DllExport Function crashing

I am exporting a function something like show below:
extern "C" DllExport const char* ActivatePlot(CString szPlot);

When I call this function from another DLL or module, the application crashes while returning from the function "ActivatePlot".
From the call-stack I found that the control is in the destructor of CString object and is trying to free the memory using FreeStore().

Can you explain whether we can use CString object in a DllExport functions? And if not, why?

CString uses dynamic memory allocation to store its strings. When you pass a CString object about, if it needs to re-allocate at any point, it will make use of the current heap manager to allocate the memory. If your doing this in MFC with the MFC library as a shared DLL, you should only have the one heap manager. If your not, then you will find that you are trying to de-allocate an allocation from one heap manager with an allocation from the other - which is probably the problem here. In such cases as this, can you not just pass in the szPlot as a const char * pointer? You need to avoid passing about objects that will do this.

DDV functions

Hi Everybody,
I have a class which is being derived from CDialog class.
class CEventDialog : public CDialog {
private:
CString m_sEventDesc;
int m_iHours;
int m_iMin;
// Other implementation has been removed from the class.
};

The deifination for DoDataExchange is as follows:

void CEventDialog::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX) {

CDialog::DoDataExchange(pDX);
DDX_Text(pDX,IDC_ADDSTRHR,this->m_iHours);
DDV_MinMaxInt(pDX,this->m_iHours,1,24);
DDX_Text(pDX,IDC_EDITDESC,this->m_sEventDesc);
DDV_MaxChars(pDX,this->m_sEventDesc,20);
DDX_Text(pDX,IDC_ADDSTRMIN,this->m_iMin);
DDV_MinMaxInt(pDX,this->m_iMin,1,59);
}

The problem which i am facing is that if i enter an invalid value for iMin data variable , the DDV_MinMaxInt function displays a message box without any message in it. How should i display the used defined message in the Message Nox which is being created by DDV_MinMaxInt function?

Regards
Dinesh

Have you stepped into DDV_MinMaxInt() to see why it is failing to retrieve the text?

I did that :
DDV_MinMaxInt internally calls _AfxFailMinMaxWithFormat function

AFX_STATIC void AFXAPI _AfxFailMinMaxWithFormat(CDataExchange* pDX,
long minVal, long maxVal, LPCTSTR lpszFormat, UINT nIDPrompt)
{
ASSERT(lpszFormat != NULL);
if (!pDX->m_bSaveAndValidate)
{
TRACE0("Warning: initial dialog data is out of range.\n");
return; // don't stop now
}
TCHAR szMin[32];
TCHAR szMax[32];
wsprintf(szMin, lpszFormat, minVal);
wsprintf(szMax, lpszFormat, maxVal);
CString prompt;
AfxFormatString2(prompt, nIDPrompt, szMin, szMax);
AfxMessageBox(prompt, MB_ICONEXCLAMATION, nIDPrompt);
prompt.Empty(); // exception prep
pDX->Fail();
}
The prompt variable comes out to be empty. Do I have to explicitly create a String Resource and pass that resource in one of these functions ?

So what is the value of CEventDialog::iMin, minVal, and maxVal at this point?

Hello,

You can try the following in the OnInitDialog:
CEdit* pEditControl = (CEdit*)GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1);
if(pEditControl)
{
pEditControl->SetLimitText(6) ;
}

Hope this works..

ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED and openprocesstoken()

dp522-Dec-03 17:01

22-Dec-03 17:01

I am trying to get process status information(cpu time, mem usage, etc) on all processes running on my Win XP system using C.

I have elevated the privilege of the current process to SE_DEBUG_NAME, but I get ERROR_ACCES_DENIED when I call OpenProcessToken() for the the following processes:

alg.exe
svchost.exe
svchost.exe

Task Manager reports that the user names for these processes are LOCAL SERVICE, LOCAL SERVICE, and NETWORK SERVICE respectively.

My goal is to extract the user sid from the process token so that I can display the user name like Task Manager does.

My program works for all other processes (except "idle").

1) What do I have to do to access the tokens for these processes?

It seems as if my current process is denied access to the process
token if the user name is either LOCAL SERVICE or NETWORK SERVICE.

2) How do I extract the same info for the idle process?

Thanks in advance

hi..

You can use like that..

BOOL CYourDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
    {
    // TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class
      if(pMsg->message==WM_KEYDOWN)
      {
         UINT nChar=(UINT)pMsg->wParam;
          if(nChar==VK_UP )
          {
            //What you want to do......      
          }
       }
    return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
    }

good luck.... Smile | :)

Virtual CListView page scrolling

22-Dec-03 15:57

I am using a CListView derived class and using it as a virtual list control to display over 30,000 items from a database. Its all working very good, my only complaint is about the scrolling effect when doing a page down or page up. It looks like the whole page is scrolled (up or down) before the items are repainted and is very noticeable. I would like the view to be redrawn faster (avoiding the scroll effect). Just like when you go to the end or top, by pressing the End or Home keys.

I know that the scrolling effect is good when dragging the thumb of the scrollbar, but for page up and down, for an entire page it is not good.

Anyone knows how to get rid of the scrolling affect ?

thanks,
Louis.
