Ok, too bad you don't guess it. I am saying the discussion you and Rickard are having is making my day. Thanks a lot.

I would be glad if someone could try export a function and tell me if it worked for you!
Cheers!

A .def file only eliminates the need to add __declspec(dllexport) attributes alongside with each function you export.
Exporting functions does not work for an exe : there is no __declspec(process) attribute. Attempting to export a .exe function using dllexport will just prompt the loading of the .dll file, which does not exist!
Export interfaces instead. That's what COM is about.

Interesting! I used to export functions from my Delphi .exe files but had no idea that I couldn't do it in C++ - I would have had to discover that at somepoint and no doubt tear some hair out in the process. I'll have to go back to having a separate DLL to export the functions. Shame.

In fact, I have just exported some functions from a .exe in Visual C++ and used them from a DLL! I defined them in a .def file in the .exe project and then used GetProcAddress to import them in the .dll (obviously giving the DLL function the HMODULE of my running .exe). I can send anyone who's interested the project files.

If you view depends on Excel you can see that Excel exports functions.
Both Exes and DLLs are written in the PE format. The only difference between them is their entry point that either makes them standalone execuatable or not.
So you will be able to load and EXE and map function addresses in that EXE at runtime just like it was a DLL.

Faking the OS by using an EXE as if it was a DLL leads you to unexpected problems. Allright, the vtable is exported and reflected by quickview or other PE viewers. Allright, you may even call a method on it. And if you are lucky, this will even work.
Indeed, The process boundary and load context enabled by a standard exe launch is totally different than with a DLL (loaded in the same address space). In other words, the DLL has no context at all.
You'll meet soon a guy called time chkesp.c complaining about such a use.
In addition, the executable must be designed to be able to respond to your calls. Don't forget that once a process is launched, it is doing something, and is not necessarily able to respond outside calls. That's one of the benefits of using COM instead.
The process life cycle raises a bunch of other troubles, but I let you discover them.
Good luck!

You are a lot better off making your EXE a local COM server, than trying to call in to it as if it were a DLL. COM handles all of the process/context issues for you, and you don't have to worry about calling differences between DLL's, and all that stuff.
By the way: it's easy to make an existing application act as a COM server as well as continue its normal activity.

I use AVIStreamGetFrame() to get the frame data, then use
the data to write an BMP file, but i find the BMP file is
not correct, PLS refers to the attached file, you can see
the file, the circle is split, but in fact the circle is
not split and should in the center. But i use DrawDibDraw
to write the frame to screen, the result is right.
I do not know why, PLS help me.
Welcome any suggestion.
PS:
PAVISTREAM m_pVideoStreams [MAX_VIDEO_STREAMS];
AVISTREAMINFO avis;
LONG lEnd, lEndTime, l;
LONG lPos;
BYTE m_byteFormat [1024];
AVIStreamInfo(m_pVideoStreams[i], &avis, sizeof
(AVISTREAMINFO));
FIXCC(avis.fccHandler);
FIXCC(avis.fccType);
l = sizeof(m_byteFormat);
AVIStreamReadFormat(m_pVideoStreams[i],0, &m_byteFormat,
&l);
lPos = AVIStreamTimeToSample(m_pVideoStreams[i], lTime);
AVIStreamSampleSize(m_pVideoStreams[i], lPos, &lSize);
lpbi = (LPBITMAPINFOHEADER)m_byteFormat;
FIXCC(lpbi->biCompression);
// Which frame belongs at this time?
lEndTime = AVIStreamEndTime(m_pVideoStreams[i]);
if (lTime <= lEndTime)
lFrame = AVIStreamTimeToSample(m_pVideoStreams[i],
lTime);
else
{ // we've scrolled past the end of this stream
lEnd = AVIStreamEnd(m_pVideoStreams[i]);
lFrame = lEnd + AVIStreamTimeToSample
(m_pVideoStreams[i], lTime - lEndTime);
}
lpbi = (LPBITMAPINFOHEADER)AVIStreamGetFrame(m_pVideoPGF
[i], m_lFrame);
//then accordint to the lpbi to draw in the screen and
write to an BMP file

Suppose many windows are open on your desktop. As such only one window is active which is in the front and has the current input focus. I call it active window while the others as inactive windows. Right !!!!
I want to create simple dialog box application. But i want my dialog box to appear as an "inactive" form, i.e when i run my application from Visual Studio, the dialog box appears in the back of Visual Studio Window and Visual studio Window not lose its focus. How can i do so ???

Hi,
I got a handle to a window, and want got a pointer to the windows object for further manipulation, how to do then? Example is welcomed.
Thanks

you mean you want a CWnd from an HWND ? CWnd::Attach and CWnd::FromHandle might help.

Look the code, it doesn't work
<br />
int CALLBACK MonitorCallback(HGLOBAL hBuf, int nLen, LPARAM lParam)<br />
{<br />
LPBYTE lpBuf = (LPBYTE)::GlobalLock((HGLOBAL)hBuf);<br />
if(!lpBuf)<br />
return 1;<br />
<br />
CString str=HexDump(lpBuf,nLen);<br />
CEdit Edit;<br />
<br />
Edit.Attach((HWND)lParam);<br />
CEdit *pEdit=(CEdit*)Edit.FromHandle((HWND)lParam);<br />
pEdit->SetWindowText(str);<br />
<br />
return 0;<br />
<br />
}
what's wrong???
Thanks in advance

CWnd* pEdit = CWnd::FromHandle ( (HWND) lParam );
pEdit->SetWindowText ( str ); Although you don't need to muck about with CWnd s for such a simple task. Using the APIs would be simpler:
SetWindowText ( (HWND) lParam, str );

Hello All,
Is there anymore than this that I need to do so that the font used to print on a CStatic control is changed?
CFont font;
font.CreatePointFont (80, _T("Times New Roman"));
CWnd* pPrices = GetDlgItem (STATIC_SHOW_ALL);
pPrices->SetFont (&font, TRUE); STATIC_SHOW_ALL is the ID of my static control. When I write on the control now (using a member var that's attached to it) it changes the font from the default the dialog is using but not to the font I set it to. Any help is as always much appreciated.
