| Am I getting this all wrong? I thought you wanted to make a driver, but now you talk about New Project with VC++,COM and etc., which has nothing to do with drivers. WinDDK isn't VC++, it's a framework for making drivers (like network/usb/printer/display drivers). Sorry, just have to make sure we're having the same thing in mind, otherwise we'd just confuse each other. There is sufficient light for those who desire to see, and there is sufficient darkness for those of a contrary disposition.

Well not a driver, but a USB HID device - so sort of a driver? I've got this credit card reader that is a USBHID device - so you need to use the WinDDK. Here's my story - I actually got this working in VC++ 6.0 about 3 years ago and now I can't figure out how to setup my project anymore. But that's just what I did - I created a COM object and linked to the DDK (from VC++ 6.0). Now I've upgraded to VC++ 2008 and just want to take the best route - if I have to learn the right way of doing it along the way, BONUS! I'm all ears. Just because I got it working before doesn't mean it was the best way of doing it anyway - and just the same, I can't get my project linked with MFC.

| Yes, I see now why you were talking about VC++. The thing is, WinDDK comes with its own compiler, which is 'annointed' (i.e. official and supported) by the DDK development team. WinDDK is intended to work with it. Now, that doesn't mean it won't work with other compilers - you've made it work with VC6, but that's not how it's intended (by microsoft) to be compiled. What I did was I used their official compiler which comes with WinDDK and is in fact in the directory (C:\WinDDK\bin or something). So if you really want to use VS2008 I can't be of much help because that's not how I did it. I used the WinDDK official compiler. See if this thread (http://www.osronline.com/showthread.cfm?link=151863) can help you, they talk about how to make it work with VS2008 there. There is sufficient light for those who desire to see, and there is sufficient darkness for those of a contrary disposition.

Hi
I'm having a mfc dialog box application as a dll. I want to send any event (button press) in the dll to the application that calls the dll. how to do that. Anybody can please help me.
Thanks

May be you can pass the handle of the main window to the dll( in some initilization function ) and when button click occures you can send a message( RegisterWindowMessage() ) to the main dialogbox from the dll indicating the button press.

|

thanks. I could do by Inheritting the dll class and implementing the virtual function.
Thanks again

He might have a dialog created with DoModal in the DLL, with all the code of the dialog in the DLL. Then he can't call directly to functions from the parent app (that has loaded the DLL).

Why would the DLL ever need to know anything about the application that has loaded it?! Leave alone executing code from that. 
But I'm still not sure of what the OP is trying to achieve and I'll leave it up to the OP to precisely explain the issue.

I'm a rookie to C and i'm looking for some libraries to learn,something likes the C++ STL or Boost ,does any1 can tell me some of them?Thanks a lot

You should learn STL[^] and Boost[^].
By the time you learn them, you will no longer be a rookie.

Hello,
I have a little Win32 Windows app in C. It accepts filename as argument and calculates MD5 hash for the file. The dialog based app should show up with MD5 calculated. When I put hashing function to be executed under WM_INITDIALOG it fails and MD5 hash is not calculated. When should I execute it? I have tried WM_PAINT but md5 hashing gets executed all time then. Please help when should I begin hashing in this app.
I have VB6 background I remember I used to place all start up code under Form - OnLoad function. But in Win32 it is getting so hard. Please help a newbie.

You can still do the processing in response to WM_INITDIALOG, but only indirectly. Consider something like:
LRESULT CALLBACK DialogProc( HWND hDlg, UINT uMsg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam )
{
switch (uMsg)
{
case WM_INITDIALOG:
PostMessage(hDlg, user_defined_message);
break;
case user_defined_message:
break;
default:
return FALSE;
}
return TRUE;
}

Thank you and others who took time to respond. Its working now

Ugh... The dude is using things like WM_USER+1 to define a "unique message" and such 'technique' is bound to break some day. I'd use RegisterWindowMessage [^] instead...

I am an novice programmer and eager to learn as fast as it is possible to learn so i decided to move to solve the programming puzzles but i don't know i step up for this. Which book I prefer to start as a programmer to solve programming puzzles.
Pls enlist some good books or any other resource from where I learn some related to solving programming puzzles.
Thanx in advance.
