just for the correction :
conio.h exists on Microsoft plateform, but not gotoxy() which is - as you said - implemented by borland...

Hi,
if you are doing it on linux use the "curses.h" and you need to go to the screen mode from the text mode and execute in that mode ,but remember when you come out of it set it back to text mode ,posibly thats what they also do in game programming .

Is there a way to enumerate all of the DLL's that are loaded by an executable? I have an executable that loads a DLL that I wrote and I want to get a resource from within that DLL. Just like the 'Dependency Walker' that came with MSVC++6 does...
When I use LoadLibrary() on the executable file itself, it can't find the resource, nor get any address to functions within it using GetProcAddress(). I'm assuming the LoadLibrary function doesn't load the DLL's, even if they are linked into the executable at compile time (with an import library).
I want to be able to get a resource from this DLL, but I only have the executable to deal with and so I won't know where, or which version of the DLL is being used by the executable.
Thanks,
Tom

Thanks, this looks to be similiar to the EnumProcesses(), OpenProcess(), EnumProcessModules(), type of functions I have found since I posted.
However, in all cases, these functions need the process to be running to get a PID. Is there any way to figure out this information without having the process running? I don't want to run it, only want to examine it...
Thanks,

Nothing comes to mind as of right away except for starting the suspended process and than grabbing his modules but if you'll figure out a better solution could you please tell me how to do it ?

Well, I think I solved my original problem and so now I don't even need to have a DLL.
What I was trying to do have an .exe use a DLL that just contained a version info resource so I could determine what version of our libraries the .exe was built with. Just using LoadLibrary() on the .exe wouldn't give me any info on the resource, I guess because the DLL does not get loaded; only when it is executed. So I wanted to figure a way to find all the DLL's, search for my version DLL, use LoadLibrary() on it, then get the version resource...whew...
What I have finally figured out is that you can export functions from a .exe! So, I created a header file that the .exe includes (indirectly, by other includes, so it will *always* be included) that exports a function. Then, I can call LoadLibrary() on the .exe, use GetProcAddress() to get a pointer to the exported function, then call it to determine the version, walla! And *much* simpler...
See my following post showing the .h:

Hello everyone! 
Can anyone PLEASE help me? Look:
http://sulfurmidis.com/mazzee.zip
OK... The code crashes at MazzeeGame.cpp at line 940. It seems that the game pointer in Mazzee.cpp is NULL at the time the Mazzee_MoveMonsters thread (in Mazzee.cpp) calls the Mazzee::MoveMonsters()game pointer has all of it's variables set up correctly! Why is this? Does anyone know? Thanks!

I think you'd be better off posting the line and a few lines of surrounding code, than getting someone to download a zip file.

Looks to me like the values in objects in the monsters array are not initialised, they all have values like -8432573.

I do initialize them in MazzeeGame.cpp in lines 295-299:
monsters = new Monster[f_monsters];<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].Location = x-sub;<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].VerticalLocation = x-sub / width;<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].SteppingChar.Attributes = c_black;<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].SteppingChar.Char.AsciiChar = ' ';
HOLD ON A SECOND. I think I realized what the problem is... What does this do:
monsters = new Monster[f_monsters];
Does it clean out the entire array? Or does it just resize it?
I just tried this: realloc(monsters, f_monsters); instead, but I still get the error... How do I resize an array correctly? (Those two haven't worked yet...) Thanks!

realloc is C, don't use it.
Kixdemp wrote: monsters = new Monster[f_monsters];
If there was an array there already, it leaks memory. It creates a new block of memory, with new objects, none of them initialised.

I'd suggest you look into std::vector if you want a dynamically sizing array.

Using a vector will not initialise the values in it, it simply gives you a dynamically sizing array. You still need to set the initial values for the variables in the struct you're storing in the vector.
How does the vector get set up ? Can you post some code ?

Here's the declaration:
std::vector<Monster> monsters;
And here's how I initialize it:
monsters.resize(f_monsters);<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].Location = x-sub;<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].VerticalLocation = x-sub / width;<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].SteppingChar.Attributes = c_black;<br />
monsters[f_monsters-1].SteppingChar.Char.AsciiChar = ' ';
Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!

How is this initialising anything ? You shouldn't have to call resize. Where do you call push_back ?

monsters[f_monsters-1].SteppingChar.Attributes = c_black;
monsters[f_monsters-1].SteppingChar.Char.AsciiChar = ' ';
This sets up one object, the last in the list. What about the rest of them ?

push_back is how you add things to a vector.
Monster m;
m.strength = 100;
//etc
monsters.push_back(m);

Oh... alright!
But something still seems uninitialized... even though I initialize everything in the constructor, when I put a checkpoint in PaintMap(), the stuff still has weird numbers... Why is this? Thanks!

Hi there!
I'm trying to write somthing like this:
template <typename T> class tVar {
public:
virtual operator = ( T );
virtual operator = ( SomethingElse );
private:
T Data;
};
but a problem as arrised here. I'd like SomethingElse to also be a template so I could do:
tVar<SomeType> MyVar;
MyVar<SomeOtherType> = ( SomeOtherType )SomeOtherVar;
Can this be done? If not, i would apreciate some suggestions
Thx!
Peace [[]]

Of course it can be done. If it could not, then the standard template library (STL) would not work. But it depends on what the template class does and what requirements are placed on the on arguments to the template.
Examples:
vector<vector<int> >; // space between > and > required
vector<string>; // string is defined as basicstring<char>
INTP
Every thing is relative...

I have a shortcut defined as
%windir%\SYSTEM32\RUNDLL32.EXE "d:\Omega16 xxx\g32csg.dll,FONTMANAGERDIALOG"
rundll32 does not give me any error nor does it execute g32csg.dll. If I change it to
%windir%\SYSTEM32\RUNDLL32.EXE "d:\Omega16\g32csg.dll,FONTMANAGERDIALOG"
with no space in the Omega16 part of the name and also change the actual folder name it works. Any path with spaces doesn't seem to work. This has to be simple but I'm missing it
This is on a W2K system. rundll32 version is 5.0.2134.1
Thanks in advance
