Ok.. Forget ActiveX .. Is it possible to convert DLL created in V.S. 6.0 to EXE ??
Thanks,
Anand.

Hello!
I want to know that is possible to code a simple DLL, and when it´s loaded in a program, it will check for other loaded DLLs, and do simple actions, based on the loaded dlls, like send a msgbox, etc.
Example:
Program is running ( with the sample DLL that checks for my.dll ) -> my.dll is loaded by the program -> sample DLL will check that my.dll is loaded by the program and send a msgbox ("Hi, the my.dll is loaded by the program" ).
Anyone can post or link to example compilable source on how to do this?
Thanks in advance!

Look at this article here
It is mainly about how to get loaded DLL reference counts, but it talks about a structure containing the "linked list of loaded modules", so it should help you with your problem 
Hope this helps!

Hello,
I have written a program using Visual C++ (derived from CDialog) that takes in a very large file and parses the information within the file into variables. So far, no problems with that. Due to the size of the file, this takes a few minutes to complete so I added a progress bar to my dialog to show that it is processing. Once I hit the button to begin the parse, everything works fine. The progress bar begins to grow, and the file is being parsed correctly.
Here lies my problem:
If I click anywhere on the screen and cause my dialog to lose focus, the GUI of the dialog freezes and no long responds. The parse still works correctly after I have clicked on the screen. My GUI begins to respond again once the parse function has completed.
I would just like to know how to remedy this problem? Thanks.

This sounds like a job for a worker thread.

you need either a classic "message pump" or you need to put the file reading into a worker thread that posts status messages back to the UI

Alright, so I had a feeling I would have to implement a worker thread. My problem is that within that thread, I need to be able to update my progress bar constantly and I know that you're not supposed to touch your GUI controls from within the worker thread. I understand that the work around is to use SendMessage() or PostMessage().
My code within my worker thread looks as follows: (m_prg is my progress control)
.
.
.
CStdioFile f1;
if( !f1.Open( pFileName, CFile::modeRead ) )
{ /* error */ }
int totSize = f1.GetLength();
m_prg.SetRange32(0, totSize); <--GUI freezes here
int curSize = 0;
m_prg.SetPos(curSize);
.
.
.
What I've got so far is that every time I want to call m_prg, I need to do it through SendMessage() or PostMessage(). The thing is that I know nothing about these functions. How do I implement them? I can't seem to figure it out.
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The CProgressCtrl methods you are using use SendMessage to send the appropriate message to the
control.
I'm not sure why this is freezing the UI where you indicate, but if you want to try PostMessage,
then use it instead of calling the CProgressCtrl method.
For example:
//m_prg.SetRange32(0, totSize);
::PostMessage(m_prg, PBM_SETRANGE32, (WPARAM) 0, (LPARAM) totSize);

If you choose the classic message pump route, there's an example of an MFC message pump
here[^]

Maybe if you use of progress on the timer your problem will be solve.

status = FtpGetCurrentDirectory(assConnect,curDir,&curdirLen);
why(GetLastError()); // this function displays the error message as string
//i get "overlapped i/o operation in progress"
i am trying to connect to my ftp server using the above code... opena nd connect are working well
but not the ftpgetcurrentdrectory...
what am i supposed to do ...

Since you've chosen to do the operation asynchronously, you are getting the appropriate error
because the operation hasn't completed.
For asynchronous operations you'll probably want to use InternetSetStatusCallback() and in the
callback you'll be notified when the operation completes (INTERNET_STATUS_REQUEST_COMPLETE).
Also, you probably shouldn't call GetLastError() unless there's actually an error. Not all
APIs reset the last error when they are successful.

when i run the program the message dosent gets displayed...
what am i supposed to do ...
some help is needed??? will you...

When you call InternetConnect() you need to pass a value for the dwContext parameter.
From the docs:
"Note The callback function specified in the lpfnInternetCallback parameter will not be called
on asynchronous operations for the request handle when the dwContext parameter of HttpOpenRequest
is set to zero (INTERNET_NO_CALLBACK), or the connection handle when the dwContext handle of
InternetConnect is set to zero (INTERNET_NO_CALLBACK)."

wow, its working after giving the dwContext a value of 1... thank you a lot...
we will catch up later... i am working on further...

Here's a tip -
When using callbacks in C++, the callback needs to be a global function or a static member
function. Using C++ it's nice to encapsulate the function within a class but static member
functions can't access non-static members of the class.
This is where the dwContext comes in....you can pass a pointer to a class object then in the
callback, cast the passed context back to an object pointer. With that object pointer you now
have access to the entire class

void Ftp()

assConnect = InternetConnect(assOpen,"???????",INTERNET_INVALID_PORT_NUMBER,"fhfhfgh","fhfghfgh",INTERNET_SERVICE_FTP,INTERNET_FLAG_PASSIVE,(long)1);
}
and i have setup a callback function and is working well...
i am callingthefunction FtpGetCurrentDirectory...
the return value is zero
no effect in the callback
and the getlasterror showed invalid handle...
what's next...

I wrote a program to trim a segment mpeg file to avi file, the video in the avi file is ok, but I can't output the audio into it. when I try to find out the output pin of the audio group, it returns error code:"the group does not has output pin", should I exract audio from mpeg file to a new file then add it to Timeline? please give any suggestion. my code is following:

This is not a coding question, but related to Visual C++.
Here is the situation. I am planning to employ several programmers to help me coding. Is there any way to let them add new classes/dialogs/resources without seeing the implementation of my existing classes/dialogs/resources? Of course I want them to be able to use my classes (the main/base classes), but I don't want them to have the whole code (which I wrote for several years) for security and other reasons.
I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas. Thanks.

If you have interfaces (pure virtual classes which do define neither member variables nor any implementation or classes which map their interface on your implementation-classes in your code, you can give them only that.
But as you ask here you probably have neither.
Maybe you can get away with giving them a "cleaned up" version of the headers, with any variable declaration and private function removed as an interface.
That way, they could include your code as a closed-source-lib.
Or these guys set up their own set of mock-objects using your interface?
Failure is not an option - it's built right in.
