I figured it out. You must CreateInstance on 'Connection' not '_Connection' even though it does not show up in intellisense. I will post the new code to help anyone else who has this problem.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
BOOL ADODB_OpenDatabase(HWND hWnd)
{
ADODB::_ConnectionPtr conn;
HRESULT hr;
BOOL bRet = FALSE;
int err;
hr = CoInitialize(NULL);
if(FAILED(hr))
{ MessageBox(hWnd, "CoInitialize() failed", "OpenDatabase", MB_OK|MB_TOPMOST);
goto FINISHED;
}
// Create connection.............................................
hr = conn.CreateInstance(__uuidof(ADODB::Connection));
if(FAILED(hr))
{ err = HRESULT_CODE(hr);
ErrorMessage("Failed to create connection", "OpenDatabase", err);
goto FINISHED;
}
// Success.......................................................
bRet = TRUE;
// Cleanup.......................................................
FINISHED:
conn = NULL;
CoUninitialize();
return bRet;
}
One more reason I don't like oop or com.
Thanks

Hello,
I need to start working in Javascript for the first time.... it seems pretty straight forward. Right now, I have VC++ and Dreamweaver, should I get the J++ or is there another Java Script development environment that you suggest?
thanks!

I have used Spy++ to obtain the handle of a Window Panel and TreeView. I now want to use this handle to grab the tree. I don't understand how to do this ?? Any suggestions.
Once I grab the tree I want to be able to store this tree in a file.
Could someone please give me some direction here

Look at CTreeCtrl::Attach(...); and CTreeCtrl::Detach(...);

CFile
Most of the member functions have examples, Open most likely has the most thorough example.
See CFile::modeNoTruncate flag for appending data to files.

The best way is to use standard C++ most of the time. If you google ifsteam or ofstream, you're bound to find some references.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to pass a
pointer to a double array (1 dimensional)
to a C function.
Declaring array as: double xx[100];
Declaring func. int process( double *input[] )
Calling func. as one of the following:
process ( xx );
process ( &xx[0] );
I get various "can't convert, can't recast"
error messages from the compiler.
I have also tried declaring a double pointer and
pointing address of index zero of the array to the
double pointer - no luck either.
Using Visual Studio/Visual C 6.0
Many thanks,
Robert

int process(double *input)
double xx[100];
xx[0] = 1.1;
xx[1] = 2.2;
xx[2] = 3.3;
xx[3] = 4.4;
...
process(xx);
|
|
|
|
|
|
Declaring array as: double xx[100];
Declaring func. int process( double *input[] )
The second one is a double pointer (pointer to an array). So, pass your array like:
process(&xx);
Best regards
Dominik
_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and
__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do?? 
(doesn't work on NT)

You can write either of these in the function:
int process ( double* input );
int process ( double input[] ); The two are equivalent, and the equivalence is an artifact of C's predecessor languages. Note that you also need a way to tell process() the size of the array, because the input parameter is just a pointer. The usual way is to add a second parameter of type size_t where you pass the number of elements in the array.

When I send a message to main thread I also have to send a string and an int.
I have to use LPARAM and WPARAM?
Here my code:
...
#define MY_WM_MESSAGE1 (WM_APP + 1)
...
ON_MESSAGE(MY_WM_MESSAGE1, OnMyMessage1)
...
LRESULT CProvaDlg::OnMyMessage1(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam){
/***
// here I want to use a string and an int sent by message
*/
return 0; // I handled this message
}
Tnx
(sorry for my english)
|
|

|

When you send the message, cast the values to WPARAM and LPARAM and then cast them back in the message handler:
// sending
TCHAR* pszValue = _T("abc");
int iValue = 42;
SendMessage(hwnd, MY_WM_MESSAGE1, (WPARAM)pszValue, (LPARAM)iValue);
// receiving
LONG CYourClass::OnMessage1(WPARAM wp, LPARAM lp)
{
TCHAR* psz = (TCHAR*)wp;
int i = (int) lp;
...
|
|
|
|
|
CString* pString = new CString(_T("Text"));
int nNumber = 100;
PostMessage(hMyWnd, MY_WM_MESSAGE1, reinterpret_cast<WPARAM>(pString), reinterpret_cast<LPARAM>(nNumber));
The string must be allocated on the heap, otherwise it will bomb on you when it goes out of scope.
You'll need to free the memory for it when the OnMyMessage1 is received.
in OnMyMessage1...
CString* pString = reinterpret_cast<CString*>(wParam);
int nNumber = reinterpret_cast<int>(lParam);
...
delete pString;

Yes, as other have just suggested you may cast your int and string to wparam and lparam repectively.
But what are you going to do if you will need to pass more data than do not fit in two variables later? I'd suggest to declare a struct, that would contain any information you need to pass with a message. This has one long tern advantage - if the code to be tweaked sometime later, tweaking will not affect function signatures and the app's architecture.
<br />
struct MYMESSAGEDATA<br />
{<br />
int nInteger;<br />
char* nString;<br />
};<br />
<br />
...<br />
...<br />
MYMESSAGEDATA* pData = new MYMESSAGEDATA;<br />
pData->nInteger = 1;<br />
pData->nString = "string";<br />
...<br />
...<br />
<br />
::SendMessage(hwnd, msg, NULL, (WPARAM)pData); <br />
<br />
...<br />
LRESULT CProvaDlg::OnMyMessage1(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)<br />
{ <br />
MYMESSAGEDATA* pIncomingData = (MYMESSAGEDATA*)lParam;<br />
<br />
<br />
...<br />
...<br />
<br />
delete pIncomingData;<br />
<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />
As you can see in above example, you have a spare wParam which could be used to pass, for example, ID of the sender of the message, consider it as another advantage of this approach.

Sounds similiar to WM_COPYDATA

I need to know if there is any source code that has implemented tree view and MDI association just like windows explorer.But i need to draw graphical data on the windows.So any articles or source code that has this feature.
I have implemented the same but iam facing huge memory problem and deletion of
tree nodes and their mapping to the MDI Windows has been done tediously but not stable.
So any source code available with that complies to MDI doc -view architecture.
Thanx in advance

I want to connect a second mouse to the computer (XP). This mouse should have its own cursor and I want full control of it i.e. all mouse events must be captured and handled by my application regardless of the cursor positition and which application is active.
I have tried with DirectInput but this does not work since in XP all attached mouse devices are treated as the system mouse. I have also tried Raw Input but this is dependent of the windows message WM_INPUT and can thus only capture mouse events generated when my application is active.
Do I need to write a mouse driver or is there a simpler solution?
Thanks in advance,
Christian

Think about what would happen if that were possible. What would GetMessagePos() and GetCursorPos() return?

hi all,
I want to use C# to interop with the shell extension, for example the DLL from this code(http://www.codeproject.com/shell/shellextguide1.asp[^]) using pinvoke.
Can I define my own STDAPI in the DLL?
how the STDAPI controls the DllMain?
The final objective I want to archieve is to use C# to control the DLL to change the menuitem name of the context menu, but is it possible?
Thank you

Have you verified that this file exists on the development machine? Do you get a similar error when compiling for "Release" instead of "Debug" mode?
