This is what I used in a project few days ago:
std::basic_string<TCHAR> sFileContent = _T("");
if (sizeof(TCHAR) > 1) // if wide char
sFileContent += 0xFEFF; // this header tells notepad to read file as Unicode
sFileContent += _T("My favorite Dave Attell quote: ");
sFileContent += _T("Yeah, I know, some people are against drunk driving, ");
sFileContent += _T("and I call those people 'the cops'. But you know, ");
sFileContent += _T("sometimes, you've just got no choice; those kids gotta get to school!");
// save to file routine

having the same problem here, someone to help ?

Need help on Wizard Model..
Like3 dialogs flowing from one to other (First Dialog (Changed data , some controls dynamically created) -> Second Dialog (Changed data , some controls dynamically created) -> Third Dialog)
And when i want to come back from Second dialog to first the changed data and dynamic controls should exist on first dialog ..
What is the best method to do so?

please, show me how to solve this problem .
I need to create 2 process as follow :
process 1: this process allows us to enter an expression .
process 2: this proces calculates the above expression and return result for 'process 1 '.
Use 'Message queue ' to interact between 2 above process.

Hi,
this is the recipe in pseudo-code:
1. follow a programming course
2. choose a programming language
3. get a development system
4. open the IDE
5. write some code that creates two processes
6. write some code that creates/writes to/reads from a 'Message queue'
7. run it
8. when problems occur, fix them
when stuck, read the documentation; use Google and/or MSDN.
when you have a specific question, ask it here, providing all relevant information and showing what
you did so far.

I have compiled the following program in MS Visual C++ 6.0
Its strange for me to know the output of the program.
#include <stdio.h>
struct struct1
{
int i;
};
struct struct2
{
char s[2];
};
struct struct3
{
char s[2];
int i;
};
struct struct4
{
char s1[2];
int i;
char s2[2];
};
struct struct5
{
int i;
char s2[2];
};
int main()
{
printf("\nSize of Structure 1 = %d",sizeof(struct struct1));
printf("\nSize of Structure 2 = %d",sizeof(struct struct2));
printf("\nSize of Structure 3 = %d",sizeof(struct struct3));
printf("\nSize of Structure 4 = %d",sizeof(struct struct4));
printf("\nSize of Structure 5 = %d",sizeof(struct struct5));
printf("\n\n");
return 0;
}
The size shown by the program for structure 1 and 2 is OK. But result of structure 3,4 and 5 is mind f***ing. Why; when I declare the integer and charector in the same structer, the compiler add 2 extra bytes?
Actually i am reading the data from a binary file using the structure. But this thing has made me fool from last 2
days.
If anyone knows the reason or solution of that problem, please reply.
----------------------Output of the program-----------------
Size of Structure 1 = 4
Size of Structure 2 = 2
Size of Structure 3 = 8
Size of Structure 4 = 12
Size of Structure 5 = 8

if I remember correctly, the compiler adds packing bytes in certain cases to align data properly in memory
I believe there's a #pragma (PACK,<something,possibly num packing bytes/alignment > ) statement/define that can be used to change this
that may give you enough info to google/search on to see how accurate my memory is at 11pm on a Sat night ....

The compiler want's to align data so that it can be accessed efficiently. This generally means aligning the data on an n-byte boundary (so the address of the data is a multiple of n), or whatever it takes because processor operations are optimised for reading aligned data. What this means in practise is that integers, floats and structures are on 4 or 8 byte boundaries.
When this is applied to data in a structure, it can mean that padding is inserted to ensure that items with alignment requirements (such as integers) are correctly aligned. This is what you are seeing.
For more information, here's a Wikipedia page on the subject[^].

Hi,
as the others said, there is some padding going on, i.e. the compiler skips a few byte positions by inserting NULL bytes, in order to get everything "naturally aligned", meaning a struct member with size n (n=1/2/4/8) should reside at an offset that is a multiple of n.
you typically don't have to worry about this, unless:
1. you need a lot of those structs, so memory usage becomes important
2. you have a union with another struct and expect things to overlap in a specific way
3. you are going to pass the struct to some other code (is basically same as 2)
4. you need to follow a certain data layout, maybe in a file or in a byte stream to/from a device
you can get a more compact struct by:
1. using a compiler switch or a pragma to tell the compiler not to perform natural alignment (not always
a good idea)
2. reordering your struct members, biggest first (not always acceptable) unless you happen to have
one whose size isn't a power of 2 (an array, another struct!), then biggest first but filling
the gaps yourself with the smaller ones.
BTW: structs themselves also get naturally aligned in memory; assume a struct with 14 useful bytes,
but due to its layout, it reports a size of 16; even when you manage to reorganize it so it shows
size=14, it will be located at an address that is a multiple of 16, so it will most probably effectively
occupy 16 bytes after all.
