volatile means that the variable can be modified at any time without the compiler knowing, which means the compiler must always access the variable and not store it in a register.
I think you'll find that volatile is of limited use in a multi-threaded context - explicit serialisation/control of access to shared data is what is needed - critical sections, mutexes etc...
Don't try to design lock-free structures - they're very, very, very difficult to get right. Use locks and minimise the amount of shared data.

There is no special asm emitted for volatile variables (in x86/x64). It is used by the compiler to restrict optimizations and control instruction ordering only. As Stuart mentioned, it isn't a lot of use (by itself) in mt programming.
Normally you'd want a lock, but a quick scan of your code seems to indicate that the algorithm ensures that main() and ThreadFunc() will always be reading/writing different buffer.data[] indicies - you'd want to make sure this is true, in some sort of formal proof, before letting the code go live.
So, in your case, after ThreadFunc() writes to buffer.data[i] and releases main() to read it, the cpu cache coherency mechanism (x86/x64) will make sure that main() sees the new version of buffer.data[i] if it is running on a different core. You don't need to do anything to make this happen.

Folks, I have been told that there is one logical problem with this code. Basically, this is an implementation of the library function strcat().
The intended beahviour of this function to concatenate ct to the end of s. Return s.
I could not find any logical problems with the code, apart from the fact that the final string should be NULL terminated, but I am not sure that can be classified as an error.
Could you help me find the error, if there is any.
char *strcat(char *s, const char *ct)
{
int i, start;
start = strlen(s);
for (i = 0; i < strlen(ct); i++)
{
s[start + i] = ct[i];
}
return s;
}
P.S. -
Is this the only correction needed in the code:
s[start+i]='\0'; \\after the loop

This should happen as part of the normal "copy" loop. For example:
...
while (*s++ = *ct++)
;
return s;

Hi,
I am trying to use RasGetCustomAuthData() function. this is giving required out put for admin user. But not working correctly for non admin user. Can any one suggest a way out?
Thanks in advance.

I use in my program MFC to download files from the internet, and I want to know if it will work through an authenticating proxy server.
This is my CInternetSession object:
m_pInternetSession = new CInternetSession("Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0");
And this is CInternetSession constructor from MFC sources.
#define PRE_CONFIG_INTERNET_ACCESS INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG
.................................
CInternetSession(LPCTSTR pstrAgent = NULL,
DWORD_PTR dwContext = 1,
DWORD dwAccessType = PRE_CONFIG_INTERNET_ACCESS,
LPCTSTR pstrProxyName = NULL,
LPCTSTR pstrProxyBypass = NULL,
DWORD dwFlags = 0);
So it uses INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG by default.
And this is written about INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG in MSDN:
Use INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG to instruct your application to retrieve the configuration from the registry
So does that mean that my program will correctly load any proxy settings that were set for internet explorer and how can I check that? I've never really used proxies, so I'm at a loss here.

How can I check if it works? I myself don't connect through a proxy, this issue happens with a client.
Is there any way I can use a public proxy to make a test?

I think you can make Fiddler[^] act as a proxy that requires authentication. You could test it with that?
Fiddler's an incredibly useful tool to have anyway if you're doing lower-level web development, as you are - it's like Visual Studio's debugger, but for web traffic!

Thanks for the link. I installed Fiddler, and I see that it has set my connection settings to use proxy at 127.0.0.1:8888, so it should be working. But I couldn't find any option to make it issue authentification challenges (I checked in Tools->Fiddler Options)

It might need scripting (if it's possible) - have a look at this page[^]

Thanks for your help, it worked. I now get an auth. request when I start Internet Explorer, and I found where the problem with our app is. Btw it didn't need scripting, there was a menu entry "Rules->Require Proxy Authentification".

As an alternative to Fiddler, Squid[^] is a well-respected web proxy that (may be) easy to install and configure. It supports authentication (including HTTP Basic and Windows NTLM), so would probably make a good simulation of your customer's scenario (hey - they might use Squid, in which case you could use their configuration to guide you possibly?).

ok, so i have a dialog, which i'll call CMainDlg.
CMainDlg has a regular CSplitterWnd with two columns.
the splitter has two CWnd derived objects in it, which i'll call CNewWnd
so here's how i created them:
(inside CMainDlg's onInitDialog)
CCreateContext* con = new CCreateContext();<br />
con->m_pNewViewClass = RUNTIME_CLASS(CNewWnd);<br />
<br />
splitter.CreateStatic( this, 1, 2, WS_VISIBLE);<br />
splitter.CreateView(0,0, con->m_pNewViewClass, CSize(200, 200), con);<br />
splitter.CreateView(0,1, con->m_pNewViewClass, CSize(200, 200), con);
that creates the splitters, and the stuff inside them, everything works perfectly, except for the fact that i can't seem to catch the messages from the CNewWnd using ON_NOTIFY
so the problem is, ON_NOTIFY requires the DlgCtrlID like this:
ON_NOTIFY(NM_CLICK, IDD_DLG, func)
but i dont have that value cause the CNewWnd objects are created dynamically
i tried using SetDlgCtrlID() on the CNewWnd objects but it seems to crash the splitter
i also tried sending custom ids using SendMessage but it's not getting caught
(inside CMainDlg)
ON_NOTIFY(NM_CLICK, 15, func)<br />
splitter.GetPane(0, 0)->m_customid = 15;
(inside CNewWnd)
GetOwner->SendMessage(WM_NOTIFY, (WPARAM) m_customid, (LPARAM)hdr);
any suggestions? thanks

It's been a while but I think you want to be notified of WM messages from a CView. NM messages are sent from specific controls.

When we compile a C/C++ program we get the object code.
Now my doubt is :
When the object code is executed after transferring into the main memory what is it :
1. Is it a PROGRAM or
2. IS it a process....
I got really confused today in my vivas today cause of my examiner....

A program in execution is called "Process". A program is what you call as .exe. That would also call as an application.
So Program, process, Application all would mean same.

Also, You don't execute an object code. Your object code gets through linker to make it executable code. .exe

Another thing to add is that object code cannot be executed.
It has to be linked by a linker into an executable before it can be executed.
