Sometimes this article can help you out: API Hooking Revealed[^]
If you have copy of Programming Application for Windows by Jeffery Richter, it clearly explains about DLL Injection and API Hooking.

Sarath,
thats great, but please read my question.
When a program uses CreateFile from itself ( exe ) - i am unable to hook into that (CreateFile).
When it uses a WriteFile ( which is in application.dll ) i am unable to hook ?
Seems like when a Api call is used by the DLL not EXE, hooking is not possible?
Is there any difference ?

I think you have hooked all the API's used by the exe only. In your case after hooking the WriteFile() function in the exe, you should take each depended dll of it and do the same.

I need some information about deriving a non-template class from a template class (I've already thought about whether I really need to do this, and it is the best solution in my case).
I have a base class which is also a template class:
template <class T>
class Base {
public:
Base();
Base(INT);
virtual ~Base();
virtual INT Base<T>::f();
virtual INT Base<T>::g(INT);
INT n;
T* x;
};
and for its methods I make sure to use the necessary syntax, i.e.:
template <class T> INT Base<T>::g(INT num)
{
// (code here)
}
But I also have some classes which are derived from the template class, such as:
class Derived : public Base<INT> {
public:
Derived(): Base() {};
Derived(INT): Base() {};
~Derived();
INT h(FLOAT);
};
When linking, I get error messages saying there are unresolved externals. Specifically, the INT versions of the template class methods are unresolved.
I haven't been able to find enough documentation on everything I need to do when deriving classes from template classes, and am undoubtedly missing something somewhere. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Is it a typo?

Hi,
Thanks for responding! I think the lines in my original question were:
virtual INT Base<T>::f();
virtual INT Base<T>::g(INT);
There seems to be some problem with copying the brackets <> to or from the message board.
Thanks for any help you can give!

You havenot provided any implementation for template base class but for fuction "g".
I dont know the details of implementation but still doubt on the predefined return type (INT) in the template class. You've not using T for any other purpose(except the pointer X).
Anyway the template class generate during compilation and at the time of linking the linker could not find definition for the functions declared for the class. Otherwise you will have to make the virtual function as "pure virtual function".
Are you trying to do something as follows?
<br />
<br />
template <class t=""><br />
class Base<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
Base();<br />
virtual ~Base(){};<br />
virtual T f(){};<br />
virtual T g(T );<br />
int n;<br />
T* x;<br />
};<br />
<br />
template <class t=""><br />
T Base<t>::g(T num)<br />
{<br />
}<br />
<br />
class Derived : public Base<int><br />
{<br />
public:<br />
Derived() : Base<int>() {};<br />
Derived(int): Base<int>() {};<br />
~Derived(){};<br />
int h(float){};<br />
};<br />
</int></int></int></t></class></class>

Hi,
Thanks for replying!
Actually, no, that's not what I'm trying to do. I make use of the pointer x within the methods f, g, and h, but I also use other variables which are INT's in all cases (that is, no matter whether x is an INT*, FLOAT*, etc.). So it doesn't really matter whether T shows up again in the class definition.
Also, I actually do have implementations for all of the class methods in my code, I just showed one (g) to make my question shorter.
I happened to post another message at the same time you were posting this one, in which I say my problem may be due to a need for explicit instantiation because my classes are in a static library.
Thank you for your suggestions!

You mean you have provided implementation in some other CPP file (and created as static library)?

My template class and the classes which are derived from it are declared in a .h file, and the implementation (including the method, g, which I showed in my question) is done in a separate .cpp file. These files are part of a static library.
I have a separate application which uses the classes from the library. When I link the application, I get the errors I mentioned.
|
|
|
|

There it is!!!
If I properly understood you question, C++ not allows you to separate declaration and definition of template methods.
Please See C++ FAQ[^]

Yeah, I've heard that too. I did get it to work with separate declaration and definition files in the end, though, so maybe that information is outdated now?
It turned out I needed to use explicit instantiation in my library. In my .cpp file, I added the line:
template class Base<INT>;
I wrote a longer explanation in a news item, below.
Thank you!

I neglected to mention that my template class and derived class are in a static library, so possibly the problem is that I need to do explicit instantiation of the template class.
However, using template class Base<INT>; gives me warning C4661, no suitable definition provided for explicit template instantiation request.
How do I explicitly instantiate a template class in a library?
|
|
|
|

It turns out that using template class Base<INT>; is the answer after all.
For anyone else out there with the same question, here is what finally worked for me. In a .h file, the template class and derived class are declared as follows:
template <class T>
class Base {
public:
Base();
Base(INT);
virtual ~Base();
virtual INT f();
virtual INT g(INT);
INT n;
T* x;
};
class Derived : public Base<INT> {
public:
Derived(): Base() {};
Derived(INT): Base() {};
~Derived();
INT h(FLOAT);
};
The implementation is done in a separate .cpp file. Use explicit instantiation, that is, use the following line in that file:
template class Base<INT>;
and for the template class methods, use:
template <class T> INT Base<T>::f()
{
// (code here)
}
template <class T> INT Base<T>::g(INT num)
{
// (code here)
}
The derived class methods use the usual syntax for any class method.
That's it!
As a side note, the compiler and linker don't complain (and the application runs fine) if I declare the template class methods using either virtual INT Base<T>::g(INT); or virtual INT g(INT);, that is, if the class declaration is either:
template <class T>
class Base {
public:
// CONSTRUCTORS:
Base();
Base(INT);
// DESTRUCTOR:
virtual ~Base();
// METHODS:
virtual INT Base<T>::f();
virtual INT Base<T>::g(INT);
// DATA:
INT n;
T* x;
};
or:
template <class T>
class Base {
public:
Base();
Base(INT);
virtual ~Base();
virtual INT f();
virtual INT g(INT);
INT n;
T* x;
};
I don't know where I picked up the syntax for the first version, though, so I used the second version in the end.
Thanks to those who made comments!

Hi, I'm trying to map a network storage drive by using the following code:-
NETRESOURCE NetResource;
NetResource.dwType = RESOURCETYPE_ANY; //RESOURCETYPE_DISK;
NetResource.lpRemoteName = "\\\\STORAGE-93F8\\PUBLIC";
NetResource.lpLocalName = "Z:";
DWORD dwRC;
dwRC = WNetAddConnection2(&NetResource,"","",0);
This gives a return code of 487 which is obviously an error but I can't a definmition for it - some references on the 'net imply resource not found. In a cmd window, I can issue "net use z: \\STORAGE-93F8" and this is successful. So what's wrong with the call to WNetAddConnection ? Any help appreciated !

Hello to all, Sorry for posting such question here but couldn't find any more suitable place on
CodeProject, and I have no intention of posting to any other forum!!!!!!!!
the problem is as follows.
I have an application to calculate the results of a square polynom:
#include<iostream.h>
#include<math.h>
void equall(int a,int b,int c)
{
float x1;
x1=(-b/(2*a));
cout<<"there is only one root and it's: x1="<<x1<<".\n";
}
void equall(int a,int b,int c)
{
float x1, delta;
delta=0;
x1= (-b+delta)/(2*a);
cout<<"there is only one root and it's: x1="<<x1<<".\n";
}
void bigger(int a,int b,int c)
{
float x1,x2,delta;
delta=sqrt((b*b)-(4*a*c));
x1=(-b-delta)/(2*a);
x2=(-b+delta)/(2*a);
cout<<"the two roots are x1="<<x1<<" and x2="<<x2<<".\n";
}
void main()
{
int a,b,c;
float delta;
cout<<"enter 3 variables (a,b,c) for the square equation: (the integer of the number is the one that counts) ";
cin>>a>>b>>c;
delta=((b*b)-(4*a*c));
if(delta<0)
cout<<"the square roots,x1 and x2,doesn't exist!\n";
if(delta==0)
equall(a,b,c);
if(delta>0)
bigger(a,b,c);
}
</math.h></iostream.h>
So it's like that, if I use version 1 x1 always gets a value of 0 no metter what I put
into a, b, c. this is of course not correct!!!
if I use version 2 it's acting OK.
this behavior is weird to me, I can't seem to understand what is it deriving from.

Hi,
I've had some problems like this sometimes. In your version 1, all of the variables on the right-hand side are integers, so the division is done using all integers (even though on the left-hand side you have a float), and any result less than 1 gets rounded down to 0 before being placed in x1. In your version 2, you use a variable of type float (the variable called delta) on the right-hand side as well, so the division is done using floats and a non-integer value can now be placed in x1.
You can fix it by using either:
x1 = (float)(-b)/(2*a);
or
x1 = -b/(2.0f*a);
It is weird, but I've seen it before!

Good, just a note:
Californian2 wrote: x1 = (float)(-b)/(2*a);
brackets around -b have no effect. On the other hand you're relying on higher precedence of cast operator with respect of the division one, nothing wrong with that, but maybe
x1 = ((float)-b)/(2*a);
better illustrates what are you doing.

Hi,
you should not have ints at all in this program; I suggest you use floats or better
yet doubles for all coefficients, delta, x, etc. It simply is not an integer problem,
it is a real (or complex) problem.
If you want to deal with the delta<0 case, have a look at some CodeProject articles
on complex classes.

When using float and double types, it's a good idea to not use integer constants. In other words, use 0.0 and 2.0 instead of 0 and 2 so that the math library is loaded and initialized properly.

is it possible to somehow 'receive' the data from another program and it's Listbox control ?
