What are some good books for shell programming? One by Dino Esposito is out of print and its really old. If I can find it is it still useful?
Thanks,

Yeah, I believe it's really good. I got a different book, 2nd hand, which was also good, but I forget what it was called. Yeah, I'm just a world of useful info....

I'm using MSHTML and creating a URLMoniker to browse to a web page. Using IPropertyNotifySink::OnChanged works fine for a successfull page, but is there any way to get the http status so I can detect failures?

What I want to do is when a program prints something , and the printer icon appears in the notification area that my program is also run, or to have my program already running but it can detect when another program prints something.
All my program does right now is allow the user to enter how many pages he/she printed in color and/or black and white.
Thank you.

I am learning using CSocket to send/receive message through net,but here's some problem
I use class CSocket CSocketFile CArchive to support my program.
At first,I create a new CSocket object and connect to Server,and everything is OK.At the server I can get the connection message from the client.
After that,I use the following code to send some message to Server:
<br />
CString str;<br />
str.Format("%s","risking");<br />
UINT CtrlCode;<br />
CtrlCode=USER_NAME;<br />
m_pClientSocket->SetSendData(CtrlCode,str,3,1);<br />
m_pClientSocket->SendData();<br />
CtrlCode=USER_PASSWORD;<br />
m_pClientSocket->SetSendData(CtrlCode,str,3,2);<br />
m_pClientSocket->SendData();<br />
CtrlCode=USER_LOGIN_END;<br />
str="";<br />
m_pClientSocket->SetSendData(CtrlCode,str,3,2);<br />
m_pClientSocket->SendData();<br />
if I add the two code sleep(100);in it,everything looks OK at server,I can see the ctrl_code USER_NAME USER_PASSWORD CTL_END at server.But if I delete the two sleep(100),I can sometimes see all three ctrl_code,sometimes can only see CTRL_END message.
I don't know where is wrong,and the following code is used to send data:
<br />
void CClientSocket::SendData()<br />
{<br />
CCommand cmd;<br />
cmd.m_CtrlCode=m_CtrlCode;<br />
cmd.m_DataStr=m_DataStr;<br />
cmd.m_CurrentData=m_CurrentData;<br />
cmd.m_TotalData=m_TotalData;<br />
cmd.Serialize(*m_pArchiveOut);
m_pArchiveOut->Flush();<br />
}<br />
At server I use the following code to receive message:
<br />
void CServeSocket::OnReceive(int nErrorCode) <br />
{<br />
CCommand cmd;<br />
do <br />
{<br />
cmd.Serialize(*m_pArchiveIn); <br />
} while(!m_pArchiveIn->IsBufferEmpty());<br />
UINT CtrlCode=cmd.m_CtrlCode;<br />
switch(CtrlCode/100)<br />
{<br />
case 1:UserLogin(&cmd);<br />
……………….<br />
}<br />
<br />
void CServeSocket::UserLogin(CCommand *pCmd)<br />
{<br />
<br />
switch(pCmd->m_CtrlCode%100)<br />
{<br />
case 1:m_LogInUserName=pCmd->m_DataStr;m_LoginDataCount++;<br />
break;<br />
case 2:m_LoginUserPwd=pCmd->m_DataStr;m_LoginDataCount++;<br />
break;<br />
default:break;<br />
}<br />
if(m_LoginDataCount>=2)
{<br />
CCommand cmd;<br />
if(m_bLogin=m_DBCtrl.VerifyLogin(m_LogInUserName,m_LoginUserPwd))<br />
{<br />
cmd.m_CtrlCode=USER_LOGIN_SUCCESSFULLY;<br />
cmd.m_DataStr="You are Welcome!";<br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
cmd.m_CtrlCode=USER_LOGIN_DENY;<br />
cmd.m_DataStr="Sorry!You have no privilege to login";<br />
}<br />
cmd.m_TotalData=1;<br />
cmd.m_CurrentData=2;<br />
<br />
cmd.Serialize(*m_pArchiveOut);<br />
m_pArchiveOut->Flush();<br />
m_LoginDataCount=0;<br />
<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
I really don't know why the server can get all message sending by client.
May anyone do me a favor for it,I just want to know what casue it and how to solve it,Thank you very much
Don't look at me in that way!

I don't use CSocket but I have in the past. (I ran into tons of problems with it). Anyway as a rule of thumb it's not a good idea to do multiple sends especially with out doing any type of error checking.
I'm not 100% sure of the problem but I bet if you run some error checking you will see that the socket is still busy sending the first msg when you try to send the second. That's could be why sleep() allows the socket to finish sending before it attempts the next send.
Hope this helps,
Rob

Hi!
I would like to execute a external program "iperf.exe" and read the output.
Iperf is a command line tool and writes it´s output to stdio.
How can I get the output? Should I use ShellExecute() command or what?

I wrote email program which works fine, but the problem I have is resolving domain name server. For example if I want to send email to somebody@yahoo.com, the server is not really yahoo.com but rather mx2.mail.yahoo.com. My question: are there any API functions to querry DNS to get me the real server name, after which I can use gethostbyname() and send the email.
Thanx,

One solution is via getaddrinfo() and getnameinfo().

Hi,
How do i disable a popup menu item in runtime (or change it's property to grayed) ?
For a regular menu item i would use the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI macro, with the menu item's ID and the handler function. the problem is that a a popup menu item has no ID!
Does antone have an idea?
Regards,
Oren.

Actually, you are wrong...
You have to give each item an ID when you are creating it. Either in resource editor,
or when you add each line.
BOOL AppendMenu( UINT nFlags, UINT nIDNewItem = 0, LPCTSTR lpszNewItem = NULL );
Off the top of my head, to get the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI stuff working, just give
TrackPopupMenu your main window.
int nResult = mPopup.TrackPopupMenu (
TPM_LEFTALIGN | TPM_LEFTBUTTON | TPM_RETURNCMD,
pt.x, pt.y, AfxGetMainWnd () );

Hi every one...
I need to calculate the time in millisecondes to find an element in this array
in another way i want to calculate this time to compare between the binary search and the sequential search..
Pleae help me

Why bother? For three items and greater, a binary search will always take less time than a sequential search. The search time for for a binary tree is O(lg N) in the worst case. For sequential lists, the search time is O(N) in the worst case.

If you are not interested in accuracy, try something like:
DWORD dwStart = GetTickCount();
DWORD dwStop = GetTickCount();
cout << (dwStop - dwStart) / 1000.0 << " seconds\n";
Another way that involves a bit more could would be:
unsigned __int64 nFreq;
QueryPerformanceFrequency((LARGE_INTEGER *) &nFreq);
unsigned __int64 nStart;
QueryPerformanceCounter((LARGE_INTEGER *) &nCtrStart);
unsigned __int64 nStop;
QueryPerformanceCounter((LARGE_INTEGER *) &nCtrStop);
cout << (nCtrStop - nCtrStart) / nFreq << " seconds\n";
But given that Windows is not a RTOS, you'll always be at the mercy of the hardware in terms of resolution.

Hello everyone,
I have been working on an MFC SDI program whose Document actually has lists of lists (and possibly a list of a list of a list). I would like to get into a good habit and be consistent with the way I maintain collections (mostly lists, occasionally arrays and maps). Almost all my objects are derived from CObject (for serializing, etc.).
I guess it comes down to picking between CList<type, type>, CList<type, type&>, CList<type*, type*> and whatever other combinations. To keep sane, I think I always want to use CList<type*, type*>. That way, I just use the new operator at the point where an object needs to be instantiated and call delete on it (while traversing the list or sublist) at the 'outer' list's destructor.
I would like comments about this. Is it safe? Is it a decent practice to keep? How can I prevent double deleting the same objects (if that could even happen)? Does this choice affect how I code the required copy constructor and assignment operator (which always seem to involve references)?
Thanks in advance for any advice and comments!
Eric

MFC containers are utter crap. Use std::list instead and you'll find a lot of the ancillary code you need to write will already be there for you.

Thanks for your tip Christian.
I will look around to learn how to make std::list (part of the STL, right?) work with MFC (including topics like Serialization, etc.).
If you could suggest any resources in particular, that would be great.
Thanks again!

It depends whether you want homogeneous (containing one type of object only) or heterogeneous (containing multiple types of object) containers.
If I want a homogeneous container, I typically have the container manage the storage of the contained objects. If the objects are small (perhaps ints), I use a CList< int, int >. If the objects are larger than about 8 bytes, I use CList< T, const T& > so that any functions which need an object (to store it, or compare it) take their argument by constant reference. You don't need to do any extra clean-up when you destroy the container; it destroys all the elements for you.
For a concrete definition of a heterogeneous container, consider a class hierarchy modelling shapes. We have an abstract base class CShape with derived classes CRectangle, CEllipse and CPolygon (for example). We want the container to be able to hold any combination of rectangles, ellipses, polygons and whatever else we might define in future.
To get polymorphic behaviour, we must store base class pointers. So I would normally declare the container as storing pointers of the type of the most-derived base class common to the elements to be contained. In this case I would use a CList< CShape*, CShape* >. The ARGTYPE is a CShape* because pointers are trivial to copy.
Lists of lists are tricky in MFC because CList doesn't define a copy constructor or assignment operator. You can't contain a CList inside a CList (although you can store CList pointers). If the top-level list is heterogeneous, you probably do need to use a list of CObject pointers, and MFC has a special class for that: CObList.

Hi Mike,
I appreciate your response. From what you wrote it looks like if I need to maintain a collection of different objects (but all derived from a common base), then a CList< baseclass*, basclass*> is the way to go (which is what I had been thinking for 'my sanity's sake').
For trivially small things (e.g. ints), a CList<int, int> is good. This sounds good to me.
You wrote: "If the objects are larger than about 8 bytes, I use CList< T, const T& > so that any functions which need an object (to store it, or compare it) take their argument by constant reference."
What is the advantage of doing CList<T, const T&> over CList<T*, T*> ? Or, alternatively, is there a reason not to do CList<T*, T*> all the time?
Thanks again!
Eric

I prefer the version without the pointers for three reasons:- I don't have to clean up the list myself (CList doesn't delete objects pointed to in the destructor).
- I don't have to handle indirections.
- The list has less memory-management overhead.
I'll deviate from this if I have to store references to the same object in multiple places in a list, but this is less common.
