Re: winsock file transfer - Article Writing Discussion Boards

Mazy,

Actually, that was not it. But I was able to find the correct one by searching for the base class that the article covered (CRectTracker). I couldn't remember the base class until I read that article.

The acticle I was after is http://www.codeproject.com/miscctrl/controltracker.asp

Thanks for the help as it pointed me in the right direction!

Hello,

I'd like to suggest someone to write an article about enumerating all open TCP/UDP ports with mapping them to the owning applications under Windows XP. Unfortunately, I don't have a time for it but I've written an example on C so you could use my code Smile | :)

// portsenumxp.cpp (Windows XP)
//
// This example will show how you can enumerate
// all open TCP and UDP ports and map them to
// the owning application. It uses undocumented
// functions from iphlpapi.dll which were found
// by reversing netstat.exe.

hi,

I have been trying to find a source code that will generated a barcode from a membership ID number and also be able to read this barcode to call up the mmembers details from a database, does any body know were i could find something like this.

thanks for any possible info about this.

There are many different standards for barcodes. Do you want EAN-13? There are also many different ways to generate barcodes. One of the simplest would be to download (or make) a barcode font.

Anyway, here is a place to start:

http://www.makebarcode.com/stdorg/orgs.html

They have some general information to help you find the best solution for you.

There was a project posted here not to long ago. It was a demo of a space invaders like game. But now I can't seem to find it. I was ranked pretty high.

It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

I would like to request an article that explains how to send a file (binary) over a winsock tcp connection. (MFC)

Kuniva
--------------------------------------------
God gave man a penis and a brain but not enough blood to make both of 'em work at the same time.

Kuniva,
Please see the attached sample code of a Winsock client. With a little bit of improvisation and MFC socket programming knowledge you could easily change it to your needs.
/***************************************/

/* This is the sample code for a client that send and receives some data from a server.*/

DownloadFileFromInternet(CString strAddress)
{

char buff[1024];
int s;
struct sockaddr_in a;
struct hostent *h;
WSADATA wsaData;
int SERVER_PORT = 1223;// The server port to which the client will connect.

// This call initializes the Winsock.dll
WSAStartup(0x101, &wsaData);

// Initializing the sockaddr_in datastructer with all zeroes.
memset(&a,0,sizeof(a));

// First assume an Internet dotted form address e.g. 198.168.0.1
a.sin_family = AF_INET;
a.sin_port = htons(SERVER_PORT); // Connect to the server port
a.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1"); // Connect to the localhost. Replace this address with the IP address of the server.

/////////////////////////////////////////////
// You may use descriptive Internet (e.g. www.microsoft.com) instead of the dotted (e.g. 127.0.0.1) one.
h = gethostbyname("www.microsoft.com"); // change this address to the desired server's address.
if (h != NULL)
{
a.sin_addr.s_addr = ((LPIN_ADDR)h->h_addr)->s_addr;
}
else
{
AfxMessageBox("Cannot resolve hostname\n");
WSACleanup();
return FALSE;
}

// create the socket.
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP);
if (s == 0)
{
AfxMessageBox("Cannot establish connection: ");
WSACleanup(); // Winsock.dll cleanup code
return FALSE;
}

// socket succesfully created, now we may connect to the server
if (connect(s, (struct sockaddr *)&a, sizeof(a)))
{
//Can not establish the connection to the server
WSACleanup();
return FALSE;
}

// Connection established with the server. Start receiving data from the server
int k=0;
k = recv(s, buff, 1024, 0);
if (k<0)
{
// An error occurred while trying to receive data
closesocket(s); // close the opened socket.
WSACleanup(); // clean up Winsock.dll
return FALSE;
}
buff[k] = '\0';
// we will NULL terminate the received data from the server.

// We will send "WA-ALIKUMASALAM" to the server.
k=0;
while (k < int(strlen("WA-ALIKUMASALAM")))
{ // keep sending until all the data is sent.
k = send(s,"WA-ALIKUMASALAM",strlen("WA-ALIKUMASALAM"),0);
}

// We are finished. Now its time to close the socket
closesocket(s);
return TRUE;
}

Thought I would try something different in the requests here.

Basically we need to show to a client that a web interface can be pretty damned "spiffy" and very interactive. They think that ALL web interfaces are like Amazon or Yahoo.

Now I could write my own interface with real-time alerts, videos, animations and all the bells and whistles (including a moving graph), but that would be a big waste of money if they turned around and said "no, we are dropping the project."

I know the first response to this will be a Flash interface, but we want to also find a good non-flash, DHTML-using interface.

So does anyone have any links to games like this? Preferably related to stock markets, buying shares etc.

thanks in advance Smile | :)

Probably not exactly what you want but pretty impressive IMO DHTML page is http://www.htmlguru.com/. I don't like the usability of the interface and graphics not the best, but it looks pretty cool for pure DHTML.

It seems like the writers at MicroSoft just love VB, and any example that does anything that comes near to getting my interest is done in VB, when I would love to see it in VC or C#. So, does anyone have a C# or VC++ example of the following :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnadvnet/html/vbnet10142001.asp

I want to make a DLL with a dialog that I can call from my app. Can anyone give me a basic example of how to do this? I would like a a DLL source that just launches a dialog on a call from a basic program. Or can someone give me tips on how to do this? I have found the articles here do not focus on the basics of DLLs. Thanks if you can help.

I am not sure if this is what you wanted, but to create a dll in VC5 all you have to do is this:

Create a new win32 dll project (empty).

Create a .h and .c file like this:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// File quicktest.h
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#ifndef _WINDOWS_
#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
#include <windows.h>
#endif
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#ifdef _cplusplus
extern "C"
{
#endif
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
void WINAPI SomeFunc(PSTR someText);
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#ifdef _cplusplus
}
#endif
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// File quicktest.c
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
void WINAPI SomeFunc(PSTR someText)
{
MessageBox(GetDesktopWindow(), someText, TEXT("Some title"), MB_OK);
}// someText()
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

And while those files are cooking, you take a new file and call it something like: quicktest.def, and put in something like this:
LIBRARY quicktest
DESCRIPTION 'Some functions for blah blah'
EXPORTS
SomeFunc @1

Then you press compile, and voila!, a dll...

"It could have been worse, it could have been ME!"

Many moons ago I took a course in MFC, during the course of which we where shown some very simple MFC code which allowed a user to draw shapes on a view and save them to a file. I need something a little more sophisticated (although I amn't talking about developing a 'paint' application), my intention is to provide a simple canvas for the user to draw on, and write the results to a bitmap file. Anyone know any simple examples of this type of thing ?

Try using Visual Basic. It takes about 10 lines of code to make an app like you are suggesting...

How so? It is weird but I must have spent at most 1hour playing with VB.NET the whole time I have had .NET. The rest of the time I have been going oooo and aaaaah over C# or ASP.NET (using C# as the language.)

I am not seeking a higher position in peoples eyes by using C# rather than VB.NET. It is just that C# has really grabbed my interest. It works a lot more like I think than even VB used to.

There is an electronic item called TiVo:

- It is the most popular Digital Video Recorder (DVRs). It is like VCRs, but with a hard disk and without the hassles of videotapes.
- TiVo automatically finds and digitally records your family's favorite shows so you'll never "forget" to schedule a recording again.
- With TiVo you can watch your favorite shows on your own time. At last, TV fits into your busy life, not the other way around.

I want to write a program that do the same things like TiVo but I will use my computer to do it. If you find this idea sound fantastic, please show me where to start.

Thanks in advance,

There are a number of similiar projects already under way, you should be able to find details of them on sourceforge.net. Most are Linux Open source projects but a Windows version is also likely.

You'll need to decide on the Video Capture hardware and see what software support it gives you. In theory you use the hardware to capture an MPEG file and save it to the hard-disk. The difficulty begins when you want to add the intelligent recording as you'll need access to the TV listings in a digital form.
