Same if I use a custom dlg with DoModal instead of a message box.

You need to create a Modaless dialog rather. It's simple, instead of calling doModal, you need to call Create() & ShowWindow(),

so why dont you do a google/yahoo search on Cinternetsession ? and see what you find - this is not the first time you've posted such a question here - you have to be a little self reliant ...

there is a directory containing the executable image file and there is another directory called "process current diretory" and every current diretory per process.

Indeed, what is current directory and where is it?

Any one can help me?

as opposed to

basicly, it's what the command CD used to set when people used DOS

so if you open the dos box and type:

CD C:\mydir\
"C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe"

notepad would have a current directory C:\mydir, not C:\WINDOWS

but since in a GUI you can't explicitly change the current directory i'm not sure what use it has anymore

I have looked all over the web for a simple serial read/write program in C++ so that i can study it and learn the process of serial communications by EXAMPLE. I have tried the serial library and the demos on this site as well as a bunch of other sites. All i need is a simple program that sends a string to the com port of my choosing with the baud, parity, etc of my choosing. The variables can be simply manipulated and recompiled. I just want to learn this and I am not that experienced with c++, so all the MSDN stuff is confusing to me.

Anything that can mimic a hyper terminal would be more than ideal.

Thanks,

I wrote a console program in UNICODE to surpport multi-language

But the DEBUG and RELEASE have diffirent results

I've already defined _UNICODE,UNICODE

who can tell me? Thank you !~~

And my console can output UNICODE character , just output a number

how can I do ?

Thanks~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You need to set them for both Release & debug's property pages. Did you do that for both?

I just set them in project->settings

delete _MBCS and add _UNICODE,UNICODE

I am wondering if I use TCHAR cause this problem

because for ansi build TCHAR = char

How I change the setting for both of them

This is the first time using UNICODE

Poke tongue | ;-P

Thank you VuNic

Eytukan6-Mar-09 21:17

If you are using TCHAR then there shouldn't be a problem. But it also counts how are you using it.

Yes, this is fine. You need to repeat the same after you choose "Release" version. Because the settings you give in the project properties in debug mode applies only to debug versions. ReDo the same after you choose "Release". This is what I asked you to check.

I will check that

Now I am not at my computer

About TCHAR I use in a struct

struct WORD_DATA
{
    TCHAR word[10];
    unsigned int hashVal;
    unsigned int localAddr;
};

This struct is for READ & WRITE a UNICODE word file

It saves the data about word so I can use them to segmentation

So is that TCHAR using correct??

and what suggestion do you have forme in UNICODE programming?
