Thanks for the tip hashimsaleem.

Well as I said at the end of my post I figured out what I needed to do by the time I finished posting my question. Basically I wrote all the Service functionality and just made my app run as Service or instantiate the Dialog (or main window) depending on how it was started. It was pretty simple.

easy_odbc compile problem

I am trying to use easy_odbc. I have copied the .h and .cpp files into my project directory and added them to the MS C++ project as source and header files.

When I compile I get the following message

Compiling...
easy_odbc.cpp
c:\program files\c technologies\c-pen sdk\cwin\samples\tutorial_1_vc\easy_odbc.cpp(306) : fatal error C1010: unexpected end of file while looking for precompiled header directive
Error executing cl.exe.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

In Project > Settings, select the files for easy_odbc in the tree, go to the C++ tab, the Precompiled Headers category, and choose the 'Not using precompiled headers' radio button.

I was able to resolve this issue by adding the following the object/library modules in the link/general tab of my project settings

Thanks for all the assistance

I was going to say, add odbc32.lib to your link settings. Adding all the others are unlikely to do any harm, but will increase your build time slightly.

can you overload the same operator? For example:

<br />
void operator = (char* arg_cDate);<br />
void operator = (CDate arg_cdDate);<br />

of course you can, but only in C++

But what is troubling in your code lines, is that you overload an "=" operator, but it doesn't return anything, so, if the parameter is the value you want to assign to another, where is the destination ??
Are these operator inside classes definitions?

is this better ?

<font style="color:blue;">void operator</font> = (<font style="color:blue;">void</font>* DestObject, <font style="color:blue;">char</font>* arg_cDate);     <font style="color:green;">//Global function</font>
<font style="color:blue;">CDate& CDate::operator</font> = (CDate arg_cdDate);             <font style="color:green;">//Member function</font>

for the last one, i would even prefered that synopsis :

<font style="color:blue;">CDate& CDate::operator</font> = (<font style="color:blue;">const</font> CDate& refDate);        <font style="color:green;">//CDate member function</font>

what do you think about this ?

load (archc);

fprintf (archc,"hello"); //can't write
fclose(archc); //can't close as well

return 0;

You must pass the address of the FILE pointer variable.
instead of that you passed the pointer variable value.

don't forget to type if the fopen() really opened your file by testing its return value.

One possibility,

int main (void)
{
    FILE *archc=load ();
    if ( archc )
    {
        ...
    }
    return 0;
}

FILE * load ()
{
    return fopen("simple.c","r+") ;
}

But if you don't have to use C consider looking at IOStreams in the C++ Standard Library.

recv/WSARecv blocking

David Crow8-Apr-04 7:08

8-Apr-04 7:08

Both recv() and WSARecv() block if the data is not available. What can I do to make them non-blocking? I just want to get the data from the server if it is available, otherwise, go on to something else.

I've never used sockets before so the answer is probably obvious. Blush | :O

Thanks,
DC

wow david i am suprised... first question ever from you. Smile | :)

Any ways i had a similar problem... so i wrote my own read function that would spawn a thread... in the thread i would recv...

and in myread function i would wait till timeout..
if the thread timedout i assume that the recv has blocked otherwize i have the data.

I dont konw how efficient it is or wheather there exits a better alternative, but its working as of now.

have a look a the select() function to make any blocking function at a normal time get non-blocking...
in fact, that is a function i use under linux, but it must have an equivalent for Windows programmers if it is not the same.

You can also use ioctlsocket with the FIONBIO option to change your blocking socket into a non-blocking socket. If an operation would normally block, the call instead returns WSAEWOULDBLOCK.

MSXML2 - How do I use it?

Anonymous8-Apr-04 6:45

Anonymous

8-Apr-04 6:45

I wish to use MSXML2 in my application so I can look at some RSS feeds. I am using Visual C++ 6.0.

I have seen some example code but it mostly is C# but there is some code in one article on CP that has its code written in C++.

One line of code is like this:

::IXMLDOMNode *pNode = NULL;

When I add this code, I get a compile error. Must I download the latest SDK or something else?

Any help is much appreciated Smile | :)
