Alternatively you could "convert" the strings you use in the configuration file into numeric IDs in your code (like if (strid == "IDI_TORTU") numid = IDI_TORTU; else ...). I always used MAKEINTRESOURCE with LoadImage so i'm not sure about string-identification...could it be that the method doesn't actually expects you to specify "IDI_TORTU" but rather the file name the resource was imported from, for example "my_tortu_icon.ico"?

Eureka! : )
No it was nothing like that. Seems all this time I've been looking in the wrong place.
I didn't know that for your resources to have string identifiers, you need to remove the define in whatever your numeric resource header file is maintained by visual studio. I just deleted IDI_TORTU in resource.h and now it works like a charm (doh  ).
Thanks for your help, if I hadn't simply tested with MAKEINTRESOURCE I'd still be debugging for instance handles

Hi all. I need to invoke a dll/exe upon selection of controls in flash like checkboxes,radio buttons etc..
By getting the status of the controls I need to perform the actions in my aplication which is developed in VC++ and accordingly I should give responses to flash.
All these process sholud be done inside the flash player only. Suggest me all the possible ways.
Referece materials/Solutions with code are much appreciatable..
thanks,
Praveen

If I remember correct, FSCommand will help to communicate with Application...

you can use FSCommand and socket .

the code in the first answer doesn't involve FSCommand and i think he is right to deal with communication between flash and C++

Hi,
I'm working on an application where it loads a huge file (like 4-6GB) and parses the file, searching for regular expressions, converting from Hex to Human readable form, filters etc.
Since the file is of very large size, I'm facing lot of performance issues where it takes hours to process and show the file information in a window.
To overcome this, what I did is, break the entire file into logical segments of 1 MB each and process 3 segments at a time. When the user is scrolling, the next segments will be processed. With this, a certain amount of improvements were done. But it is limited to files which are less than 300MB or so. For files which are over GBs, it is just crawling and pathetic.
Wondering if there is any better way to handle these large files in a better way so that the user need not wait for hours?
Will a buffered read and caching the decoded information in a temporary files using a thread would help? How can we make sure that the GUI doesn't hang during these intensive parsing process?
Really appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks
Vikas

by the way, the application is written in MFC

You could do memory mapping for the file segments.
You should get hold of a good profiler and check where the actual bottle neck is.

What about using a worker thread?

I've had pretty good performance with memory mapped files (I've only used files up to about 1GB). What you need to do is create a file mapping with CreateFileMapping and then use MapViewOfFile to map segments of the file.
I worked with 16MB windows on the file, which actually meant I mapped 32MB at a time, 16MB before and after the nominal file offset, so that negative random accesses from the file offset didn't fault over into the previous window - something like the diagram below:
+----------------+----------------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
+----------------+----------------+
^ ^ ^
| | |
-16MB Requested +16MB
offset into file
I packaged this up into a MemoryMappedFile class which had an associated randomly-access iterator class (like a vector has an iterator). The memory mapped file could only be accessed using the iterator, which was exposed using 'begin' and 'end' methods of the memory mapped file class.
On a reasonable workstation (2.4GHz Core 2 Duo), I could traverse the file at around 100MB/second when counting data packets whose size was roughly 200 bytes.

Hi to All,
I am trying to make a win32 dll.
I just wanted to make sure if we can use the win32 dll in all types of application project or all type of languages. I am sure about Vb. What about other languages? Will it work?
Thanks in advance

The correct answer is no. The practical, common sense answer, is yes (provided the target OS is Windows and you're ready to put some effort in the task...)

Most languages allows using Windows API (on Windows, of course) that comes inside DLLs, hence you will be able to use, as well, your DLLs, in such languages.

Hello all,
I have been given the work which includes writing a add-in for Outlook Express.
The working of this add-in should be as follows:
Whenever a mail is opened in a new window & a right-click is made on a sender's name,then a context menu should pop-up which will include some menu items apart from
existing ones.
I would also like to provide a separate tool bar which will have some buttons on it,
providing same functionality.
Is there a way of doing this without making use of Third-party libraries.
reply me at : n.chudekar.31@gmail.com
Thanks n Regards,
Nikhil.

I don't know about Outlook Express but for MS Outlook, you can do the operations that you have given using Microsoft VSTO. Please read more about it and see if it helps you.
