When I try to open the resource file (.rc) using the Resource Editor in Visual Studio .NET, I get an error telling me "opened in another editor". I did a little digging and I think this file is saved as UNICODE. I tried to save as US-ANSI but that did do anything? Might anyone know what this is and how to fix it?
Thanks!

You will see this message if you open the .rc file (or the resource.h file) in the text editor, and then try to edit the resources using the resource editor.
Note that .rc files will not compile when saved as UNICODE.
Another thing to try is to delete the file named <project>.aps in your project directory. This file is used by the IDE to store a parsed version of the .rc file while you are using the resource editor. It's not uncommon for this file to get messed up. Deleting it is harmless, as the IDE will recreate it as needed.
Software Zen: delete this;
|
|
|
|
|
The rc files are opened anywhere else. they opened before but that was a while ago. A lot could have changed, but I never remember saving them as unicode unless it happened on accident. I tried deleting the .aps file. Nothing seemed to happen. I tried, rebooting the machine, closing the application. Every .rc file will not open for my project. 
that is too weird.

I managed to fix the issue by reinstalling Visual Studio.
Thanks for the help!

Why does the output of driver.get_name() display a number instead of the string of characters passed to driver.set_name() ?
I've not done C++ in quite some time so any help would be great.
Thanks in advance.
code:
///////////////// from .cpp file ///////////////
details driver;
driver.set_name("abc");
cout << "name = " << driver.get_name() << endl;
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/////////////////////// the class /////////////////////////////////////////
#ifndef DETAILS_H
#define DETAILS_H
class details
{
public:
int get_name();
int get_grade();
void set_name(char name[3]);
void set_grade(int the_grade);
private:
int name[3];
int grade;
};
int details::get_name()
{
return name[3];
}
int details::get_grade()
{
return grade;
}
void details::set_name(char the_name[3])

As I see you don't have any knowledge or experiences on programming!
You made a critical mistake which normally won't happen if you had experience in programming in general.
you defined:
int name[3];
that means, that the "name" array has 3 indexes... 0, 1, 2
return name[3]; or name[3] = the_name[3]; <- this will never work because index 3 is not part of the array.
in some cases this can be very critical. Exploits often work by using software errors to write on memory areas not being part of the array.
Don't try it, just do it!

Alexander, thank you so much for your reply. I see exactly what I did wrong. When I realised I had the index at the wrong size it printed a number out instead of the char. I had the return type as int so it must've been casting the char to an int.
If I wanted to store a string of chars would I better declaring them as a string or sticking with an array? If I stick with an array I would need to loop round the array to display all the array elements, is there a better/neater way to do it?
Cheers in advance for any tips.

This is what is required please help me:
void dt_start(void)
initializes the full screen routines. This should be called before
calling any of the other "dt" functions (and may only be called once
before dt_stop() is called to stop using the full screen rountines).
void dt_stop(void)
shuts down the use of the terminal control routines, and ensures
that the cursor is not left in the middle of screen full of stuff.
Note that a program which has called dt_start() (defined above) must
call this function before terminating.
int dt_rows(void)
returns the number of rows on the screen.
int dt_columns(void)
returns the number of columns on the screen.
void dt_clear(void)
clears the screen, ensuring the cursor is in the upper left corner
when finished.
void dt_flush(void)
ensures that any full screen output which has been sent to the
screen actually gets there (i.e. this "flushes the output buffer").
int dt_getchar(void)
flushes screen output (if there is any pending output which has not
yet been displayed), waits for a key to be pressed and returns an
int value uniquely identifying the key pressed. Note that for
non-ASCII keys, the value for a key is system dependent, but the
following symbolic names should be set up appropriately (in dtio.h):
UP_KEY - the value for the up arrow key
DOWN_KEY - the value for the down arrow key
LEFT_KEY - the value for the left arrow key
RIGHT_KEY - the value for the right arrow key
PGUP_KEY - the value for the page up (or previous screen) key
PGDN_KEY - the value for the page down (or next screen) key
ENTER_KEY - the value for the enter (or carriage return) key
TAB_KEY - the value for the tab key
BS_KEY - the value for the backspace key
DEL_KEY - the value for the delete key
HOME_KEY - the value for the home key
END_KEY - the value for the end key
ESC_KEY - the value for the escape key
INS_KEY - the value for the insert key
F1_KEY, F2_KEY, ... F10_KEY - the values for the F1 through
F10 keys, respectively
void dt_cursor(int row, int column)
positions the cursor at the row and column specified, where row 0 is
the top row and column 0 is the left-most column. (Note that the
results are not defined if the row or column is invalid. Note also
that on systems where output is buffered, this function does NOT
flush the output buffer.)
void dt_putchar(int c)
outputs the character, with the ASCII code stored in "c", at the
current position on the screen. This function advances the cursor by
one position, although the results are system dependent if the
cursor is already at the right edge of the screen. (Note that on
systems where output is buffered, this function does not flush the
output buffer).
void dt_puts(const char *s)
outputs the null-terminated string pointed to by "s", starting at
the current position on the screen. Afterwards, the cursor position
is just after the last character that was displayed. The results are
not defined if the length of the string exceeds the available space
left on the current line of output. (Note that on systems where
output is buffered, this function does not flush the output buffer,
and that if the last character of the string appears on the last
column of the string, the position of the cursor will be system
dependent).
void dt_display(const char *s, int row, int column, int length)
outputs the null-terminated string pointed to by "s", in a field of
the screen starting at row "row" and column "column" of the screen,
for a length of "length" characters. As with dt_cursor, 0 is the top
row, and 0 is the leftmost column. If the string is longer than
"length", then only "length" characters are displayed, but if it is
shorter than "length", then the entire string is displayed, followed
by enough trailing spaces to fill out the field. However, if
"length" is 0 or less, then the field length is considered to be the
actual length of the string (i.e. the entire string is displayed).
Afterwards, the cursor is positioned after the last position of the
field. (Note that on systems where output is buffered, this function
does not flush the output buffer, and that if the last character of
the string appears on the last column of the string, the position of
the cursor will be system dependent). The results are undefined if
the specified values indicate a field which does not fit on the
screen.
int dt_edit(char *s, int row, int col, int flen, int slen, int *ppos,
int *poff)
allows the user to perform full screen editing of a null-terminated
string in a single-line field on the screen. The parameters are:
s - points to the string being edited.
row - the row of the screen for the field, where 0 is the top row
of the screen.
col - the starting column for the field, where 0 is the left-most
column of the screen.
flen - the length of the field in which editing is performed, or
0, in which case the initial length of "s" determines the
field length. Note that the field length determines the
maximum number of characters from the string that can be
displayed at the same time.
slen - the maximum possible length for the string, or 0, in which
case the field length is also the maximum string length. If
this is larger than the field length, then it will be
possible for the user to enter a string larger than what can
be displayed in the field, and so the string will have to be
"scrolled" as it it edited so that the position of the
cursor within the string will always be visible.
ppos - this is either NULL or it points to an int containing the
current position of the cursor within the field, where 0
means that the cursor is on the first position of the field.
If it is non-NULL, note that this parameter has two uses: it
determines the starting location of the cursor within the
field and it is used to communicate back to the calling
function where the cursor was when editing stopped.
If this parameter is NULL, the cursor initially is placed on
the first character of the field, and the calling function
will not be able to know where the cursor was when editing
stopped.
poff - this is either NULL or it points to an int containing the
index of the character from the string which appears in the
first position of the field, i.e. the offset by which the
string is scrolled.
If it is non-NULL, note that this parameter has two uses: it
determines the initial scrolling offset when editing starts
and it is used to communicate back to the calling function
how much the string was scrolled when editing stopped.
If this parameter is NULL, the first character of the string
is initially displayed in the first position of the field,
and the calling function will not be able to find out how
much the string was scrolled when editing stopped.
The cursor is never allowed to move before the start of the field or
more than one position past the last character in the string or the
field, whichever comes first. Additionally, in the case where the
field ends at the edge of the screen, the cursor is not allowed past
the edge of the screen.
Editing is terminated by pressing ENTER_KEY, TAB_KEY, ESC_KEY,
UP_KEY, DOWN_KEY, PGUP_KEY, PGDN_KEY or any of the function keys
F1_KEY to F10_KEY. (You may extend this to include all function
keys, if you wish). If ESC_KEY is used to terminate editing, then
editing is aborted - the string is left containing the data
originally passed to dt_edit(), the variables pointed to by ppos and
poff (if any) retain their original values, and the original string
value is redisplayed.
The function returns an int identifying the the key that was pressed
to exit. (This function uses the same key codes as dt_getchar()
above).
The function takes no action (other than perhaps beeping) if the
user tries to enter too many characters (if, for example, the string
is full in insert mode, or the cursor is positioned after the last
character of a full string in overstrike mode).
The function handles at least the following special keys:
LEFT_KEY - move left one character, if possible.
RIGHT_KEY - move right one character, if possible.
HOME_KEY - go to the beginning of the string.
END_KEY - go to the end of the data in the string, i.e. just
past the last character in the string. (If the last
character is at the edge of the screen, then END goes to
that character).
INS_KEY - toggle Insert/Overstrike mode (the default is Insert).
In Insert mode, printable characters are inserted into the
string, moving the remainder of the string to the right to
make room. In Overstrike mode, printable characters
overwrite existing characters (if any). Note that if you are
past the end of the string, printable characters are
appended to the string (as long as the string isn't full)
regardless of the mode. Also note that, regardless of the
mode, the cursor advances as printable characters are typed
into the string.
DEL_KEY - eat the current character and move all subsequent
characters one position to the left.
BS_KEY - move the rest of the string (including the cursor) one
position to the left, if possible, eating the previous
character.
Any normal printable key is simply placed into the string according
to the rules laid out in the discussion of the INS_KEY key above.
(The keys from the space character to the tilde character in the
ASCII table are considered "printable".)
The dt_edit() function always shows blanks in any the part of the
field that is not occupied by the data in the string. UNDER NO
CIRCMUSTANCES DOES THE FUNCTION CHANGE ANY POSITION ON THE SCREEN
OUTSIDE OF THE FIELD. For example, it is important that you don't
display status information (such as "INS" or "OVR") elsewhere on the
screen, since this will limit the programmer's ability to design
screen layouts.
Like most C library functions, your dt_edit() may assume that it is
the calling program's reponsibility to ensure that the array is
large enough to handle the specified number of characters, and that
the starting screen position provides enough room (on the screen)
for the field, etc.
Technical Note: in order to be able to restore the string to its
original value, you will need a backup copy of it. Since you won't
be able to predict the size of the string to be edited at compile
time, the only safe way to do this is by using dynamic memory
allocation. Investigate the functions strdup(), malloc() and free()
to learn how to do this in C.
These functions are to be declared in a file named dtio.h along with the
symbolic key codes mentioned above. The functions are to be defined in a
file named dtio.c. They should compile and work properly (according to
the specs above) in both the "Command Prompt box" under Windows (you may
use either the Borland C++ compiler or the Microsoft Visual C++
compiler, although you are on your own for technical help with Visual
C++), the AIX cc environment on phobos, and the Linux cc (gcc)
environment on matrix. At most one or two lines of dtio.h should need to
be modified when changing from one environment to another.

If you think that someone is going to read all this and answer you, then u r totally wrong. Try to be precise and tell the exact problem which you are facing. Copying whole file here is not an ideal thing to do.
Imagine that you are creating a fabric of human destiny with the object of making men happy in the end, giving them peace and rest at last, but that it was essential and inevitable to torture to death only one tiny creature..and to found that edifice on its unavenged tears, would you consent to be the architect on those conditions?

Actually the main probelem i am facing is making the edit function in this as i am not able to get the flen,slen , ppos and ppof i mean i am not able to grasp what these will be and also what is the us eof the paramaters row and cols:
So this is the function which i am facing probelm in and i would be pleased if you can help me with this that is why i send the complete file to understand the thing which is going on in the program. So just read the things to be done in the edit function.
int dt_edit(char *s, int row, int col, int flen, int slen, int *ppos,int *poff)

Are there anybody have experience about this problem? CMenu::GetMenuItemInfo always returns 0 in WinNT and GetLastError() returns 87 which means "The parameter is incorrect." This never happened in other platforms. Drop me your advice to fix this. Thanks so much.

Without seeing code, my guess is you aren't initializing the cbSize member of your MENUITEMINFO struct.

Some lines of simple code:
MENUITEMINFO mmi, temp;<br />
ZeroMemory(&mmi,sizeof(mmi));<br />
mmi.cbSize = sizeof(mmi);<br />
mmi.fMask = MIIM_DATA;<br />
mmi.dwItemData = (DWORD) pData;<br />
::SetMenuItemInfo(pMenu->m_hMenu, nPos, TRUE, &mmi);<br />
temp.cbSize = sizeof(MENUITEMINFO);<br />
temp.fMask = MIIM_DATA;<br />
BOOL rc = ::GetMenuItemInfo(pMenu->m_hMenu, nPos, TRUE, &temp);<br />
if (!rc) {<br />
int iErrCode = GetLastError();
}
When waiting for your replies, I found that the function GetMenuItemInfo will work properly in WinNT if (cbSize==sizeof(MENUITEMINFO) - 4). I think the problem is somewhere around the WINVER. In WinUser.h I saw these:
typedef struct tagMENUITEMINFOW<br />
{<br />
UINT cbSize;<br />
UINT fMask;<br />
UINT fType;
UINT fState;
UINT wID;
HMENU hSubMenu;
HBITMAP hbmpChecked;
HBITMAP hbmpUnchecked;
ULONG_PTR dwItemData;
LPWSTR dwTypeData;
UINT cch;
#if(WINVER >= 0x0500)<br />
HBITMAP hbmpItem;
#endif<br />
}
So, I think the function GetMenuItemInfo failed in Windows NT because of the size of returned variable LPMENUITEMINFO(&temp). GetMenuItemInfo expected to see the size of returned variable is 44. However, sizeof(MENUITEMINFO) returned 48. In my opinion, this caused the error. Anyway, thanks for your replies.

I currently have a c++ client application which communicates with a COM server. This application was set up to allow the programmatic bypassing of declarative security. In other words, the application can read information from the registry that will provide a user, password, domain, authentication level, and impersonation level. This allows the administrator to set up clients to impersonate a single user with the necessary launch and access permissions on the COM server.
Recently, we have created a new .NET client that needs to have the same functionality. Does anyone know how to programmatically bypass declarative security in C#? There appears to be plenty of information on how to set up a .NET client to communicate with an unmanaged c++ COM server, but not much information on how to bypass security, if it's even a possibility.
Thanks!

Is it possible to easily to convert wchar string to CString without using
sth like L"test".
David
|
|
|
|
|
CString str = _T( "String" );
or
CString str( _T( "String" ) );
Don't try it, just do it!

How about convert CString to WCHAR easily?
David

It is easily!
Don't try it, just do it!

Just assign the wchar_t string to a CString variable. CString has a constructor that takes a LPCWSTR and will do the character set conversion for you if necessary.

I have made a custom configuration based on my Release configuration in VS.Net 2003. In this version, I want to have SHOWSERVERDIALOG automatically #defined. I thought I saw it once somewhere in properties, but I can't find it now. My code looks like this and I don't want to have to manually #define SHOWSERVERDIALOG when I make a build for this config.
#ifdef SHOWSERVERDIALOG
strServer = GetProfileString(_T("Settings"),_T("Server"),_T(""));
if(!strServer.GetLength())
{
CServerDlg dlg;
if(dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
strServer = dlg.m_strServerName;
}
#else
strServer = _T("TITANIC");

Hi everybody,
I want to explore more of creating a file database on my own. I can already create a system with fixed-length records in binary format to add, delete and search through it, with file headers and manipulating at the bytes level. Now I would like to find any sources (articles, books, code...) to see how to go about creating a variable fixed records (providing the type of the value that will be stored in the record), how to internally organise the tables, how to link tables, etc...
The purpose of it is to use it in some simple applications to escape the overload of bringing the MDAC, Jet and other componenets into the installation, if I am not going to need any high-performance database, but still wish to have a data storage.
I searched all over the net, but could not find much details about it.
Thanks a lot in advance.
