Are you using C++/CLI? If yes, classes under System::IO will help you to work with files. If you are using standard C++, you may need to check this[^] and this is not the right forum. Try C++/MFC forum instead.

Hi,
I'm pretty sure there is a quick answer to this, but I've spent hours on this an no progress...
SXSTrace shows that my DLL has a dependency of MS VC80 8.0.50727.4053 which exists on my development machine.
When I try to run my DLL on a Vista, or XP machine with .net3.5SP1, the highest version is .3053
How can I get Visual Studio 2005 to create a depend on an earlier version of MSVC80 ?
I have placed this line into my c++ file:
#pragma comment(linker, "\"/manifestdependency:type='win32' name='Microsoft.VC80.CRT' version='8.0.50727.762' processorArchitecture='x86' publicKeyToken='1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b'\"")
but this only succeeds in adding TWO dependency lines to my manifest:
<dependency>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity type='win32' name='Microsoft.VC80.CRT' version='8.0.50727.762' processorArchitecture='x86' publicKeyToken='1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b' />
</dependentAssembly>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity type='win32' name='Microsoft.VC80.CRT' version='8.0.50727.4053' processorArchitecture='x86' publicKeyToken='1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b' />
</dependentAssembly>
</dependency>
What is the correct way of doing this?
Many Thanks,
Dave Smith
--- EDIT: ---
Basically, I'm wanting to be able to bind to version 8.0.0.0 of VC80, not a particular version. This would solve my problem. Any suggestions on how to achieve it?

Hi, I need your advice on the complexity involved in using a Windows forms GUI for a program that is written in unmanaged C++.
The program does data acquisition and live processing of data, all accomplished in native C++. I need to add a UI for the program that should basically allow the user to set the initial parameters, then once acquisition and processing begins the UI should show some status updates to the user and draw live plots of the processed data that the user would like to see.
I would rather use forms for the GUI due to the simplicity of the designer and ease of integration with VC++ (MFC is not an option), but I have only come to know of C++/CLI recently, which made me wonder about the difficulty involved with getting the form to call and interact with unmanaged code, compared to using a native C++ GUI design library like Qt (or something else you would suggest that is not MFC).
I have a short amount of time as I am on an internship, so I do not want to spend time learning the wrong library for the job. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

If you don't expect portability, C++/CLI is worth trying. Developing a GUI with C++/CLI is trivial. You can do communication with your unmanaged API easily.
|
|
|
|

Portability isn't a priority since some of the core DLL's I am using only work with windows, though I suppose at least the Form code should be portable using Mono.
I have made a simple form and added a member function that is coded in native C++ (uses pointers, new/malloc, etc.) with no problems, so I guess my fears were unfounded. Though out of curiosity, how does this program work when some of its code is compiled to MSIL and others to machine code? and does that negatively affect performance during run-time?

Your native code will run at the usual speed, it won't operate any slower because it's running in the context of a managed application. The only performance issues you could potentially run into are the serialization/marshaling time required to use to convert your initial parameters from managed types to native types (negligible) and the resulting native data into managed types that can be plotted or otherwise shown on your form (probably negligible.) If you're talking about querying and plotting the data with seconds or more between each update, there shouldn't be much of a problem. If you're talking about updating multiple times per second, however, you could potentially run into some slow-downs.

Adding to the other reply, C++/CLI uses C++ interop to do managed - unmanaged communication. C++ interop is quite fast and you don't find much problems with that.

I have to convert a string of format "2009/07/30" to DATE in managed C++.
There is a parse method in DATE. But I don't know how to use that.
Please help me with the format.

|
|

DateTime myDate = DateTime::Parse("2009/07/30");

hello
I'm trying to pass multi-dimensional arrays from C# to un-managed WIN32 C++ dll - second parameter of each of the two functions exported below are meant to be OUTPUT parameter (memory allocated in C# however)
<br />
MATLABGENERICDLL_API void GetCurves(char* strParam, double * myCurve)<br />
{<br />
for(int i=0; i<10; i++)<br />
{<br />
if(i>0) {<br />
myCurve[i] = 1.01 * Curve[i-1];<br />
} else {<br />
myCurve[i] = 0.5;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
<br />
MATLABGENERICDLL_API void GetMatrix(char* strParam, double ** myMatrix)<br />
{<br />
try {<br />
for(int i=0; i<10; i++)<br />
{<br />
for(int j=0; j<10; j++)<br />
{<br />
myMatrix[i][j] = 0.25;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
} catch( ...)<br />
{<br />
throw;<br />
}<br />
<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
GetCurves executed successfully, but not GetMatrix.
<br />
class Program<br />
{<br />
[DllImport(@"C:\MatlabGenericDll.dll")]<br />
private static extern string ToUpper2(string Src);<br />
<br />
[DllImport(@"C:\MatlabGenericDll.dll")]<br />
private static extern void GetCurves(string strParam, [In, Out] double[] myCurves);<br />
<br />
[DllImport(@"C:\MatlabGenericDll.dll")]<br />
private static extern void GetMatrix(string strParam, [In, Out] double[,] myMatrix);<br />
<br />
static void Main(string[] args)<br />
{<br />
string strTest = "abc";<br />
string strResult = null;<br />
<br />
double[] myCurve = null;<br />
double[,] myMatrix = null;<br />
<br />
try<br />
{<br />
strResult = ToUpper2(strTest);<br />
<br />
myCurve = new double[100];<br />
GetYieldCurves("AAA", myCurve); << For some reason, executed succssfully (Although I checked &myCurve - address seems to be different in C#/C++ layer so I really don't understand why it worked)<br />
<br />
myMatrix = new double[10, 10];<br />
GetMatrix("BBB", myMatrix); << System.AccessViolationException, complained saying memory probably corrupted.<br />
}<br />
catch (Exception ex)<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(ex.ToString());<br />
}<br />
<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
I'm not sure if I am doing right thing ... allocating memory from C# layer and if C# exe and C++ dll share same address space at all.
My end goal is: I actually also need to pass, from c# exe to unmanaged C++ dll, a two-dimensional array of undetermined size of different column types (string, doubles, int, DateTime)
Thanks!

Hi,
in native code all arrays are actually one-dimensional, i.e. all the elements are on consecutive addresses.
in managed code you have two kinds of multi-dimensional arrays, and their lay-out isn't what the native world needs at all. So if you manage to get it marshalled, all data will have to be copied.
If OTOH you declare a managed one-dimensionl array, you could use either the fixed keyword or the GCHandle class to obtain the data pointer and pass that, no copying involved.
So rather than using array[x][y] I would recommend something along the lines of aray[x*YDIM+y] (or is it y*XDIM+x, not sure).

hi, i have a managed c++ project using /clr using old syntax.
one of the functions in the program has the following argument list: (System::Object __gcc * _gcc yValue[])
i'm trying to pass four doubles in an array, but am having difficulty with the notation.
any help?
thank you

What type of array? An array of System::Object references?

it can be any one of these types: String DateTime Double Decimal Single Int32 UInt32 Int64 UInt64
it's for a winforms control. here is the link to the full method description: http://support.dundas.com/OnlineDocumentation/WinChart2005/topic1363.html[^]
from the documentation, i 'should' be able to just list values in the argument, so AddY(1,2,3,4). however, managed c++ does not convert the values to an array. creating the array first and then passing the variable in the argument will not compile... it apparently does not reconginze the array value. i've come up with a work around using another set of functions in the library, but it's very difficult to get managed code to play nice with windows forms libraries to say the least.
|
|
|
|

function declaration should look rather like the following:
int AddY(System::Object __gc * yValue __gc []);
or
int AddY(System::Object* yValue[]);
params keyword isn't supported in C++, so this function should be called with argument of type array of Object*.
int AddY(Object* yValue[])
{
return yValue->Length;
}
Object* arr[] = new Object*[2];
ar[0] = __box(1.1);
ar[1] = __box(2.1);
AddY(arr);

Hi,
I'm doing a simple managed C++ class to grab data from a USB device and pass it to the C# side.
This is my class:
public __gc class Communication<br />
{<br />
private:<br />
LPVOID dataInBuffer; <br />
HANDLE _hFileHandle;<br />
int nBytesToRead; <br />
int maxPacketSize;<br />
<br />
public:<br />
<br />
Communication()<br />
{<br />
_hFileHandle = INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE;<br />
<br />
maxPacketSize = 256;<br />
dataInBuffer = malloc(sizeof(char) * maxPacketSize);<br />
nBytesToRead = maxPacketSize;<br />
}<br />
<br />
~Communication()<br />
{<br />
if( _hFileHandle != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )<br />
{<br />
CloseHandle( _hFileHandle );<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
bool OpenDevice( String* driverName )<br />
{<br />
char* lpFileName = new char[driverName->Length + 10];<br />
<br />
sprintf( lpFileName, "\\\\?\\%s", driverName );<br />
<br />
_hFileHandle = CreateFile((LPCSTR) lpFileName,GENERIC_READ,0,0,OPEN_EXISTING,0,0);<br />
<br />
if( _hFileHandle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )<br />
{<br />
puts("Couldn't not open device");<br />
}<br />
<br />
delete lpFileName;<br />
<br />
return( _hFileHandle != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE );<br />
}<br />
<br />
BOOL CloseDevice()<br />
{<br />
return CloseHandle( _hFileHandle );<br />
}<br />
<br />
int GetPacket()<br />
{<br />
char outBuffer[256];<br />
<br />
int nBytesRead = -1;<br />
<br />
if (_hFileHandle!=INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)<br />
{<br />
ReadFile(_hFileHandle, dataInBuffer, nBytesToRead, (PULONG) &nBytesRead,0);<br />
}<br />
<br />
memset(outBuffer,0,maxPacketSize*sizeof(char));<br />
memcpy(outBuffer,dataInBuffer,maxPacketSize*sizeof(char));<br />
<br />
return nBytesRead;<br />
}<br />
};
My problem right now it how to pass the outBuffer variable in the GetPacket method outside the class.
If I let the variable being declared inside the function, it gets erase when the function ends and my data goes with it.
If I declare that variable in the class itself, the compiler says the following:
'outBuffer' : must explicitly specify __gc or __nogc for an array declared in a managed type
And if I put the __gc attribute on the variable, then the compiler tells the following:
'identifier' : '__gc' can only be applied to a class, struct, interface, array or pointer
So... what do I have to do in order to make this variable available in the C# side?
I'm using char, because I need a signed 8-bit value on each position of the array.
Can anyone give me some lights here?
Thanks,
Nuno

You are using the obsolete Managed C++ syntax. Are you using a compiler that don't support C++/CLI? If not, I would suggest you to rewrite this in C++/CLI.

Hi,
You could try something like this:
#pragma once
#include <memory.h>;
#include <string.h>;
using namespace System;
namespace CnvBuffLib
{
public __gc class ConvertBuffer
{
const char __nogc * const _buffer;
static const int bsize = 256;
public:
ConvertBuffer()
: _buffer(new char __nogc [bsize])
{
}
~ConvertBuffer()
{
delete [] _buffer;
}
int GetPacket()
{
char tmp[] = {'t', 'e', 's', 't'};
int tmplen = sizeof(tmp);
char __nogc * _bp = const_cast<char*>(_buffer);
_bp = static_cast<char*>(memset(_bp, 0, bsize));
memcpy(_bp, tmp, tmplen);
return tmplen;
}
SByte GetData() __gc []
{
int rlen = strlen(_buffer);
if(rlen == 0)
return 0;
SByte result[] = new SByte[rlen];
char __pin * presult = &result[0];
memcpy(presult, _buffer, rlen);
return result;
}
};
}
