You need to check the return value from MessageBox and execute DestroyWindow conditionally on the user response:
case WM_KEYDOWN:
if (wParam == VK_ESCAPE)
{
if (MessageBox(NULL, L"Are you sure you want to exit?", L"My Project", MB_YESNO |MB_ICONQUESTION) == IDYES)
DestroyWindow(hWnd);
}
return 0;L u n a t i c F r i n g e

Yes, it's pretty obvious he didn't even step though the offending code, although he knew exactly where it was, with the debugger and ask himself why nothing happens between putting up the message box and then exiting the program. Maybe he thought the message box would take care of it for him? But then, why put in your own exit call?

Hello,
My main goal is to convert Matlab functions into .dll and then import that into a program called Metatrader. But my shorter goal is to actually be able to compile the .cpp made from Matlab, and I am unable to do so for some reason. Here are the details:
Although the functions I want to import are much more complex, for the sake of the problem, I've created 2 sample functions - AddTwo(x,y) and MultiplyTwo(x,y) in Matlab.
function output = AddTwo(x,y)
output = x + y;
function output = MultiplyTwo(x,y)
output = x * y;
Next, I compile them using mcc command (using Visual C++ 6.0 as C++ compiler).
mcc -W cpplib:libmatrix -T link:lib AddTwo MultiplyTwo
This got me several files, like the .cpp, .h, and .dll files. If I import the .dll file into Metatrader and try to use it now, it gives me 127 error (problem with .def/function names) or a critical error (crash when function names are corrected). So my goal here is to go inside the .cpp file and edit it to make it compatible with Metatrader and then compile it. The problem is that even when I don't edit it I can't seem to compile the basic file.
On the side, these are the requirements of the .dll file and exported functions to work properly in Metatrader:
Your DLL and the exported functions must fullfill the following requirements to be used from metatrader:
function name:
* not mangled
calling convention:
* stdcall
possible function arguments (when passed by value):
* 32bit integer
* double
* Pointer to nullterminated string
possible function arguments (when passed by reference):
* Pointer to array of
o 32 bit integer
o double
* no intergers by reference due to bug(?) in mql compiler
* no doubles by reference due to bug(?) in mql compiler
possible function return values:
* 32bit integer
* double
* Pointer to nullterminated string (contents will be copied immediately)
I am not completely familiar with these things (the top two I kind of understand).
So my primary goals are to:
1. Be able to compile the .cpp file in the first place
2. Make the .cpp file fulfill the above requirements for Metratrader.
Now, what I've done so far trying to compile the unedited .cpp file is include the necessary .lib files - mclmcr.lib mclmcrrt.lib - from Matlab's extern/lib/win32/microsoft folders. This took away many LINK2001 errors. But now I don't know what to do and when I try to build the .dll I get the following error message:
--------------------Configuration: libmatrix - Win32 Debug--------------------
Compiling...

I am not very familiar with using Visual C++ 6.0
Also, because I can't attach files here, I will post the libmatrix.cpp and libmatrix.h code here. But you can generate these by making the Matlab functions and converting them via mcc.

Hi,
But mbuild from Matlab is able to create the .dll file fine. Then why does this .cpp file not have the #pragma? And how can I tell which libs are needed?
Is that the only error?

0. Please start the VS wizard to create a DLL project
(now you product is an EXE - see the last output line)
and then fill it with your additional code.
1. Please start the "Find in files" tool (find in *.c; *.cpp; *.lib)
to find the variable __MCC_libmatrix_component_data in MATLABs dirs -
you could try to add the found *.cpp or *.lib in to your DLL project.
Good luck
PS. The answer for your why is:
MATLAB has the __MCC_libmatrix_component_data inside (not as an extern)Check your definition of Irrationality[ ^]

Long post. I think I read more questions in it than you actually asked.
I have no personal experience with MatLab or MetaTrader, so at some point here I might be indulging in a bit of speculation. (You do know about speculation, no? )
skyhr wrote: LIBCD.lib(crt0.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _main
The references to crt0.obj and unresolved external symbol _main sound to me like the build configuration is trying to pull in the start up code for a standalone program rather than the DLL that you are trying for. Are you sure that you have your project configured for a DLL and not an exe? Another possibility: I have seen comments that this can be caused by calling for _ATL_MIN_CRT in your project settings. I believe that for your purposes, you will not be using ATL at all, so check your project settings for that.

First a side note. There are several ways that you tell a linker what to include: entries in a project file, command line arguments, and embedded directives in a code module. The pragma mentioned by the earlier poster is the latter method. When you cleared up most of your unresolved externals by including a couple of libs, you probably did it via a project file. It works just fine that way too. The matlab build probably used the command line. So, the reason matlab could build successfully without the pragma directives was that it used a different method to tell the linker about the library. They are all legitimate approaches.
Now, I was going to say that this unresolved external just meant that you were missing another lib file. Then I looked closer and decided that I was wrong. Notice the libmatrix in the symbol which is your name, not matlab's. Also note the line extern mclComponentData __MCC_libmatrix_component_data; in you cpp file. This says that there is such a thing, but it is either being defined later or in a different file. Further, the matlab site states: Encrypts MATLAB code so that it cannot be viewed or modified. My current theory is that the matlab compiler is taking your code, mucking with it, and sticking it in another file. This one just contains the interface. You said, "This got me several files, like the .cpp, .h, and .dll files." Is there another file? Maybe even a .obj file? (but not, I think, plain libmatrix.obj)
Hopefully this will help you get a build. I think there will be issues dealing with the Metatrader interface, but that is the next step. I think it will also require more information.Please do not read this signature.

The snippets as follows:

dlg.DoModal();
Now,how to pass data to the modal dialog,for example modify the title of the modal dialog.Thx!I am not a genius, but shed more sweat!

Override OnInitDialog and change any values there. If you need the values to be set before instantiating the dialog then add class members and set their values when you first create the dialog object.txtspeak is the realm of 9 year old children, not developers. Christian Graus

You could extend the constructor of the dialog
to accept the passed parameter(s) by dialogs member(s).
As Richard said,
all visual things should be apllied at OnInitDialog(),
as the m_hWnd is already valid,
for example:
if (m_cszPassedTitle.GetLength()) {
SetWindowText(m_cszPassedTitle);

The other alternative to the above suggestions, is that you define your own message, and use that to signal to your
child window that you've got some data for it.
I use the following code to pass an image to a child window.
IDC_COPYIMAGE is the message I defined. (#define IDC_COPYIMAGE 1010) There just needs to be an appropriate handler in the windowproc for the child dialog.
if (myWad.getLumpSize(myItem.iItem) == 4096)
{
flatData = (char*)myWad.loadResource(resNum, &resLen);
pal = (char*) myWad.loadResource(195, &resLen);
darkMap = (char*) myWad.loadResource(1, &resLen);
tmpImg = createImageFromFlat(flatData, pal, darkMap);
delete pal;
delete flatData;
delete darkMap;
SendMessage(imgChildHWND, IDC_COPYIMAGE, 0, (LPARAM)tmpImg);
DeleteObject(tmpImg);
}

I want to create a modeless dialog as main window. But I got error when calling function CreateDialog:
Unhandled exception at 0x7e424d76 in ModelessTest.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x00000014.
This is my code:
BOOL CModelessTestApp::InitInstance()
{
CWinApp::InitInstance();
SetRegistryKey(_T("Local AppWizard-Generated Applications"));
CModelessTestDlg dlg;
m_pMainWnd = &dlg;
LPTSTR szAppName = MAKEINTRESOURCE(dlg.IDD);
MSG msg ;
WNDCLASS wndclass ;
memset(&wndclass, 0, sizeof(WNDCLASS));
wndclass.style = CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW;
wndclass.lpfnWndProc = ::DefWindowProc;
wndclass.cbWndExtra = DLGWINDOWEXTRA;
wndclass.hInstance = AfxGetInstanceHandle();
wndclass.hIcon = LoadIcon(IDR_MAINFRAME);
wndclass.hCursor = LoadCursor(IDC_ARROW);
wndclass.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_BTNFACE + 1);
wndclass.lpszClassName = dlg.IDD_CLASS;
if (!AfxRegisterClass(&wndclass)) {
TRACE("Class Registration Failed\n");
MessageBox (NULL, TEXT ("This program requires Windows NT!"), szAppName, MB_ICONERROR);
return 0 ;
}
HWND hDlg = ::CreateDialog(GetModuleHandle(NULL), szAppName, NULL, NULL);
ShowWindow(hDlg, SW_SHOW);
while (GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0)) {
if (!IsDialogMessage(hDlg, &msg)) {
TranslateMessage(&msg) ;
DispatchMessage(&msg) ;
}
}
return FALSE;
}
The error is at this line:
HWND hDlg = ::CreateDialog(GetModuleHandle(NULL), szAppName, NULL, NULL);
But If I use the MFC way to create the modeless dialog, there is no error. For example, in above code, these codes:
HWND hDlg = ::CreateDialog(GetModuleHandle(NULL), szAppName, NULL, NULL);
ShowWindow(hDlg, SW_SHOW);
are replaced with:
dlg.Create(dlg.IDD);
dlg.ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
HWND hDlg = dlg.m_hWnd;
it will manage to create the dialog.
Anyone know what's the cause?
Note: I'm using VC++ 2005
Thx in advance.modified on Saturday, March 6, 2010 5:13 AM
