I actually did that originally but I got the aforementioned error because I was trying to free memory from another threads heap. I changed it like below and no error shows up so I guess it's cleared up but I have to clean up the code more because it was opened up to try and fix this with other methods.
CBrush * grey = new CBrush (RGB(192, 192, 192));<br />
CBrush * black = new CBrush (RGB(255, 255, 255));<br />
dc.SelectObject (grey);<br />
<br />
< drawing done here ><br />
<br />
dc.SelectObject(black);<br />
<br />
delete grey;<br />
delete black;

Well, it's the way it needs to be done, you need to work out those threading issues, I guess..

This is wrong.
CBrush * grey = new CBrush (RGB(192, 192, 192));
CBrush * black = dc.SelectObject (grey);
< drawing done here >
dc.SelectObject(black);
delete grey;
You need to grab the brush that SelectObject returns, and put it back when you're done.

I was trying to capture the outgoing brush but when I delete it, I got the error saying the memory I was deallocating wasn't mine. So, I just don't delete the black brush? Isn't that leaking memory?

Correct. You can't delete it, you need to select it back into the DC in order to avoid a leak.

No, because you don't create a black brush, and because the brush in question is left in the control of the DC, as it was at the start.

Have a look at CDC::SaveDC() ( There is also an excellent article by Joe Newcomer on this site about SaveDC(), look it up ) and also why not just use local GDI objects that go out of scope when you are done with them? saves having to mess around with new and delete.

I'll read that tonight. I haven't optimized the program for space and efficiency yet but one thing I did was to put the grey brush into the child view to be created once on construction, then used repeatedly, and deleted on deconstruction. I also have to figure out a better flow to my program but that's on my shoulders. I'm trying to optimize drawing because it's definitely the slowest part of my program.

I know how to do that in visual c++ NET but I have to use visual c++ 6.0 only. so how can I convert byte array to image(or binary) that will insert data to sql database.
STDMETHODIMP CModels::AddPicture(IUnknown* pIUnkConnection , byte* byteImage)
{
_ConnectionPtr spIConnection;
CConnection connection;
connection.GetConnectionToDB(pIUnkConnection, &spIConnection);
_bstr_t bstrCommand = "INSERT INTO MODEL VALUES ('" First Picture "', "', ?????(byteImage)how can I can convert byte array to image???)";
THROW_COM_ERROR(spIConnection->Execute(bstrCommand, NULL, adExecuteNoRecords));
bytes[] convert to image(binary)
Remember I cant use C++ .NET at all
use Visual c++ 6.0 only

Using Visual C++ 6, running some C++ code which allocates & frees some memory, usually if I've got any problems with unallocated/unfreed memory I'll get access violations, exceptions, but this time I'm getting a heap error I've never seen before:
HEAP : dedicated (0000) free list element 6fa9ae8 is marked busy
What's the difference between this and an access violation / exception?
I think it means I'm running of of heap space, as it can happens at any memory allocation in my code, but it doesn't look that way from the amount of memory my program is using?
Any tips of finding out the cause of this?

Are you using the new and delete operators?

Thanks for trying to help, I managed to fix my code.
It was new & delete operators I was using, the problem was I was overrunning a buffer.
I discovered the cause by using _heapchk to check the status of the heap, I took the code from the following link and put it at different parts of my code to find out when the heap was getting corrupted.

Hi,
I am getting boolean value from store procedure.When flag is set, it fill value 255 otherwise 0. It should be 1/0. When i tried to declared varaible type bool no data is coming and it is showing garbage.Can you please help me.
Thank
|

simple:
suppose c is what you get from the stored proc and b is the boolean you want.
just do this: b = c & 1;
cast (c & 1) to bool if needed

I believe this is the correct result as VARIANT_TRUE is defined as -1, VARIANT_FALSE is 0.
What database are you using?

Thank you for your reply. I think you are right, for interger it is showing -1 for set flag. I am using SQL server.

When exactly is the file mapped into memory updated on the disk? I thought it will be updated as and when it is updated in the memory, but the documentation of UnMapViewOfFile says "If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero, and all dirty pages within the specified range are written \"lazily\" to disk" which means the file will be written to the disk only when UnMapViewofFile is called.
Can someone clarify? Thanks.
thanks

This is saying tht UnMapViewOfFile will trigger a lazy write, but the OS may write this data at any time. For performance reasons, however, it will tend to defer this. If you must write the data, just call FlushViewOfFile().
Note, however, that by default this still does a lazy write as do all disk writes (by default.) In practice the data will be written within very few milliseconds. And before you panic, note that your hard disk has a cache and is essentially doing the same thing.
If you want more immediate writes, you must use the FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH flag when you open the file (and follow the guidelines of using that flag.)
Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine.

I posted something similar to this earlier, but I think I'm getting closer to the problem.
I wrote my own class, CFAFRecord, that is a derivative of CObject. When someone presses the button, I do something similar to
my_ObjectArray.SetSize(10);
CFAFRecord my_Record;
my_Record.name = m_Name;
my_Record.address = m_Address;
my_ObjectArray.SetAt(0, &my_Record);
my_ObjectArray in the example is a CObArray that is a member variable of my dialog. Later, when I try to access, I try
CFAFRecord * my_Record = *(CFAFRecord *)my_ObjectArray.GetAt(0);
m_Name = (*my_Record).GetName();
When I try that last line, I get an access violation, looks like a memory access error. I think I'm handling the memory wrong somewhere, maybe in the first functiion, when I use the SetAt, I pass the pointer to my_Record and my_Record is probably destoyed at the end of the function. If that's the case, how can I can I fix this?

Thought so, you have now posted the offending code.
my_ObjectArray.SetSize(10);
CFAFRecord my_Record;
my_Record.name = m_Name;
my_Record.address = m_Address;
my_ObjectArray.SetAt(0, &my_Record); my_Record goes out of scope and is destroyed, so that the address that is stored in my_ObjectArray now points to useless memory, thus your access violations.

,
ok now the problem is that I have sent characters through a scoket , but I dont know how to send a file,
I think that the first thing I need is to open the file in the side I want to send the file , right ?
and in the other side I need to open a new file where Im gonna put the file,,
but I dont know how to use fread and fwrite,
I mean I have read the msnd help, but I dont understand how to send the entire file
I need to do a while until all the data have been sent ??

I've been messing with this application for a while now. I have an unmanaged dll that fires a few events I want to capture in my C# app.
I used a C++ managed app, found here at codeproject, that would act as an interface to my unmanaged C++ and my C# app.
I never could get it to work, so im deciding whether or not I can put the unmanaged code inside my managed code and still use my events in unmanaged code.
If this is possible I could then reference it in C# and create an event handler for those events.
My question is, what does this entail?
What about the includes in my unmanaged code?
Am I correct in thinking that include 'windows.h' can be replaced with using namespace System;?
Other includes I'm using are:
strhandle.h
string.h
stdio.h
stdlib.h
share.h
and iohandler.h
What are the .Net equivalents to these?
Also my unmanaged code uses __asm to loop through some data, is that transferable to .Net?
Sorry for the many questions, I appreciate any help one can give me.
