That still isn't going to solve the problem of excessive network traffic. To actually get notifications (instead of constantly polling), check out FindFirstChangeNotification and ReadDirectoryChangesW.

Do those work for network drives? I am aware of them, but thought they only worked for local drives, or only worked for some network drives or something. Documentation doesn't say anything, so it's probably just a bit of dust in my brain masquerading as a memory.

I want to Create a logical(not physical)Bad sectors on hard disks!
Is it possible?
If possible what i should know?

I think
A fabricated ECC could be a solution
Originally ECC is made by automatically...
I cannot get a specific answer to insert ECC artificially.
Let`s consider it together...
Thanks Advance.

Hi
How can I implement a MDI application without using document? Can I do "File -> New -> CSplitframe(Child Window) -> CView"?
Thanks,
|

Without a document, what will the view be rendering? Not that it's impossible, but the only time I've seen projects without a document, they were also without a view.

My understanding is that the View does not need the document.
I found a article in codeproect site which talks about SDI without document.
Thanks,

Hello, everyone !
Is there a garbage collector developed for C++ Builder 6 that works properly ?
If so, where can I download it ?
Thanks in advance and looking forward to news.

Garbage collectors are for sissies, real men use malloc. If you are in a sissie mood switch to Java or C# programming.
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

There is no possibility to switch to Java or C# where the garbage collector is not needed.
The company where I work only develops in Borland C++ Builder 6.
That's why I need a garbage collector for BCB 6.
Does anyone have a serious reply to my problem ?

Didn't you googled yet, did you [^]?

But why do you need one? I have never heard of a technical requirement for GC, only political requirements. The only reason I ask is in case you have real requirements that would be satisfied using Placement new.

Garbage collectors don't work well outside a managed environment and especially in C/C++. Using smart pointers and just writing classes correctly gets you most the way there. While the above reply may be sarcastic, it's correct: if you want garbage collection, you should be using a managed environment.
(I think garbage collection is way overrated. The biggest problems I encounter in a related area are resource leaks, not memory leaks, and garbage collection does a piss poor job at that, especially in .NET. There is too much terrible code out there where developers say "the garbage collector will handle it".)
Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine.

You could try the Boehm GC[^] - I've never used it, but I've seen good things written about it - and Hans Boehm is involved with efforts to add GC to the C++ Standard (NOT in C++0x, though).

I've downloaded the Boehm GC but I don't know how to use it in BCB6.
Also I've downloaded the library LibGC from this website (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/agm_libgc.aspx). This library seems easy to be used.
However when I include the gc.hpp in the BCB project and try to compile, it shows me the following error:
[C++ Error] gc.hpp(101): E2238 Multiple declaration for 'Object::operator delete(void *)'
[C++ Error] gc.hpp(84): E2344 Earlier declaration of 'Object::operator delete(void *)'
Does anyone know how to fix theses errors ?

Look at this interesting thing...
If I minimize the program which is using about 16000K of memory, the memory usage reduces to about 4000K.
Is the Windows Task Manager reliable to check the memory usage ?
Somebody told me that it is not the correct place to check it because the windows task manager doesn't show the memory usage of an application. It only shows its "working set", which is the memory reserved by Windows to my application.
He also told me that the Windows changes the "working set" as it believes that it is needed to review the balance.
Do you guys suppose it is correct ?
If not, how can I measure the real memory usage of my application ?
And how could I check if my application has any kind of memory leak issue ? Is there any tool to check it for C++ Builder ?

I agree.
The outside world knows how much memory the app holds, not how much it uses, the app itself (and its GC, if it has one) is the only one to know that.

If you were using Visual C++, I'd point you at the C runtime or MFC leak detection support, or CodeProject's very own Visual Leak Detector[^]. As you're not...mmmmm. Tricky. Commercial options, obviously - Purify[^] or BoundsChecker[^] or AQTime[^] (memory checker AND profiler!). If you were using Linux, there's valgrind[^]. OS X? MallocDebug, leaks[^] or Instruments[^].
BCB on WIndows...mmmm - I really don't know!

I've downloaded the trial version of AQTime v6 to check the memory usage and I've noticed that the item "Reserved Virtual Memory" ( Class Name column ) related to the app ( Module Name column ) raises constantly during the execution of the app.
May it be a problem related to program code or it is normal ?
I'm using the Allocation Profiler on AQTime v6.

Could be - but I can think of scenarios where it's perfectly normal behaviour. I've never used AQTime, so I don't really feel qualified to comment...

I have a problem similar! What do you do to resolve?
Do you have any threads in your project ? Because in my project have some threads and data base connection with postgres.
Thanks!
