I knew that of course because I saw the time difference, see I'm not as dumb as you think, pretty close though. Wink | ;)

Calling .NET DLL from MFC app

hairy_hats10-Jan-08 4:27

10-Jan-08 4:27

Hi all,

Is it feasible/possible/desirable to call a .NET DLL from an unmanaged VC6 MFC application?

TIA.

jhwurmbach10-Jan-08 4:45

VC6?
More difficult.

With any recent version (Compiler version 7.1 = VC2003 is much much better than the braindead VC6 one!), you could quite simply devise a Bridge-DLL containing managed C++-code.
In VC6, this doesn't work. You probably could produce the Bridge-DLL with VC2003 and use it from your VC6 project....

Let's think the unthinkable, let's do the undoable, let's prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.

Thanks for the info. Smile | :)

That's not so good (for me!). How about accessing a VC6 MFC DLL from C# .NET?

jhwurmbach10-Jan-08 4:56

jhwurmbach

10-Jan-08 4:56

I must admit I never did so.
I don't think it works, as the DLL and the application would link to different versions of the same classes.
But maybe this[^] can help you?

[edit]
A COM-Wrapper to the .NET-Part is a way in which you can access the managed code from VC6.

I am by no means an expert, just a user of Bridges devised by others. Sorry.

I think that a bridge DLL is what I need. Thanks for the help.

A bridging COM dll is the way to go but you probably won't be able to write it in VC6. From the VC6 side tlaking to a COM Dll is fine and from the .NET side COM Interop works really well but somewhere along the line you've got to write the COM interop code with a newer Visual Studio.

Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.

MFC and printing financial reports (numbers in a grid, essentially) of more then one page

10-Jan-08 6:03

Yeah, I gathered that. If I could find some code that largely reproduced CScrollView in .NET, and let me show pages on-screen whose dimensions were lifted from the current printer settings, then I could go about updating the MFC code, but I've yet to find something that does that. *Sigh*

Hello,

I'm very interested in using Richard Stringer's Printing Class Library ( http://www.codeproject.com/KB/printing/printlib.aspx )to generate simple financial paper reports (numbers in a grid, essentially). This library, while very advanced, appears to be incapable of displaying multiple pages, or wrapping data onto a new page.

Has anyone had any success in using these classes to print multiple pages? Could someone suggest a class for printing arbitrarily lengthed financial data, complete with print preview?

Thanks a lot,
Sternocera

MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pNode = NULL;
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodeListPtr pXMLDomNodeList = NULL;
MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pRootNode= NULL;

EVAL_HR(CoInitialize(NULL));

// Create MSXML DOM object
EVAL_HR(pXMLDoc.CreateInstance(("Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0")));

// Step 1: Creating the Processing Instruction

pPI = pXMLDoc->createProcessingInstruction
("xml", "version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'");

_variant_t vNullVal;
vNullVal.vt = VT_NULL;
pXMLDoc->insertBefore(pPI, vNullVal);

// ---------------------------------------------
// Step 2: Creating the Root Element

_variant_t varNodeType((short)MSXML2::NODE_ELEMENT);

pRootNode= pXMLDoc->createNode(varNodeType,
("Root"),(""));
pXMLDoc->appendChild(pRootNode);

// ------------------------------------------
// Step 3: Creating Attribute Node

MSXML2::IXMLDOMNodePtr pAttNode= NULL;

// Step 4: Creating attribute name element
MSXML2::IXMLDOMAttributePtr pattIdAttr = NULL;
pattIdAttr= pXMLDoc->createAttribute(("Name"));
pattIdAttr->nodeTypedValue = ("Namevalue");
pAttNode->attributes->setNamedItem(pattIdAttr);
//doc.DocumentElement.AppendChild(newElem);

//xe.Element("address").SetElement("city", "MANCHESTER");

I see no error checking. Could any of the methods you are calling be returning an error status?

Scanline problem in bitmap

10-Jan-08 2:37

sharanu wrote:
pAttNode->attributes->setNamedItem(pattIdAttr);

The above line is wrong, since pAttNode is NULL.

I changed that line with

pRootNode->attributes->setNamedItem(pattIdAttr);

and the file was correctly created (with the attribute added to the root element).
