I have not looked at the sights you provided, but that is not an error. A warning might not be a bad idea for that, but come on (it's legal code).

Actually, it does violate the standard:

"Between the previous and next sequence point an object shall have its stored value modified at most once by the evaluation of an expression. Furthermore, the prior value shall be accessed only to determine the value to be stored."

The second sentence is the killer here. I think it's a silly statement, but perhaps that's just me. To me, it would be more intuitive to state that an object's value is not changed until the compiler reaches a sequence point - nice and clean and predictable, without preventing totally unambiguous code such as this example.

Actually, undefined behaviour is not a violation of the standard. It is what it says "undefined", that means it is up to the compiler [vender] to determine what its behaviour is.

Personaly, I think it should translate into:

data[i] = i;
++i;

data[i] = (temp = i + 1);
i = temp;

but that is just my opinion.

Did you change the warning level to 4? (Project->Settings->C/C++)

I just checked with both VS6 and VS 2003, both of them dont detect and warn for a[i] = i++. Do you have VS 2005 to check this out? GCC 3.4.3 does, if you want to check this out with GCC.

thanks!

Hello,
I'd like to release an application in several languages(english, french and spanish).
I know I can do it by traducing only my resource file. In fact, I've included all strings I use as resources.
But I don't want to duplicate my application directory for each language. I'd like to manage all languages only from one workspace under Visual C++ 6.
Can you please tell me how to do or point me to a document discussing it?

Thanks

Best regards,
Allad

I have written programs that allow multiple languages, but I have not written one that supported multiple languages for the interface.

Given that, there is a book from Microsoft press that explains the subject. I forget its name but it was included in the VC6 MSDN library and the 2nd edition came out last year.

There is also an article some where on CP on the subject.

Essentially it breaks down to providing a DLL for each language that contains the strings for the required languages. In order to change the language all you have to do is change the DLL. In other words, your string resources are stored in a DLL. You still have to make sure that you give enough room in the text fields (at least in dialogs) for longer text strings or shorter text strings.

The biggest problem is working with Asian text, because you have to give extra room for the height. Outside of Asian characters I have not [yet] ran across double byte characters.

I do need to warn you, in the middle-east we may have a totally different problem, but I am not going to discuss that now.

Thank you for replying.
However, I do not want to write an application that supports multiple language for the interface.
I'd just like to build one different version of my app for each language. Maybe it's a bit easier?

How can i enumerate all users in PC?

16-Mar-06 15:24

Sorry, I have been on a break.

The simplist approach would be to write your code using the functions prefixed with "_t" (Microsoft specific) to support single-byte, multibyte, and UNICODE character sets, depending on how it is compiled. Then require that their machine requires an OS (NT, Win2000, WinXP+) that supports UNICODE and only compile your code for UNICODE. Then you should be able to create one application that supports all UNICODE supported languages with one program (not including the interface).

If you need to support Win3.1, Win95, Win98, or Millinium Edition then it is to complicated to explain.

Good luck!

This example shows the hook of GetModuleHandleW in target process(process where you injected your dll). It works only in 32-bit windows.
If you injected your dll into multithreaded process you must synchronize execution of this code with other threads or program sometimes may crash.

BYTE firstBytes[BYTES_COUNT];<br />
void *pfnGetModuleHandle;<br />

{<br />
	HANDLE hKernel32;<br />

<br />
	hKernel32 = LoadLibrary(_T("kernel32.dll"));<br />

your method and modification the Import Table, which will be highness and safe?

Anton Mikhalyov12-Mar-06 3:55

12-Mar-06 3:55

My method is better to use, because it never fail, except when application detected and removed hook(very very rarely), but it creates additional problems with synchronization in mt applications and it doesn't work on windows other than 32 bit(without modification).
IAT modification is also good method, but this hook wouldn't work if application directly calls functions(call GetProcAddress to retrieve address of function...). Second method fails more offen than first.
Also you can create a dll that debugs process in which it injected by inserting int3 instructions into functions you want to hook. If number of functions to hook =< 4 you can use hardware breakpoints, setting hardware breakpoints do not require any code modifications.

HOW WHAT12-Mar-06 4:52

12-Mar-06 4:52

1.Your method if had some call hooked function may be happen some exception, right?

2.How to do like you say
"Also you can create a dll that debugs process in which it injected by inserting int3 instructions into functions you want to hook. If number of functions to hook =< 4 you can use hardware breakpoints, setting hardware breakpoints do not require any code modifications. "

Some time ago, I download codeproject about use debug process to inject dll, but in win98 all application will happen crash.
