Excellent advice, it seems very well explained. Are we sure it comes from microsoft?? OMG | :OMG:

I tried but it doesn't work. For it to work you'll need to use the old syntax (/clr:oldSyntax), which is incompatible with my application which uses a static library rather than dlls.
Thanks anyway

rp_suman's link is good, but there's a better article here on CP http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/avoidmultinstance.aspx[^]
This is particularly good to read if you have a GUI for your app.

Thanks, but it seems a bit complex for me.. D'Oh! | :doh:

Is there an alternative without having to use an object?
I'm relatively new to c++ and I haven't used objects in my program so far.

Well in that case you've got a lot of reading ahead of you!
Yes, you can do this without using classes, *but* the core technique outlined in the article really is the only good way to do this, as it properly deals with concurrency issues that many of the other approaches don't deal with, at least for an app that has a GUI. If you don't have a GUI then you may not need something as sophisticated.

Here's my solution:

/* MultipleInstance.h */
 
class MultipleInstance {
 
public:
 
    MultipleInstance();
    ~MultipleInstance();
 
    static bool Active();
 
private:
 
    static bool                 _Active;
 
    static bool                 _Initialized;
    static HANDLE               _Handle;
    static MultipleInstance     *_Instance;
 
};
 
/* MultipleInstance.cpp */
 
static MultipleInstance _MultipleInstance;
 
bool                MultipleInstance::_Active       = false;
 
bool                MultipleInstance::_Initialized  = false;
HANDLE              MultipleInstance::_Handle       = NULL;
MultipleInstance    *MultipleInstance::_Instance    = &_MultipleInstance;
 
MultipleInstance::MultipleInstance()
{
    if ((!_Initialized) && (this == _Instance)) {
 
        // create security descriptor to let all users access the semaphore
 
        SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR security_descriptor = { 0 };
 
        InitializeSecurityDescriptor(&security_descriptor,
                                     SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR_REVISION);
 
        SetSecurityDescriptorDacl(&security_descriptor,TRUE,NULL,FALSE);
 
        // create semaphore
 
        SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES security_attributes = { 0 };
 
        security_attributes.nLength              = sizeof(security_attributes);
        security_attributes.lpSecurityDescriptor = &security_descriptor;
        security_attributes.bInheritHandle       = FALSE;
 
        SetLastError(0);
 
        _Handle = ::CreateSemaphore(&security_attributes,0,1,
                                    _T("Global\\InstanceSemaphore"));
                                    /* change "InstanceSemaphore" to your desired name */
 
        if (GetLastError() == ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS) {
            _Active = true;
        }
 
        _Initialized = true;
 
    }
}
 
MultipleInstance::~MultipleInstance()
{
    if (_Initialized && (this == _Instance)) {
 
        if (_Handle != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) &&
           (_Handle != NULL)) {
 
            CloseHandle(_Handle);
            _Handle = NULL;
 
        }
 
    }
}
 
bool MultipleInstance::Active()
{
    return _Active;
}

Hi, many many thanks for the advice but not being familiar to oject programming I am missing some crucial bits to make it work.

In MultipleInstance.h what name should I give to:
#ifndef
#define
Is there anything else I need to specify?

In MultipleInstance.cpp I have specified:
#include <iostream>
#include "MultipleInstance.h"
Is anything else needed?

In the main cpp file:
What is the correct syntax I need to use to call the object?
Should I insert it immediately after
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]){

Get how much bytes transferred CFTPConnetion and PutFile()

chetanjoshi95-Apr-08 1:49

I am using CFTPConection class.
While uploading file via PutFile() function I also want to display
the destianion file size i.e. data uploaded up to perticaulr instant.

I could not make the connetion for that file as it is uploding i.e. it's open for writting.

So is there any way to check how much data transferred up to perticuar time. This value amy be in number of bytes.

Or is there is any othere option rather than Putfile() which uses buffer so that I can check buffer size..

please help me for this..

Thank you so much..

seting a blank date as the initial value for Date Time Picker control

Hai all,

Can anyone suggest me how to set a blank date as the initial value for date time picker control?

I did as per the article : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q238077/ [^]

I am currently using VC++ 6.0 and i get the following errors:
error C2039: 'SetCustomFormat' : is not a member of 'CDateTimeCtrl'
d:\program files\microsoft visual studio\vc98\mfc\include\afxdtctl.h(39) : see declaration of 'CDateTimeCtrl'

Is there any other way to do so?

Hi,

The steps 1,2,3 mentioned in top may be for MS Date Time Picker Activex control and steps 1 & 2 bottom could be for the Windows Date Time Picker.

You try the steps 1 & 2 at bottom.

Thanks,
Suman

Still it didnt work after doing step 1 and 2.

And fyi.. the if we do setwindowtext with empty text, then in that case itself we dont set a blank date, instead the the control displays the current system time with a default format.

Hi,

If you have not yet solved the problem, please post it as new message again.

It will be better posting your code.

It may be a programming bug or VC++.

Have you tried other styles[^]other than DTS_SHORTDATEFORMAT?

It seems there are some problem already related with Datetimecontrol: DateTimePicker Format changes from Time to Short Date[^]

Thanks,

marshall interface needed?

George_George4-Apr-08 21:33

4-Apr-08 21:33

Hello everyone,

When we have cross-apartment call (inside one process) from ... to ...,

1. STA --> MTA;
2. MTA --> STA.

In both cases we must use either GIT (global interface table) or CoMarshalInterThreadInterfaceInStream?

If call method on destination apartment through interface pointer of component of destination apartment directly is violation (bypass the above two methods)?

(for example, sharing raw interface pointer directly in global variable and call methods on interface pointer directly)

thanks in advance,
George

asynchronous and synchronous call between apartments

George_George4-Apr-08 21:24

George_George

4-Apr-08 21:24

Hello everyone,

Once I thought all calls across COM apartments (not inside apartment) are all synchronous call, now after study re-entrancy problem, I think I am wrong, at least STA to MTA call is asynchronous.

(Link to re-entrancy problem, http://www.codeproject.com/KB/COM/sta_issues.aspx)

After some study, I can not find a conclusion whether the 4 types of calls are synchronous or asynchronous. Here is my study result, please feel free to correct me if I am wrong?

1. STA --> STA, I think asynchronous;
2. STA --> MTA, I think asynchronous;
3. MTA --> STA, I think synchronous;
4. MTA --> MTA, I think synchronous.

thanks in advance,
George

How come I can WM_CLOSE an out-of-process Notepad but can't get it to display a WM_CHAR?

glyfyx4-Apr-08 16:12

In my simple win32 pgm I launch Notepad,
CreateProcess("c:\\winnt\\notepad.exe"...

then get a handle to it,
hwndTarget = FindWindow(NULL, TEXT("Untitled - Notepad"));

then close it with no problem,
SendMessage(hwndTarget, WM_CLOSE, 0, 0);

But if instead of closing it I try to Post/Send it a character to display
PostMessage (hwndTarget, WM_CHAR, 'x', 1) ;
SendMessage (hwndTarget, WM_CHAR, 'z', 1) ;
it doesn't work.

So I'm missing something here, but don't know what it is.

Thanks for any assistance!

The problem is that you're sending the messages to the main window.
Maybe the edit control that processes the chars is a child window of the main. You can find it with spy++.

Hope it helps
