hi, im having a problem binding data to a crystal report. but actually i think the problem is caused by ADODB from which i get the data.
The problem is, when there are field names with an underscore,
eg: U_ID
ADO doesnt bind it. I use .csv files as data source and use MS VC++ 6.0.
How do i write the Column headers in the .csv file and the Schema.ini file so that ADO doesnt mind the wildcards?
thnx!

I'm using access database (.mdb) using ADO classes. Anyone knows how to change comparing of strings in sql case sensitive ? (like select * from t where txt="aA"). I need it to be case sensitive only in some tables.
Thank you !

Im not sure about Access, but if I need a case-sensitive comparison in MySQL, I would add the option "BINARY" to the VARCHAR in question.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Hello!
I'm currently trying to implement some data exchange using the WM_COPYDATA inter-process communication mechanism. Sending data from one application from one application to another works fine, but now they should communicate, i.e. the other application should answer the first application.
How can this be implemented? Just sending back data using WM_COPYDATA obviously cannot work: the first application sends data to the second window and blocks (SendMessage), the second one sends data to the first window and blocks, both block as the first window is also blocked. Unfortunately, PostMessage cannot be used with WM_COPYDATA, SendMessage must be used.
Best regards
Dominik

Use SendMessageTimeout instead of SendMessage. Your app will not hang indefinitely if the other app does not respond. Also you could fire up a second thread to send the message from, that way only a subthread hangs not the entire app.
You may be right

But it just may be a lunatic you’re looking for

Hi I'm an intern currently attached to a programming company and I just need to know how to
1) Transmit "something" for 2250ms or Stop once I'm done transmitting all my messages. (I have a counter to know how many messages are in my queue)
I know it has something to do with threads and handles and waitforsingleobject but I can't seem to link them together. Please help.
Just a simple algorithm will do though a sample source code would really help. Thx alot

Your message is not very clear (you don't explain what needs to be sent and where...).
But ok, maybe you are just interested in the part with the Thread. In fact, yes you are right. The thing you have to to is start a thread (CreateThread for example), and to this thread you can pass the handle of the window which needs to receive messages from your thread (when the process is finished). In your thread, you make a loop to send all your messages and when it's done, you send a owner defined message to your window message queue. So, in your main window, you know that data has been sent.
The use of a separate thread is there to allow the UI not to 'freeze' when you send all your messages.

Oh very sorry bout that.
I'm actually making a simulator that will receive a stream of bytes from a user-defined port, I've already stripped the message, decoded it and also managed to send the appropriate reply (stream of bytes back) through a seperate user-defined port.
Now the problem is that I don't know how to send my byte array through the port within a time window of 2250ms (Maximum) or terminate the transmission if the message is all sent before the 2250ms. I thought this is similar to the token ring network but they don't send within time windows.
Thanks alot for replying Cedric.
p.s. After I create a thread I make a loop in the thread the same way I make loops in functions? I'm totally new to this thread stuff..

Yes, a thread is simply a function that will be called in parallel with the rest of your program. So that means that if you lock something in your main thread; your second thread will continue to run independantly.
So, in your thread, you'll need to receive data and store them somewhere accessible from the rest of your program. But warning ! You need to secure your data to avoid both thread trying to access it at the 'same time'. Take a look at CriticalSections[^] for example.

Hi,
Can anyone pls. explain what are the dis-advantages of connecting to ORacle through DSN rather than using Pro C.
I wish to learn Pro C to connect to Oracle from VC++ is there any article to go about from the start.
Thanks,
Arun.

You are comparing apples to oranges here. A DSN is language independent.

As long as you are able to access the ODBC API, you're fine.

My doubt is:
We have two methods through which anyone can connect to Oracle from VC++:
a)through DSN
b)using Pro C
which of these methods is better, obviously it must be through Pro C in such case, what are the advantages or dis-advantages of each.
Hope you have understood my doubt,
Thanks.

Why would that be obvious? What metrics do you have?

how can i get the Names of machines along with the IP address on a network ? it will be of a great help .
Thanks in advance
kss
|
|
|
|

use WNetOpenEnum,WNetEnumResource with the NETRESOURCE structure
Populate the functions and you will get the names of the machines
Pass the names of the machines as szHostName :
gethostname( szHostName, strlen( szHostName ) );
host = gethostbyname(strFullName);
ptr = (struct in_addr *) host->h_addr_list[0];
int a = ptr->S_un.S_un_b.s_b1;
int b = ptr->S_un.S_un_b.s_b2;
int c = ptr->S_un.S_un_b.s_b3;
int d = ptr->S_un.S_un_b.s_b4;
strTemp.Format("%s %d.%d.%d.%d",strFullName,a,b,c,d);
To get the IP Address of the machines in the network

Thanks Ansuman,
There is one more doubt 
When i am trying to compile my application in MFC using WNet. it is throwing Unresolved External Symbols and the Mangled Function name
Why ? so
kss

Did you include the file mpr.lib
you can do this as follows
project>settings>links/object/library modules and add mpr.lib in that box

Yes i did not include the mpr.lib , Thanks again for this help. I will test it out.

This retrieves the name of the local machine only.

You probably didnt't pass the parameters properly.
This is the height of proper values being needed to be passed in the functions.
You didn't specify what value did you pass in this function ?.
once you pass resource_globalnet as the first parameter you can get all the machine names in the network.Resoucetype_any specifies that the resource could be anything like a printer etc.
WNetOpenEnum( RESOURCE_GLOBALNET, RESOURCETYPE_ANY, 0, pnr, &hEnum );
WNetEnumResource( hEnum, &count, buf, &bufsize );

Not sure what this says.

Huh?
AnShUmAn_VCPP wrote: once you pass resource_globalnet as the first parameter...
gethostname() only takes two arguments, neither of which is RESOURCE_GLOBALNET.
Re-read this thread to see where you got confused.

WNetOpenEnum( RESOURCE_GLOBALNET, RESOURCETYPE_ANY, 0, pnr, &hEnum );
Pass Globalnet option in this function .See my previos post to this question

I very well versed in its usage. Thanks.

Your initial response to "fearless" is where things went awry. For some unknown reason, you suggested that gethostname() could be used "to get the Names of machines Running on a Network." I corrected you by saying that this function was only for retrieving the name of the local machine. Make sense now?

I asked him to use WNet... Functions and populate them
I told him to pass the values to gethostbyname and change it to get the IP Address. Just check my first post to this question
Anyways its good to keep confusions away.
I will take it as a advise from you and try and make my posts more accurate
