Actually, the third party library itself is entirely compiled with __stdcall convention and therefore the header file does not have a __stdcall for the declarations.
Now, if I am to use this library in my project, how can I re-declare the function prototypes specifying __stdcall for each of the functions. Or is there any other workaround rather than changing my project settings to __stdcall.
Thanks in advance.

How will I be able to create a Installer of my Application. There might be some applications out there about creating your own installer but how about creating your own. Do you guys have any idea on how to create your do-it-yourself installer and be able to create shortcut icons (desktop, start menu) for your application? Just wondering if it is possible. thanx

It's obviously possible, any installer app does just that within a framework. I use an installer package though, there are plenty of free ones to do msi installs ( I ended up buying the full version of mine tho ) The one I use is called advanced installer.

I've tried advanced installer and found it cool, then the idea of creating my own installer interface came up.

Just hoping if I could do it, but I think I have to use the advance installer anyway

Do you mean code your own installation program? Seems to be re-inventing the wheel to me but if that is what you want to do, then this [^]might give you a starting off point.
If what you really want is a free program that will create a setup for you then this [^]might be what you are looking for.

How will I be able to know the complete path of the tasks on the task manager that are running under windows 2000 and above?
Using CreateToolHelp32Snapshot, Process32First and Process32Next displays the information of a file that are running on your taskbar. Windows ME and below displays the complete path of the source exe file which allows you to get to the source and do something about it like checking its CRC but Windows NT, XP only displays the filename without its complete path. How will I be able to know the complete path of the exe file that are running on the taskbar? Thanx in advance

Are you referring to the szExePath member of the MODULEENTRY32 structure? If not, you should be.

its can be accessed through .szExeFile
hProcessSnap = CreateToolhelp32Snapshot( TH32CS_SNAPPROCESS, 0 );
if(hProcessSnap != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
pe32.dwSize = sizeof( PROCESSENTRY32 );
if(Process32First( hProcessSnap, &pe32 ))
{
do
{
cout << pe32.szExeFile << endl; // displays the exe filename...
//in NT and XP, filename alone while in winME and below, Complete path
}while(Process32Next(hProcessSnap, &pe32));
}
CloseHandle( hProcessSnap );
}

I'm full aware of this, which is why I suggested using the MODULEENTRY32 structure. It will provide you with the full path.

Looking for a way to detect whether or not my VC++ code is being run from a debugger (or attached to by the debugger). I need to detect this programatically, from withing the code being debugged.
This would be regardless of compile mode (i.e. debug or release)
Thanks in advance,

Does anyone have a clue how to update the current window you are in, the GUI that is built with Visual Studio.net MFC foundation class. The problem is I have a timer function that triggers and can take a minute or so to complete. Everything works fine unless I open say calculator, then close it. There is a hole in the GUI until the timer function completes. Is there a way of updating the window while inside the timer function. I am somewhat new to using Windows and MFC and I was wrong in assuming Windows handles it for you. I thought the purpose of using MFC was it would handle all this for you.

This would be better asked in the VC++ forum...not the Lounge.
Picture a huge catholic cathedral. In it there's many people, including a gregorian monk choir. You know, those who sing beautifully. Then they start singing, in latin, as they always do: "Ad hominem..."

This was in the Lounge when I saw it. Chris must have moved it.

The screen will not update because the thread that is doing your calculation is busy and this is the same thread that draws your screen. You can solve this problem in several ways. One way is to do your calculation in a second thread.
A second way is to use PumpMessage as in the following article:

Folks
What is the right way to handle this warning:
warning C4018: '>=' : signed/unsigned mismatch
I am comparing the out of two functions, both of which aren't mine, and one returns int and the other returns unsigned. I know they both return positive integers practically - so whats the way to get rid of this compiler warning?
Thanks!

If you are certain that there will not be any range problems, you can cast one of the variables to the other's type.
if( DWORD( iValue ) >= dwValue ) <br />
if( iValue >= int( dwValue ) )
This will not work correctly if one of the variables contains a value that has the high bit set (e.g. a 32-bit integer value greater than 2,147,483,647).
Peace!

Hello,
I am trying to write a filter which reads an XML file, applies some modifications, and then writes the result to a file. I am using the MSXML lib and visual studio 6.0.
The solution I have found is to read the XML file (SAXXMLReader), apply the modifications (SAXXMLFilter), and then writes the result to a file (MXXMLWriter). Finding examples and docs about this is not easy.
For know, I found an example about connecting the reader to the writer and one about connecting a "contentHandler" to the reader. But I did not found much about how to put a content handler in between the reader and the writer.
All I found by now about the SAXXMLFilter, is :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/1100/xml/
which is in VB, and tranlating is not an easy step for me, as I am a newby in the Windows coding.
Is there a best way that using a filter ? Is there an already implemented XMLFilter to which I could just plug "myContentHandler" and send the result to the MXXMLWriter ? Does anyone knows where I could find an example in c++ with a SAXXMLFilter ?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Regards,
Pedro_
