Got it! Most of the times, we have to read MFC's source code to know whais is happening. Look:

AFX_INLINE int CArray<TYPE, ARG_TYPE>::Add(ARG_TYPE newElement)
	{ int nIndex = m_nSize;
		SetAtGrow(nIndex, newElement);
		return nIndex; }
.
.
.
template<class TYPE, class ARG_TYPE>
void CArray<TYPE, ARG_TYPE>::SetAtGrow(int nIndex, ARG_TYPE newElement)
{
	ASSERT_VALID(this);
	ASSERT(nIndex >= 0);

	if (nIndex >= m_nSize)
		SetSize(nIndex+1, -1);
	m_pData[nIndex] = newElement;
}

The code is using a reference type (ARG_TYPE) to add the objects, that you are passing as unnamed temporaries (when are these being deleted?). Try something like this:

void CMyDialog::SomeFunc1()
{
SomeStruct a(0,0);

a = SomeStruct( 1, 2 );
m_MrOdd.Add( a );

a = SomeStruct( 10, 2 );
m_MrOdd.Add( a );

a = SomeStruct( 1, 212 );
m_MrOdd.Add( a );
}

I know it looks odd, but try it.

I tried this way:

OrderItems item(0, 0);<br />
item = OrderItems( 10, 96 );<br />
m_OrderItems.Add( item );<br />
item = OrderItems( 5, 13 );<br />
m_OrderItems.Add( item );

But ...... Frown | :(

Here's the story:

class OrderItems<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
  OrderItems(){}<br />
  OrderItems(int code, int count)<br />
  {<br />
    m_nCode = code;	<br />
    m_nCount = count;<br />
  }<br />
<br />
  int m_nCode;<br />
  int m_nCount;<br />
};<br />
<br />
class CMainPage : public CPropertyPage<br />
{<br />
.<br />
.<br />
.<br />
  void UseOrders();  // Where we should read items.<br />
<br />
public:<br />
  CArray < OrderItems, OrderItems& > m_OrderItems;<br />
}

And somewhere, in one of CMainPage methods I show another dialog and i add the items in that:

void COrderListDialog::OnOK() <br />
{<br />
  CMainPage* dlgMain = (CMainPage*) GetParent();<br />
	<br />
  OrderItems item(0, 0);<br />
  item = OrderItems( 10, 96 );<br />
  dlgMain->m_OrderItems.Add( item );<br />
  item = OrderItems( 5, 13 );<br />
  dlgMain->m_OrderItems.Add( item );<br />
<br />
  CDialog::OnOK();<br />
}

And then when i back to Main form i call UseOrders() to read the items but the problem occrues Frown | :(

I hope it's clear ...

I did some new tests on the code that the results are strange too.

1- I declared m_OrderItems as a pointer variable and then use new, when i want to add items it shows me an error: "Out Of Memory.", But the program doesn't crash.

2- I used vector instead of CArray and i get same result. (No Item !)

return value from a register write

Mel Feik5-Jul-04 9:19

5-Jul-04 9:19

Hey all, I'm working with a Phillips LPC2129 chip using a Keil compiler. In viewing the example code supplied by Keil, I noticed that they returned an 'int' from a call to a function sending a char out a UART configured as ab RS232 port.

To write to the UART the following is requiredL U1THR = <the char="" to="" be="" written="">.

The problem I have is that in the sample code provided by Keil they return that value in the 'putchar' call and I have no clue how to determine the value of the return. Moreover the manner in which a byte is written to the UART is a register write, not a function call. For example:

return( U1THR = ch );

where ch is the char to be sent. Regardless of what value ch = the return value is 'H' (0x48). I reckon my question lies in how to determine the return value of an assignment?

-any got any input on this?

Writing to Pocket PC File - Directory Structure?

I am trying to write/read from a .dat file as part of a much larger C# application. The application was written using the .Net Compact Framework, and everything runs fine on my WinXp desktop. However, I am having trouble writing to file on the Pocket Pc, because I know very little about their directory structure. I would like the file I am writing to to be someplace where multiple users can access it, so not in My Documents. So my question is: what should i change this line System.IO.StreamReader file = new System.IO.StreamReader("c:\\mobile.dat"); to, in order not to get this exception A managed DirectoryNotFoundException occurred at Application::Run+0xf. I tried using "\\mobile.dat", but to no avail.

Thanks,

How to store BLOB in SQLCE

Member 105289929-Jun-04 1:37

29-Jun-04 1:37

Hi all,
I would like to store a BLOB ( signature item ) in SQLCE. I followed the steps given in MSDN sites. Application stops when I encounter the declaration of ISequentialStream interface. In the ssceoledb.h, there is no implemenation of ISequentialstream or Ilockbytes. I am using SQLCE 2.0 and PocketPc 2002 emulation as well as device.

Please help

I tried with the latest download of the header from Microsoft site. Yet it is the same as wht i have now. Please indicate me where do I fail.
Thanks in advance

Hi Paulo,

Thanks for ur interest in helping me. But since it is very urgent I am forced to ask you the help immediately.

Let me explain in brief as wht i have done.
1) I call GetSignature method which will return a single row with the BLOB item (IMAGE datatype) as the first and only column in the rowset. The input to this method is an object whose class definition is as follows:

public:
unsigned char m_SignatureData[8192];
unsigned int m_SignatureLength;

/********************************************************************/
This m_SignatureData array stores the activated pixels constituting the IMAGE drawn on the screen.

2) GetSignature after retrieving the rowset will call update signature. The empty BLOB item is now filled with this m_SignatureData array . m_SignatureData array is actually converted into ISequentialStream pointer and then only passed to the SetData method of the IRowsetChange.

I have few questions

1) Which HROW is to be used in the IROwsetChange::SetData method ?
2) Which Accessor interface is to be used ? (One associated with the IRowset or IRowsetChange)?

Please help. (although the mail is lengthy)

void CTransactionRec::GetSignature(CSignature *m_Signature)
{
HRESULT m_QueryResult= NOERROR;

CString szQuery=L"select Signature from tblTransaction where Type='"+ m_stType +"'";
m_QueryResult = m_DbConnection.m_pIDBCrtCmd->CreateCommand(NULL,IID_ICommandText,(IUnknown**)&m_pICmdTextForList);

m_QueryResult = m_pICmdTextForList->SetCommandText(DBGUID_SQL,szQuery);

if(!FAILED(m_QueryResult)) {
if(!FAILED(m_pICmdTextForList->Execute(NULL,IID_IRowset,NULL,NULL,(IUnknown**)&m_pIRowset))) {
UpdateSignature(m_Signature);
}
}

// SetData - The provider will then do an ISequentialStream::Read

I may have a little bit more difficulty in helping you because I use the ATL OLE DB Consumer Templates, not "raw" OLE DB C++ code. But the priciples are the same, so let me explain these a little bit.

When you read a BLOB, the provider creates an ISequentialStream object and passes a pointer back to the consumer. You will have to choose if you use the object to read data, but must always release it.

When you write a BLOB (either inserting or updating), you have to do the exact reverse, meaning that you have to create an ISequentialStream object from which the provider will read the BLOB data. So, how do you create such a thing? I got help from this article:
SAMPLE: AOTBLOB Read/Writes BLOB Using OLE DB Consumer Template[^]. Note how the CISSHelper class is used to simulate a storage object.

I believe most of your problems will be solved when you implement this functionality.

Hi,
I am using pocketpc 2003 SDK on wince platform.
In my application, i need to create menu at runtime without using any resource. I will be getting the top menu item and pop up menu items during run time. I am trying to create menu bar using commandbar, but it is creating the menu bar at the top of the client area instead of down. I know that we need to use CreateMenu, CreatePopupMenu and AppendMenu functions, but after creating and appending the menu items what we should do?. I am not supposed to use MFC.

Please give some suggestions.
