How do you use it (i.e. post the relevant code.)?

hi
I want to connect to MySQL database when i click a button in MFC dialog based application.

1)I searched web (including CP) but i didn't find exact info since there seems to be various methods to connect including DSN less (using MySQL++)

2)I have downloaded MySQL database & ODBC connector but i am not able to connect to it even while creating DSN(From Control Panel).

3)I am able to create tables etc on MySQL command line but not able to establish link between database & VC++ App.

Can anyone point me to a simple article which explains connecting to MySQl and inserting a record into it(with DSN or without DSN)

thanx in advance

MySql installation will provide you with soem documentation for api's to be used for all operations with MySql Database.
Some of them are

void *mydata;
//initialize and connect to mysql database
mysql_init((MYSQL*) 0);
mysql_real_connect((MYSQL*) myData,dbHost,dbUID,dbPWD, NULL, MYSQL_PORT, NULL,0);
//select the database to futher operations
mysql_select_db( (MYSQL*)myData,"MYSQL");
// run aquery
mysql_query((MYSQL*)myData, "select * from mysql.host");

So what are you having trouble with: 1) connecting to the data source, or 2) responding to a button click?

One way is to create a CRecordset-derived object. ClassWizard (Ctrl+W) will ask you what DSN to use.

read/write functions with dots as the last parameter

This type of construction so that a function with an indefinitely long parameter list can pass those parameterson to another function:

/*-----*/
void diprintf(HWND db,short c,char*fmt,...){char C[256];
vsprintf(C,fmt,(&fmt)+1);
SetDlgItemText(db,c,C);};
/*-----*/
short discanf(HWND db,short c,char*fmt,...){char C[256];
GetDlgItemText(db,c,C,256);
C[255]=0; return vsscanf(C,fmt,(&fmt)+1);}
/*-----*/

worked fine for me under Gnu C++ and Borland 4.5 C++, but my (free version) Visual C++ 2008 refused it with these error messages:

1>c:\2d\ppp_vc\ppp_vc\ppp.cpp(274) : error C2664: 'vsprintf' : cannot convert parameter 3 from 'char **' to 'va_list'
1>c:\2d\ppp_vc\ppp_vc\ppp.cpp(277) : error C3861: 'vsscanf': identifier not found

(plus the expected complaints about having char* instead of WCHAR* .)

I cannot find the info that I need in the online help.

Please what should these two funtions be corrected to for my Visual C++ 2008?

So have you looked at the prototype for vsprintf() to see what it is expecting as arguments? The error messages seems fairly self-explanatory.

Return more than one parameter from a single function

Hi all,

I have a function that calculated two int values. I call the function only by using a string and calculated those two int values. I want to return that two int values from the function when I call it with a string.

Look at the following function,

bool CharWordCount(string rtf, int& word_count, int& char_count)
{
// Body of the function
// do the processing and find the number of chars and
// number of words of the string
}
<pre>

One of my friend say i can do it as above. using the bool type return value. Can you guys give me a help how to do that.

I appreciate your help all the time...

Sure.
Assign the values you computed to word_count and char_count, respectivly.

And read a book like "C++ for Dummies" or "C++ in 21 days". Esp. the chapter about giving parameters to functions "per value" and "per reference".

Let's think the unthinkable, let's do the undoable, let's prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.

Yes, that is true and can do that and get values. What I'm asking is can I handle it using a bool operator, as I code on my question. Smile | :)

What do you mean? Your code is not showing the bool operator. That would be:

operator bool() const
{
}

In your example, you assign the values and return a bool. Thats it.

You can handle it as void, as bool or as you want. I.E. if you check the values of word_count and char_count before going out that function you can return FALSE if there was an error or TRUE if all worked good.

The bool value returned by the function has nothing to do with the assignment of the word_count and char_count parameters.

The function suggested doesn't uses the return value to transfer the required info to the caller, it instead directly access the caller variables to the purpose (the bool return value can be merely used to report if the whole operation succeeded).
