What other header files are you including?

Those errors indicate windows.h is not included.

Actually, windows.h is already included in the .cpp file...

These are the other header files I've got:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "Form1.h"
#include tchar.h
#include vector
#include ctime
#include math.h
#include fstream
#include string
#include iostream
#include sstream
using std::dec;
using std::hex;
#include iomanip 
using std::setprecision; 
using std::setbase;
#include cstdlib
using std::atof;
#include windows.h
#pragma comment(lib, "user32.lib")
#include stdio.h
#include cstdio
#include strsafe.h
using namespace Ex22_01;

(Note: I had to remove < and > from the directives as otherwise it would not show up in this message)

Hi,

it may come as a surprise, but the order of the includes matters too.
i.e. if tchar.h relies on windows.h, then windows.h must precede tchar.h;
normally if you suddenly need another include, you put it at the end of the list.

BTW: the behavior of message editing regarding < and > depends on the checked state of "Ignore HTML tags in this message" checkbox.

Luc, you are absolutely right! I've changed the order of the include directives and it works like a breeze.
Thank you so much for this, I admit I would have never thought about it.

Re: Creating Registry Key Values in C++/CLI environment

13-Dec-08 7:56

Hi again Luc, I was wondering if you had any hint on how to solve this problem which is somehow linked to the previous one. I need to save the value obtained with the previous code (which is a DWORD: DesiredValue) in a registry key and this was the syntax I was using (successfully) in console environment.

DWORD DesiredValue;

// Creates Desired Registry Key 
	HKEY Xtmpkey;
	DWORD dwDisp = 0;
	LPDWORD xlpdwDisposition = &dwDisp;
	DWORD dwVal = DesiredValue; 
	// Desired Path for the Registry Key 
	RegCreateKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, L"SOFTWARE\\MyPath", 0L,NULL, REG_OPTION_NON_VOLATILE, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, NULL, &Xtmpkey,xlpdwDisposition);

// Creates Desired Value
RegSetValueEx (Xtmpkey, L"Desired_Value_Name", 0L, REG_DWORD,(CONST BYTE*) &dwVal, sizeof(DWORD));

Now that I am porting the software into C++/CLI environment it returns the following errors:

Error 1 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "extern "C" long __stdcall RegCreateKeyExW(struct HKEY__ *,wchar_t const *,unsigned long,wchar_t *,unsigned long,unsigned long,struct _SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES * const,struct HKEY__ * *,unsigned long *)" (?RegCreateKeyExW@@$$J236YGJPAUHKEY__@@PB_WKPA_WKKQAU_SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES@@PAPAU1@PAK@Z)

Error 2 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "extern "C" long __stdcall RegSetValueExW(struct HKEY__ *,wchar_t const *,unsigned long,unsigned long,unsigned char const *,unsigned long)" (?RegSetValueExW@@$$J224YGJPAUHKEY__@@PB_WKKPBEK@Z)

Error 3 fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals

What am I doing wrong?

I thank you in advance.

Hi,

there are two ways to solve this:

1.
most registry operations are supported in .NET by the Registry class
things not supported include special key types (not REG_SZ)

2.
when the Registry class does not offer what you need, you have to call the native functions (such as RegCreateKeyEx).

I don't know the details for C++, but you somehow must tell it where the library functions can be found,
and how they should be called.

This article[^] probably contains all you need and more.

FYI: in C# there is only one way to access native code, that is thru P/Invoke.

Remark: you would better have started a new thread for a question that hardly is connected to an old topic... that would have improved your chances for someone else to pick it up.

As Luc mentioned, the order of the #includes can be a factor.

Another recent post asked about tchar.h and I tested it - it can be
used all by itself and it pulls in any additional header files it needs,
so I wouldn't think that's an issue here..

In your stdafx.h file, you may be missing the Windows versioning macros.
The macros have changed a bit in recent SDK versions, but if you create a dummy
project (MFC or Win32) you can look at the stdafx.h file and see the defaults.
For example, here's a stdafx.h file from one of my projects, using the latest SDK
on VS 2008:

// stdafx.h : include file for standard system include files,
// or project specific include files that are used frequently,
// but are changed infrequently

#pragma once


#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN

#include "<code>targetver.h</code>"

#include <stdio.h>
#include <tchar.h>

#ifndef VC_EXTRALEAN
#define VC_EXTRALEAN
#endif

// Windows Header Files:
#include <windows.h>

// <code>targetver.h</code>


#pragma once


#ifndef NTDDI_VERSION
#define NTDDI_VERSION NTDDI_WINXPSP2
#endif


#ifndef WINVER
#define WINVER _WIN32_WINNT_WINXP
#endif

#ifndef _WIN32_WINNT
#define _WIN32_WINNT _WIN32_WINNT_WINXP
#endif

#ifndef _WIN32_WINDOWS
#define _WIN32_WINDOWS 0x0410
#endif

#ifndef _WIN32_IE
#define _WIN32_IE 0x0600
#endif

Hi Mark, thanks for this detailed suggestion. Luc's advice however solved the problem easily and for the time being I'll stick with it. I'll definitely look into your solution if a similar problem happens in the future. Cheers Big Grin | :-D

Unmanged library printing to debug and then killing application

Use #include "atlstr.h" or #include "afx.h" header file.

I am using an unmanaged library made by Valve in a wrapper.

When this line of code executes:

if ( fileSystem->Init() != INIT_OK ) throw gcnew Exception(fileSystemDllName + " IFileSystem::Init failed.");

No exception is thrown. Instead the function prints this message to the debug output:

SteamStartup() failed: SteamStartup(0xf,0x06C9EAA0) failed with error 1: failed to take master pipe connection lock

Immediately after, the main thread exits. I KNOW why this is happening and I know how to fix it. That is not my question. What I need to know is how I can get my wrapper DLL to trap debug output, and at least put up a message box repeating the error, such as the one above.

I made a new class - .h and .cpp combined for brevity:

ref class SteamDebugListener : public System::Diagnostics::TraceListener
{
public:
    SteamDebugListener(void)
    {
    }

    virtual void Write(String^ Message) override
    {
        if (message-&gt;Contains("Steam") &amp;&amp; message-&gt;Contains("error"))
        {
            MessageBox::Show(message-&gt;Trim());
        }
    }

    virtual void WriteLine(String^ Message) override
    {
        if (message-&gt;Contains("Steam") &amp;&amp; message-&gt;Contains("error"))
        {
            MessageBox::Show(message-&gt;Trim());
        }
    }
};

And added this:

SteamDebugListener^ errorCatch = gcnew SteamDebugListener();
System::Diagnostics::Debug::Listeners->Add(errorCatch);
System::Diagnostics::Trace::Listeners->Add(errorCatch);

before the failing call, and set a breakpoint in the Write function, but it is not being called. What is the correct way to do all this?

Fatal error C1902

Hello guys,

I've a big problem with VC++2008. Till now it was working fine, than I created a new project tried to compile it and I get the error message:
fatal error c1902: error in program database manager. check installation.

I didn't change anything within my IDE I just tried to compile a project.
I already tried to reinstall the IDE but this didn't help, I still get this error.
I'll try de-installing VC++2008 and deleting all components, maybe than a reinstallation will work.
At the same time I got this problem with my VC++2005. Same error but I tried to recompile an old project when it occured.
However, my VS2003.NET is still working fine. But I need VC++2008 for a special project.

Does anyone have an idea about this?

Thanks and best wishes,
Manfred

According to MS and several forums you have to place a file called mspdb80.dll in \WINDOWS\system32\ if this error occurs. I already added this file becuase I needed it in another project. However, there was another version of this file too called mspdb60.dll. I deleted the 80-version and my IDE workes again. Smile | :)

UltraGrid is not member of Infragistics::Win

And when I Write namespace Infragistics::Win::UltraWinGrid, I have the same error on this line.

Destroying controls created by CWinFormControl

I'm using CWinFormControl to create instances of .Net UserControls.

CWinFormsControl<myproject::mycontrol xmlns:myproject="#unknown"> m_control;
m_control.CreateManagedControl( WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE, rect, this, IDC_HOSTCONTROL );

This works fine. The problem occurs when I try to destroy the control. I need a deterministic call to the 'MyControl' finalizer, so I wrote the following:

m_control.DestroyWindow();
System::GC::Collect();

This code does not cause the Finalize\Dispose code to be called on 'MyControl'. In fact, 'MyControl' sticks around in memory until the MFC app closes. What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,

Aaron

Hi yesterday I was trying to build a program but i had a problem ...!
the problem was that when I put space (" ") in the string, it finishes the string aoutomatically , so what canI do to fix the problem?

notice that i cant use a array of characters in that solution Wink | ;)
