As a general rule you can only touch GUI objects from the thread that created them. Use BeginInvoke() method on the form to transfer the call to the GUI thread and update the listbox from there. Once in the GUI thread check for IsDisposed before updating the listbox as its possible for the form to be destroyed beteen you calling BeginInvoke and the actual function being called by the GUI thread

System.IO.Path.IsPathRooted() does not behave as I would expect

What is wrong with this ? ? ?

A garbage value is the answer but the code seems to be perfectly alright.

# include <iostream.h>
# include <conio.h>

void input_one(char *);

void main()
{
clrscr();
char string[20];

input_one(string);
cout<<"\n\n\n the string given is -> "<<string;
}

void="" input_one(char="" *solo)
{
="" char="" temp[20];
="" cout<<"\n="" \n="" enter="" the="" string="" -=""> ";
cin>>temp;
solo=temp;
}

You get garbage because instead of copying char temp[20] content to the char string[20], you set adress for char *solo to the first temp's array element.

Doing this: solo=temp; is exacly the same as: solo=&temp[0];

Remember: Array's name is always it's beginning adress.

And you should ask about it on Visual c++ forum.

Modify this to,

void input_one(char *);

void main()
{
clrscr();
char string[20] = {0};

input_one(string);
cout<<"\n\n\n the string given is -> "<<string; 
}

void input_one(char *solo)
{
char temp[20] = {0};
cout<<"\n \n Enter the string -> ";
cin>>temp;
strcpy_s(solo,20,temp);
}

p.s. Use VC++ forum for such question , not involving CLI is any form.

Other way is ,

void input_one(char *);

void main()
{
clrscr();
char string[20];

input_one(string);
cout<<"\n\n\n the string given is -> "<<string; 
}

void input_one(char *solo)
{
cout<<"\n \n Enter the string -> ";
cin>>solo;
}

Whats the easiest way to convert from System::String to std::string?

With value types it easy.

double a = 0.1;
System::Double b = a
double c = *reinterpret_cast<double^>(b);

For the time being I've just been using CStrings.....

System::String^ managed_string = "Hello World";
CString str = managed_string;
std::string std_string = str;

Not exactly slick though!!!

Just trying to get an idea of what it the most efficient way, and then I'll probably just create a macro for it.

I need help about multithreading in TCPListener ...

Nonreturn1-Mar-07 16:49

1-Mar-07 16:49

In a TCPListener program I've coded, I used the sample codes about TCPListener I found in MSDN Library. But, when I execute this program, the interface doesn't give any response to other events such as clicking buttons, since the continuous loop prevents the other codes to be run. I know that I must do multithreading, but I don't know how to do. . Meanwhile, I also tried to use "BackgroundWorker" component, but it caused the data transfer to fail. Here's sample code, what can I do?

private:
void ServerActivate()
{
try
{
Int32 port = 10000;
IPAddress^ localAddr = IPAddress::Parse(myipBox->Text);
TcpListener^ server = gcnew TcpListener(localAddr,port);
server->Start();
array<byte>^bytes = gcnew array<byte>(256);
String^ data = nullptr;

// Enter the listening loop.
while (true)
{
MessageBox::Show("Ready To Receive!");
TcpClient^ client = server->AcceptTcpClient();
NetworkStream^ stream = client->GetStream();
Int32 i;

while ( i = stream->Read( bytes, 0, bytes->Length ) )
{
data = System::Text::Encoding::ASCII->GetString( bytes, 0, i );
outputBox->Items->Add(data);
data = data->ToUpper();
array<byte>^msg = System::Text::Encoding::ASCII->GetBytes(data);
stream->Write( msg, 0, msg->Length );
}
client->Close();
}
}
catch (SocketException^ e)
{
MessageBox::Show("Socket Exception Occured!");
ShowLoginBox();
}
}

I suggest you find a multi-threading tutorial and deal with learning about multi-threading without any socket aspects. Once you understand what is involved in working with mulitple threads then dealing with the socket aspects should be easier.

I'm currently using 'fgets' to read a file like the sample below, and need to do some processing on it.....My first question is, is there a way for me to read the X,Y & Z data and store them into a multi-dimensional array? Secondly, the number of entries for the X,Y & Z data can vary from one file to another, so if an array is to be used, it has to be able to be sized dynamically.

using C++, Visual Studio 6.0
