There are many ways of packaging up your software, from the professional InstallShield/Wise[^], to the free InnoSetup[^]. There are sure to be a lot of others if you search around the net.

Hello!
Try to create (vc70) new project "setup and deployment projects" and see what are the posibilities.
In vc60 there is an application called devenv.exe I think... it allows creation of msi files (I used it some time ago)
Hope that it helped

Hi,
I want to write a application in C++ who can do the following:
- make a telephone call (already done)
- accept/receive a telephone call
- capture the telephone number
The application have to listen (like sockets) if a some is calling me.
But who can I do this ?
Some simple code example would be very appreciated !
Thanks, JohnX

Do a search on MSDN for "TAPI Samples". There are plenty that do this. Or do a google, and you'll find some too.
To start you off, http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dntapi/html/msdn_ctapic.asp[^]
The hardest part about TAPI is making sure your hardware supports it correctly.

I am involved in a network monitoring project where I have completed a multiple client chat application by establishing a connection between the client and server using sockets.I would like the server to know what application is being run on the client so that it can monitor the activities of the client.For eg,when I open VC++ to do some thing at the client,at the server I should be able to know this.Please can some one help me about how to proceed to do this.

Heres an approach
1.- Have your server app send a request to the client side app for the names of running procesess. do this via standard UDP sockets.
2.- On the client app, and when requested by the server, You need to ennumerate the procesess (or maybe active windows would do) on the client. Use EnumWindows() or EnumProcesess() functions to do it.
3.- the Client app builds an array of strings for the names of running procesess, and sends it to the server app. also do this via sockets, tho it might be trickier than it seems. You might need to design some sort of class or structure that contains the total data lenght and the data itself.
4.- (the easy part) the server gets the data from the client, and displays the list of procesess.
HTH.

The Process Status API (PSAPI) has some methods that will let you enumerate all processes and obtain specific module information. This API is part of the Platform SDK and is declared in <psapi.h> Is this what you're looking for?

Hi all,
I recently installed Visual Studio 6.0, followed by the January 2004 edition of MSDN. Unfortunately MSDN did not integrate itself with VC++ or VB. I'm assuming that MSDN is designed to be used with VStudio .Net, but is there any way I can hook it into 6.0? At the moment I just get a popup telling me "The MSDN collection does not exist. Please reinstall MSDN."
Thanks,
Gary

Thank you.

Are you referring to C++ being portable across various operating systems? If so, the answer is yes, as long as the libraries and compiler that you use are supported on the various operating systems that you want your program(s) to run on.
I hope this answers your question appropriately.

I know many projects that are written under c(not c++) so that they can make it portable. but c loses the powerfull concept of OO. Does name mangaleing has any effect so that C++ code can not be make portable.
Thanx for your answer.

Name mangling doesnt make C++ any less portable - its the C++ code you compile, not the name-mangled output. People probably chose C for the reason that there were more C compilers in the past. Such a decision has no real bearing nowadays

Theorically, C/C++ are independant and run on many machines whatever the source.
Actually, if your program call some specific libraries as unistd.h (standard UNIX functions) this is not recognized by all the compilers (Visual C++ don't know unistd.h for example).
If you want to be as independant as you can, use the standard library of the language, use the native in capital lettres (as INT, UINT, BOOL)..., use TCHAR for unicode or ansi (depending on a #define).

I am working on a project which I am wanting to use the list class template in the C++ standard library. How would I retrieve an object from the list once it is added (in the most efficent way)?
For instance:
[...]<br />
<br />
typedef list<MyObject> ObjList;<br />
<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
ObjList obList;<br />
MyObject* pObj = 0;<br />
<br />
for(int i = 0; i <= 5; ++i)<br />
{<br />
pObj = new MyObject();<br />
obList.push_back(*pObj);<br />
}<br />
<br />
<br />
[...]<br />
<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance!
Happy Programming!

With a list you can only move the iterator forward or backward one node at a time. So to get the 3rd node you would:
ObjList::iterator it = obList.begin();
for (int i = 0; i < 3; ++i)
++it;
MyObject *pMy3rdObject = (*it);If you need random access your objects consider using a vector instead.

I have been thinking about the possibility of using the vector<T> class as you mentioned as well. I guess I will be doing some monitored testing with both to see which one will suite my program's needs the best the most efficently. Thanks for your response.

The above will not compile. I don't know why at the moment. Any ideas?
Below is the error given:
error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'std::allocator<_Ty>::value_type' to 'MyObject *'

Sorry, I forgot the cast
MyObject *pMy3rdObject = (MyObject *)(*it);

Hi all, here´s a "tricky" question.
let´s say i plan to use serveral threads on my app, so i write a class to wrap threads, its header could look something like this (in pseudo-code):
class CThread
{
public:
BOOL Start(); // called to create the thread
void End(); // called to terminate the thread
static DWORD WINAPI MyThreadProc(LPVOID pData); // the threadproc
};
and in my app i could create several of these at any given time, like:
void WhatEver()
{
CThread threads[5];
for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
threads[i].Start();
}
to my understanding, when a class has a static member function, one and ONLY ONE "instance" of that function´s code exsists in my application as soon as the app starts running, even if there are several instances of that class present, they all "share" the same Function code (right?)
so, there are (in the above code) 5 instances of the CThread class, but there is ONLY one instance of the MyThreadProc() function, so here´s what i dont understand, ¿what if the threads do some time consuming operation?, ¿how can threads[1] start "running" if threads[0] has´nt finished yet, and thread[2] do its stuff while thread[1] is busy and so on? or to put it in other words, if theres only one instance of MyThreadProc(), ¿how can it be used at the same time by all threads?
Thanks for reading!

static means different things when applied to a member function versus a member variable. static on a method means that the method does not receive a this pointer. There's no concept of "instances" for methods - the compiler generates the code for the method, and threads run that code whenever you call the method.
So you can have many threads calling the same method with no problems. (Of course, you have to protect any data from simultaneous access if necessary, but that's another topic altogether.)

Hi Mike, and thanks for your answer, what i ment by "instances" of methods was actually a "copy" of it on memory during program execution, NE way, i know now that each thread has its own space, and there for receives its own "copy" of the function.
Thanks!
