He may not have any code to be called while the up or down arrow keys are pressed. I understand that his requirement was to just simulate an up arrow key press while 'U' is pressed and down arrow key press if 'D' is pressed.
Also, how do you handle 'D' or 'U'? Say, if there are multiple child controls in the application window, those child controls may be having the keyboard focus!

I'm writing my first shell extension dll, and I'm trying to figure out how to pass the Recycle bin files/folders anme CShellExt::InvokeCommand at right click of menu item. I am getting others files and folders name.
Some sennipt is attached.
<br />
void CCoMenHandler::GetSelectedFiles(LPCITEMIDLIST pidlFolder,IDataObject *pdtobj)<br />
{<br />
g_szSelectedFiles.RemoveAll();<br />
<br />
if (pdtobj) <br />
{<br />
pdtobj->AddRef();<br />
<br />
STGMEDIUM medium;<br />
FORMATETC fe = { CF_HDROP, NULL, DVASPECT_CONTENT, -1, TYMED_HGLOBAL};<br />
<br />
<br />
HRESULT hr = pdtobj->GetData (&fe, &medium);<br />
if (FAILED (hr))<br />
{<br />
return ;<br />
}<br />
<br />
char path[MAX_PATH];<br />
<br />
UINT fileCount = DragQueryFile((HDROP)medium.hGlobal, 0xFFFFFFFF,<br />
path, MAX_PATH);<br />
<br />
if (fileCount>0)<br />
{<br />
g_szSelectedFiles.SetSize(fileCount);<br />
<br />
for (UINT i=0;i<fileCount;i++) <br />
{<br />
memset(path, 0, MAX_PATH);<br />

Hello everyone,
Unique pointer should not allow aliasing. But my code which contains unique pointer aliasing and also compile/run ok. Anything wrong?
__interface IFoo {
public:
virtual int foo ([unique] char *ptr1, [unique] char *ptr2) = 0;
};
class Foo : public IFoo {
public:
int foo (char *ptr1, char *ptr2)
{
char array1[] = "Hello";
ptr1 = array1;
ptr2 = array1;
return 0;
}
};
int main()
{
char* ptr1 = 0;
char* ptr2 = 0;
Foo f;
f.foo(ptr1, ptr2);
return 0;
}
thanks in advance,
George

Hi Friends,
I want to export a class and its static member from the DLL.
I could build the DLL.
And i want to use that exported class and its static members form that Dll in my C++ application. But when i am building application i am getting a link error for that static member.
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static int CMyClass::i" (?i@CMyClass@@2HA).
The IDE that i am using is Visual Studio 6.0.
Plz help me 
The details of the implementation is as follows...
//////////////////////DLL PART//////////////////////////
// MyClass.h: interface for the CMyClass class.
//---------------------------------------------
#define _MYDLL
#ifdef _MYDLL
#define MY_API __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define MY_API __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
class MY_API CMyClass
{
public:
CMyClass();
virtual ~CMyClass();
public:
static int i;
};
// MyClass.cpp: implementation of the CMyClass class.
//-------------------------------------------------
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "MyClass.h"
int CMyClass::i;
CMyClass::CMyClass()
{
}
CMyClass::~CMyClass()
{
}
//////////////////////////////CALLING APPLICATION//////////////////////////
In my application i try to use that static member as below;
#include "MyClass.h"
_tmain()
{
int nValue = CMyClass::i; 
}

Hi,
I corrected the code as follows.
And i defined _MYIF in the project settings.
The Dll could build successfully.
But when i ma using this in amy application , it is showing an error
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: static int CMyClass::nValue" (?nValue@CMyClass@@2HA)
Plase see the classs impelmentation as follows.
Does any have any idea?????
//MyClass.h
#ifdef _MYIF
#define MY_API __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define MY_API __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
class MY_API CMyClass
{
public:
CMyClass();
virtual ~CMyClass();
public:
static int nValue;
};
//MyClass.cpp
#include "MyClass.h"
int CMyClass::nValue = 0;
CMyClass::CMyClass()
{
}
CMyClass::~CMyClass()
{
}

You need to link the importation library of the DLL (for instance if your DLL is MyClass.DLL, then you have to link your application with MyClass.lib).
You may add MyClass.lib to the linker command line in the project settings.
Probably you need also to specify the folder wherein the linker may find the importation library (choose Tools->Options menu item then select the Project and Solutions->VC++ Directories, select Library files into the show directories for listbox and finally add the MyClass.lib folder path to the list).

Hi,
I have already given the import lib file to the project.
And i could access all the class members expect the Static member of the class.
Then ???
Thanks,

Then I dont know. I mean, the following very simple test:
DLL header file
#ifdef CPPDLL_EXPORTS
#define CPPDLL_API __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define CPPDLL_API __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
class CPPDLL_API CCppDll {
public:
CCppDll(void);
~CCppDll(void);
static int nValue;
};
DLL source file
CCppDll::CCppDll()
{
return;
}
CCppDll::~CCppDll()
{
return;
}
int CCppDll::nValue = 0;
client application
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "..\\..\\CppDLL\\CppDLL\CppDLL.h"
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
CCppDll::nValue =5;
}it's working fine on my system.

Hi All,
Its is workign fine
Thanks for your support
----------------------------------------
But one intesting thing i see is that i give the CPPDLL_EXPORTS in the project settings.
If i am giving it in StdAfx.h i will work.
OK NAy i worked.
Thanks

Did you link with the lib file generated when you built the dll ?
EDIT: oww, I just saw your mistake: you are defining _MYDLL in the header file of CMyClass. So it will ALWAYS be defined (even in the code of the executable), so MY_API will always relate to __declspec(dllexport).
You should define _MYDLL in the preprocessor definitions of your dll only.

Hello everyone,
Could anyone show me a sample or where to find dual interface implementation for IDispatch please?
I have seached for MSDN and Google for half an hour and seems all I could get are MFC based.
Any non-MFC and non-ATL (pure C++) sample?
thanks in advance,
George

Thanks CPallini,
I read through related code and find it uses the dual property to qualify the interface, here is the related code,
(IExample2.idl)
[uuid(B6127C55-AC5F-4ba0-AFF6-7220C95EEF4D), dual, oleautomation, hidden, nonextensible]
I feel I miss the concept (at least to some level) of the dual interface. Any benefits we could have if we add dual property?
regards,
George

A dual interface [^] can invoked both the classical, faster way (i.e. through VTABLE) and the automation, slower one.
For instance VB6 Clients can take advantage of the VTable approach while VBSCript ones have to use automation approach.

Good link!! Now my confusion is, to implement an interface for OLE automation, once we inherit from IDispatch interface, then it is always a dual interface, right?
What type of implementation in C++ for a component is not a dual interface? I can not imagine a sample. Any ideas?

George

You may also choose to not declare your interface dual, but, as stated in the MSDN page:
dual interfaces are recommended whenever possible
George_George wrote: What type of implementation in C++ for a component is not a dual interface?
For instance, a component that does not support automation.

I have this confusion is because, if I remember clearly, if a component supports automation, it must inherit from IDispatch interface, then it must be a dual interface.
Any ideas?

Actually you can derive from IDispatch and at same time don't declare your interface as dual.

Two confusions,
1. What is the purpose of doing so "in practice"? Force user to use IDispatch other than efficient vtable?
2. Could we use vtable even if dual property is not added to interface? For example, using QueryInterface to get some interface other than IUnknown and IDispatch, then invoke its member function just the same as invoking through vtable?
regards,
George

In practice you use IDispatch on VTABLE capable client only if you need late binding.

You can always use VTABLE on all of the COM Interfaces. what dual really means is that the same functionalities that you can access via IDispatch mechanism are also available as standard COM methods (i.e. are part of the interface itself).

You mean QueryInterface for IDispatch interface? What mean later binding?

So you mean even if we do not explicitly add dual to the property, we can still use dual (by vtable and by IDispatch.invoke()) functions if underlying component support it?
If yes, what is the function of dual keyword? It does not enforce anything strictly, right?
(non-dual does not mean there is single -- IDispatch.invoke -- method to access component)

George

For instance (maybe syntax is not correct, I havent VB6 at hand)
Dim objSer as Object
set objSer = CreateObject("MSCOMMLib.MSComm")
is late binding, i.e. MSComm object is ignored at compile time and you can only access objSer functionality through IDispatch. Late binding is often useful.

Well dual keyword is MIDL. MIDL files generate typelibs, headers and source files. But the true impact of the dual keyword on such files I don't know.
