Hi All,
my objective is to create a .MD5 file using Rehash.exe which will be called by CreatedProcess().
if i run from command line its working fine
C:\temp>rehash.exe -none -md5 "C:\temp\aaa.TFI" > "C:\temp\aaa.MD5"
but if i implement in code and use CreateProcess, its not working
below is the code snippet
int main()
{
STARTUPINFO si;
PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;
ZeroMemory( &si, sizeof(si) );
si.cb = sizeof(si);
ZeroMemory( &pi, sizeof(pi) );
LPSTR lp_rehashEXE = "C:\\temp\\rehash.exe";
LPSTR lp_Parameter = " -none -md5 C:\\temp\\Praveer.TFI > C:\\temp\\Praveer.MD5";
if(!::CreateProcess(lp_rehashEXE, lp_Parameter, NULL, NULL, false, 0, NULL, NULL, &si, &pi))
{
printf( "CreateProcess failed (%d)\n", GetLastError() );
return false;
}
// Wait until child process exits.
::WaitForSingleObject(pi.hProcess, INFINITE );
// Close process handles.
CloseHandle( pi.hProcess );
return 0;
}
Please help!!!

"is not working" is a poor report. Could you please tell use more? Moreover, in the two different tests (namely command line and CreateProcess call) why don't you give exactly the same arguments to Rehash?

Look at the documentation of CreateProcess[^]
Now look carefully at the difference between the first and second parameter types - LPCTSTR and LPTSTR respectively.
The first is a constant string and the second is not a constant.
In your code, you're using a pointer to a read-only memory location, which is like a constant string.
Here is an excerpt from the documentation -
The Unicode version of this function, CreateProcessW, can modify the contents of this string. Therefore, this parameter cannot be a pointer to read-only memory (such as a const variable or a literal string).

It works, you just dont have rehash.exe in C.\temp
I compiled your code and it and it worked.

One parent dialog is containing 2 child dialog but one at a time.
I need to resize one and not to resize other.
How can I do?
|
|
|
|
|
What's wrong in calling SetWindowPos[^] just for the right child?
Veni, vidi, vici.

You need to do it manually.
Get the parent dialog client size (CWnd::GetClientRect) and use either CWnd::MoveWindow or CWnd::SetWindowPos to move/resize the child dialog of your choice.
be careful about the CRect that is returned by GetClientRect, you might have to use ScreenToClient to ClientToScreen to convert the rect before move/resize the child dialogs.
I'd rather be phishing!

The Microsoft Web page discussing "Quote: Socket overlapped I/O versus blocking/nonblocking mode
found here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/181611[^]
states:
Quote: To create a socket with the overlapped I/O attribute, you can either use the socket API or the WSASocket API with the WSA_FLAG_OVERLAPPED flag set.
(I added the bolds in the above quote.) What is the difference between socketAPI and WSASocket API?
Please show a code fragment that creates a socket with socket API and another that creates it with WSASocket API.
Thank you for your time

The functions such as socket[^] are the old style socketAPI group, based on BSD sockets from the early days of UNIX. The WSAxxx functions are the later Microsoft adaptation.
|
|
|
|
|
Is there a difference in speed?
Edit: My email shows another response that says
Quote: The main difference is that socket is a function in the C runtime, and WSASocket is a Windows API.
That response does not show up when I log in here. So can I presume that the WSAxxx versions are faster since they bypass the C runtime, which are, presumably, wrappers that then call the API internally?

No, you cannot presume anything. It is quite possible (but I don't know) that WSA is built on top of sockets rather than being a complete re-implementation.

That response was from me. I deleted it because it was wrong. The socket function is not in the C runtime. I'm sorry to have misled you.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Hi bkelly13 !
The "WSASocket API" are Microsoft-specific new functions for handling sockets in Windows.
If your code is to run on Windows machines only go with this new API since it provides more flexibility and some functionality benefits when working with types of sockets other than blocking.
Here are some qoutes from the Remarks paragraph in the MSDN regarding WSARecv:
Quote: The WSARecv function provides some additional features compared with the standard recv function in three important areas:
•It can be used in conjunction with overlapped sockets to perform overlapped recv operations.
•It allows multiple receive buffers to be specified making it applicable to the scatter/gather type of I/O.
•The lpFlags parameter is used both on input and returned on output, allowing applications to sense the output state of the MSG_PARTIAL flag bit. However, the MSG_PARTIAL flag bit is not supported by all protocols.
Same goes for WSASend:
Quote: The WSASend function provides functionality over and above the standard send function in two important areas:
•It can be used in conjunction with overlapped sockets to perform overlapped send operations.
•It allows multiple send buffers to be specified making it applicable to the scatter/gather type of I/O.
You can also find code examples for working with these API in there.
I have created and worked with sockets using this API (Blocking mode and event-based Overlapped mode) and overall it seems to work fine. If relevant, I can send you the code.
 Bye,
Amit C.

I understand and am going with the WSA series. I am putting significant effort into this project. If you have code you don't mind sending, I will look at it. I am declaring my code as open source and will post it. Please send to user name "online" with that symbol followed by my domain bkelly then further followed by dot "ws", yes, its just that simple.
Thank you for the time you spent on your reply.

I am drawing (ownerdraw) a button. I used
if ( (state & ODS_SELECTED) || (state & ODS_FOCUS ))
{
}
to check selected state. Problem is this....If I call BN_CLICKED from parent window then control does not come into above condition but if I click button its working fine.
Please suggest how to set state to ODS_SELECTED?
|
|
|
|
|
The BN_CLICKED message is send to the parent window of a button when it is clicked. It is send by the button control, not to it.
If you want to simulate a button click, send the BM_CLICK[^] message to the button control.
|
|
|
|
|
It is fine but it does not solve my issue. I am calling as you said but still contols dont go into that condition.
I also tried to set SetFocus() function but no luck!!!
|
|
|
|
|
I have just tested it with an owner draw button in one of my applications. When BM_CLICK is send and the button did not had the focus, the DrawItem() member function is called with the ODS_FOCUS state bit set. The same applies when calling the SetFocus() member function of the button.
So it seems that there is another error in your code. You may set a break point in your DrawItem() function and/or write the state to the debug window using trace() to check when and with which states your drawing function is called.

Hello. I have been, somehow  , able to capture video from my USB camera using media foundation api. But the problem is that for a duration of about 10 seconds, the video size is 70-72 mb. I don't have to tell you that, that is a lot of video size for this duration.
I have tried lowering Frame Rate and AVG BitRate of the video stream but in vain. What should I change to get this size to minimum? Thanks for any pointers.

It is little hard to tell you exactly what your best course of action is, because you have left out some key information, such as image resolution, video format and frame rate.
However, your numbers are typical if you are storing uncompressed video with the following settings:
Resolution: 352x288
Video format: AVI, Raw video (RGB or YUV) at 24 bits per pixel
Frame rate: 25 FPS.
[Resolution and Frame rate based on PAL being the TV standard used in Pakistan]
If the above values seem correct to you, you need to compress the video in order to make the video size smaller. There are obviously many video formats, such as MJPEG, MPEG2, MPEG4, H.264 and so on. You would need to determine the best fit for your project.
Your USB camera might be able to deliver compressed video in different formats, but if it does not, you will have to do the compression on your computer as the raw video frames are being received from the camera.
If I am dead wrong and you are actually storing high resolution images, then we need to come at this from another angle.

Camera is giving me the video with following attributes.
Resolution = 640 x 480;
Frame Rate = 30 fps;
Color Scheme = RGB32
Encoding Format = WMV;
Since I am storing video data as .wmv, does't it mean that video being stored is compressed (or encoded) ?

Yes, your video is compressed, but not by much. If you do the calculation to see how large a 10 second uncompressed video file would be using your values, you get something like this:
640 * 480 * (32/8) * 30 * 10 = 368,640,000 = 352 MB
This shows that the raw video is about 5 times larger than your compressed video. That is not an impressive compression ratio at all, so you should consider switching to H.264 as suggested by SuperCoder2014.
