You can make use of the ADO wrapper classes from Carlos Antonelli here at codeproject in the Database section. The usage is same as the MFC DAO classes. Great work.

Why threads are declared as Static when used from Class?...?
vivek
|
|
|
|
|
because you might be careful to the this pointer implicitely added to the header of a member function...
it is the same as CallBack functions

Functions used to be created as threads are defined as "static" when used with a C++ Class because there is an implied parameter that doesn't show up in code, the THIS pointer.
To avoid this confusion and make it simple "static" class members only operate on static data and not per-instance data and as such the "this" pointer is not passed in. So, it's easy to define the function as static and use it in CreateThread without worries. Of course they usually pass the object instance as the first parameter anyway.
class x
{
public:
static DWORD WINAPI MyThread(PVOID lParam)
{
x *pX = (x *)lParam;
}
}
...
x pX = new x;
CreateThread(...., x::MyThread, pX);
As you see in the above example the thread can be created and the system will pass in the "this" pointer and we will manually re-use it.
Another way to do this in the C++ is to simply define a class function to be standard call, NOT FAST CALL, and take "void" parameters.
class x
{
public:
DWORD WINAPI MyThread(void);
};
...
x *pX = new x;
CreateThread(..., x::MyThread, pX);
Why void parameters?
Because the system will now pass in the "this" pointer for you and in C++ the language hides this detail anyway.
Why stdcall and not fastcall?
STDCALL should pass the "this" pointer on the stack while fastcall passes the this pointer in ECX register, which the system has no idea about.

You will have to link to the lib in project-> properties in order to build it so that your client application can locate all the entry points to the DLL.
Can you get acess to the lib?

I've upgraded a series of Doc/View MFC VC++ 6 projects in a worspace to VC++ 7.1
The compile fine and start up fine showing the views etc, but when I try to bring up any dialogs including a standard MessageBox I get a crash in Debug build inside WinCore.cpp. The comments in code seems to suggesst that an ASSERT has happened while handling an ASSERT. Can't spot anything though in the call stack to suggest why it would happen.
Anyone seen anything like this on a project upgrade?

My application just hangs when run in Debug within Visual Studio 7.1.
I have tried to find the change that caused this problem but failed so far. I think I may have suffered a crash during an editing session - but not sure.
The Task Manager reports cpu ~ 99% for devenv.exe and when I End of Process I get the message:-
'The application failed to initialse properly ...'
Now the application seems to run OK when you double click the myProgram.exe icon.
But seem to have lost the ability to run and debug my program within the Visual Studio IDE.
Has anyone come across this problem before?
Other programs seem to be able to be run and debuged OK, its just this one. I have done a clean rebuilt - help.

I'm trying to gain access to a network disk using WNetConnectionDialog (first time that I've used it !) but cannot see how to retrieve the values selected by the user. Any help appreciated !

There won't be any. From MSDN:
If the user clicks OK in the dialog box, the requested network connection will have been made when the WNetConnectionDialog() function returns.

Is there some way to retrieve this info from the system itself then ?

Try:
CONNECTDLGSTRUCT cds = {0};
NETRESOURCE nr = {0};
nr.dwType = RESOURCETYPE_DISK;
cds.cbStructure = sizeof(cds);
cds.hwndOwner = GetSafeHwnd();
cds.lpConnRes = &nr;
WNetConnectionDialog1(&cds);
TRACE(_T("dwDevNum = %lu\n"), cds.dwDevNum);

I want to show CToolTipCtrl object when user enters invalid character. Actually i want to use that class when i want. But i cant find a solution. Is there anyway to override that functionality.
I use several methods, but cant do what i want.
I use ShowWindow like funtctions, but they just show and disappear. They dont even there for a few miliseconds
Being mortal is what makes impossible possible.

i)declare CToolTipCtrl in ur class
like CToolTipCtrl m_ToolTipCtrl ;
ii) add the following code in constructor
TOOLINFO ti;
DWORD dwStyle = TTS_BALLOON;
m_ToolTipCtrl .Create(this, dwStyle);
m_ToolTipCtrl .FillInToolInfo(ti, this, 0);
ti.uFlags |= (TTF_TRACK |TTF_ABSOLUTE );
ti.lpszText = (LPTSTR)_T("Enter Valid Phone number");
m_ToolTipCtrl .SendMessage (TTM_ADDTOOL, 0,reinterpret_cast<lparam> (&ti));
iii) add the following code, where u want to show the tooltip
LPTSTR lpszMessage = _T("Enter Tooltip text here");
m_ToolTipCtrl.Activate(TRUE) ;
CToolInfo ti;
m_ToolTipCtrl.GetToolInfo(ti, this, 0);
ti.lpszText = lpszMessage;
m_ToolTipCtrl .SetToolInfo(&ti);
m_ToolTipCtrl .SendMessage (TTM_TRACKPOSITION, 0, MAKELPARAM(rect.right - 20, rect.CenterPoint().y));
m_ToolTipCtrl .SendMessage (TTM_TRACKACTIVATE, TRUE,reinterpret_cast<lparam>(&ti));
this code i got from some post
