I've been looking at callback stuff of my own, and if you your code to:

typedef void (*fC)(int* p);

bool Test(int n, fC p)
{
	int* pN = new int;
	*pN = 3;
	(p)(pN);    // ---- access violation 0xc0000005.
	delete pN;

	return true;
}

void fc(int* p)
{
	*p;
}


void main()
{
	Test(3, (fC)fc);
}

Then it works just fine...

But your code doesn't look bad to me. Just more indirection than you need. fC is already a type of "pointer to a function", so why make things work with "pointer to a pointer to a function"?

In the interests of science, I added these two lines to main:

fC p0 = fc;
fC *p1 = &fc;

And on the second line I get: "error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'void (__cdecl *)(int *)' to 'void (__cdecl ** )(int *)'".

This leads me to suggest that you're seeing the same behaviour as when you try to get a pointer to an array - you get the first element of the array back. This is probably a C thing that's biting you. And then you manually cast it in your original main and things blow up later...

That's my theory, anyway!

Hi,

I want to create one email notification application for outlook express 6.
i used "MAPIFindNext()" function to get whether unread messages are present inbox.
this function returns first unread messages id.
but i need to find number of unread messages. Is there any function to find that?

Thanks.

I'm no great expert, having never used MAPI, but the following line from the documentation may be of help:

MSDN wrote:
The MAPIFindNext function allows a client application to enumerate messages of a given type. This function can be called repeatedly to list all messages in the folder.

This implies to me that you can just run the function repeatedly, and just count how often it succeeds - the you have your number!

Good luck,

Iain.

Iain,
Yes this function gives notification based on messagetype.
i already tried this...
But consider inbox have three 'x' type messages, call the MAPIFindNext function three time with x messagetype.
it repeats the same message id and not give other message id.
Reason is it's another functionality is, it will give first unread messageid of messagetype 'x'.
am i correct?

Thanks.

2: Install Windows Driver Kit.
3: You get lots of sample code in the hard disk.

BTW, there is no MFC in device driver code.

HI ,
im using UrlDownloadtofile() to download some files ...but the issue is if the file is present im able to download file(With return value S_OK) ...but if the server is not accessible ie (some issue with IIS or any other..) or if the file is not present im not getting the exact return value from UrlDownloadtofile to specify to user whether it is server issue or File not present...in MSDN it was given that if the return value is INET_E_DOWNLOAD_FAILURE then file is not present in the server but...im getting some junk value like -2146697210...when the file is not present in the server or server is not accessible....

So please let me know how can i notify user what is the exact problem....

As per the documentation, this function will return, either of the following values,
S_OK - 0
E_OUTOFMEMORY - 0x80000002
INET_E_DOWNLOAD_FAILURE - 0x800C0008

and from the error code you've given the value is negative which means that you're taking this values to a signed variable like int.

The actual return type is HRESULT and the values are defined with unsigned hexadecimal. Please compare it with INET_E_DOWNLOAD_FAILURE, S_OK or E_OUTOFMEMORY to know whether it has succeeded or not.

The error code you've given is close to INET_E_DOWNLOAD_FAILURE value. Please compare against it.
