create a process from a process and have it not in the same security context

is this possible?

I launch a process from my main process and when the second process attempts to use DLLs that the first is using, the second program crashes. However, when I click the icon for the second application while the first application is running, it accesses these DLLs just fine. I have used CreateProcess and ShellExecute to launch and both provide the same outcome. If CreateProcessAsUser is the solution, will it work for creating the process as the same user who launched the first process?

The answer is yes for your question. Smile | :)

But I geuss it is not the solution for your situation.
Is the platform vista? If is that so, some issues are around UAC...
Is it the fact the reason of crash that is origined from some of security context errors?

You should be able to give the new process a different security context by using lpProcessAttributes->lpSecurityDescriptor.

Consider the following code in C:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
int n;
clrscr();
scanf("%s",n);
printf("%s");
getch();
}

Question: The above program amazingly reads a string and prints it but I don't know how/ Plz help me.
Plz specify the working of scanf and printf in the above program. n is not given as an address to the scanf function and printf contain only format strings.

Awaiting a good reply Sniff | :^)

In the scanf call, scanf will take n to be a char* value, so will store the string read in at the address given by n. You're just 'lucky' that n's value is equivalent to a writeable address.

The printf call? Well, as printf is a variadic funtion, it'll look up the stack from the pushed format string, looking for argument values. The next value on the stack above the format string is (you guessed it!) n, so printf will see n, interpret it as a char* value and print the string at that address.

Hi,
I am working on MFC Asynchronoussocket program, I could able to successfully send and receive messages between one to one client and server using accept, receive classes. But when i am trying to connect multiple client to server, my application crashes. And I also wonder, if I able to accept multiple client, how would I match the send and receive messages between different clients and server.
Could anyone please help me out!!!

Thanks
Reddy

I've only looked at the basics of this quite some time ago, but the structure that accept() populates on the server has a sin_addr member. Can you pass that to inet_ntoa()?

Thanks david, I solved it - now I could able to establish mulitple client with single server, but I am facing problem in receving messages from clients. Server couldnt receive the message that client is sending. On client side, client is sucessfully sending the message. Could you please throw some light.
Binding i will look into it later once server start receving messages

Huge memory leak C++ C Program. [modified]

Hi.

I have a program which is creating a huge memory leak. Here is an example of my program. This is not an actual code but an example which references my program.

Class ABC
{

static int *B;
}

Class DEF{
int *MALLOC_C[20];
void Function1(int* ptr);
void Function2( );

}
ABC[10];
DEF[10];

void main()
{
int *sample=new sample();
*sample=1;
ABC* Object1[20];
DEF* Object2[20];
for(int i=0;i<20;i++) //Edited
{
Object1[i]=new ABC();
Object2[i]=new DEF();
}

for(int i=0;i<20;i++)
{
Object[i].Function1(sample);
}

for(int i=0;i<20;i++)
{
delete Object1[i];
delete Object2[i];
}

}

DEF::Function1(int *ptr)
{
ABC::B=ptr;
}
DEF::Function2()
{
for(int i=0;i<20;i++)
{MALLOC_C[i]=(int*) malloc(1000*sizeof(int) ); //Edited,Corrected
}
//DO processing on MALLOC_C

for(int i=0;i<20;i++)
free(MALLOC_c[i]);

}

This is what I am doing. What is wrong? Please help!

why is this line inside a for(i) loop and not using i?

My mistake. Its been edited.

It should have been-

Leaks maybe in this Poke tongue | ;-P

int *sample=new sample();

And below makes infinite loop Poke tongue | ;-P

for(int i=0;i<20)
{
  Object1[i]=new ABC();
  Object2[i]=new DEF();
}

If you use VC, microsoft provides some helpfull debug runtime like _CrtCheckMemory.
If you do not, make memory management library or use some like those.

Happy debug!

It was a stupid variable issue.
I was not going through the whole array

Basically I was doing the below->

for(int i=0;i<20;i++)
{
MALLOC_C[i]=(int*) malloc(1000*sizeof(int) ); //Edited,Corrected
}

for(int i=0;i<10;i++) //Notice the 10. It should have been 20
free(MALLOC_c[i]);

Have you called the document's SetModifiedFlag() method?

i have now the following Code :
When i click on the close or exit button, OnDeleteContents() will be called:

void CTest_Doc::OnDeleteContents()
{
CDocument::DeleteContents ();
CDocument::OnCloseDocument();
CDocument::SetModifiedFlag(1);
}

after that there is a heap problem???

CDocument::DeleteContents ();
CDocument::OnCloseDocument();
}

but the Prompt save message stiil not appear??

Because you are possibly calling SetModifiedFlag() too late. It needs to be called as soon as the document changes.

I am facing issue while implementing restart manager in VS 2005 MFC project. it is saying restartmanager.h is not found. I am implementing this for W2k8 and Vista OS. I am not getting information about Which VS support this. I found VS 2005 C# is supporting this.

Would it be possible to implement restart manager in VS 2005 MFC project?

You need to a) install a version of the Windows SDK that supports Restart Manager[^], b) tell VS2005 to use it (the SDK release notes[^] tell you how), and c) tell the SDK that you want to use Vista features[^].

DEBUG to RELEASE

Hi,

I'm facing some problem when trying to build my solution in Release mode(building in debug mode works fine).
My solution contains several project(10 of them are static libraries and one is the executable which uses those libraries).
One of the static libraries is the GUI implementation(MFC).
I've configured the properties of each project in release mode(e.g. use MFC as a shared DLL , use runtime library as Multi-Threaded DLL[\Md] etc.).
I've managed to compile the entire solution,but failed to link the executable.
I'm getting the following error

<br />

Hi David.

Thanks for your help,but this warning is not my problem...
I know that my problem is the errors below(LNK2001)...I just can't find the call for invalid_parameter_noinfo.
According to MSDN(relating LNK2001):

When compiling with /MD, a reference to "func" in your source becomes a reference "__imp__func" in the object since all the run-time is now held within a DLL. If you try to link with the static libraries LIBC.lib or LIBCMT.lib, you will get LNK2001 on __imp__func. If you try to link with MSVCxx.lib when compiling without /MD you will not always get LNK2001, but you will likely have other problems.

All the libraries in the solution,as well as the executable, are being compiled with /Md option(i.e runtime library is a multhi-threaded DLL).
In the linker option I specified the linker to ignore LIBC,LIBCMT and MSVCRT default libraries.
But still,I get those error...

Anything?

Thanks again,
Best regards,
Eli

Hi David,

I removed MSVCRT.lib from default libraries ignore list and it's working just fine.
