Thanks, but I can't seem to find the Visual Studio 6 installation.

Can I download it from the web? If so, where?
Does it need to be bought?

I'm not sure if this is causing the exception - but you're supplying a pointer to a wide string as a parameter for the %s format item, which expects a pointer to a normal string.

You have a typo:

pInfo->UserName ,L"myUser1";

It should be:

pInfo->UserName = L"myUser1";

Also, to print a WSTRING using the ANSI printf, use %ls. That is the letter L, not the number one.

I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

RFC - Duplicate file finder features

I made a very nice duplicate file finding utility for myself a few months ago.

Now I just wanna share it with you guys (altough I am not very sure who would ever require such a tool ! Anyone ?)

However, I just want to add some more features to the basic framework.

The basic engine just creates a hash table of filenames which are kind of open chained using linked list of filenames which have the same MD5/SHA/etc digest (that is, are binary equal)

It currently finds out any duplicate file(s) in/on your directory/drive and deletes all but the file with the most recent timestamp.

That's all I wanted, but I understand that it's the least somebody who seriously wants to use such tool would want !

So please, let me know who might want it, and what feature(s) should I add to it....

Given enough takers, I might write up a nice article to go along with the source code.

In the meanwhile, keep the feature requests rolling in...

My code.
HICON hi = LoadIcon(_Module.GetModuleInstance(), MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICON1));
if (hi)
{
PICTDESC pd;
pd.cbSizeofstruct = sizeof(pd);
pd.picType = PICTYPE_ICON;
pd.icon.hicon = hi;
IPictureDispPtr spIPicture;
hr = OleCreatePictureIndirect(&pd, IID_IPictureDisp, FALSE, (void **)&spIPicture);
hr = spCmdButton->put_Picture(spIPicture);
}

Can anybody help me with it?

Creating Modeless Dialog Box Failed

devom14-Feb-05 22:21

14-Feb-05 22:21

As told in the article

CComObject<cmaindlg> dlgMain;
dlgMain.AddRef();
if ( dlgMain.Create(NULL) == NULL )
{
ATLTRACE(_T("Main dialog creation failed!\n"));
//return 0;
}

dlgMain.ShowWindow(SW_SHOWDEFAULT);
}
not working.
Now the program is compiling without any errors.But when i am clicking button then only Dialog Box is visible without ActiveX Control and that too with illegal operation, asks to close and send Error Report.
I know that the problem is somewhere with Create function .i.e. Dialog box is not creating.I also removed ActiveX control from Dialog Box ,then too the problem continues.It means that Dialog Box is not being Created.
But i don't know how and what to do.I tried as
For that i called AtlAxWinInit(); in CMainDlg::OnInitDialog();
LRESULT OnInitDialog(UINT uMsg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, BOOL& bHandled)
{
AtlAxWinInit();// Added this

CAxWindow wndIE = GetDlgItem(IDC_IE);
CComPtr<iwebbrowser2> pWB2;
HRESULT hr;
hr = wndIE.QueryControl ( &pWB2 );

if ( pWB2 )
{
CComVariant v; // empty variant

pWB2->Navigate ( CComBSTR("http://www.codeproject.com/"),
&v, &v, &v, &v );
}

but same problem continues.Any one Plz help me

Hi!

I have some compiling problems with my shell projects. I can not compile them since I keep getting the error that there is no precompiled .pch-file...

What am I doing wrong? I am a bloody beginner.. (this is my first project)

pls help me. I know it's a very stupid question, but I can seem to solve the problem.

Thx in advance

Either

add a precompiled header - add stdafx.h and stdafx.cpp to your project and compile stdafx.cpp with the option /Ycstdafx.h

OR

remove mention of the option /Yu (you'll possibly see it as /Yustdafx.h) from the compilation options of your project

HTH!!!

What overloaded member function called in if(iterator)

DevendraC8-Feb-05 0:41

DevendraC

8-Feb-05 0:41

Hi,
Can anyone tell me which overloaded function is called, below in Line 2:
vector<int>::iterator it = nArray.begin(); // Line 1
if(it) //What overloaded function called here // Line 2
..................

As I know in this case overloaded (operator void *) function is called,
But I d'nt find any such overloaded function in STL iterator class.

Regards
Devendra Chandola

As you point out, there's no official procedure in the STL specification to test an iterator in such a way. What's happening is that, for vector alone, and for your particular compiler, vector::iterator happens to be an actual pointer, so the expression makes sense --it tests whether the pointer is non-null, which makes little sense in the given context. This is non-portable and you are not guaranteed that the test yield any significative result. Most likely what's intended is the following:

if(it!=nArray.end()){
  ...
}

Hope this helps,

There is no general answer to your question.

Actually, you should not even ask the question because the "if (iterator)" should not generally compile. However, in your case, the magic of typedef's probably makes it valid and equivalent to "if (pointer)".

Also, the "suggestion" to do "if ( iterator == container.end() )" is NOT a suggestion: it is the only valid way to check for iterator validity.

my 2 cents...

Set a breakpoint on that if statement, and step into the line (F11) and you'll see.

using cout in template argument...

Malcolm Smart7-Feb-05 22:23

7-Feb-05 22:23

Hi
I want to be able to dump a map out to any stream, ie cout, fstream, or stream into another class (the other class has the << overloaded) but I can't even pass cout into the template. I've cut the code back to the following....

typedef map<string , string> myMAP;

class MyClass
{
private:
	myMAP somedata;
public:
	void LoadSomeData(T &t) {//load map here};
	template <typename T>
	void DumpSomeData(T &t);
};


template <typename T>
void MyClass::DumpSomeData(T &t)
{
	myMAP::const_iterator iter(somedata.begin());

	while (iter != somedata.end())
		{
		t << "#" << iter->first << "#" << iter->second << endl;
		iter++;
		}
}

and to call it I use...

MyClass LoadAndDump;
LoadAndDump.LoadSomeData();
LoadAndDump.DumpSomeData(cout); <-- compiler errors....
//also tried
//LoadAndDump.DumpSomeData<std::basic_ostream<char,struct std::char_traits<char> > >(&cout);

It won't compile and gives

error C2893: Failed to specialize function template 'void __thiscall MyClass::DumpSomeData(T &)'<br />
        With the following template arguments:<br />
        'class std::basic_ostream<char,struct std::char_traits<char> > *'

Any help much appreciated.

Regards

Angel
