As it seems, the value in the file is a string.

If that is the case (and cfTag.Read is a functions to read a string from a file into a given char array), you are using it wrong. You should probably use something around the lines of (thats a guess):

char tScaleLow[TSCALELENGTH]; and<br />
cfTag.Read(tScaleLow,sizeof(char) * TSCALELENGTH);

Actually, without a definition of cfTag.Read, there is no way to tell what you are doing wrong, but I really suspect wrong use of "Read" to be the reason.

Cheers,
Sebastian

Debugging NULL call CTDs

Hi all,

I hope you can give me a hint or help about a debugging issue.

Out of a minidump I got from a release build, the problem showed as follows:

The stack in VC++ debugger when opening the .dmp file, showed:

0x00000000

and nothing else. EIP of course also contained NULL.
I then looked at the ESP address to see the stack. There I found the jump-back address to see where the code would continue if the jump that now occurred to 0x00000000 would have been successful.

The C++ code there looks like the following:

if (variable && variable->SomeFunction() && .....)

"variable" is a pointer to an object of a class.

The question now is, how can I debug that further. Did "variable" maybe not contain - for some reason - a pointer to an object of the class it should point to where the offset to ->SomeFunction() would be NULL ?

Any idea how, for the next iteration of the release software, some code could be added to give more information about the problem - if it still crashes there ?

Thanks for any help,
Manfred

Well, I guess this won't help me when the EIP actually jumped to 00000000

I used the PDB anyway which got me enough information to find the code where the offending jump occured.

Hi all,

i play a sound using:

PlaySound(MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_WAVE),AfxGetInstanceHandle(),SND_PURGE | SND_RESOURCE | SND_ASYNC);

i stop this sound using:

PlaySound(NULL,AfxGetInstanceHandle(),SND_PURGE | SND_RESOURCE | SND_ASYNC);

But when i call the above line again (PlaySound with NULL), the sound is being played again

is there a way to avoid this problem?

thanks

Are you referring to this? If so, I fail to see your point.

WhiteSky wrote:

About what?

WhiteSky wrote:

In your reply here, you only provided two arguments to PlaySound(). I "corrected" you by asking about the missing argument. What part of that did you not understand?

Hi,

good question ...

a) libc.lib -> single threaded, static link
b) libcmt.lib -> multithreaded, static link
c) msvcrt.lib -> multithreaded, dynamic link

and for debugging versions
libcd.lib
libcmtd.lib
msvcrtd.lib

Hi,

you need only one of this libraries. Each of this libraries has the "same" functions, but for other threading and linking!

Include path:
Version 1: (for the studio)
Tools->Options
Dialog-Tab: Directories
Choose: Library Files

and add the directory from the lib

Version 2: (only the project)
Use Project-->Settings-->Link-->Object\Library module edit box.

the correct path for you = ???
-> search for one of this files
-> possible results:
c:\program files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib
c:\program files\Microsoft SDK\lib

If you found more than one locations, use the newest versions. (e.g. SDK -> include order)

Can't you simply use ShellExecute()?

Its a suggestion I think you can see extensions in registry each extenstion has a program that open it now when you dclick in your treectrl you cna check registry for it extenstion for example bmp has Paint.exe or doc
Wordpad

See HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT in registry if you click on .avi you can see OpenWithList and then wmplayer.exe its default for run this extension for anothers has a program or maybe not for default now you can check your extension file with this values and run with default program

CSplitterWnd divider line

Hi All,

I used CSplitterWnd to have two view, these two views will display images, but the problem is these images are continuos images (i can't use a single view, 'coz of the design). so i have to avoid the divide line of the splitter control.

I tried all the thing in OnDrawSplitter but nothing worked (a blank white space is visible, if just return).

Is there any way to avoid the splitter divider??
