I am a newby so forgive me if I have misunderstood your question and this answer is no help at all.
I just wrote an app that uses pins individually on the serial port. and the code looks like this.
HANDLE hCom;
DCB dcb;
//Create the handle for the comport.
hCom = CreateFileA("COM1", GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE,
FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL );
if(hCom == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
CloseHandle(hCom);
MessageBox("There are no ports avaiable. You may neeed to configure a port");
}
// Get the state of the comport and fills the dcb structure.
GetCommState(hCom, &dcb);
//You can use the following to set pins how you like.
dcb.fRtsControl = RTS_CONTROL_DISABLE; // These are outputs can be set either high or low.
dcb.fDtrControl = DTR_CONTROL_DISABLE;
// Sets the port.
SetCommState(hCom, &dcb);
I hope this helps. If not sorry to waiste your time.
I believe you would have to use WriteFile(); to send real data.

Hi all, im trying to do the following:
Print a string of chars to a buffer, and print from the buffer using the sockets send() function. So far i havnt found a way.
The function in question:
<br />
bool TextSender(const char* Text)<br />
{<br />
if(send(dataSock, Text, strlen(Text), 0) == -1)<br />
return false;<br />
else<br />
return true;<br />
}<br />
I was wondering if i printed information to either dataSock or Text it would work, but it does nothing.
Does it matter if i define char Text; at the top ? Because its not doing a thing, any suggestions? Thanx in advance!

So if send() is failing, why are you not calling WSAGetLastError() to figure out why?

Can you give me an example DavidCrow on how to call it properly please? Thanx.

bool TextSender( const char* Text )
{
if (send(dataSock, Text, strlen(Text), 0) == SOCKET_ERROR)
{
DWORD dwError = WSAGetLastError();
return false;
}
else
return true;
}

in hash tables every index in the table refers to a linked list which have slots, each slot have key, data, next, how to insert the data from a text file or html file that we have as every data in each slot is a certain line in the file (text or html), & the key is the no. of that line.

Hi,
I come from a MainFrame Background I haven't gotten into the OO way of thinking
My application which I have created a class for, for Argument sake I'll call MyClass
could use help from 2 other classes (one to check if something is a valid Hex sting and another if it is to convert that string to a Hex number
)
my question is how would I code that
Class MyClass : public Classa : public Classb
{
if so which is the base and which is derived ?
Do I have to worry about the constructers of all 3 ??
and can myClass get at the protected members of classb and CLassa
Thank ahead of time
to all you C++ experts
Which I hope to become one day

In OO programming I think in terms of "is a" and "has a". "is a" means it IS a class while
"has a" refers to something that should be a member of a class.
While your method will work, it does't necessarily make sense.
To make it more clear, I'll give your classes appropriate names:
class ValidHexStringChecker;
class StringToHexConverter;
Class MyClass : public ValidHexStringChecker, public StringToHexConverter
{
};
ValidHexStringChecker and StringToHexConverter are base classes.
MyClass is a derived class, derived from both base classes.
MyClass IS A ValidHexStringChecker and it also IS A StringToHexConverter.
Unless MyClass encapsulates a string, it doesn't make sense for it to be a converter and checker.
It could HAVE ("has a") methods to do those operations but to actually BE an object that does
those doesn't make sense.
Using "is a/has a", I'd ask myself - IS Myclass a ValidHexStringChecker/StringToHexConverter?
If not, then revert to "has a", and add methods to do those operations, something like:
Class MyClass
{
public: //or protected or private
bool CheckValidHexString(...);
bool ConvertStringToHex(...);
};

If the base classes need construction with constructors that take passed parameters, then yes.
If the base classes have default constructors, and that's the only constructor needed, then no.

Yes, because you've specified public access to the base classes (see Controlling Access to
Class Members[^]).
I hope at least a little of that made sense

While OO is neat and useful, don't let it over-complicate things (e.g., not everything has to be a class just because C++ is being used). Unless you can actually think of your "something" as an object (which you probably could), why not just make "is a valid Hex sting" and "convert that string to a Hex" into just plain functions? The former could easily be done with strtol().

I was thinking - atoi - However I really realy want to learn C++
If you have any suggestions please let me know
thankx

Well don't, since it will not work with base-16 numbers.

Hello,
It is probably a very bad question I post but why not trying.
Actually I use a CListCtrl with Edit label mode set to true and I would like to input from within a row a member variable name or an object member name instead of inputting a value.
This variable name or object name will be passed as argument to a function.
Is there a simple solution to do it?
Thnks for your kind help.

You want to be able to type in a variable name in the edit box?
If so, you'll need to write code (maybe in response to LVN_ENDLABELEDIT) to map the entered text
to a variable in your code.

Mark,
Thnks for your help.
yes I want to type in a variable name in the edit box.
could you please be more explicit about mapping the entered text?
Do you mean that I must store the variable name and a string of a same name as the variable in a CMap or std::map and to compare the entered text with the string in the map?
If the string is found I then get the variable related to the string?
|
|
|
|
|
Sure, you could use a map. If there was only a few possibilities you could even use
if/else if/else if you wanted to

I have this UI issue causing my application to hang and I am absolutely clueless what is causing the hang.
From the callstack I find that it waits at ntdll, using SPY++ I find no messages being recieved by the application. It is also not a crash as the frame messages are being recieved but the opened document is frozen.
Any clues about how to approach the problem??

Well it works fine handling mouse move message over a tree. But then when I click on the cross of my MDI to close a document, I have my appln prompt to ask for save changes. It is not able to even display the messagebox, and it is stuck at ntdll... no idea why?
Also strange is that this happens when the tree is expanded and i handle mouse move event... does not happen when I collapse the tree and try to close the document. Any clues??
|
|

|

Can you more explain about your program?
|
|
|
|

It sounds like a deadlock, do you have multiple threads ? Are you using SendMessage() to send a message from one thread to another ?
Check the callstacks of each thread ( assuming you have more than one).
If you are not getting full symbol info in the call stacks, then try setting up a symbol server before you debug, also make sure that your .pdb file is accessible.
regards

I am not sure if this is happening... but I will check. The prob is with mouse move event over a tree, so in tree collapsed state it works fine but with tree expand state, i am not able to close my document...
|
|
|
|
|
I have just found the root cause to this happening is that I am calling SetCapture and not allowing processing of any other message when tree is expanded...
Sorry for the trouble... Is there any function that can detect this and override the same when trying to close the document??
