Hello,
I ran depends for my program and it gave a huge list of dll's
ADVAPI32.DLL
COMCTL32.DLL
COMDLG32.DLL
GDI32.DLL
KERNEL32.DLL
MFC42.DLL
MSVCRT.DLL
NTDLL.DLL
OLE32.DLL
OLEAUT32.DLL
RPCRT4.DLL
SHELL32.DLL
SHLWAPI.DLL
SIMPLE HOME BUDGET.EXE
USER32.DLL
Do I have to include all of these in the setup program. What I do not understand is that if my program(just the .exe) works fine without any setup, why do I have to add all these dll's while creating the setup?
Please can you explain?
Thanks.

yes.

because, the m/c you are running your program on is already having these dlls.

Setup is meant to install your program on user m/c. Its not necessary that all necessary dll's will present there. The software you will use for making set up program , will take care of copying these dlls at desired location.

Thank you for your reply.
The setup will have to copy only the dlls that are not there on the users m/c, right?
I worked my program on win98, 2000 and xp. It worked on all of them without any error. That means all of the sysems have the necessary dlls needed.

partially, because sometimes you need tocopy updated version.

yes. It means that all these m/cs have visual studio installed ,too.
But it will not be case with user m/cs. So you need to consider that.

Well... non of them had vs installed in them. I even sent the exe file to client.

Oops ! search for MFC42.DLL,MSVCRT.DLL on those m/cs. And hope that same are present on client m/c in windows folder.
Its impossible to have these dlls present on clean m/c.

Oh! Ok. I just got lucky then!
Thanks a lot for the help.

I use the folowing code to listen the com:
void CMina_sView::OnListenCom1() <br />
{ <br />
running = TRUE;<br />
AfxBeginThread(run,this);<br />
}
void CMina_sView::ascultarea()<br />
{<br />
<br />
CSerial serial;<br />
LONG lLastError = ERROR_SUCCESS;<br />
DWORD dwBytesRead = 0 ;<br />
char szBuffer[21];<br />
CString str2="jjk";<br />
char of[5]= "Addd";<br />
int i=10;<br />
const int nBuflen = sizeof(szBuffer)-1;<br />
<br />
lLastError = serial.Open(_T("COM1"),0,0,false);<br />
lLastError = serial.Setup(CSerial::EBaud9600,CSerial::EData8,CSerial::EParNone,CSerial::EStop1);<br />
lLastError = serial.SetMask(CSerial::EEventBreak |<br />
CSerial::EEventCTS |<br />
CSerial::EEventDSR |<br />
CSerial::EEventError |<br />
CSerial::EEventRing |<br />
CSerial::EEventRLSD |<br />
CSerial::EEventRecv);<br />
<br />
lLastError = serial.SetupReadTimeouts(CSerial::EReadTimeoutNonblocking);<br />
<br />
lLastError = serial.WaitEvent();<br />
<br />
const CSerial::EEvent eEvent = serial.GetEventType();<br />
<br />
if (eEvent & CSerial::EEventRecv)<br />
{<br />
while (running)<br />
{Sleep(300);<br />
dwBytesRead = 0;<br />
<br />
<br />
serial.Read(szBuffer,nBuflen,&dwBytesRead);<br />
szBuffer[dwBytesRead] = '\0';<br />
str2.TrimLeft();<br />
str2.TrimRight();<br />
str2.TrimLeft();<br />
str2.TrimRight();<br />
}<br />
}<br />
running = FALSE;<br />
serial.Close();<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
UINT CMina_sView::run(LPVOID p)<br />
{<br />
CMina_sView * me = (CMina_sView *)p;<br />
me->ascultarea();<br />
return 0;<br />
<br />
}
If I run the program I get an error. If I run it in debug mode I when try to watch str2 i get the error: "symbol "str2" not found" What's wrong? I can watch any other variable.

Did you use your debugger to see on which line of code it crashes (if needed, use the call stack to see in which of your function it crashes).

But I can see what the error is, because when I use the debugger I don't have a value for str2, it says "symbol not found". But why does this happen? Does it have anything to do with multithreading?

It's not because you can't see the value of str2 that you are not able to see where your program crashes.
Maybe you are trying to watch str2 out of its scope. It can only be watched if you have a breakpoint in the function where it is declared. Outside it, its not visible.

But I try to watch the variable str2 inside the function and I can't. I know what ur trying to say, that's why I asked you if it's because of the multihtreading, is that why I can't see it's value?

When you get an assert, the first step is to break into the code. If you can't work out what's wrong, the next step is to post the line number and even the actual line of code that's causing the assert. We need the line number and file as well, if we're to see it in context.

Use the callstack to see in which of YOUR function the code crashes. Then put a breakpoint at the begining of this function and step by step to see which instruction makes your program crash.

The line that makes my program crash:
if (str2=="FFFF00000000028C") m_pSet->m_Nume="Gigi";
else m_pSet->m_Nume="Ionica";
Because that's a line on which I have str2 the variable that is defined and initiated with a value, but which I can't see.

Put a breakpoint on the if statement and single-step (F10) from there.

Where does this code come from ?? 
Please, when you post something give the complete information. This has absolutely nothing to do with the first code snippet you posted. So how can we guess what the problem is  ?
What is this m_pSet and what is its value ? Is it a valid address ?

This is apparently not with VC++ v6. Correct?

No, it is with VC++ v6.0. The error is comming from using the str2 CString variable. If I dont use any reference to it there is no problem.

Line 883 of wincore.cpp does not have any ASSERT() statements. Here are the first few lines of code in the AssertValid() method:
#ifdef _DEBUG
void CWnd::AssertValid() const
{
if (m_hWnd == NULL)
return;
ASSERT(HWND_TOP == NULL);
if (m_hWnd == HWND_BOTTOM)
ASSERT(this == &CWnd::wndBottom);
else if (m_hWnd == HWND_TOPMOST)
ASSERT(this == &CWnd::wndTopMost);
else if (m_hWnd == HWND_NOTOPMOST)
ASSERT(this == &CWnd::wndNoTopMost);
else

IME, symbol "str2" not found errors in the debugger are due to one of four things:
1: You typed the identifier incorrectly
2: You are in the wrong context
3: You are trying to view a static variable (VC++ 6.0)
4: You have overrun/underrun a buffer
Given that you are also getting additional errors, I would research #4.
Peace!

What do you mean by that? If I don't use multithreads I don't get an error.
