In theory. In reality, it would likely be less than 2GB.

There's no way a buffer can be 4GB (which is the question I was answering). Under normal circumstances, Windows only gives each process 2GB, and not all of that is available, which is why I said "less than."

Its just addition to existing post, in lst post[^] its accumulated writing, which is most of it is present in my previous post. Which I've deleted.

, No , you dont. I'm asking you to delete yours(if you feel), I feel, I've created unnecessarily multiple posts.

Yes, mentioned figure goes to 4GB.
Where as, only 2 GB address space will beavailabl for program out of 4GB virtual memory.

I think , this will be not case with 64-bit systems though.

Why confuse the issue with matters that were not even mentioned? Keep it simple.

True. I've just added one more thing.

[OT] I wonder, something is messed with posting, when i tried to post, its getting duplicated, and when tried to delete one of them, both are deleted.

Ensure Correct Size

Hi again,

When using the WriteFile function:

BOOL WriteFile(
  HANDLE hFile,                    // handle to file to write to
  LPCVOID lpBuffer,                // pointer to data to write to file
  DWORD nNumberOfBytesToWrite,     // number of bytes to write
  LPDWORD lpNumberOfBytesWritten,  // pointer to number of bytes written
  LPOVERLAPPED lpOverlapped        // pointer to structure for overlapped I/O
);

How can one be accurate on the nNumberOfBytesToWrite??
I have tried strlen() and sizeof, but still it writes out the whole buffer, and not just to the (null) '\0' character.
I have declare my buffer like this:

#define BUFFER_SIZE 100000
char buffer[BUFFER_SIZE]={0};

Thanx Again Smile | :)

strlen should give you correct result. Check lpNumberOfBytesWritten, for checking number of bytes written.

I apply brush over my bitmap image. but i want that brush background will be transparent so that bitmap image can be shown also.

How can i do that?

I suppose that you are using a hatched brush (with a solid brush, you cannot make it transparent) ?
If yes, take a look at the SetBkMode[^] function from CDC

The main problem i face that i donot find who call this
"int SetBkMode( int nBkMode )" function??

it returns integer value, but i dont know who use it.

Plz, help me.

Has the way MFC in dialogs works changed between VC7 and VC8? (or specifically in the latest service pack?)

We've got quite a few DLLs that contain dialogs, that worked fine in VC7 (and we think it was on in the vanilla install of VC8), but now assert then crash inside the dialog's DoModal call:
objcore.cpp line 40

BOOL CObject::IsKindOf(const CRuntimeClass* pClass) const
{
	ENSURE(this != NULL); --- Dies here

Here's the code that opens the dialog

AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState()); //needed to display the dialog across the dll

COptionsDlg dlg( CWnd::FromHandle( hwndParent ) );
if( dlg.DoModal() == IDOK )
{
        ...

It seems to work fine in release, but it appears to want to use AfxGetApp() in debug (which returns NULL, and this crashes inside IsKindOf)

We've tried making the DLLs derive from CWinApp, but that seems to fail in the CWinApp constructor when the dll is initialised ( ASSERT(AfxGetThread() == NULL); - I'm guessing the Calling application's thread is being detected here. )

Can anyone help out?

It is bad style and MS recommands not to share MFC-Object between different modules.
If you use dlls and exes it is always best to build all with the same VS !!!
Derive dlls from CWinApp.

I think you are in trouble because of these "hacks", and have to redesign your code. Unsure | :~

You better stick with VS2003 to your task, OR redesign for VS2005.

Did you test your code on Vista. (I bet you loose)

MFC objects aren't being shared between modules - the child DLL just has its own resources and dialogs (that refuse to open in debug)

For some reason, when I derive my child DLL from CWinApp it's asserting about the AfxThread - presumably its seeing the main app's thread and getting confused.

Sadly going back to 2003 isn't an option, as we have a large codebase, and it's not feasible to have different code built with different versions of visual studio (well, it is, but it'd be a nightmare to maintain!)
