Did you use dependency walker (As mentioned in the faq) and determine what dependencies your application is using? Most likely if it's a crappy MFC application and you're building debug you don't have the debug MFC binaries installed.

Hello satish,

first u have to allocate memory for svr1 pointer like.
svr1 = new char();

then u can just copy the value of svr to svr1 like
*svr1 = svr;

As others have suggested, you could allocate memory for svr1, but for only one character, that is very inefficient/wasteful. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

Debug Assertion Failed when calling dll function

Jordan C. Atlas20-Jan-06 5:11

Hello,

I am using managed code to call a function in an unmanaged DLL. When I call the function, the program runs until the end of the function, and then gives a "Debug Assertion Failed!" dialog box for "Expression: _CrtIsValidHeapPoint(pUserData)". The error occurs no matter what code I have inside the function. For example, removing all the code in the dll function, so that it's just an empty function, does not prevent the error. The only thing that I've done to prevent the error is to comment out the line that calls the dll function.

This is how I import the function:

// Set up the import<br />
[DllImportAttribute("lib.dll")] extern "C" int func(string inputFileName);

This is the function declaration in the DLL code:

__declspec(dllexport) int func(string inputFileName)

Does anyone have any suggestions for how to track this down?

Thanks,

--Jordan

Even if I remove the whole function body, I get the same error. So, right now it looks like this:

__declspec(dllexport) int func(string inputFileName)<br />
{<br />
}

so, you're exporting a function that takes a std::string as input ? i suspect then that the std string ctor is going to be called even if there isn't any code in the body of the function. that could be related to the problem.

what if you change that to:

__declspec(dllexport) int func(const char *inputFileName)
{
}

?

Yes! That fixed it. Thanks.

So it's not allowed to create a managed function that uses an unmanaged class as input?

Linking Problem

Hi,

Is there a way in the code to ignore a library at linkage if the corresponding dll is not on the system or registered?

Thanks,
Tony

Use explicit linking instead.

Are you having a problem while linking?

AFAIK, the linker will not complain about the missing lib unless it could not resolve any symbol while linking.

Hi
In my application i have a wizard which has two dlg boxes derived from CPropertyPage & added to CPropertySheet class.

Now when the user makes his choice and and presses the <finish> button, a long process is called. Now untill the entire process ends, the wizard is not terminated.

I want the Wizard to terminate before the start of the lengthy process.

How do i achieve this?Plz suggest.

I am showing the code inside the OnWizardFinish() function.

BOOL CSelectSearchDriveDlg::OnWizardFinish()
{
CStxApp *pApp = (CStxApp*)AfxGetApp();
CMainFrame* pFrame = (CMainFrame*)GetParentFrame();

int nRet = 5; // Any value will do.

//Destroy wizard dialog

pApp->m_pMySheet->EndDialog(IDCANCEL);
pApp->m_pMySheet->PressButton(PSBTN_CANCEL);
//DoEvents();
//DestroyWindow();

pApp->FSys->DoLengthyProcessing();

return CPropertyPage::OnWizardFinish();
}

void CSelectSearchDriveDlg::DoEvents()
{
MSG msg;

// PeekMessage retrieves messages associated with the window or any of its children.
// During this call, the system delivers pending messages that were sent to windows.
while(::PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_NOREMOVE))
{
if(::GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0))
{
::TranslateMessage(&msg);
::DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
else
break;
}
}

I have tried everything such as:

pApp->m_pMySheet->EndDialog(IDCANCEL);
pApp->m_pMySheet->PressButton(PSBTN_CANCEL);
//DoEvents();
//DestroyWindow();

But with no success.

When i tried DestroyWindow() the GUI data(Buttons,list control, editbox) from the wizard disappeared but the wizard was still there.

How can i make sure that the wizard terminates before the lengthy process begins.

Waiting for suggestions

Best Regards Frown | :(

Maybe it is possible to move the lenghty process outside the Wizzard (I don't if this is already donc or not). And, also for me the best thing to do when you have a lenghty process is to start it in a separate thread to avoid the UI to freeze.

I am not sure where you are doing the processing. I believe it is in CMainFrame.
You could:
Create a custom message handler in CMainFrame, like:

//In resource.h:
#define WM_MYMESSAGE WM_APP + 200

Define a function to handle the message:
//In mainfrm.h
LRESULT OnMyMessage(WPARAM, LPARAM);

In mainfrm.cpp:

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMainFrame, CFrameWnd)<br />
...<br />
...<br />
	//}}AFX_MSG_MAP<br />
        ON_MESSAGE(WM_MY_MESSAGE,OnMyMessage)<br />
END_MESSAGE_MAP()<br />
<br />
LRESULT CMainFrame::OnMyMessage(WPARAM, LPARAM)<br />
{<br />
//do all the processing here.<br />
}

Now send the message:
//In the wizard:

CMainFrame* pFrame = ...whatever.<br />
pFrame->PostMessage(WM_MYMESSAGE,0,0);

All this is from memory, so there may be bugs.
Smile | :)

this is this.

Depending on how you started this "lengthy process," this may not be possible. If you used CreateProcess(), then it is simply a matter of ending the Wizard in a normal fashion. Otherwise, the Wizard will need to hang around along with the other, although it can be hidden.
