The scope of this question is quite wide and the answer would be "Yes" and a "No". Basically the interviewers try to understand your in depth knowledge about MFC. A few classes like CObject,CArchive(helps in Serialization), CCmdTarget (foundation class for message map architecture), CWinThread etc would help. The questions put in front of you might depend on the project requirement.

Expected is "yes". But it seems hard to gather the knowledge on everything. BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP etc should be known.
tasumisra wrote: 3)how about win32..?
Win32 is the base for MFC as it is built on top of it. Read Windows Internals to understand how things work.
Many people would also suggest to have a little or more knowledge of everything in MFC. But the crux is "The more you code, the better you become in terms of knowledge, understanding and preparation"

I have attended a lot of interviews for VC++ and MFC Requirements. it depends from person to person. You certainly need to know the basics of MFC, and win32. You would not have used all the macros that is available in MFC. So what you know can be explained to them really well so that they can get convinced that you have reall y worked on them or have knowledge on it...
You can get a job by learning a lot of things but what really matters is the practical experience. I wish you all the best for your interviews.

Hi everybody. I have a question regarding adding a method to premade code using visual c++. Here is the method:
void GetAllFiles( string sPath )
{
WIN32_FIND_DATA FindFileData;
string sTmpPath = sPath;
sTmpPath += "\\*.*";
HANDLE hFind = FindFirstFile( sTmpPath.c_str(), &FindFileData );
if ( hFind == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )
return;
else {
do {
if ( ( FindFileData.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY ) ) {
if ( strcmp(".", FindFileData.cFileName ) && strcmp("..", FindFileData.cFileName) ) {
sTmpPath = sPath;
sTmpPath += "\\";
sTmpPath += FindFileData.cFileName;
GetAllFiles( sTmpPath.c_str() );
}
}
else {
sTmpPath = sPath;
sTmpPath += "\\";
sTmpPath += FindFileData.cFileName;
cout << sTmpPath << endl;
}
} while ( FindNextFile( hFind, &FindFileData) != 0 );
FindClose( hFind );
}
return;
}
When I add it to the bottom of my form.h (below) file it comes up with these errors (bottom):

Your project properties are probably set to use Unicode instead of ANSI for all your strings.
Either change the project properties to use ANSI, or use the Unicode version of the strcmp function.

Thank you very much you solved all my problems. I can't thank you enough.

Also check to make sure that your project is set to use native C++ code in your CLI project. Not sure if that will help or not.
Why is common sense not common?

I do not fully understand what you mean. Is that an option in Visual Studio? I also came up with another question. How can I convert my System::String^ (in button2_click()) to std::string (in GetAllFiles(string))?

You are trying to use native C++ code in your managed C++ project. See this article[^]

See this article[^]
You might get a better response if you asked your questions in the managed c++ forum, here[^]. This forum is for unmanaged C++.

Why does the follwing throw an error @ delete []pBuffer;
char *pBuffer = new char[1024];
CString csBuf = (CString)pMember->m_member_label;
pBuffer = csBuf.GetBuffer(sizeof(pBuffer));
xtext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_xs)+(pMember->m_xe))/2.0);
ytext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_ys)+(pMember->m_ye))/2.0);
ztext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_zs)+(pMember->m_ze))/2.0);
m_bmf->DrawStringAt((GLfloat)(xtext), (GLfloat)(ytext+5), (GLfloat)(ztext), pBuffer);
delete []pBuffer;
|
|

|

ARRRRGH. You overwrite pBuffer with the result of CString's GetBuffer(), which gives you a pointer to a buffer you don't own. Then you try to delete it. BOOM.
You cannot delete the pointer returned by GetBuffer(), that memory belongs to the CString Object and it will delete it when the object is deleted or goes out of scope.
Plus, you've lost the pointer to the char[1024] that you did allocate with new, leaving a memory leak for that memory.
|
|

|

Thanks.
So, I'm an idiot. What do I do?
I did this, and it at least ran:
pBuffer=NULL;
delete []pBuffer;
|
|

|

Setting pBuffer = NULL and then deleting it is a big NOP, a no-operation. You might as well just deleted the "delete" statement.
Instead, if your sole purpose in doing the "GetBuffer" is to pass a string to DrawStringAt(), then you don't need to "new" or "delete" anything in that program. All you need is:
CString csBuf = (CString)pMember->m_member_label;
char *pBuffer = csBuf.GetBuffer(1);
xtext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_xs)+(pMember->m_xe))/2.0);
ytext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_ys)+(pMember->m_ye))/2.0);
ztext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_zs)+(pMember->m_ze))/2.0);
m_bmf->DrawStringAt((GLfloat)(xtext), (GLfloat)(ytext+5), (GLfloat)(ztext), pBuffer);
Or better yet, avoid the GetBuffer() entirely and pass "csBuf" to DrawStringAt() and let the compiler convert from CString to char * as needed.

This did it: (you approve?)
CString csBuf = (CString)pMember->m_member_label;
char *pBuffer = csBuf.GetBuffer(sizeof(pBuffer));
xtext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_xs)+(pMember->m_xe))/2.0);
ytext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_ys)+(pMember->m_ye))/2.0);
ztext=(GLfloat)(((pMember->m_zs)+(pMember->m_ze))/2.0);
m_bmf->DrawStringAt((GLfloat)(xtext), (GLfloat)(ytext+5), (GLfloat)(ztext), pBuffer);
pBuffer=NULL;
delete []pBuffer;

Nope, see my response to the earlier post

You really need to study this[^] carefully. You also need to learn about the sizeof[^], new[^] and delete[^] operators.

why pBuffer=NULL;
and then delete []pBuffer;
delete what? Only a invalid pointer
|
|
|
|

What in m_member_label is a CString pointer or not?
Or you should not do any thing, CString class local instance will destroy at the end of the fun automatically except a pointer from other place?

My application is working fine on 32 bit, I am trying to run in 64 bit mfc application, GUI is launching, the model is also loaded but the moment I press left right or middle mouse it crashes. what all i need to change to run successfully in 64 bit machine.
The error I found in OnMouseActive() function, do i need to implement this function ? Pls help me. Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
Is there any machenism to check the socket status (alive or dead )?
|
|
|
|
|
What do you mean by "alive" and "dead"?
> The problem with computers is that they do what you tell them to do and not what you want them to do. <
> If it doesn't matter, it's antimatter.<
|
|
|
|
|
If there is any doubt about the condition of a socket, it's best to simply Close() it and open a new one.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
