That would work for all the settings but one: the application path. I would need that path to get to the settings file.

on vc6 it's working; now trying to set it up in VS.net 2003 it does not work.
I have some header file external to my project ( from 3rd party vendor ).
c:\external\include\library_1\includes\<some header files>
c:\external\include\library_2\includes\<some more header files>
c:\external\include\library_3\includes\<some other header files>
...
I include all the header files in the StdAfx.h file :
#include "library_1\includes/hA.h"<br />
#include "library_1\includes/hB.h"<br />
#include "library_1\includes/hC.h"<br />
#include "library_1\includes/hD.h"<br />
#include "library_2\includes/h1.h"<br />
#include "library_2\includes/h2.h"<br />
#include "library_2\includes/h3.h"<br />
...
Header hA.h includes a header in library_2 h1.h like :
#include "h1.h"
In VC6, in the project settings, I set the path to
c:usr\local\include\,
c:usr\local\include\library_1\includes\,
c:usr\local\include\library_2\includes\
this seems to be working.
But when I import this into my vs.net 2003 project, the path are not recognized.
Any ideas where I need to set the path to library_2 and library_1 ?
I don't want to have to change the header files, but if I have to, I will do it.
Thanks.

First off, I am brand spankin new to "The Code Project". I am writing in C++
using the API's for various things. Currently my biggest problems are as
follows:
1) I created a GUI with 4 gauges, 4 bargraphs and a chart. There
seems to be some sort of memory leakage(ie. GDI objects just keep climbing until it crashes.) I can't find the culprit. All objects are being deleted after use.
2) I am using COM ports to communicate with some machinery and I am trying to
find a way to verify which port is connected.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Well, the code is rather large but if that is protocol, I'll paste it or
whatever I need to do.
Just post it here???

Well, as for the Memory leak - it appears that my partner found it. You guys
are amazing. One post and the problem is solved.

I created a windows timer in a CView object , a nd when I killed it in the destructor, the app would crash. When I kill it in onDestroy, it's fine. Why?

By the time your destructor is called, the windows and the message pump are already gone ?

A timer is associated with a window. In a CWnd destructor, the window is already gone, so calling functions that operate on that window won't work.

I've seen in some programs that you put for example a number in an edit box, and imediately the result (may be in another edit box) appears. In general you do something and without pressing any buttons or anything the others change.
How is this done?

This is done in response to the EN_CHANGE notification.

By doing the processing in the message handler for the EN_CHANGE event for the CEdit object.
It's supposed to be hard, otherwise anybody could do it!

I just tried to include <fstream> in my program, and it throws this error.

Hi all,
Since a few weeks I am playing with detour and winapi functions.
I hooked DirectDrawCreate and GetProcAdress. In the function GetProcAdress I want to return the adress of the api function "DirectDrawCreate" without detour does some 1 got the solution for this? Below the code I made so far:
<br />
<br />
DETOUR_TRAMPOLINE( HWND __stdcall zDirectDrawCreate(GUID* lpGUID , LPDIRECTDRAW* lplpDD , IUnknown* pUnkOuter) ,DirectDrawCreate );<br />
<br />
HWND __stdcall sDirectDrawCreate(GUID* lpGUID , LPDIRECTDRAW* lplpDD , IUnknown* pUnkOuter) <br />
{<br />
return zDirectDrawCreate(lpGUID , lplpDD , pUnkOuter);
}<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
DETOUR_TRAMPOLINE(FARPROC WINAPI zGetProcAddress (HMODULE hModule, LPCSTR lp),GetProcAddress);<br />
<br />
FARPROC WINAPI sGetProcAddress (HMODULE hModule, LPCSTR lp)<br />
{<br />
if(HIWORD(lp))<br />
{<br />
<br />
<br />
if(!strcmp(lp, "GetProcAddress")) return (FARPROC) zGetProcAddress;<br />
<br />
}<br />
return zGetProcAddress(hModule, lp);<br />
}<br />
<br />
void Detour_PB_DirectDraw()<br />
{ <br />
DetourFunctionWithTrampoline((PBYTE)zDirectDrawCreate,(PBYTE)sDirectDrawCreate);<br />
}<br />
<br />
void Detour_PB_GetProcAddress()<br />
{<br />
DetourFunctionWithTrampoline((PBYTE)zGetProcAddress,(PBYTE)sGetProcAddress);<br />
}<br />
<br />
bool WINAPI DllMain(HINSTANCE hInst, DWORD dwReason, PVOID pvReserved)<br />
{<br />
if(dwReason == DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH) <br />
{<br />
<br />
Detour_PB_GetProcAddress(); <br />
Detour_PB_DirectDraw();<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
else if(dwReason == DLL_PROCESS_DETACH)<br />
{<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
return true; <br />
}<br />

Return the address of the trampoline. i.e.
DETOUR_TRAMPOLINE(FARPROC WINAPI zGetProcAddress (HMODULE hModule, LPCSTR lp),GetProcAddress);
FARPROC WINAPI sGetProcAddress (HMODULE hModule, LPCSTR lp)
{
if(HIWORD(lp))
{
if(!strcmp(lp, "GetProcAddress")) return (FARPROC) zGetProcAddress;
else if (!strcmp(lp, "DirectDrawCreate")) return (FARPROC)&zDirectDrawCreate;
}
return zGetProcAddress(hModule, lp);
}
If you look at the machine code for the trampoline it will consist of a few bytes from the detoured API followed by a jump. Don't let this fool you; calling it will have the same effect as the original API.
Also I think the following:
(FARPROC) zGetProcAddress
Should be:
(FARPROC)&sGetProcAddress
Steve

But If I am right then you retour the adress of the detoured function. I want to return the adress there of the unmodified api "DirectDrawCreate"
|
|
|
|

Detours works by overwriting the target function - The address of the original function is no longer the address of the original function. Detours copies the overwritten data into the trampoline and then puts in the trampoline to the original function after the overwritten code. In short calling the trampoline (as my code did) has the effect of calling the original function.
Steve

I know how detours works. But I want the adress of the unmodified api"DirectDrawCreate" before I hook those functions.
The question is how can I do that.
Do I have to get it with:
int DirectDrawCreate = (int)GetProcAddress(LoadLibrary("ddraw.dll"), "DirectDrawCreate");
Then read the bytes and copy them with CopyMemory()
And then hook the api's
|
|
|
|
|
Here's how I use detours:
DETOUR_TRAMPOLINE( BOOL WINAPI Tram_EnableWindow(HWND hWnd, BOOL bEnable),
EnableWindow )
BOOL WINAPI My_EnableWindow( HWND hWnd, BOOL bEnable )
{
return Tram_EnableWindow(hWnd, bEnable);
}
void ApplyDetours()
{
DetourFunctionWithTrampoline((PBYTE)Tram_EnableWindow, (PBYTE)My_EnableWindow);
}
void RemoveDetours()
{
DetourRemove((PBYTE)Tram_EnableWindow, (PBYTE)My_EnableWindow);
}
Because of the way Detours works, the address of the API before the detours is applied is the address of the modified function after it is applied - This is why it's do powerful as the hook function is called regardless of the calling mechanism (unlike IAT patching for example). The address of the original function after the detours has been applied is the address of the trampoline function. I don't know what you mean when you say, "Then read the bytes and copy them with CopyMemory()" - Detours takes care of all this for you.

A program that I use detects I use detours on "DirectDrawCreate" They use "GetProcAdress" to detect it. detour make jumps 0xE9 or 0x90 thats wot they see.
IAT patching sounds like a solution for this problem can you show me a example maybe ?
|
|
|
|
|
IAT patching will only work if the DLL is not dynamically loaded. Is this the case? To check you the export table of the .EXE and see if it contains the API using "Depends.exe" or some such tool.
Steve

Well its an api function that is used in a game....
pbcl.dll which is dynamically loaded calls "DirectDrawCreate" in ddraw.dll
Is there a solution for my problem ?
