I want to design an MFC program that processes part numbers, I'm not sure which is the best way to go. Could someone please give me some advice on creating this type of program. I've had two people recommend a database, but I'd like to hear a few more opinions.
Thanks much

Hello. I am doing a about cd-rom test program. I want to read CD-ROM data test. But I don't know read CD-ROM data. Can you help me? Thanks.
welcome to meet you!

You can open the CD as a volume. This way you reads the volume in raw mode (sector by sector).
The trick is to open the volume like this (assuming your CD-Rom i drive G:, (char) m_CurDrive == 'G')
#include "winioctl.h"
...
char NtDriveName[10];
sprintf(NtDriveName, "\\\\.\\%c:", m_CurDrive);
hDrive = CreateFile(
NtDriveName,
GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE,
0,
NULL,
OPEN_EXISTING,
0,
NULL
);
Then you lock the drive and read geometry for it (in order to get the sector size):
DWORD ReturnedByteCount;
DeviceIoControl(hDrive, FSCTL_LOCK_VOLUME,
NULL, 0, NULL, 0, &ReturnedByteCount,
NULL);
// Get the geometry:
DISK_GEOMETRY Geometry;
DeviceIoControl(hDrive, IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY,
NULL, 0, &Geometry, sizeof(Geometry),
&ReturnedByteCount, NULL);
// Now you got the sector size (in Geometry.BytesPerSector).
// At this point, you can unlock the volume if you wish. It's the IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY call who needs the drive to be locked.
IoBuffer = malloc (Geometry.BytesPerSector);
....
// Read sector by sector, starts with sector 0
// Positionera
if(SetFilePointer(hDrive, (long)
(Geometry.BytesPerSector * (int) "your wanted start-sector"),
NULL, FILE_BEGIN) == 0xFFFFFFFF) {
// Couldn't seek to it.
return FALSE;
}
// Read
b = ReadFile(hDrive,IoBuffer, Geometry.BytesPerSector, &BytesRead, NULL);
if (b && BytesRead){
// OK, read
.....
}
.....
// unlock the volume
DeviceIoControl(hDisk, FSCTL_UNLOCK_VOLUME,
NULL, 0, NULL, 0, &ReturnedByteCount,
NULL);
// close the volume
CloseHandle(hDrive);
free IoBuffer;
Note, this code isn't compiled! But it's assembled from working code (a routine that reads UNIX tar-media (diskettes and CD) in NT 4).
Good luck.
Kakan.

I would like to create an active X control using VC++ 6.0 in which, apart from my application specific properties and methods , I also want to have a MsComm Control (for serial port communications) as a member variable in the user activeX property page class which gets generated by the apllication wizard. The following are the steps I had taken to do so.
1. Used MFC ActiveX control Wizard to create a ActiveX application.
2. Added the MsComm active X control in the resource tool box. (The phone icon was visible in the toolbox)
3. Added the MsComm Control in the Property page dialog box (which was created automatically by the wizard).
4. Assigned a member variable, say, m_Comm to the control.
5. Added a method to the control class (automatically generated by the wizard) called OpenPort, in which I called the m_Comm.SetSettings("9600,N,8,1") function.
6. Compiled and created a ActiveX control.
So far so good ..... No Hassles.
7. Created a Dialog based MFC application in which I used this ActiveX control. Provided a button in the dialog to trigger the OpenPort Function of the active X.
Now the hassles start......
8. The program crashes.
9. I debugged the code of the activeX project and found that the address m_Comm variable was NULL instead of a meaningfull value.
Where did I go Wrong?

I do this for an array of COM ports (element 0 shown):
Comport[0] = &m_comm0;
// Set up the COM ports
Comport[0]->SetCommPort( (short)i + 2); // start at COM2
Comport[0]->SetInBufferSize(2040); // both buffers to just under 2K
Comport[0]->SetOutBufferSize(2040);
Comport[0]->SetRThreshold(1); // call OnComm event after 1 char reced.
Comport[0]->SetSettings(cstr1);
if (! Comport[0]->GetPortOpen()) // if the port is closed, open it
Comport[i]->SetPortOpen(TRUE);
Also, the ON_COMM event handler is set up to be called by 1 character recieved. Note that var is declared as a VARIANT and that the condition of checking for a non zero length is because once in several million events this is called with no received character. There may be more than one character received in the string.
if(Comport[Port]->GetCommEvent() == 2)
{
VARIANT var;
// character(s) received ?
var.vt = VT_BSTR; // yes, we get a BSTR back
var = Comport[Port]->GetInput();
cstr1 = var.bstrVal; // convert to a CString for convenience
if(cstr1.GetLength() > 0) // if anything to add
{
// do it here
}
}

have you included shlobj.h?

Exactly, I've done that, but error is still there,later on , I try this:
#pragma comment(lib, "shell32")
It does not work yet! I dont know why!

I don't know then. This is what I got from MSDN on the error:
Compiler Error C2065
'identifier' : undeclared identifier
The specified identifier was not declared.
A variable’s type must be specified in a declaration before it can be used. The parameters that a function uses must be specified in a declaration, or prototype, before the function can be used.
Tips
Make sure any include file containing the required declaration is not omitted.
Make sure you are including any necessary header files if you have defined VC_EXTRALEAN, WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN, or WIN32_EXTRA_LEAN. Defining these symbols excludes some functionality (certain header files are excluded) from windows.h and afxv_w32.h (for MFC applications) to speed compiles. Search windows.h and afxv_w32.h for these symbols for the most up-to-date description of what is excluded.
Make sure the identifier name is spelled correctly.
Make sure the identifier is using the correct upper- and lowercase letters.
Make sure all string constants have closing quotes.
This error can be caused by having a newline character in a string constant without a continuation character. For example:
#include <stdio.h>
main() {
printf("\n %s
%s // error: 's' : undeclared identifier
%s",
"this", "is", "it");
}
Special considerations must be taken when splitting a constant string over several lines. The most common method is to change the format string. Strings separated only by whitespace (spaces, tabs, newlines) are concatenated. For example:
#include <stdio.h>
main() {
printf("\n %s"
" %s"
" %s",
"this", "is", "it");
}
An older, less-preferred method is to use line continuation by typing a backslash at the end of a line. For example:
printf("\n %s\
%s\
%s",
"this", "is", "it");
This method is not often used because the spaces at the beginning of each continued line become part of the string.
Make sure you're using proper namespace scope. For example, in order to properly resolve ANSI C++ Standard Library functions and operators, you must state that you're using the std namespace with the using directive.
For example, unless the using directive is uncommented, the following sample will fail to compile because the cout stream is defined in the std namespace:
#include <iostream>
// using namespace std;
void main()
{
cout << "Hello" << endl;
}

Writing is easy but reading is not that simple. Check this website [^] for an example. Also search MSDN for serial communications.

If you read the article that kuphryn gave you, maybe that example won't seem so hard. I agree with you when you say that it is too hard, because I had the same problem when I first saw the example a few years ago, but the thing is that I was unable to find anything more simple. I don't know how comfortable you are with threads because you have to use them. On the other hand just ignore all the stuff that seems complicated to you because you won't need most of it. I wish I could help you with some sample code, but unfortunately I don't have any available. Just take a look at [^] because there are some classes that deal with serial communications.

Look for this article on this site. Read it and implement.

Good luck.

Here is a link to MSDN that shows a good design sample from Microsoft.

Hi All,
Anyway know how to process PowerPoint files other than using office automation? I need a threaded service, COM SERVER, etc, etc, that can export the slides from a PowerPoint deck, into individual images, like jpegs. I wrote a simple ASP COM object using the automation APIs, but it seems that its not threaded so multiple requests end up getting queued, just not a very good solution. If anyone knows of anything, please let me know.
Thanks,
Rick

Either write your own file parser/renderer, or download the OpenOffice[^] source code and extract the PowerPoint stuff. However, it's not that simple - The source is about 180MB compressed...
You might be able to find a commercial solution, but I've been looking for something similar and haven't found anything yet.

Do you want a static matrix or a dynamic matrix?
