Not at all. One process may get base address equal to 1000, another to 2000. If process 2 sets the address 2010 to 55, then first one will see 55 at 1010. Virtual memory, you know Wink | ;)

Ok, understood. So, linked lists are not an option here (what was I thinking, pressure).

But we can have an array of objects starting at a base-address. That's right, isn't it? So all I have to do is count from the address lpMapAddress to access all the objects.

Bassicly, I've been programming in java for several years, neglecting c for quite a while. I forgot that you can't assume anything in c++ Wink | ;)

. It's just a coincidence that the win98 returns the same address.

carry on... Big Grin | :-D

Don't think so. Instead of pointers, use offsets. To create a real pointer, add offset to base address.

You're right, but it seems easier to have something like pMyPointer++.

It doesn't have to be speedy, you know.

Nevertheless, this is just for a testcase. Next week, I'll start implementing this in our app, then I'm going to do the linked list for sure.

tnx again!

There's nothing which could stop you from implementing smart pointer class. Providing operator++ would be trivial.

Smart pointers. I've already used them in a direct-x app, but never actualy created one.

Maybe I'll use it for the real thing next week. Now, an array's just fine Wink | ;-)

Wrong! They use the same memory, yes. But they DO NOT have to map to the same memory address in your process. They share the same memory in the page file, but each process can obtain a different pointer. You are guaranteed that changing the memory in one changes it for the other, but beyond that nothing. This is by design, it's working as it should.

lpMapAddress points to the same address on win98, but not on NT.

So what? It's not possible to guarentee that addresses in multiple memory spaces will be identical. You should store lpMapAddress outside the shared data section.

Compile Error for _ConnectionPtr

I think you need to prepend global to your name

Hello,

I'm getting compile errors
error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'm_pConnection'
error C2501: '_ConnectionPtr' : missing storage-class or type specifiers
error C2501: 'm_pConnection' : missing storage-class or type specifiers

I used the Add Memeber Variable menu to create the variable. I'm not quite sure what is causing this. Any help
would be much appreciated.

Thanks

It doesn't know the type of variable m_pConnection is,
include the header file for the type.

Hello,

If you look at my previous post you will see that it was
defined at "PopulateDataGridDlg.h" file.

Thanks

I'm assuming you are using

#import "C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ADO\msado15.dll"
or some other similiar #import.

You need to make sure this line is before the call to #include "PopulateDataGridDlg.h"

Either that or your #import is specifing a namespace which you will need to prefix your _ConnectionPtr with.

There is your problem. Why are renaming the namespace? Change the call to

#import "C:\program files\common files\system\ado\msado15.dll" \
no_namespace \
rename( "EOF", "adoEOF" )

Printing HTML images from outlook

I am using MIME encoding to send an HTML message with an 64 base encode jpg. When printing this message from Outlook, the text prints OK but the image does not print at all.
The only possible explanation I have found for this is the folowing Microsoft article:

Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - Q271562
HTML Messages with Pictures Do Not Print Correctly After You Install Internet Explorer 5.5 SP1 or 6.0.

However the Outlook patch meant to fix this problem adds all sorts of anoying security features to outlook, which cannot be undone without messing around with the registry. I'm a junior programmer at my company and do not really want to go and mess around with the directors' registries, without beeing sure if the above would even fix the problem.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? And is there a simple solution?

Dear sir
please help me to install the oem.inf file for oem device .in vanila win98 SE

system , i tried lot of options like

1.RUNDLL32.EXE SETUPAPI.DLL,InstallHinfSection myoem.mydev 128 C:\\myDriver\\Win98\\myoem1.INF

2.rundll.exe setupx.dll,InstallHinfSection myoem.mydev 128 C:\\myDriver\\Win98\\myoem1.INF

this command is copy in files in the c:\windows\system\drivers folder and iosubsys folder but the registery is note updated

but this myoem1.INF is working fine with New hardware wizard

the win 2000 version of myoem1.INF is worked fine with 2000 win

using setup api SetupCopyOEMInf

but it IS NOT WORKING IN win98

SetupDiOpenClassRegKey

SetupInstallFromInfSection

is not working with win98 and me

is there is any api for win98 to execute the WDM INF file

or any other way without using the Wizard please tell me
how to do it using win SDK or DDK

Documents and Settings.... Design Issue

Jawache6-Sep-02 1:06

Re: Documents and Settings.... Design Issue

6-Sep-02 1:06

I have a design issue.

I need a place where i can store a list of files that is per user, persistant for each run of the application and available on NT aswell as Win98/95 etc..

Ideally I would like a directory where i can store shortcuts to the files.

I'm developing on Win2K and I have a directory called
D:\Documents and Settings\Asim Hussain

1) Is there a function where I can get this directory like ::GetSystemDirecory?

2) Will this work cross platform, i.e. Win98 (*ughh* -- Shivers down my spine), will it still give me a valid directory considering that its single user etc...

I could just stick it all in the registry, but using shortcuts will save me a lot of time in displaying these files since all i will have to do is show the directory in a ShellView.

Cheers

win98 to winNT

I've created an mfc-dll on a win98/2 and it works fine, but on winNT/2000 "sometimes" it crashes.

Are there any platform-rules I have to take into account when building the dll, so it can be run on winNT?

tnx.
