDRAW, multi stages etc.
I didn't say it was *easy* in an absolute sense - just a relative one.
On the other hand, I usually either use ListCtrl for a simple list o' stuff, or jump straight to Maunder's original grid control - the early seed of codeproject. I've yet to give serious time to the new Dundas' open sourced one, as it would require too much rewiring of too many parts of my code.

Hmm, I don't recall seeing a list control until at least Windows 95. Prior to that, it was all listboxes.

That's where we're going adrift.
Replace my texted ListView with ListCtrl, and my ListCtrl with ListBox...
Phew. I was wondering how we were disagreeing.

I am creating a class as follows...
extern"C" class Logger
{ public:
string message;
void logMIN(string message);
void logMID(string message);
void logMAX(string message);
};
extern "C"
void Logger::logMIN(string message)
{
.....
}
extern"C"
void Logger::logMID(string message)
{
.....
}
extern"C"
void Logger::logMAX(string message)
{
......
}
I call these functions from main. Following is the error that I get on building... Please help me resolve this
Logger.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> > __cdecl log(class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >) " (?l

I just reported your message for posting the same thing over and over. You were given answers when you asked this question yesterday.

yes but it was not resolved..
|
|

If it was not resolved, it could be only because you did not give sufficient information at first, and then you did not care to reply to the ones who posted to you. You could have replied to them, explaining what you tried and what was the outcome.
Is it hard to understand that if you post the same thing again, you will get the very same reply?
Also, I find it very difficult to understand things like "it is not working", "it was not resolved", etc.,

I agree with Rajesh you should have followed the queries for your previous post instead of reposting it.
It seems you are missing the definition for a function whose prototype is something like,
string log(string);
and not related to the code you shown about the Logger class.
BTW, use <pre></pre> and format the message correctly when posting such messages.

|

I am sorry for doing that.
I have also included the function string log(string) but still that error persists.

how, where, and post full length error which shows "referenced in function _xxx".

I have done like this..
extern string log(string);
extern"C"
void Logger::logMIN(string message)
{
log(message);
}
error is...

this is the declaration, where the definition? i Hope you know the meaning of function definition. I don't know such a prototyped function in SDK, if you know link with corresponding library.
|
|
|
|
|
The definition of log(message) is in another file in the same project. In which I print this message...
Goes like..
log(string message)
{
cout<<message;
}
the above function is called like what I had given earlier. This function is defined outside the Logger class.
|
|
|
|

your function prototype doesnot match with the definition, since these are in different compilation unit and the compilation unit where you defined the function doesnot aware of the faulty declaration, compiler didn't shown error,
you need ti change like this,
string log(string message)
{
cout << message;
return message;
}
or change the prototype as
extern void log(string message);
and define as
void log (string message)
{
cout << message;
}
