#define and Streams

Hi everyone, especialy those nice gents who actualy answer the questions!

( Ladies? Laugh | :laugh:

)

I know that you can #define fileName "myFile.txt" a string in the globals area, and when you need to you can stream.open(fileName) so you wont have to write the file name every time you open a stream.

My question is this can the same logic be used to define the actual stream for example #define ifstream inFileStream so that I wont have to declare the streams inside functions that need to use them. So that the only line relating to a stream in the function would be inFileStream.open(fileName). This should also remove the need to pass the streams to functions since I will be able to open and close them any where any time.

Thanks in advance!

No. #define causes simple text subsititution before actual compilation. ifstream.open("myFile.txt") isn't valid C++ syntax.

this is not the place 2 post this. u shud have done it in asp.net column.
btw what xactly u need, r u a beginr, u just need some data 2 be posted to the asp page on the server? if so <form> - </form> in html will do.

otherwise if u need some data to be posted to an asp page on the server thru a non-explorer client app.. then use the XMLHTTP class provided with msxml.dll. Load ur data into an xml dom, call the open method of xmlhttp by passing the url of the asp page, and finally call the send method of xmlhttp by passing the dom object which loaded with ur data to be posted.

Hi,

From what I understand you want to send data to an asp page through the query string from a C++ application, right?

If that is the case then use the class CInternetSession. You will find the OpenURL() method of this class useful in sending the data to the asp page through the query string.

CEditView and XP Manifest

paulb11-Aug-04 20:11

11-Aug-04 20:11

As soon as I add this line to the resource file:

CREATEPROCESS_MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID RT_MANIFEST "res\Wcpm.manifest"

as recommended by an MSDN article in order to get XP visual styles, the CEditView in the application starts showing rubbish characters whenever a text file is opened and displayed in it.

All dialog controls and whatnot change to the XP visual style just fine, just this crazy CEditView behaviour also starts happening.

I suspect its something to do with the fact that CEditView directly manipulates the hosted edit control's buffer and doesn't go through SetWindowText or ReplaceSel or any of those functions to display text.

Mighty annoying. Anyone come across this before?

Hi, I will like to open a *.jpg file using iexplore.exe in my program. I tried to do this using
CreateProcess("...\\IEXPLORE.exe", "pic.jpg", .....) but it doesn't open the pic.jpg but displays the default homepage instead. Any suggestion on how I can get it done properly? Thanks.

XML Parsing

I got XML File,
it looks like this:

<br />
  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1251" ?> <br />

- <Справочники><br />
- <Name Group="Спиртные напитки"><br />

- <Name Group="бальзам Биос"><br />
  <Name Code="Казахский_0.25_л" SMTH="бальзам Биос Казахский 0.25 л" SMTH1="Есть" МелкОптЦена="111" ОптЦена="0" РознЦенра="115" /> <br />

And i want to get data (Group,Code, SMTH,SMTH1......). But i don't know how to get them. I Use msxml.dll and interfaces : MSXML::IXMLDOMDocumentPtr, MSXML::IXMLDOMElementPtr...

Re: XML Parsing

Something wrong with writing XML code here Smile | :)

In other words:

<Name Group="Something">
<Name Code="1234" SMTH="asdf" SMTH1="gd">

How to get data from Code, SMTH?

here is an example using XPath query language:

assuming XML file looks like this and you want to get the value of attrib2

<element1>
<element2 attrib1="123" attrib2=abc" />
</element1>

<pre>

#using "msxml40.dll"

IXMLDOMDocumentPtr spDoc;
spDoc.CreateInstance(__uuidof(MSXML2::DOMDocument40));

// load the XML file
_variant_t vFile("path to some file.xml");
VARIANT_BOOL bSuccess;
spDoc->load(vFile, &bSuccess);

// construct XPath query
std::string str("/element1/element2[@attrib1='123']");
_bstr_t bstr(str);

// get node matching the query (assuming only one node matches)
IXMLDOMNodePtr spNode;
spDoc->selectSingleNode(bstr, &spNode);

// get attribute node
IXMLDOMNamedNodeMapPtr spNodeMap;
spNode->get_attributes(&spNodeMap);

IXMLDOMNodePtr spAttributeNode;
spNodeMap->getNamedItem(L"attrib2", &spAttributeNode);

// get attribute value
_variant_t v;
hr = spAttributeNode->get_nodeValue(&v);

</pre>

Multithreading - passing message to a window question

Indrawati11-Aug-04 19:05

11-Aug-04 19:05

Hi
I have an app that use multithreading to update the display of a window. I use AfxBeginThread() to spawn the thread, passing a copy of the window's m_hWnd as its parameter. This thread will then execute SendMessage() to update the window's display. This works OK in the Debug mode. However, in the release mode, it always gives error (The app has encountered a problem and will be closed etc2) whenever I have spawned two of the said threads, and then I switched window! This error still occurs even if I make the member function processing the message to do no processing (i.e. it just returns). However, this error does not occur if I comment out the SendMessage() line in the thread's function. I have tried using PostMessage() instead of SendMessage(), but with the same result. Could someone tell me what's the possible cause for this?

Thanks!

Since the prblm is with release build only , mostly it will be a memory initialiaztion/allocation prblm.

Since both SendMessage and PostMessage failed, mostly the prblm will be with the initialiaztion of one of the parameter to these functions.

chk whether hwnd is initialized as below.

HWND hWnd = NULL;
or use
AfxGetApp()->GetMainWnd()->SendMessage
