i think you need to do some settings in the control panel to use your store database. btw are you using MFC?

How to open a document using cpp

I have to open a given document, without calling the application which opens it.
Semiliar to double clicking a document which opens it with the attached application (but without realy double click, just call some windows API for open document...)

Thanks

Confused in choosing a declaration over other

Hi,

I am confused regarding choosing one declaration from a set of two. I could not decided which one should be preferred over other and why it should be preferred. Please see the declarations below and let me know out of (I) and (II) which declaration is more preferred and why.

(I)
#if defined (UNICODE) && defined (_UNICODE)
typedef std::wstring _tstring;
#else
typedef std::string _tstring;
#endif

(II)
#if defined (UNICODE) && defined (_UNICODE)
#define _tstring std::wstring
#else
typedef _tstring std::string;
#endif

Thanks and Regards

I would choose typedef. You may google a bit [^] to find comparisons.

Use the

typedef

. At least typedefs are part of the language and can be constrained by the namespacing mechanisms the language has (namespace, class, struct etc).

#defines, on the other hand, have the effect of performing a global search and replace over your code, which can causes horrors to occur. The C++ FAQs say it[^] quite well.

Difference between CWaitCursor SetCursor(LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_WAIT));

What is the difference between

CWaitCursor wait;

and

SetCursor(LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_WAIT));

and at what situation/ advantage and disadvantage between them

CWaitCursor belongs to the MFC library.
The SetCursor that you did was Windows API calls.

MFC also has CCmdTarget::BeginWaitCursor and CCmdTarget::EndWaitCursor methods to do the same.

MapViewofFile fails because memory not being continuous.

Hi,

The MapViewOfFile function fails when 1gb of memory is mapped , it seems the memory is not continuous which is causing the problem.

Is there any way to overcome this problem.

Thanks

You have to map only part of the file at a time. To load more of the file unmap the current view and map the new view.

This is an excerpt from MSDN -

For files that are larger than the address space, you can only map a small portion of the file data at one time. When the first view is complete, you can unmap it and map a new view.

To obtain the size of a view, use the VirtualQuery function.

Hi I need help creating a user interface which would display all the certificates stored in MyStore. I want to display certificate information such as Issued by, issued to, and expiry date in different columns and when i click a specific certificate, the certificate should open up. I was able to display all those information in the console but I don't know how to go on about doing this in a GUI. Help would be most appreciated Sigh | :sigh:

Memory Alignment - 32 bit

Richard Andrew x647-Jun-09 17:16

Richard Andrew x64

The 32-bit "Interlocked...." functions say that their parameters must be aligned on "a 32-bit boundary," otherwise they behave unpredictably.

Do I need to worry about this in the ordinary case of declaring member variables in my C++ classes with VS 2008?

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
