Which implies that you want to implicitly link to the DLL.

hello everyone,
good afternoon to all, i am creating OCX files so i want to use variant parameter.please tell me how it should declared and where should be declared. i declared like this:
in ACR120RWctl.h
CString strVerifyKeyA;
CString VerifyKeyA(int SectorNo, VARIANT strVerifyKeyA="ss");
is it right way to declaration or not.
in ACR120RWctl.cpp i am using these functions.
if i am setting the field and scode as follows then it is giving error.
strVerifyKeyA.vt=VT_ERROR;
strVerifyKeyA.scode=DISP_E_PARAMNOTFONUD;
it is giving error.and if i want to assign sring value to that variable then also it is giving error.

please help me.i am in tension.
HELP ME.

THANKU IN ADVANCED,

Syntax is OK for this prototype of function.

This prototype means:
Function VerifyKeyA takes two parameters:
the first one is of type int named SectorNo,
the second one is of type VARIANT.
But according to the name strBerifyKeyA, it is treated as a string.

This function returns an object of type CString, which is of course, a string.

But honestly, a verification procedure should return seccess / failure, which would be type BOOL or bool;
Or some kind of return value (Status WORD) to represent the verification result.

Before you feed that VARIANT type variable as the argument to the function, you need to configure that VARIANT variable.

And while review your modified post, I guess that you are using the prototype in function implementation as an expression?! WTF | :WTF:

What you have to do is ...

CString s;
VARIANT v;
BSTR bstr = s.AllocSysString();
v.vt = VT_BSTR;
v.bstrVal = bstr;
VerifyKeyA(SecNo, v);
::SysFreeString(bstr);

hi..
i write like this in .h or header file
CString strVerifyKeyA;
VARIANT strVerifyKeyAwith;
BSTR bstr1=strVerifyKeyA.AllocSysString();
strVerifyKeyAwith.vt=VT_BSTR;
strVerifyKeyAwith.bstrVal=bstr1;

CString strVerifyKeyB;
VARIANT strVerifyKeyBwith;
BSTR bstr2=strVerifyKeyB.AllocSysString();
strVerifyKeyBwith.vt=VT_BSTR;
strVerifyKeyBwith.bstrVal=bstr2;

CString strPort;
VARIANT strPort1;
BSTR port=strPort.AllocSysString();
strPort1.vt=VT_BSTR;
strPort1.bstrVal=port;

CString VerifyKeyA(int SectorNo, strVerifyKeyAwith);
CString VerifyKeyB( int SectorNo, strVerifyKeyBwith);
int InitReader(strPort1="");
long DisconnectReader(int ReaderHandle);
in .cpp file i added the code of initreader(strPort1="USB1")
{
}

but i am getting error like this as follows:
error C2327: 'CACR120RWCtrl::strVerifyKeyA' : member from enclosing class is not a type name, static, or enumerator

hi max,
i am used how u told me.but when i called that function in another function then it is showing that VerifyKeyA(3); does not take 1 parameter.if i am giving like this :VerifyKeyA(3,"");then it is giving error like this:cannot convert parameter 2 from 'char [1]' to 'struct tagVARIANT'.Please Help me. i am in confusion.or else tell me some reference book that i will read from those books. please do it.

DLL passing EXE parameters

Programm3r12-Mar-08 22:53

12-Mar-08 22:53

Hi all,

First of all, excuse me if this is a stupid question but, I would like to know whether there is any way that a dll can pass arguments to a exe.

Mant thanks in advance

Well, I'm not sure if this qualifies, but something like, starting an application from a shell function and in the file name path. one enters some arguments. i.e. C:\myApp.exe -testing

Then the exe can pick up the 'argument' passed by the dll

Makes sense?

Thanks for the reply

Re: DLL passing EXE parameters {mod}

12-Mar-08 23:11

You're still not very clear. I am assuming that you're spawning an executable from within a DLL by using something like ShellExecute(). If yes, the executable can pick up the 'argument' being passed on to it. Why not write a small program and test it out? Smile | :)
