Re: Arguments from different functions to a single function.

11-Nov-07 23:20

Now actually I have no idea what to do... Hmmm | :|

Here is a one function I've used.

<br />
void CSRFDBDlg::GetMess(int length, char * buffer, ADODB::_RecordsetPtr pRecSet)<br />
{<br />
	UpdateData(TRUE);		<br />
<br />
	_variant_t vtData;	// VARIANT data type<br />
	long nRetLength = 0;	// Dummy value<br />
<br />
	_variant_t vAppendChunck = BinaryToVariant((BYTE*)buffer, length, nRetLength);<br />
	pRecSet->Fields->GetItem("Bio_Data")->AppendChunk(vAppendChunck);<br />
<br />
	vtData.vt = VT_I2;<br />
	vtData.iVal = (int)nRetLength;<br />
	pRecSet->Fields->GetItem("Bio_Size")->PutValue(vtData);<br />
}<br />

Here I have two values to store in the database.

I appreciate your help all the time...

Ok, here is a real scenario may that why I have use this. Mainly I've read a file and find different data from it, on different functions. On the same function I store them in a database. That mean I've store data on the database in different places(ie: on different functions).

What I want to do is, store all the data on a single function. I think it is clear to me, when I look at the code. May be I can use those codes later.

I appreciate your help all the time...

What exactly do you mean when you say you wish to use the other functions from a single function?

I seems you want to use other process's function,as your's.
I suggest you do it in Inject dll,and return result to your application.

ADO, Can Bookmark be used to remember the current position of record? [modified]

followait11-Nov-07 21:48

11-Nov-07 21:48

I do it like this:

<br />
_variant_t Bookmark=m_pRS->Bookmark;<br />
//use m_pRS->Move() move around<br />
m_pRS->Bookmark=Bookmark //want it back, is it true?<br />

However, in some case an error will occur in the statement:

<br />
_variant_t Bookmark=m_pRS->Bookmark;<br />

I used try-catch, it's an unknown error.

What I want to do is to remeber the current position for back.
Is there an efficient way?
And How to make my recordset support bookmark?

Thanks very much.

I have an visual c++6.0 dll workspace, that I would like to compile as a lib. Is it necessary to create a new dsp, or may I screw the settings of the dll dsp so that it can compile as a static lib ?

And yes, I do feel ashamed to still have to ask such basic questions Blush | :O

Thanks,
RaGE

In the procect-explorer, you choose your project and click on properties.
or in the main-menu on project -> <your_projectname> settings

There'in you have the possibility to choose the kind of "output" DLL,LIB or EXE.
Then you choose LIB. You find this page at "configuration-properties"

I hope it works Wink | ;)

Projekt -> Einstellungen (ALT+F7) (Benutzer definiertes)

But actually I think you should do nothing. The compilation already gives you the *.dll, *.lib and *.def

You choose what you want to use, when integrating the dll in other projekt. Static or dinamic

BTW, have your tried "Erstellen -> Alles neu erstellen...?"

Ah sch***, zu flott gelesen, sorry.

Ist super lange her das ich Visual C++ 6.0 genutzt habe, aber das muss auch in den
Projekt-Einstellungen zu finden sein. Denn das erstellen einer .lib oder .dll ist ein
fundamentales Kriterium das auch schon Version 6.0 ermöglichen sollte.

Leider habe ich kein 6.0 installiert, sonst würde ich mal nachsehen wo sich dieser Menüpunkt verstecken könnte...

Aber Nelek könnte schon die Lösung haben Smile | :)

platform specific API or C standard API

Nelek11-Nov-07 23:18

The menu option you told was right. I think is in the "Linker" tab, there are two fields that say:

Name der Ausgabedatei: Release/MyDll.dll

Objekt-/Bibliothek-Module: (for me is empty)

But as I said, when I compile I have all the files in the debug/release folder. The *.dll, *.lib and the *.exp

So I guess not much work is needed.

In the worst case, create a new dll project. Open the *.cpp, *.h and *.def files. Copy/paste the code into the created project and compile.

Hello everyone,

Are there any official site to check whether an API (like tolower or toLower) is platform specific API (e.g. Microsoft platform specific, Linux specific) or C common standard API?

thanks in advance,
George

You need a copy of the ANSI C standard ISO/IEC 9899:1999 to see if a C Library function like tolower is in the standard. ( A draft is on the web but you're supposed to buy it )
You need to check the MSDN documentation for any standard API to see if Microsoft implemented it and glibc at www.gu.org is usually the place to look to see if Linux supports it. Not all in all an easy task. If you want to know more you could email me.

Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.

When using MSDN you'd typically see a "Requirements" section where compatibility information is given. If an API is part of the ANSI standard then it puts the text "ANSI" in the "Compatibility" column. See here[^].

How to check that ADO connection is successfully open or not.

Re: How to check that ADO connection is successfully open or not.

11-Nov-07 19:25

Hi all,

I've create a ADO connection to connect a SQL database to my application as follows.

<br />
	ADODB::_ConnectionPtr pConn;<br />
	ADODB::_RecordsetPtr pRecSet;<br />
<br />
	GetADOCon( srf_SQL, pConn, pRecSet );<br />
	sqlStr.Format( "SELECT * FROM RecordData" );<br />
	hr = pRecSet->Open( _bstr_t(sqlStr), pConn.GetInterfacePtr(), ADODB::adOpenDynamic, ADODB::adLockOptimistic, -1);<br />

It works fine on my application. But I want to avoid future issues that opening the database/dataset and check it is exist or not.

How can I do that.

Can I use SUCCEED to assert my application.

Thanks.

I appreciate your help all the time...

Re: How to check that ADO connection is successfully open or not.

11-Nov-07 21:18

I've done it simply as follows.

<br />
		if (FAILED(hr))<br />
		{<br />
			AfxMessageBox( "Open Database connection Failed." );<br />
		}<br />

How far this way is efficient to use.

I appreciate your help all the time...

From the code snippet you posted earlier I gather that you are using #import to import the ADO type declarations. Depending on what attributes you used while writing your #import statement the HRESULTs returned by COM methods might be swallowed by the wrapper class that the compiler generates for you (in the ".tli" file) and get translated into C++ exceptions throwing _com_error objects. So you might want to handle that exception.
