In OnDraw() im doing like this.Initailly i store all 100 pages name in FName array.
Im destroying this varaibles in OnDestroy() using delete operator when im closing the window.

But calling the DistroyWindow isn't enough.
Check whether the create() function is successful, or you may end up in creating the window every time you enter paint event which will run your app out to memory soon.
Try using the single glg_animation instead of an array, as you're creating / deleting the pages dynamically. This will reduce your memory usage, as at a time only one object will be in use from an array.

"The waveInAddBuffer function sends an input buffer to the given waveform-audio input device. When the buffer is filled, the application is notified."
Please translate this geek talk to English for me please.
I am having an issue understanding what exactly is going on in waweInxxx API.
I understand the need to do waveInPrepareHeader which INHO prepares the buffer and not the header. Now I need to do waveInAddBuffer to "connect" the device to this buffer / header.
After waveInStart and as soon as this buffer is filled "the application is notified."
In my case via callback function which gets WIM_DATA.
Now I can process the buffer / header. I am saving the data into file.
Two questions - since the device is still opened it could fill up THE SAME BUFFER again if I keep it "connected" via waveInAddBuffer.
So, can I just cleanup the buffer and be done or do I need to "reconnect" it?
The second question - how many of these buffers are needed assuming they can be reused as I described?
I would guess I could miss some data while processing the current content of the buffer if I do this.
So, how do I keep track of multiple buffers?
Any constructive help will be as always appreciated.
Cheers
Vaclav

I wouldn't use any less than two buffers. How many you use would depend on how much processing time there is for each buffer and how long the buffers are (time-wise).
You don't need to unprepare and prepare the buffers each time you receive a filled buffer. Prepare them all and add them with waveInAddBuffer before starting capture. Unprepare them all after stopping. As you receive each filled buffer you can just re-queue it with waveInAddBuffer.
To keep track of all the buffers? Put them in an array or some other collection

Thanks Mark.
I think I am beginning to see the light.
What I met by keeping track of the buffers - the callback function executes when the current buffer is filled with data.
Now I do this:
if(WHDR_DONE==(WHDR_DONE & pHeader->dwFlags))
{
// writes a specified number of bytes to a file
lBytesWritten = mmioWrite(m_hOPFile,pHeader->lpData,pHeader->dwBytesRecorded);
mRes = waveInAddBuffer(m_hWaveIn,pHeader,sizeof(WAVEHDR));
}
That puts the current buffer back to what - buffer queue? I prepared 3 buffers.
So how does the OS knows about this queue?
Do I have to do waveInReset before I put it back?
What will happen if I screw up and run out of buffers?
One more - I cannot find anywhere how did the paramater1 became the WAVEHDR pointer.
There must be some "common" standard for the first parameter because I see similar stuff in creating worker thread.
BTW is there any trick you know how to verify that the buffer data is valid?
I am obviously getting "buffer full" by executing the callback, but get 0 in dwBytesRecorded. I am guessing my format setup is wrong.

The system keeps track of the buffers once you hand them over using waveInAddBuffer()
Vaclav_Sal wrote: Do I have to do waveInReset before I put it back?
You don't have to do anything, especially don't call waveInReset() which stops recording and releases all the buffers.
Vaclav_Sal wrote: What will happen if I screw up and run out of buffers?
Gaps in the audio maybe? I'm not sure - you may have to look that up, or try recording with one buffer and see what happens
Vaclav_Sal wrote: I cannot find anywhere how did the paramater1 became the WAVEHDR pointer.
Documented![^]. Yes it may be a common API design in Win32, but isn't related to anything else.
Vaclav_Sal wrote: I am obviously getting "buffer full" by executing the callback
YOU shouldn't be executing the callback. Callbacks are called by the system, which is why they are called callbacks If you are calling it then that's wrong!
In your callback function, check the message. If it's WIM_DATA then check the flags in the WAVEHDR struct. If the WHDR_DONE flag is set then waveInReset was called so don't add the buffer back in. Else look at the dwBytesRecorded value for how many bytes are there. I suppose if it's 0 just put it back in with waveInAdd.
If the format is wrong then you should know that when you call waveInOpen() - long before you set up buffers.

Mark, I need to rephrase my comments.
I am questioning the process after the callback function is being executed as a result of the buffer / header being full.
In one of the codes I have been learning from I found the following snippet
case WIM_DATA:
{
TRACE("%d",pHdr->dwUser);
if(WHDR_DONE==(WHDR_DONE &pHdr->dwFlags))
{
mmioWrite(m_hOPFile,pHdr->lpData,pHdr->dwBytesRecorded);
mRes=waveInAddBuffer(m_hWaveIn,pHdr,sizeof(WAVEHDR));
if(mRes!=0)
StoreError(mRes,TRUE,"File: %s ,Line Number:%d",__FILE__,__LINE__);
}
…
I feel since the callback receives WIM_DATA message cheking for header WHDR_DONE is redundant.
However, I do question how dwByteRecored can be 0 if the buffer was being full.
Obviously it is not full.
So how did the callback got to be executed with no data recorded?

That looks wrong to me unless there's only one buffer and the entire recording is done in that one buffer. But then it doesn't make sense because it calls waveInAddBuffer()...
I think it should be
if(WHDR_DONE != (WHDR_DONE &pHdr->dwFlags))
Vaclav_Sal wrote: I feel since the callback receives WIM_DATA message cheking for header WHDR_DONE is redundant.
If you look at the WIM_DATA documentation it states "The message can be sent when the buffer is full or after the waveInReset function is called. ". So when waveInReset is called the buffer will probably be empty and the WHDR_DONE flag will be set. That's what your check above is failing on....try switching it to !=

Thanks for your help Mark
I finally managed to start, record and stop an audio file.
When I step thru the process first two "buffers" have no data recorded.
As you suggested , I just return the empty buffer back into the queue.
As far as I can tell there is nothing missing in the file and no waveInReset was performed.
But is is really noisy – background noise. I'll play with it to see how to improve the noise.

Hi all,
char possibles[37] = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789";
i am renerating random string with help of rand function.
how can i calculate the maximum combination for generate random string of given length?
like if i give length = 4?
so how cany maximum string generated of length 4 from given cahr array?
please help me for this.
thanks in advance.

It's known as Permutation[^], and there's formulae on that page that answers your question.
By the way, this is not even a programming question, and has nothing to do with C++ or MFC.

If order is important you have to use "Permutation". Otherwise you have to use "Combination". You have to select 4 characters out of the 36 characters. 36c4 is what you need. 36!/32!*4! is the way to calculate if my memory is good.

Depends on whether or not a character may be repeated in a string.
If so, it's very,very,very easy:
# combinations = pow(numCharsToChooseFrom, lengthOfGeneratedString)
4 char string - 37^4 = 1,874,161
5 char string - 37^5 = 69,343,957
If a character may not be repeated, it is a little more involved.
# combinations = (numCharsToChooseFrom!) / ((numCharsToChooseFrom-lengthOfGeneratedString)!)
4 character string - 37 * 36 * 35 * 34 = 1,585,080
5 char string - 37 * 36 * 35 * 34 * 33 = 52,307,640
or to put it more simply
4 character string - (37! / 33!) = 1,585,080
5 char string - (37! / 32!) = 52,307,640
Where the ! operator means factorial[^].

I found ReadFile operation is slow. Is there ay way to make it fast? Or is there any assemble code available to read from file/disk
|
|
|
|

Often times, when disk-io needs to be sped-up there are gains to be made in the way that the data is accessed -but not so much (if any gain) available in the function used to get that data.
For example - if you have (say)a million pieces of data stored in a file, it's a better(faster) option to use ReadFile just once and read in the 1,000,000 pieces of data than it is to call the function 1,000,000 times to read 1 piece of data.
Provided you're running in an OS with protected memory (i.e not DOS), no - not practically. You could attempt to write some low level code, but I'd suspect that the folk that wrote that part of windows would be more capable of speed than you. 
Are you able to elaborate on the conditions in which you're using ReadFile, and the reasons you've come to the conclusion it's slow? It's very likely that algorithmic improvements can be made.
