i don't really agree with your demonstration here.
MFC hides the main() function, and if it does, it is certainly for good reasons.
you don't have to know "where is" main() nor "what it does". you only have to know "where to start when using MFC"...

That is probably true. And I would also go as far as saying that if you are using MFC then you have no need to access the main() function. But...

... if you already know what main() does, how it's used and what exactly it's purpose is. Infact if you have come to believe (not quite true I know) that every program must have a main() fuction, then you start with MFC, aren't you going to wonder WTF?
If you are starting out with MFC and C++ as a first language, then you don't need to know nor will you care. But when it's a second language you will start translating what you know into what you are learning.

i still don't agree. MFC provides an additional abstraction level which you don't need to "crack" at all. if you'r curious about the internal, read the docs, they're full enough. as an example, when you use a Windows API, you read the MSDN, so you know exactly how to use what or what function, right ? but do you go every time to the sources to try to understand how they coded the API ? i hope no so !
also, you know the program entry point is main(). but did you know that a program start is not really main() ? do you know all the initialisations the operating system does for you silently ?

Each to their own I suppose. MSDN has a wealth of info, so I agree, there is no need to go to the sources. But understanding what is going on under the hood, in a way that you are used to, is helpful to learning. I'm not saying you must know what is happening behind the scenes, but if you already know and simply don't understand whats in the foreground, don't you think you would learn it a hell of a lot faster by knowing what functions the wrapper is calling?

I did mention that in my post, perhaps you missed it

_tWinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPTSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)<br />
<br />
WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPCSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
The first works along side TCHAR and is able to switch between UNICODE and ANSI, look at the LPCTSTR. The second will only work with ANSI builds.

Have you looked in ...\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\MFC\SRC\Winmain.cpp?

your answers were so helpful. yes, _tWinMain() is same as WinMain(). it was define in tchar.h in include folder.
thank alot.

You need to create tooltip and set TOOLINFO and Send TTM_ADDTOOL

There are plentry of time functions here. I suggest you code up a little demo application to see how they all work.

That's not good!!
Do this instead...
#include <atlconv.h>
USES_CONVERSION;
char *charstring = W2A(( LPCTSTR )strString ); Hope this helps.

Hello,
and what about CString::GetBuffer(int iLen);? Can this help?
regards

Hello,
Sorry, may I suggest you to use a bit better code:
USES_CONVERSION;<br />
char *charstring = T2A(( LPCTSTR )strString );
It works both in UNICODE and Multi-byte Char mode

First of all, your string will have to be composed of ASCII chars.
Do a CString to WCHAR* in uniocode.
Then take every second byte from the WCHAR and put it into a char array.
This is because in memory a UNICODE string of ASCII chars looks like:
00 66 00 61 00 74 00 5F 00 62 00 6F 00 79 00 00
Note it is double null terminated when seen as a byte array string.
This text, when put into a char aray looks like:
66 61 74 5F 62 6F 79 00.
Which is:
fat_boyNULL

Hello Comunity,
how to read content of an *.exe file, i use CFile to read and put the content in an CString,
but the CString::GetLength() returns a less character number as i read?
So i read 24576 chars from a file in to CString and this CString returns only 140 chars with GetLength()!
<code>
CFile pFile;
pFile.Open(csFileName, CFile:modeRead, &e)
...
while(0 != (uReadBytes = pFile.Read(acBuffer, 1024)))
{
acBuffer[uReadBytes] = '\0';
csFileContent += acBuffer;
acBuffer[0] = '\0';
uFileSize += uReadBytes;
}
int iLen = csFileContent.GetLength();
now how to open and read an exe?
regards

Exe files can contain non printable characters. Don't trust CString to do the job for you. CString can only handle a null terminated string hence the invalid length returned.
You need to handle the data as a byte array. Take a look at CByteArray or simply create an array of bytes.

Hello Thomas,
thank for answer!
you mean something like this:
char acContentBuffer[100000];
FILE* pFile;
pFile = fopen(m_csExeFile, "r");
int i = 0;
char ch;
while(EOF != (ch = getc(pFile)))
{
acContentBuffer[i++] = ch;
}
acContentBuffer[i] = '\0';
break;
|
|
|
|
|
break; wrote: while(EOF != (ch = getc(pFile))){ acContentBuffer[i++] = ch;}
Read the file in one big chunk (e.g., fread()), not one character at a time.

Hello,
thank you for answer, this help me!
Now i can read from file all chars, next step is to write back to the same!
And this is my current problem, my *.exe file is not runnable after i write the data back!
And the same file have 1KB more size as before!
When i make changes with an hex-editor manualy character by character it stay all ok!
No size changes and exe run again!
Can give me some suggestion for this, how to write back in to exe?!
(This should be litle function to check identity of an executable, to avoid some manipulations of the same)
thanks in advance

So what are you doing to the data after it has been read, and what does the "write" code look like?
