Remove the friend qualifier.

thanks, that fixes it.
I'm curious though, why does the exact same syntax work for the ostream and not for the stringstream? The ostream function is declared within the class as a friend, so why can't the stringstream one?
edit: it appears I can't use this code to chain insertions of different types either - I get the same compile error again if I attempt to do the following;
myClass foo;<br />
std::stringstream ss;<br />
ss << "foo: " << foo;
That syntax works perfectly fine though with the ostream overload.

You might also have to provide:
std::stringstream &operator <<( std::stringstream &ss, const char *str )
{
ss << str;
return ss;
}

could you tell me how we get data from ms access database and display it in the listbox?

You could use CDatabase[^] class if you were using MFC. Search this site. There are plenty of examples.

Hi
I have an API function call that asks to send a TCHAR* as an argument and it will return a string on the TCHAR*
Instead of sending a TCHAR* i send it as a char array, like this
char array[12];
Now when i debug and look at it, i see
array[0] = A
array[1] = 0
array[2] = B
array[3] = 0
array[4] = C
array[5] = 0
So if am expecting an output string of "ABC". What am seeing is, everyother index in the array is set to "0".
Why's this happening?
Is it a problem with using char array in place of TCHAR?
How to use the TCHAR?

You should zero-terminate the string, I suppose, i.e.
array[6] = 0
array[7] = 0
Nevermind, I was a it hasty.

Not quite, he's sending a char* which gets filled with TCHARs. It's the old Unicode <--> ASCII confusion again! Do people not read the manuals anymore?

Richard,
Can you tell me how to fix this issue?

You're right, of course. Too much drugz, today...

When i try to write the "array" string into a file, all that it writes is "A", and its ignoring the remaining array indexes.
Can this be solved by null terminating?
How to do that?

The short answer is, no!
You need to understand the difference between TCHAR (Unicode, 16 bit) and ASCII (8-bit) characters. You cannot store a TCHAR string into a char[] array and expect the program to make sense of it. From the small piece of code you posted you just need to define your array as TCHAR[] and use the appropriate function calls to process the text.
Take a look here in MSDN[^] for some more information.

TCHAR is not an Unicode character. TCHAR is defined either as an Unicode character (wchar_t) or an ASCII character (char), depending on the build.

Quite correct. However, I was trying to keep it simple(r) as he was obviously putting Unicode characters into the array.

Hi,
You are doing an Unicode build (have defined _UNICODE instead of _MBCS) and therefore TCHAR behaves like wchar_t (double byte character). The API is obviously returning an Unicode string to you, and you have accepted it into an ANSI style string. The Unicode version of the API was called, because you are doing an Unicode build. To solve this, you could do an MBCS build.
However, I strongly recommend the usage of TCHAR instead of char and use neutral string manipulation functions and APIs - for example, _tcscpy instead of strcpy. _tcscpy will behave like strcpy when you do an MBCS build and will behave like wcscpy when you do an Unicode build. This way, you could do an Unicode build and an MBCS build without making changes in the source code.
Take a look at the "Windows Data types" section of this article[^].
I would also recommend this two part article to you:

Hi,
- I am trying to execute a GUI dll from my program (.exe)
- I have do all about exporting function that will be called from outside like this
In Dll :
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) void ExecuteDll(bool A_bDecryptCcs);
What i need is to make a program (.exe) to execute this dll and it will be invisible because i need it to be like a Trigger just call and leave and let the dll working i.e the GUI of the dll still for me.
I hope that i explained my problem clearly and i hope so that someone have a solution and help me.
Thank you

And what is your problem?

- It is the DLL which should do all work
- the EXE should call the DLL which is a graphic interface
- the EXE call an exported function from the DLL only
- when i exit from the DLL all work is finished.
i hope that i explained more my situation.

And what stops you from implementing this? You don't know how to load a DLL, or you don't know how to call the exported method? As far as i can tell from what you said here, all your exe should do is load the DLL, call the exported method which i assume will create a window and run a message loop and after this method finishes, exit. Right?

I recapitulate all problem with:
i will have two files :
- EXE : just lunch the DLL and disappear
- DLL : called with its exported function (it is done) and it has the style of window and will do all work
and when i quit this window(exit from DD) is weening that my all application exit
the problem is when i lunch the EXE file, my window(the DLL) appears and disappears quickly and i need it to stay until i exit from it when i like!
So how can i do this ?
can i use a console application which lunch the DLL and still waiting? or there is an other solution

When your exe runs, what does it do, show some code (relevand code only). Also, what does your DLL do (also show some relevant code).

The EXE is just to lunch the DLL , that is all
The dll is a MFC SDI application contains a main window that do all work.
And to lunch this DLL i need this EXE.
So if there is a solution to this situation please help.
