It is always good to have the latest SDK installed.
You can turn off UAC by going to Control Panel -> User Accounts.
There you will find a link called Turn User Account Control on or off.

Probably! You say it worked fine under 2000.

Vista has changed many things in subtle ways, IMHO in most cases for no good reason.

One way around this (although not elegant),is to set up a try/catch block.

With some carefull crafting, maybe you can even elicit the same behaviour for the User under Vista as under 2000. This would obviate a need for two versions of your software.

Hi thank you for reply...

Actually we are using SYBASE SDK11.1.1 in MS-2000....But In Vista OS,Microsoft has come with SDK 12.5.1
Can you please tell am i getting this problem because of the SDK?
Should i install the same SDK into my Vista Machine??
AND

Actually my code is like this..I am using a callback function in my application...
if (dlg.DoModal() != IDOK) {
PostQuitMessage(0);
return 0;
}
else {
lstrcpyn(_loginfo.dbpwd, dlg.m_csPassword, 31);
lstrcpyn(_loginfo.dbid, dlg.m_csUser, 31);
lstrcpyn(_loginfo.dbsrv, dlg.m_csServer, 31);
lstrcpyn(_loginfo.dbdb, dlg.m_csDatabase, 31);
}
_dbproc = dbConnect (&_loginfo, _T("Phoenix"));

if (_dbproc != NULL)
break;

msg = (::GetKeyState (VK_CAPITAL) & 0x0001) ? IDS_ERR_LOGINFAILEDCAPS : IDS_ERR_LOGINFAILED;

if (AfxMessageBox (msg, MB_OKCANCEL | MB_ICONHAND) == IDCANCEL) {
PostQuitMessage(0);
return 0;
}
}
And CALLBACK function is like this....
At below code(bolded) my application getting crashed...

DBPROCESS NEAR * CALLBACK dbConnect (LPLOGINFO li, LPSTR app)

{
DBPROCESS NEAR *dbproc;

LOGINREC *login;

if ((login = dblogin ()) == NULL)
return (DBPROCESS NEAR *) NULL;

DBSETLHOST (login, _dbhost);
DBSETLUSER (login, li->dbid);
DBSETLPWD (login, li->dbpwd);
DBSETLAPP (login, app);

dbproc = dbopen (login, li->dbsrv);

dbfreelogin (login);

if (dbproc != (DBPROCESS NEAR *) NULL)
dbuse (dbproc, li->dbdb);

return dbproc;
}
My control is not coming to _dbproc from the CALLBACK function
So without i get return value how can i apply try and catch..

can you please help further..

I am Unfamiliar with SyBase, I just gave a general approach to such a problem.
What is your Target Platform. If it is Vista Only, maybe you should try the Upgrade. If it is a mixture of systems, Common sense states that you should consider if the new SDK is compatible with all the platforms your customers have.

That does not matter, you do not need a return value if things go wrong. An exception was thrown somewhere, you must catch it yourself, if you don't the System will catch it, and close down your app.
Just try something like:

for(;;){
    try{
     if (dbproc != (DBPROCESS NEAR *) NULL){
        dbuse (dbproc, li->dbdb);

        return dbproc;
      }
    }
    catch(...){
      AfxMessageBox("Invalid Name or Password");
      continue;
    }
}//FOR

In the above if anything in the try{ } block throws an exception, control will be passed to the code in your
catch{ } block, Here you handle the exception by showing a Messagebox, and try again.

The above will probably some work, but I hope you get the General Idea. (A good idea would be to allow the user to enter a New Password, or, to exit ).

Facing problem with Sockets in Win2008

22-Oct-09 1:41

hi sorry for the late reply....

i tried like this

if ((login = dblogin ()) == NULL)
return (DBPROCESS NEAR *) NULL;

DBSETLHOST (login, _dbhost);
DBSETLUSER (login, li->dbid);
DBSETLPWD (login, li->dbpwd);
DBSETLAPP (login, app);

try
{
dbproc = dbopen (login, li->dbsrv);
}
catch(..)
{
some code.....
}

dbopen is a Sybase function,in which the control is going(when calling dbopen() function)
But the control is not comming back to handle the exception..

Hi,
We are using raw sockets with IPPROTO_ICMP. We are facing problem in Win2008. When the network cable of the server machine is removed then Winsock api Select( ) is returning wrong value.Due to that we are observing behavior difference in Win2003 and Win2008.

We have the following code in our application.

int bread;
SOCKET sockRaw;
sockRaw = WSASocket(
AF_INET,
SOCK_RAW,
IPPROTO_ICMP,
NULL, 0,0);
//All socket connection and initialization code
fd_set set = {1,{sockRaw}};
timeval timeValue = {TIMEOUT_PERIOD_SEC, 0};
bread = select(NULL,&set,NULL,&set,&timeValue

If we remove the network cable of the server application ie., network failure then bread is 0 in Win2003, 1 in Win2008 . Due to this we are observing a behavior difference in the application in a particular scenario. What needs to be done so that bread is 0 even in Win2008 in case of network failure.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks..

I have made a custom Button with text on the button.
I want to change the color of button, color of the text on the button and the border color on the button . I have to use CColorDialog to select the desired color.

Anyone know the way, how to do this?
