Oh no i have used this. It creates a rectangle like CreateRectRgn(LPRECT) function but use no memory . It performs no scalling.

ANyway this can be done. I don't know any API are there .
by using a simple idea, u will get the points from region (GetRegionData) .And try scaling those coordinates by simple multiplying. I hopes it will work.

If u can Dream... U can do it

do a check on the size of the image, you might not be allocating enough space?

how does Dlg.CaptureImage() return the image data?

by value?

i'm not sure about the error if that isnt the problem.
would need to have access to a compiler which i dont at the moment Sigh | :sigh:

Check the return pointer of CaptureImage , is that the same as the orginal (before calling CaptureImage ). Also Try Debugging CaptureImage. the problem is ur trying to delete a pointer which is not a valid head head. it can also happen in these case

int * p = malloc(100);
p+= nSomeValueLessthan100;
free(p);

So try to debug the function. rather than worrying. It will be ok.

If u can Dream... U can do it

   In the first line, you are allocating memory into the Image pointer.

   In the second line, you are reassigning that pointer to some other value.

   In the third line, you are calling free(...) on the value obtained in the second line, not the value obtained in the first line, so you may be trying to free a invalid pointer.

   Peace!

Yes, if you skip step #2 and the error goes away, you have found the source of the problem. It seems that you are not passing the allocated memory to CaptureImage(...), and since we do not know what is going on inside of that function, there is little other help that we can provide.

Peace!

Text mode treats end line characters differently. Check out the documentation.

open it in notepad... if you find it readable, then it's probably a text file.
if it contains "hieroglyphs" or so, then it's a binary file, and you must know the format of how the data have been written in it to read them back

Hello everyone,

I have written two simple programs (source codes are the same),

1. In an exe, loading a class from another COM component by invoking CoCreateInstance;

2. In a COM DLL, loading a class from another COM component by invoking CoCreateInstance;

1 success but 2 fails. I am running in the same environment (machine) using Visual Studio 2005. Any ideas of this issue?

thanks in advance,
George

WideChar to Variant conversion

Can anyone tell how to convert a widechar string to VARIANT

I have an unsigned char* string , I am converting it to widechar using MultiByteToWideChar.

How to convert it to VARIANT ?

The data is getting lost if i use ColeVariant.

If you paste your code here, that would be more helpful but simply u can do it by setting the vt of variant to VT_BSTR and then create a bstr. Put the string in BSTR by using ::SysAllocString and set that BSTR in the variant.

Something like:
BSTR bstrString = ::SysAllocString(str);
VARIANT var;
var.vt = VT_BSTR;
var.bstrval = bstrString;

I have sumthng like this

VARIANT getData()
{
unsigned char* puc_Data = " SOME TEXT ";

// I am converting the above unsigned char to whar_t* using

MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8,..,puc_Data,len,wchar_t*,len);

// I want to take this wchar string and convert it to VARIANT
// Doing it thru COleVariant

ColeVariant var(wchar string );

// Data is getting lost sumwhere here ...

return var;

Can anyone suggest wat i m doing wrong??

Why not just do this and let COleVariant do what it is designed to do?

ColeVariant getData()
{
char* puc_Data = " SOME TEXT ";
ColeVariant var(puc_Data);
return var;
}
