TCHAR c = str.GetAt(0);

Whooaaa there cowboy...you did that without using GetBuffer()? Now you're just talkin' crazy Wink | ;)

oh, sorry...

TCHAR a = *(str.GetBuffer(10)+5);

Mark, Can you explain what you are talking about? Sounds like something I should already know; but I don't. What I am doing is reading back a CStdioFile that I have save data into (collected from User input in dialogs). Some of this data is float numbers, hence the need to check each character in the CString. I have to use atoi(char) to convert the character which doesn't accept a TCHAR.

You can ignore this off topic discussion with cpallini...

It's a running joke about CString's overly misused GetBuffer() method Smile | :)

Mark,
chrs[1] = _T("\0"); // must be NULL terminated!
I get this error: " error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'const char [2]' to 'TCHAR'"
any ideas why?

A C++ programming language novice, but striving to learn

I used the wrong quotes, sorry!

That should be single quotes for a single character...

chrs[1] = _T('\0'); // must be NULL terminated!

Mark,
I'm getting a compiler error C1001; even after commenting out all the new code in the function. I tried shutting down the switches as help suggest. That doesn't work either. Any ideas?

A C++ programming language novice, but striving to learn

What's the error and what's the code involved?

I solved the problem by deleting the debug obj file previously created. works now!

A C++ programming language novice, but striving to learn

I tried that. Here's my code:
TCHAR chr;
int ch = 0;
chr = str.GetAt(0);
ch += atoi(chr);// ERROR HERE: when I try to convert it to int using atoi(chr)

I get this error: "Error 1 error C2664: 'atoi' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'TCHAR' to 'const char *' c:\users\larry a mills sr\documents\visual studio 2008\projects\logit\logit\editlog.cpp"

A C++ programming language novice, but striving to learn

atoi() takes a const char * as an argument, not a TCHAR.

What are you trying to do? Convert the TCHAR you extracted to an int?

If so, you should be using generic text mapped functions, not functions like
atoi() that only work with one character type.

Generic text mapped functions will work for Unicode or non-Unicode builds.

In a Unicode build, a TCHAR is a wchar_t
In a non-Unicode build, a TCHAR is a char

Generic-Text Mappings in Tchar.h[^]

CString is also a generic text class by the way - it's internal character type is based on the Unicode build setting.

Also, you need to pass the correct type of argument to functions.

Maybe something like this:

TCHAR chrs[2];
int ch = 0;
chrs[0] = str.GetAt(0);
chrs[1] = _T("\0");  // must be NULL terminated!
ch += _tstoi(chrs);

Thanks Mark.

Hey Mark, what about

int ch = str.GetAt(0) - _T('0');

?

Can anyone help me get on the right track with this program. I am having a hell of a time with this. I have to use De Morgans Law to show the original expression and the new expression:

a) ! ( x < 5 ) && ! ( y >= 7)
b) ! ( a == b ) || ! ( g != 5)
c) ! ( (x <= 8 ) && ( y > 4 ) )
d) ! ( (i > 4 ) || ( j <= 6 ) )

I know how to put it into De Morgans Law I just don't understand how to put it into a source code in C++

Please look at my code given below.

I am trying to download the one folder from one site using FTP
I have written the code for Download directory which calls itself recursivly and I am closing and opening the connetion eac time.

But the problem is it downloads only first two folders completly but it could not find the third folder or file though it is there.

FindNextFile function returns false after downloading second folder.

Please help me for this..
Here is the code for Download Directory

BOOL CFTPUpDwnldManager::DownloadDirectory(CString strSrcDirPth,
CString strTrgfDirPath)
{
BOOL bRetVal = FALSE;

theApp.WriteFTPlog("Src Directory:" + strSrcDirPth);
theApp.WriteFTPlog("Trg Directory:" + strTrgfDirPath);

if(strSrcDirPth.IsEmpty() || strTrgfDirPath.IsEmpty())
{
return bRetVal;
}

// assum that *.* is not apped in src and trg path
CString strSrcDirPth1 = strSrcDirPth;

int index = strSrcDirPth1.ReverseFind('//');
int indx= strSrcDirPth1.GetLength() - index;
CString strSrcDirPth2 = strSrcDirPth1.Right(indx);
CString RemoteDir=strSrcDirPth;

CString dirpath=strTrgfDirPath + strSrcDirPth2;

CreateDirectory(dirpath,NULL);
CString LocalDir = dirpath;

CFTPUpDwnldManager *pCFTPUpDMngr = (CFTPUpDwnldManager *)lParam;
if(NULL == pCFTPUpDMngr)
{
return bRetVal;
}

CFTPManager *pFTPManager = (CFTPManager *)lParam;
if(NULL == pFTPManager)
{
return bRetVal;
}

CNSInternetSession* pInternetSession = pFTPManager->GetInternetSessionPtr();
if(NULL == pInternetSession)
{
return bRetVal;
}

pCFTPUpDMngr->CloseFTPConnection();

if(-1 == pCFTPUpDMngr->GetFTPConnection())
{
return bRetVal;
}

CFtpFileFind fileFind(pFtpConnection,0);

CString strFindFilePath = RemoteDir + "/*.*";

BOOL bContinue = fileFind.FindFile(strFindFilePath) ;

DWORD dw = GetLastError();

if (!bContinue)
{
// the directory is empty; just close up and return.
fileFind.Close();
return bRetVal;
}

while (bContinue)
{

bContinue = fileFind.FindNextFile();

DWORD dw = GetLastError();

CString tempDirName = fileFind.GetFileName();
CString tempDirPath = fileFind.GetFilePath();

CString tempFileUrl= fileFind.GetFileURL();
if(fileFind.IsDots())
{
continue;
}

if (fileFind.IsDirectory())
{

CString NewSrcDir = RemoteDir + "/" + tempDirName;
//CString NewTrgDIr = LocalDir + "/" + tempDirName;
CString NewTrgDir = LocalDir;

DownloadDirectory( NewSrcDir ,NewTrgDir );
}
else
{
DownloadFile( RemoteDir + "/" + tempDirName ,LocalDir + "/" + tempDirName );

}
}

bRetVal = TRUE;
return bRetVal;
}

Thanks for letting us know.

By the way, how did you come up with such an elaborate subject line?

You can use of Invalidate.

The messages generated by the system should handle that.
