IActiveScript return value from event function ?

Hi,

I use IActiveScript (JScript) in my application (MFC ActiveX VC2003), i try to retrieve argument modified or "return value" from java function, but it don't work...

The java function is call the argument is good, but the variable modification in java do not appear in c++ code when return ?

Thanks,

Arnaud,

<code>
// Call initialize function (call javascript function).
long Result = m_pScript -> FireOnInitialize ();

// Idl declaration.
[id(1), helpstring("method FireOnInitialize")]
void OnInitialize ([out] long * pResult );

// Event map from cpp.
BEGIN_EVENT_MAP(CTestCtrl::CTestScript, CScript)
EVENT_CUSTOM("OnInitialize", FireOnInitialize, VTS_PI4)
END_EVENT_MAP()

// Function from h.
LONG FireOnInitialize ()
{
LONG Result = 5;

// Call event 1.
FireEvent ( 1L, EVENT_PARAM(VTS_PI4), &Result );

return Result;
};

// Function from js.
function Script::OnInitialize ( value )
{
Display ( "OnInitialize" )

if ( value == 5 )
{
Display ( "5" );
}
else
{
Display ( "?" );
}

value = 3;

// Every things ok.
return 2;
}
</code>

   I am not sure if you are seeing a limitation of Connection Points themselves in the IActiveScript scripting implementation, or a limitation of the JavaScript script engine itself. You can try to see if the same thing happens with a VBAScript/VBA event-recipient to be sure...

   But in general connection points are not a reliable way to return information from an event recipient, especially when multiple event receivers are involved, or if a poor implementation is forwarding the event to something else, because it might not be forwarding the return value correctly.

   Peace!

Is it possible to use the handle returned by GetClusterResourceKey and and pass it to RegQueryValueEx to read the data values ?

i have done but RegQueryValueEx returns ans error code of 6, that is for INVALID HANDLE...

Otherwise please tell me how to read the data values from the handle returned GetClusterResourceKey ?

Look up the documentation for that function, you will find the related ones like ClusterRegQueryValue(...).

Locking a dialog in place

Hi again,

I have a question regarding a locking a dialog in place. I have a dialog box that is maximised to occupy thw whole screen. I wish to make it so that the operator cannot minimise it, or move it. Effectively it will become the desktop - is there a way to do this? Other applications can be opend over it, but when they are closed, or minimised, the desktop will always revert back to the main app. Any suggestions - Thanks for looking

In the resource editor, uncheck the buttons support minimize and maximize. Then use ShowWindow (WS_MAXIMIZED) by creating the dialog, or take the dimensions of the desktop and use SetWindowPos () to this sizes.

Greetings.

Reading PDB/EXE files

Hello,

How can I find out value of a constant (was decalerd as #define in the h file of the exe), if I only have the pdb and the exe file ?

I have found the ascii name of the constant in the pdb file, but couldn't figure out where the value resides.

Thanks,
Eyal

I do not think that you can (at least not with the C/C++ implementations I am familiar with)...

When you use #define, the pre-processor replaces the defined identifier with its value. So, if you have the following:

// In The .H File...
#define   <code>THE_VALUE   42</code>
 
// In The .CPP File...
for( int iValue = 0; iValue < <code>THE_VALUE</code>; iValue++ )
{
    // Loop Body...
}

Then you cannot scan the EXE file for THE_VALUE because the pre-processor will replace it with the constant value 42, so after the pre-processing phase, the C file actually looks more like this:

for( int iValue = 0; iValue < <big><code>42</code></big>; iValue++ )
{
    // Loop Body...
}

Peace!

OK,
So the pdb only conatins the name of the define and not the value itself ?

Re: Reading PDB/EXE files

   I am not certain about the PDB, but at first blush I would not expect it to contain #defined values.

   I might expect to see values that were set up using something like const int THE_VALUE=42 because they are handled by the C++ compiler (not the pre-processor), however. I could be wrong on both counts...

   Peace!

In a dialog, you may find WM_NEXTDLGCTL works better than SetFocus().

Help required on Kernel memory reading

SelvaKr18-Jun-07 0:09

Hi all,
I need to read a particular bit on kernel memory which will be owned by a device driver.
I am using ZwOpenSection and ZwMapViewOfSection API's to map the particular page on the kernel memory. But it returns only 'FF' in all bytes. But the same stuff works with pages other than that are device driver oriented.

In a nutshell,
I am just getting a device driver load address and trying to read the same address from the physical memory. But it simple shows 'FF' in all the bytes.

Can you pls share if you have any experiances in this regard.
Thanks in advance. Smile | :)

1.) A valid kernel mode virtual address is always above 0x8000000
2.) Check that ZwMapViewOfSection call is not returning error STATUS_CONFLICTING_ADDRESSES.
3.) See if this helps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/189327[^]

Thanks a lot Randor.
I have already referred the link and i am proceeding in the same way.
Actually my physical memory reading works for some other address but not to the addresses that are device driver oriented.
I have just calculated the cdrom.sys driver's load address and tried to read the same from the kernel memory. But it simple shows "FF" in all bytes Frown | :-(

Any thoughts....

Hi,

Is there a way to inject parameters (argc and argv) to my application
using the visual studio , and not from the command line?
(I'm using visual studio c++ 2005).

Thanks,

I guess you want to pass command line using VS2005 then goto

Project properties dialog->Configuration properties->Debugging->Command arguments

Enter command line here. Don't worry about argc.

Please post the rest of your code, specially how you try to insert the row.

propably you need also to check the characters of the string before putting it into the DB.
You need to replace all \ with \\ and so on

The easiest way is to store the SQL-Statement into a textfile. Then you copy the statement into
a SQL-Tool, there you get all Error-Information do you need to find the error
( IF the error comes from a SQL-Syntax)

The easiest approach is to use pre-recorded phonems. This means:

1. Read the text to be spoken.
2. Analyse and split the text into phonems.
3. Determine the correct pronounciation, emphasis and state for each phonem.
4. Mix the phonems into a single sound stream in the correct order and with the correct spacing/silences.
5. Play the sound file.

You might be able to cover some variations by applying audio filters to prerecorded sound-files (silencing, changes in pitch and tempo, etc), so the number of recordings necessary might be reduced to a few thousand.

Now, apart from the Analysis, the most time-consuming part is the recording and splitting of the pre-recorded phonems. You might want to hire a sound-recording studio and a professional speaker for this purpose.

If you are planning to not use pre-recorded phonems, but to generate the speech "on the fly": good luck, until you are a linguist and can describe language professionally, plus reproduce the certain sounds with algorithms. I have no advice for that.

Cheers,
Sebastian

Sir,
Is there any way else of recordings?
by recording u mean that in Microsoft TalkIt Text-2-Speech application Microsoft had recorded each and every word;which i write to be spoken.whether the word is "My own Name","any word of my own language".It speak each every thing.Howevere Microsoft company is not aware of that word.So how they recorded that word.
Sir,
Hope U'll uderstant what I want to say.In the same fasion I want to build my project.Its writing is only different usiny unicode.
So if u have any idea behind that, then Please tell me Please.
ThanX
