I've already spent alot of time in this article, but it doesnt help me (or at least I don't understand it well enough to help me). My application is running on a pc, and it needs to recieve instructions from a Palm, fetch data from the pc, and send it back to the Palm.
In order to do this, my application needs to be sitting here, and realize, oh! something has just hit the serial port. The program reads the data and processes it, then waits for the next com port "Event". I would prefer not to create my own loop and continue to poll the serial port, because then my application cannot handle other events that might occur.
That artice mentions an event called EV_RXCHAR is issued when a byte hits the serial port. I went through the message handling tutorials and tried to set up an event handler using ON_MESSAGE with no success. Im still trying all sorts of things, any more input would be appreciated.
thanks!

I have worked on a similar project 3 years ago and one of my team members handled the incoming data so I really don't remember much about the topic. If I remember correctly you have to have a thread which checks the serial port for a "Receive Character Event" and a while statement calling WaitCommEvent. I don't remember much but I hope that helps you.

Do as the sample \Microsoft Visual Studio\MSDN98\SAMPLES\VC98\SDK\WINBASE\IO\SERIAL do,all things are OKAY

Hello!
I have exactly the same Problem!
I just created a small function that results the current fill-status of the serial buffer. I used the implemented GetModemStatus function of CSerial from P.J.Naughter.
e.g.:
if (SomethingInIt()==TRUE)
buffer = Port.Read(..);
So this is nonblocking.
I hope I help you out!

I have a program that uses a Progress bar , but when i try to minimise the dialog window during execution or activate some other program ,
and then return back to the dialog seems to get freezed
, progress bar status does not increment ,
HOWEVER the program run correctly in the background and after its execution completes the dialog freeze end and it is displayed currectly .
Any suggestions ??

It sounds like the classic "preemption" problem. Your application is blocking while doing its processing, thus not allowing the dialog's message pump to process messages. Read Joe Newcomer's article on thread management[^].

hi yashraj,
Execute the background process in a seperate thread(Worker thread will do). Increment the progress bar from the thread.

Another problem when mixing pure "C" code and C++...
I'm adapting a DLL to use some pure "C" functions.
I have some modules in pure "C" puro and othersin C++.
In my module "ExportedFunctions.cpp" I have declared DLL exported functions... In this module the call to functions of class "login" are made:
login.createWindow(hwnd);
login.makeConexion(CString(operador), CString(senha), &lservidor );
In the file "ExportedFunctions.cpp" I have declared the class:
CLogin login;
In the module "login" I have declared as "public:" this functions:
public:
void createWindow(CWnd *pParent);
void makeConexion(CString operador, CString senha, CStringArray servidores);
These is working...;)
But now I have another modul (contcp.c), in pure "C"... And I have tried many ways to call fnEntrada from inside "ExportedFunctions.cpp" to a Function of "C" module without success! I #include "contcp.h" in "ExportedFunctions.cpp" and/or in "ExportedFunctions.h", but always occurs link error:
ExportedFunctions.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "int __cdecl fnEntrada(void)" (?fnEntrada@@YAHXZ)
../dlls/Axsceovs2.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.
Somebody may help me??

Anywhere you have #include "contcp.h", you need to surround that with the extern keyword as in:
extern "C"
{
#include "contcp.h"
}

Thank you, David! Ok very simple and I did it but, doesn't result... Remains ocurring the link error:
ExportedFunctions.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _fnEntrada
../dlls/Axsceovs2.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.
Another idea?

The problem occurs just this functions. If I declare a variable, this is recognized in the other module... Perhaps is something related with the function declaration? I'm declaring like this:
int fnEntrada();

Thanks again, David!
It's ok now! I forget a "static" in front of the function declaration in the .h file...

Hi!,
I use this code to get the column number of a CListControl into a CFormView. It works fine.
But It work for right click. I cannot find a Handler for left click. Something like NM_LCLICK unstead of NM_RCLICK.
BOOL CDataBaseManagerView::OnNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, LRESULT* pResult)
{
HD_NOTIFY *pHDN = (HD_NOTIFY*)lParam;
LPNMHDR pNH = (LPNMHDR) lParam;
// wParam is zero for Header ctrl
if( wParam == 0 && pNH->code == NM_RCLICK )
{
// Right button was clicked on header
CPoint pt(GetMessagePos());
CHeaderCtrl* pHeader =(CHeaderCtrl*)m_wndListCtrl.GetHeaderCtrl();
pHeader->ScreenToClient(&pt);
// Determine the column index
int index = 0;
CRect rcCol;
for( int i = 0 ; Header_GetItemRect(pHeader->m_hWnd, i, &rcCol) ; i++ )
{
if( rcCol.PtInRect( pt ) )
{
index = i;
break;
}
}
CString str;
str.Format("Column no: %d", index);
AfxMessageBox(str);
}
return CFormView::OnNotify(wParam, lParam, pResult);
}
any ideas?
Thanks
Everything's beautiful if you look at it long enough...

I found It!!
BOOL CDataBaseManagerView::OnNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, LRESULT* pResult)
{
//unstead of: HD_NOTIFY *pHDN = (HD_NOTIFY*)lParam;
// and: LPNMHDR pNH = (LPNMHDR) lParam;
NMHDR *pHdr = (NMHDR*)lParam;
//unstead of: if( wParam == 0 && pNH->code == NM_RCLICK )
if(pHdr->code == LVN_COLUMNCLICK)
{
...
}
return CFormView::OnNotify(wParam, lParam, pResult);
}
Everything's beautiful if you look at it long enough...

Hi,
For Left Mouse Button, it is just NM_CLICK.

Hello all,
Suppose I have a workspace with 50 files in it, and I want to print all of them. I couldn't find any 'Print All' option in the File Menu.
|
|
|
|
|
VC's IDE does not have such a feature. You'll need to use another text editor for printing multiple files.
|
|
|
|
|
Just out of curiosity, does VS .NET have this feature?
|
|
|
|
|
I've not used it so I can't say.

hi Makeover,
.NET does not have this feature.

Hi there, I think I need a little help with include files. Let's say I've 4 files: foo.h, foo.cpp, yak.h, yak.cpp.
foo.h has to include yak.h in order to use the classes it has. However yak.h needs a class from foo.h, let's say class bar. If I include foo.h in yak.h everything gets messed up. Can I do sth else? Can extern help me, if yes, how?
Thankx, Themis

well i usually get around this but not using those classes in my header file except for pointers ( i.e pointer parameters and member variables ) If you do that than all you need to do is include a class prototype for the object you are going to be using at the top of the file. If you a non-pointer variable you must use the header file because it will try to construct the object and hence require knowledge of the implementation.

I have array of characters.I want to send it as a parameters to other function and this character may contain '0',when I do it like the code below,it only pass up to '0' character.
char c[1000];
for(int i ; i<1000; i++)
c[i] =value;
myfunc(c);
Before the last line it containcorrect value,but in myfunc() it contain only value up to '0' value.So how can I pass it correctly?
