Socket programming is really platform independent, but watch out for bit order. (LSB and MSB)
Consider it as posting bits through the cable.

Yes, it is platform independent, but you need to take care below points when going across different platform (in terms of processer)
1) Before send data, convert your data in to network type. (ex. using "htonl" function.)
2) if you passing whole structure as a binary data then need to take care about padding. (use __attribute__((__packed__)))

thanks.
But now i can't send or receive the data from Toolkit which i download. My application is in VC++ and Toolkit is in Java. Is there any function i have to add in my application.

is your toolkit is Socket server or socketclient. Are you connecting on right socket port?

After running your application at both side (server/client) check that your application able to bind on that port or not? You can use "netstat" command in window.

I use netstat and Telnet also and it bind the socket. But when i try to run my client program, it will wait or stop on "connect" function.
I place the client code below, please see, where is the problem.

Hey man, code is working, i have tested it.
I think something else in your application which is causing issue.
Just cross check below basic things
1. Message box not going background, and thats why you are feeling that program is stuck.
2. You have given right IP at client side.

Hi,
May i know whther is it possible to use UrldownloadToFile in batch file...if yes pls let me know...
|
|
|
|

I don't think so. However, you can use the API in an executable and run the executable from a batch file (command line parameters to control it, may be).

Yes, if you write a exe which uses the call.

yes you can, if you know how to load the dll and invote the api from it in bacth file.

Hi All
I have a problem to get information of connected USB Device.I am useing
OnMyDeviceChange(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam); function which is provide me all information.But when USB Device is connected all ready and my application is start after connecteion of USB Device then i havn't found any information of USB Device.Can any one give me advice to how to get connected USB Device information.Plz help me
|
|
|
|
|
1.You must use RegisterDeviceNotification() to let system notify you application.
2.Add message handler for WM_DEVICECHANGE.
|
|
|
|
|
i am useing both RegisterDeviceNotification and WM_DEVICECHANGE.And i am getting information when my application is running and USB Device is connect.But When my application is not running and USB drive is connected and my application is start after connection of USB Device then information is not showing.But USb Device is still connected.
So problem is that how to get information allready connection of USB Device.Plz help me

Your RegisterDeviceNotification[^] code is probably working correctly, however it will only detect changes while your application is running.
You failed to mention what type of USB device your application needs to enumerate. I will assume that you need all USB device types. You will essentially need to call SetupDiGetClassDevs[^] and pass the enumerator filter of "USB". Dont be frightened by the Windows Driver Kit references in the MSDN documentation. You will be able to use the SetupAPI without the DDK installed, although I believe you will need Platform SDK/Microsoft SDK.
The following link should be enough to get you started:
How to enumerate hardware devices by using SetupDi calls[^]
You should modify the Microsoft sample code to something like the following:
#pragma comment (lib,"Setupapi.lib")
hDevInfo = SetupDiGetClassDevs(NULL,"USB", 0,DIGCF_PRESENT | DIGCF_ALLCLASSES );
You can perform additional device filtering using the System-Supplied Device Setup Classes[^] or other Enumerator strings such as "USBSTOR".
Best Wishes,

Hi,
Have a look at the my article [^] which describes a class a wrote for detecting devices. The example screen shots show the detection of USB devices, amongst others. The code example
const GUID Guid = GUID_DEVCLASS_USB;
CDevInfo cDevInfo(m_hWnd, DIGCF_PRESENT , &Guid); shows how to use the class to detect just USB devices actually present.

Getting error
al error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'atlapp.h': No such file or directory
|
|
|
|

AtlApp.h is part of WTL. The article uses WTL for the windows, dialogs, listboxes etc. I guess you're using MFC?
|
|
|
|
|
|
OK, the classes depend on WTL, but I just tried some code an MFC dialog and started getting names of devices. I put this in OnInitDialog to test it as the first wizard generated comment shows. Try it. You'll need to #include devguid.h; and then put a break point on nMemberIndex++; and look at the name in szFriendlyName. After the first name go round the loop looking at the names.
const GUID Guid = GUID_DEVCLASS_PORTS;
DWORD Flags = DIGCF_PRESENT | DIGCF_DEVICEINTERFACE;
HDEVINFO hDevInfo = SetupDiGetClassDevs(&Guid, 0, 0, Flags);
BOOL bDevInfo;
int nMemberIndex = 0;
do{
SP_DEVINFO_DATA spDevInfoData;
spDevInfoData.cbSize = sizeof(SP_DEVINFO_DATA);
bDevInfo = ::SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo(hDevInfo, nMemberIndex, &spDevInfoData);
DWORD Property = SPDRP_FRIENDLYNAME;
wchar_t szFriendlyName[1024] = {0};
BOOL bGotRegProp = ::SetupDiGetDeviceRegistryProperty(hDevInfo, &spDevInfoData,
Property,
0L,
(PBYTE)szFriendlyName,
2048,
0);
nMemberIndex++;
}
while(bDevInfo);
Once you have this working then change GUID_DEVCLASS_PORTS for something that finds your device, but start with it as it is then were running the same code.
