What do u do before this line ? You must be calling Create() before the socket object is initialized.

I actually solved the problem. The trouble was that this code (DnsSocket = new CSocket) is written inside a new secondary thread. As such there was no initialization code for winsock in the thread and that's why the code was asserting on DnsSocket->Create(). Now it works fine

Hi!
I recently stumbled over this interesting phenomenon using abstract member functions:
The situation is this: We have an abstract base class that defines an interface. In the constructor of the base, a specific implementation dependent task needs to be carried out, so an abstract
member function is invoked in the constructor. The behaviour of this member function is defined by derived classes.
If no function body is provided for this abstract function in the base class, a linker error occurs (unresolved symbol). If we provide an empty body, in the base, everything links fine and the vtable
lookup correctly resolves the implementation of the deriving class.
The question is this: If the abstract function is resolved at run-time anyway, through use of vtables, why give me a compile-time error if I don't provide a body that will, due to it being an abstract
function, never be used in the first place?!
Is this a Microsoft specific behaviour bug/"feature", or is this standard ISO behaviour?
I compiled this using MS VS .NET 2003
Thanks for any thoughts about this.

Here is some exaple code for you to check it out:
<br />
#include <stdio.h><br />
class base<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
base()<br />
{<br />
abstractFunction();<br />
}<br />
virtual ~base() {};<br />
<br />
<br />
virtual void abstractFunction() = 0 ;<br />
};<br />
<br />
class derived : public base<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
derived() {};<br />
virtual ~derived() {};<br />
<br />
void abstractFunction()<br />
{<br />
printf("works\n");<br />
}<br />
} testInstance;
This code should print "works" to the console, since the
As soon as you uncomment the function body of base::abstractFunction(), everything will link fine and work as expected.

You cannot call a virtual function of a derived class from a base class constructor. This is due to the order of construction. Base classes are built first so there is no vtable pointer available to call the correct function in the derived class, which is yet to be constructed.
You need the function body as the virtual call compiles to the base class member function not the derived class one.
You need a two stage construction method to handle what you need to do.
x = new drieved;
x.Initialise();
Where the initialise function calls the correct virtual functions once the object is fully constructed.
If you vote me down, my score will only get lower

Ah, I see.
That escaped my attention. Quite obvious though, come to think of it. (->silly me)
So the fact that my example code works OK is only by chance and not a regular case and more complicated classes or a release version compile might produce unpredictable results.
Thanks for the comment.

Hi,
Is it possible to "peek" stdin (i.e. check if any data is available) for a Win32 "kind of" console application?
Problem: A thread has to read stdin, but needs to react on an event

See if GetStdHandle(), and ReadConsoleInput() or ReadFile() are of any help.

Hi, I just made a program and I put a button in the dialog and called it IDAbout I need to get it so that when this button is clicked it open up another Dialog that I have made called IDD_ABOUTBOX. Can any body please help me write a code for the button so that it opens up the about box?
I am using MFC Dialog based project.
Thanks in advance.

Have you created a class for the IDD_ABOUTBOX dialog?

Ok, have you used ClassWizard to create a handler function for the clicking of the button?

Yes I have. Ijust dont know the script to put into:
void CMizfarsProgramstringtestingDlg::OnAbout()
{
// I need the code to put here to get it to open IDD_ABOUTBOX
}
To link it to the About Box.
Thanks

Construct an instance of the second dialog and call its DoModal() method.

I much prefer the phrase "less experienced."
Not knowing what name you gave your dialog class, I can only give you an approximation.
void CMizfarsProgramstringtestingDlg::OnAbout()
{
CMyOtherDlg dlg;
dlg.DoModal();
}

First i am sorry about that phrase.
Secondly:
I tried what you told me, but i keep getting this error when i compile:
midl : command line error MIDL1001 : cannot open input file Program.
I dont know what it means.
I put this code in:
CAboutDlg dlg;
dlg.DoModal();

Are you doing something with COM? Using AppWizard, what type of application did you opt for, and what other options did you select?

Wait that was something else.
Sorry about that.
I got it working how you told me.
Thank you so very much!!!

Hi Community,
I want to extend the detail view of the explorer shell to handle video summary information for mp4 files in the summary tab of the advanced property page under XP on an NTFS file system.
This behavior is already included for mp3 and avi files, although mp3 and avi aren't compounded documents. So therefor, I must implement the IPropertySetStorage interface. What do I have to do to implement that interface? Is there an example somewhere?
It is important to me, that the metadata is not stored in an additional NTFS
stream, but inside the mp4 file itself. So I have to handle this by my
own shell extension code. But how, where, when ...
Thanks in advanced,
David

I have added a define in my Visual Studio .Net configuration. However my #ifdef's do not see the define. Anyone knows how this can be?

Hi,
I have a CDateTimeCtrl which I am growing in size when the focus is set and shrinking back to its normal size when focus is killed.
at the moment the only way I can get the control to lose focus is to set the focus onto another control.
Ideally when the user clicks anywhere outside of the control the focus should be lost and the CDateTimeCtrl shrink back to its normal size, but I can't see how to capture a mouse click on a CDateTimeCtrl.
The ComboBox control obvioulsy does something similar but can I do it with my CDateTimeCtrl?
Many Thanks

you could handle the WM_KILLFOCUS message for your control.

error C2079: 'm_RealTime' uses undefined class 'CRealTime'
What is this error?
CRealTime is a modless dialog I use from a diffrent dialog and I have not seen this error before. It have work OK but now it happens is there anyone that now what it is?
|
|
|
|
|
if CRealTime is declared in the calling class's header file, you'll need to make a forward class declaration so that the compiler knows that it's a class when it compiles the header. Here's an example:
class CRealTime;
class CCallingClass : public CSomeClass
{
CRealTime m_RealTime;
};
