Hi all,
I am brand new to VC++. I an always having problems with paths when compiling. For instance, the MIDL compiler does not compile if the path of directories include blank spaces (e.g. c:\Program Files\.....). So, I am always compiling with include files in non blank spaces directories (c:\temp\include). What is wrong?
Thank you in advance

Are you try to do something like
#include "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Include\stdio.h"
by any chance?
This is where the difference with include "file" and include <file> comes in.
If you're including a standard system header, just do
#include <stdio.h>
and the compiler will find the header for you.
If it's a header you've written yourself, then it should either be in the same directory as the project, or a "near by" folder, in which case you can just do
#include "myheader.h"
or
#include "../commonheaders/myheader.h"
for example (though in this case, it'd be better to add the "commonheaders" folder into the VC include folders settings, then it'll find it without needing to specify the path)
If you have a common header that's used in multiple projects, you can use source control (i.e. SourceSafe) to share a single file across multiple projects and keep them in sync for you
Hard coding exact directory paths into sourcecode is very bad, as it locks down the code to your specific PC. If you hand the source to someone else to work on, they'll have to have their directory layout identical to yours in order to be able to compile the code, which isn't particularly desirable

I try to make the following:
Has created SDI application and has connected to database through OLEDB
Has put on form Static1 ("name") and Static2 ("surname")
, Editbox ("name" from base), and it would be desirable to make so
That when I enter in Editbox "Alex" in statics showed (or specified) this line in the table (the table is sorted)
Also has then thought how to make so that the cursor (I have connected base to help AppWizard, and it creates four buttons First, Next..) there was at row which I have achieved through Editbox.
Any helps / comments are welcome.

If I have four variables in an optimization system, each with their own lower/upper bound defined and a step increment, is there any elegant way to distribute the search space across several nodes, and cover the entire search scope?
The system that is being optimized is defined in a script developed by the end user. It would be very difficult to derive which optimization components are independent/dependent upon each other, so I guess we assume the worst, that they are all dependent.

This is less of an optimization issue, and more of a distributed issue, so exploring a GA may not necessarily help. I need a way of splitting up my search space so that each segment is independent of each other *and* the entire search space is covered.
I do not see a solution without some sort of interdependence between search agents, which greatly complicates the architecture.

Firstly I apologise for such an awful question...
I have just purchased Visual C++ 6.0 after a while not programming. I used to use Gnu C++ on Unix.
My question is, where in Visual C++ can I activate line numbers for code I have written? Ummm, if I have 200 lines of code, where is the option, like in the Unix compiler I used to use, to list the number of the line of code down the side. Eg, every 5 lines the compiler, in the source coede window, writes 5th line, 10th line etc.
I hope this question is not something impossibly obvious, but it something I never used to have to think about.
Any help would be great.
Thx.
JD

I just looked through the options and cannot see it, but the current line number is shown on the status bar, and you can hit CTRL-G to goto the line number of your choice.

Thanks for the help, that will make me happier.

...and if the reason you want line numbers is to find errors, you can use the F4 key (F8 key in VS.NET) to go to a file and line in the output window.

Not sure exactly what it is called. But in MSVC 6.0 when you are working with classes and what not the . and -> bring up your little handly window with all class variables and functions and what not... However I noticed that sometimes they stop showing up. I appreciate this little window because it lets me know that name I am typing is correct. Sometimes I might declare a class or what not, and forget exactly how I declared it.. was it MaxVolume or VolumeMax .. so this window is great because it shows it right there.. anyways sometimes it disappears after a while.. usualy after typing a lot (I get to typing fast, and sometimes I hit crazy windows combo keys like the ALT-S Win95 key on the keyboard on accedient).. so once it leaves I have to close out of the IDE and completly log off and log back on to get my popup window back.. is there any easier way?

probably not. the best way to fix the Intellisense problems is to delete the project's .NCB file, but the IDE locks that file while the project is up.

Sometimes it won't show up because there are syntax errors in the code somewhere

Thanks for the replies.. I was hoping there was a key combination I was hitting on accedient. Kinda like when ya get to typing and you try to type CFileDialog and instead get C and a Find window  I know that is a key combo.. but I never can remember it.. so I have to log off/on to fix that one too!
Remember: Some people call them "features" I call them "Annoying". Does anybody actually use windows hot keys?

I'm trying to add context sensitive help to a menu in a dialog app, and have not been very successful. For grins, I went back to basics, and with appwizard, created a dialog based app with "context sensitve help" checked. I added a single drop down menu containing one entry with an an ID of ID_TEST_HELP. Then I edited the .rtf help file, and added a page for this menu item and set the # footnote to ID_TEST_HELP. When I compile the project, I see that the .hm file contains a reference to the ID_TEST_HELP ID, so I'm thinking everything's fine. When I select the menu item, and press F1 it takes me to the main help screen, not the page with the ID of menu item. So my question is, what do you have to do to get context sensitive help working in a dialog based application? I've tried most of the suggestions I've found on the web, and in this site, but nothing hits the mark.
I must be missing something fundamental!
Frustrated...

Unfortunately the default AppWizard generated project doesn't contain the code for context (shift-F1) help, although it does handle topic (F1) help. To support context help you'll also have to modify your dialogs to pass on the correct help ID.
The MS Help95 sample shows you how to do this for WinHelp (supporting HtmlHelp is a different can of worms, unfortunately). Have a look at MSDN Knowledge Base Article Q167698 for details.
Good luck!

I'm not using HTMLHelp, so I'll take a look at MS Help95 (if I can find it).

OK, I have context sensitive help working in my dialog app now, but there is a catch. It only works if I click on a control, and press the F1 key. For some reason, the Help Cursor at the top right of the main dialog (this is a dialog app), doesn't do anything when I click on it!
Any suggestions on where to start looking?

Does the location of a function in my source code (the file I keep it in) effect the speed of execution in the release build?

Maybe.
If a function is in the same file, the compiler may be able to inline it.
If the code is small enough and close enough, you might get lucky and both the caller and callee will be in the same cache line.

Hello there,
In Windows Sockets, is it possible to do have a server socket listen on, say port 2000, and then when a remote machine connects to it, have the resulting connection be established on another port? ...and then have that server socket continue listening on port 2000 for any other connections (they may be from the same remote machine) ?
Thanks!
