True, the System Error codes provide a description, but its the same generic description. Could you tell me what might be causing this runtime error? am specifying all the paths of the DLL,exe,LIB. Am i missing any other environment settings...any help on that?

Not without seeing the line of code in question.

But are they the correct paths? Are they absolute or relative?

AM giving absolute paths of the DLL and the .exe of my project in the Tools-options-directories and also filling up the System PATH vairable with the same paths, though am still getting that error.
do you have an idea, what are the general locations the loader looks for while executing an .exe ?
Imagine am working on a weekend!

I usually try to set the error code to display errors when this happens.
SetErrorMode(0) so that all errors are displayed. When all errors are displayed, Windows will tell you which DLL is missing or exported function is not found that your application is trying to load or find. Usually, an application has the error mode set to something other than 0 because it is 'handling' the errors.
Try that and see if you get more information from your program.

Look for winerror.h (in VC6, open a new text document, type winerror.h, select it, right-click on it and select "Open document") for most error codes you will ever encounter. Path not found is exactly that - like trying to open C:\BadDir\MoreBadDir\File.txt when the BadDir directory does not exist.

Could any body tell me how to hide/disable the horizontal and vertical scrollbar of CListCtrl? Thanks in advance.

I just did a test for you:
YourList.EnableScrollBarCtrl(SB_VERT,0);

Hi there.
Lets say that I want to see wich way of output is faster: "printf" or "cout". I would writte something like this:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int main( void )
{
time_t begin, end;
begin = time( NULL );
unsigned long i;
for ( i=0 ; i<4294967295 ; i++ )
printf( "%d\n", i ); // This is for printf. If I was testing cout it would be
// cout << i << endl;
end = time( NULL );
printf( "IT TOOK: %d\n", end - begin );
return 0;
}
My intention is not to test wich of those is faster but to have an algorithm to test the speed for any application. The problem with this implementation is that it is not very precise; computers work a lot faster than what can be measured with seconds. Any suggestions?
Regards.

fprintf() certainly.
but the 2 ones are no way comparable.
cout is 100% OO...
you could however test using GetTickCounter()... this is the best way to know.

Actually I'm not getting the results I was especting with this code.
int main( void )
{
unsigned long Begin, End, i;
tVar<int> *tVariant;
// Marks app init
Begin = GetTickCount();
// Writte testing stuff here
for ( i=0 ; i<500 ; i++ ) { // 4294967295
tVariant = new tVar<int>;
tVariant->TContextData = i;
delete tVariant;
}
// Marks app end
End = GetTickCount();
printf( "\nIT TOOK: %ld\n", End - Begin );
return 0;
}
I get an output of: "IT TOOL: 0". Know why!?

Because the loop is only executing 500 times.

Isnt there some other function more precise than this one?

Not when what you are wanting to measure happens in just a few ms. You can increase the number of times the loop executes (e.g., 250,000) to verify that it is being timed.
To get a little more granularity, you can use the multimedia timers.
Also check out QueryPerformanceCounter() and its API.
Because Windows is not a RTOS, you'll do no better than about 10ms for a Windows NT-based machine.

If you are building it in Release mode, I bet the compiler simply optimized away your loop.

Use the QueryPerformanceCounter API's - look it up on MSDN/Google, and you'll should see tons of examples of how it's used. That's alot more accurate (I think) than GetTickCount().

Hello hint_54
When I would like to know how much time it takes to execute a particulary piece of code and this piece of code is very short I read the CPU time stamp twice. (Assuming that you are running a pentium class processor) The CPU time stamp is a 64 bits counter that runs on the same frequency as your CPU does. So with this you ll be able to measure very short times very accurate.
Oke this function is written in asm for the Borland compiler.
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
//Read CPU time stamp
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
__int64 CWaveIn::CPUTimeStamp(void)
{
asm
{
xor eax,eax
xor ebx,ebx
xor ecx,ecx
xor edx,edx
cpuid
rdtsc
}
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The instruction rdtsc reads the CPU time stamp and returns its value in register eax and edx. So you could do the folowing
ULONGLONG qwStartTime;
ULONGLONG qwStopTime;
qwStartTime=CPUTimeStamp();
//Place code here...
qwStopTime=CPUTimeStamp();
//Time?
qwStopTime-qwStartTime;
Succes

Hi all, i want to lock a region of a file over the 32bits limit 2GB. With _locking i can't, because it only supports 32bits filesize. Does anyone know how to lock a file in a position greater than 4gb?
Thanks.

Hello,
Is your file already open? If not, you can open the file with a exclusive lock for the entire file using OF_SHARE_DENY_NONE. See the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/fs/openfile.asp" rel="nofollow">OpenFile</a>[<a target=_blank title='New Window' rel='nofollow' href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/fs/openfile.asp">^</a>] API.
Hope this helps.
