Re: How do i pass a function to a function that need a DWORD?

12-Sep-02 9:36

You need to cast...

acmStreamOpen(phas, had, pwfxSrc, pwfxDst, pwfltr, (DWORD_PTR)Callback, dwInstance, fdwOpen)

... where 'Callback' is name of your callback function.

When i do that the compiler says:
Context does not allow for disambiguation of overloaded function

and in the tast list:
d:\ConvertAudio\MP3ORGANIZER\ConvertAudio\main.cpp(222): error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'overloaded-function' to 'DWORD_PTR'

You have more than one function with name you're passing to acmStreamOpen. Give the callback unique name.

If you compile this on a WIN32 system, DWORD_PTR is an unsigned long.
(and it's __int64 if you compile using WIN64, which is 8-byte).

Thanks, I am able to get the index.
I have 1 more Qs.
I have written an message hanler for the list control for the message LVN_ENDLABELEDIT.
After i edit the selected field , I want to put the newly typed data in it. So, i tried to use the listctrl.GetNextItem();
listctrl.GetItemText(); --- But this fucntion has the original text & not the new text
and listctrl.SetItemText().

Tomasz Sowinski12-Sep-02 9:23

All you need to set the item text in LVN_ENDLABELEDIT handler is to return TRUE. If you're using MFC, then you need to set *pResult to TRUE.

Unhandled exception when writing to allocated memory.

THANKS. I GOT IT.

12-Sep-02 8:26

BYTE *sSourceBuffer;
DWORD dwSourceBufferSize = 176400;

sSourceBuffer = (BYTE *)LocalAlloc(LMEM_MOVEABLE | LMEM_ZEROINIT, dwSourceBufferSize);
memset(sSourceBuffer, 0, dwSourceBufferSize);

When i get to the memset line i get an unhandled exception message;
Unhandled exception at 0x00414085 in MP3.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x00911000.
And i jumps to some asm code:

; Set dword-sized blocks
        mov     ecx,edx         ; move original count to ecx
        and     edx,3           ; prepare in edx byte count (for tail loop)
        shr     ecx,2           ; adjust ecx to be dword count
        jz      tail            ; jump if it was less then 4 bytes

        rep     stosd   <----- CURSOR IS HERE

Here's the values of the different variables:

ecx = 43079
edx = 0
tail = 0x0041408b tail

(From the command window)

Anyone know what could be wrong?

Thanks in advance.

The function returns a valid handle to a piece of memory and not NULL, so it should have succeeded, BUT, i've found out that the when i allocate two pieces of memory after each other (which is what i do in my program) the second allocation is only 8 bytes away from the first one.

sSourceBuffer = (BYTE *)LocalAlloc(LMEM_MOVEABLE | LMEM_ZEROINIT, dwSourceBufferSize);
sDestBuffer = (BYTE *)LocalAlloc(LMEM_MOVEABLE | LMEM_ZEROINIT, dwDestBufferSize);

The first one gets the address 0x0091000c and the seconds gets 0x00910014. What could be wrong here?

BTW, at runetime the dwDestBufferSize is 73599, and the dwSourceBufferSize is 176400.

Thanks.

LocalAlloc() does not return a pointer, it returns a handle, aka HLOCAL. Your memset fails because the address you're sending is not really an address at all. In order to translate that HLOCAL into a valid pointer to physical memory, call LocalLock(). LocalLock will return an actual pointer to physical memory which you can then use. BTW, you wouldn't have to call memset there and initialize the buffer to zero, since you're specifying LMEM_ZEROINIT in the call to LocalAlloc()... it's redundant Smile | :)

DWORD dwBufferSize = 176400;
HLOCAL hBuffer = NULL;
LPVOID lpBuffer = NULL;

__try
{
   hBuffer = LocalAlloc( LMEM_MOVEABLE | LMEM_ZEROINIT, dwBufferSize );
   if( hBuffer )
   {
      lpBuffer = LocalLock( hBuffer );

      if( lpBuffer )
      {
          // Do some stuff with the pointer
      }
   }
}
__finally
{
   if( hBuffer )
   {
      LocalUnlock( hBuffer );
      LocalFree( hBuffer );
   }
}

By specifying LMEM_MOVEABLE, LocalAlloc is not returning a pointer to memory, but a handle. Either use LMEM_FIXED instead, or use LocalLock to convert the handle to an actual pointer.

I developed a dialer which creates an entry in DUN but the problem is tht it can't disable multilink programatically. It doesnt work with my client as it doesnt connect to their ISP as long as multilink is enabled. It works on WinXP because it can disable multilink.

I dont want to disable it globally through registry. ANybody has any thought plz share it with me if it is gonna be helpful to me.

ok I have read a few post now so I know that you have to handle the WM_KICKIDLE message to be able manipulate menus in a dialog nased app. What I now need to know is do I update the menu in the menus UPDATE_COMMAND_UI or do I have to create a CMenu object and pull and manipulate the menu in a user function? If someone could give me ALL the code snipits they used or walk my dumb @$$ through this I would apreciate it.

OK I soent some time looking through the code and still no. I now understand why just UPDATE_COMMAND_UI fails, it doesn't get a pointer to the dialog. Stupid MFC. SO I need to pass OnUpdateCmdUI the pointer to my dialog. But, sorry, I am new and this doesn't give me everything I need. How do I set up my app to call OnUpdateCmdUI() It gives me a not found error. I cannot find it in the Class wiz. I probably need to create it in the message map myself, but I wanted to ask.

Still a Dumb @$$
