I have been tasked with writing an HTTP reverse proxy to run under IIS to re-route HTTP requests to other IIS servers based on some URI mapping rules and addding some message authentication codes (HMACs) to the request for security.
I have been considering writing this component in managed C++. I have created a prototype ISAPI filter in managed C++ and it seems to work OK.
My questions are:
- Does anybody have any experience doing this?
- Are there any bad interactions of running the CLR in IIS's process space?
- Should I go down the unmanaged C++ route? I have had good experience with this before, but I like being able to take advantage of all the classes in the .NET Framwork and not having to deal with MSXML, CryptoAPI, WinHTTP, etc.
- Right now we are using IIS 5.X and we'll probably upgrade to IIS 6 in the next 9 months, is there anything I need to consider for IIS6>
Thanks

Have you looked at ATL Server classes? Everything you want in unmanaged C++.

Yes, I have looked at them briefly and they seem reasonable.
The only thing I did not complete liked was the fact that for a lot of the wrapper classes the HRESULT still has to be checked after method invocation and this opened up the possibility of missing some error checking and having the error go undetected.
The thing that I liked about the .NET Framework classes is that all errors are reported through exceptions.
Not a huge deal though.
Thanks for the response.

I've been looking for the way to get system BIOS information similar to the manner in which msinfo32 works so that I can store the value in a variable for a BIOS Update Utility that I'm writing.
So far I haven't been able to find much on the subject. Can anyone help?

Can you tell me how to read/write the BIOS
I have taken up a project about cmos
Thank you in advance

Hi Dears
I want to develop a MS Word Addin. The main functionality of this addin is:
--> I have to convert a MS Word file (.doc) into (.pdf) file format.
What should I take as first step to implement this functionality.
Kindly guide/help me in the form of some code/link.
I'll be grateful to you.
Kind Regards

How do I invoke a thread that will be able to update Form components? In managed c++ it seems that the thread function needs to be declared as a static function. Then inside my funtion I do not seem to have access to the form.
Help.
I'm looking for a code snipit that show the thread invocation and the code inside the thread function that accesses a form component.
Thanks in advance
Jonathan Beck

You can just add a thread function to your form class:
public __gc class T3DConfiguration : public System::Windows::Forms::Form {
...
void ThreadProc ();
...
};
And then start the thread like this:
System::Thread *t = new System::Thread (new System.ThreadStart (this, YourForm::ThreadProc));
t->Start ();
Inside the thread procedure you can acces your form as you like. It does not have to be static.

I'm reading a binary column from an ADO.NET dataset into a byte array with no problem. I can then write that buffer out to disk. I've opened my images with other products and the data is being written correctly.
Now the problem. How can I display the image? I put a static control on a dialog and tried the following but to no avail:
Bitmap* image = new Bitmap(S"c:\\sample.jpg");
CPaintDC dc(&m_wndPhoto);
Graphics* g = Graphics::FromHdc(dc.m_hDC);
g->DrawImage(image, 0, 0);
Cheers,

Tom, just my 2 cents:
1. You are using CPaintDC: are you doing this inside processing WM_PAINT?
2. Your m_wndPhoto window may have empty invalidated region;
3. Shouldn't you be using CDC?
Cheers,

Is there anyway to convert a .Net String class or a __wchar_t __gc[] array to an unsigned char __gc[] array?
thanks
|

Sample Code taken from the MSDN:
<br />
#include < stdio.h ><br />
#include < stdlib.h ><br />
#include < vcclr.h ><br />
#using < mscorlib.dll ><br />
using namespace System;<br />
<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
String __gc* str = S"Hello";<br />
<br />
const wchar_t __pin* p = PtrToStringChars(str);<br />
printf("%S\n", p);<br />
<br />
char* ch = (char *)malloc((str -> Length + 1) * 2);<br />
wcstombs(ch, p, (str -> Length + 1) * 2);<br />
printf("%s\n", ch);<br />
}<br />

I have a program which reads from an audio hardware device some raw image data. I am doing the reading in unmanaged C++, so I have in my managed C++ method a pointer to an unmanaged unsigned char array. I would like to load a bitmap object with this data so I can display the data by calling the DrawImage method on a Graphics object.
How can I transfer an unmnaged 512x1024 unsigned char array into a managed Bitmap object for display? If I dump this memory into a "raw" binary file, I can load the file into Photoshop as an interleaved raw format file.
thanks
Bryan

Could you create a MemoryStream* and use it's Read method to fill the stream, then load an Image* object with it's FromStream method.

But it looks like the Read method reads FROM the stream, and writes TO the buffer. It seems I should use the Write method to Write from the buffer into the Stream. But the problem is still that I need to Write unmanaged data into the Stream, and the Write method takes a managed array.
So I guess one question would be how can I convert my unmanaged array into a managed array so I can than use the Write method. My declaration of my array is as follows:
unsigned char __nogc *buffer = new unsigned char[1024*512];
but when I pass this into the Write method, I get a complier error saying the method expects a unsigned char __gc[], and not an unsigned char __gc*.
Thanks for any additional insight you can add.

When I use the debugger to step through my code, is there any way I can examine the memory pointed to by a String object? When I look at it in the watch window I cannot get the pointer value, likewise when I assign it to a wchar_t __pin * variable, the watch window will not let me access the value of the pointer (it will only show me the value pointed to). So I cannot bring it up in the memory window. Is there any work-around?
Thanks,
Jeremy

Here is a *fun* problem:
How do you prototype a derived class?
To add some code to the situation:
This is what I want to do:
namespace ManagedConsoleXPControls
{
public __gc __abstract class ConsoleControlBase : public CollectionBase;
}
However, good 'ol VS 2003 gives me a nasty error:
c:\Projects\Windows Forms\Managed Console\MC - Console XP\MCXP-Prototypes.h(20): error C2143: syntax error : missing ',' before ';'
I'm quite certain that this error pertains to this single line in the code.
Does anyone have any bright ideas?

Let me try it, but I have the feeling it will cause a "Symbol redefinition" type error.
Even if it doesn't work, thank you dearly for replying 
|
|
|
|
|
Yep, it causes a "'class' type redefinition error" due to the fact that declaring it that way is basically saying ConsoleControlBase is an empty class. Humbug.
Thanks anyway.
Anyone else know how to do this? There has to be some way....

Why do you insist on including the inheritance in the prototype? In C++ you don't do that.
