I'm writing an ActiveX control. In one of the functions I'd like the user to be able to pass me a pointer to a buffer that they created which I can then fill with data and return a success/error code. What's the appropriate way to do this? I was thinking about just using an OLE_HANDLE type for the parameter and then casting that to pointer inside the OCX but I'm not sure if that's safe or the right way to do it.

I have an C++ application which uses Microsoft Web browser ActiveX control to launch any URL within the application. The browser is embedded in C++ form and It's working fine with all the feature Microsoft has exposed through Interface(IID_IWebBrowser2).But while any url that is using session cookie has been launched, even after closing the browser the session cookies are not getting deleted. For example if user login info is stored as session cookies,the url is using the cookies and getting launched without asking for user log in info.
But if I close the browser, and again relaunch , the cookies should be deleted and the url will not find the cookies to be used for log in . That is not happening here. Although this is session cookies , it's not getting deleted and being used by embedded browser. However, if the url is launched in IE, it is behaving as expected.
So, Do I need to delete the cookies explicitly? If Yes, How to do that?
I have a method that does some extensive work (retrieves a list of emails from an imap server). What i wanted was to add a flash movie that would start playing when the method is entered and will stop when the method finishes. Something like this:
private void RetrieveMails() {
PlayFlashMovie();
RetrieveMailsFromServer{};
StopFlashMovie();
}
The flash movie plays, but the speed is horrible, almoust frame by frame (it actually matches the stepping of the foreach method that fetches the mails from the server as i can see it retrieving one mail - the movie plays one frame and stops; retrieves another mail - the movie plays another frame and stops.).
In the loop that retrieves the messages, i added Application.DoEvents(); so that is not the problem.
Now i am thinking of somehow playing that flash movie on a separate thread that will not hang synchronous with the retrieving mails loop but i don't know how would i do that...
I have a main dialog which has (DDX?) controls for the user. eg a slider, and a combo box.
Previously, an image adjusted by these controls was in the same dialog.
I need to put this image in a New, separate dialog but it still must be controlled by the slider and combo box on the main dialog.
My question is how can I pass the control's variables between the dialogs? I have, say,
Code:
//MainDlg.cpp
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_ComboBrightness, m_Brightness
I was told that I could do something like:
Code:
//ImageDlg.h
public:
ImageDlg(CWnd* pParent = NULL, CComboBox m_Brightness); // standard constructor
But I get errors including: Missing default parameter for parameter 2
I also need to pass the image array, is that perhaps the same method?
I have a function called,
App 1:
void GetImage(CImage * img) {
//Pass &img over socket to another app
}
App 2:
void DisplayImage() {
CImage * pImg = &img;
}
Is it possible to pass a class pointer as memory buffer across the socket? The above code is just an example. My question in general is, whether it's possible to pass any Classes pointer as a memory buffer across sockets.
I would like to know in which way is the best to make ActiveX control for video. ActiveX control will need at least show picture and be able to go back in past, change resulation of picture and similar. How complex it is to do something like that? Is MFC best way to make it? Is there somewhere similar code?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to open PDF file in my MFC application. For this I have installed Adobe Reader 10 and added the ActiveX from resource editor to my dialog.
Created a variable of that type and trying to use that. Class wizard has generated "class CPdf1 : public CWnd" for me and that's added to project.
Now when I'm trying to create the control window getting Assertion failure. Using the below code in my OnInitDialog / some button clicks.
Code:
m_PDF.Create(_T("Reader Window"), WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE, CRect(0, 0, 200, 300), this, 2009);
Am I missing some steps ?
I have a MFC Com Dll that has a CDialog. In the OnCreate event I create an ActiveX control. The dll is hosted inside an executable of mine. In this scenario everything works fine!
The dll is also called from an external executable and then a Debug Assertion in OCCSITE.cpp occurs when I create the ActiveX control. I suspect that in the executable there is no AfxOleInit. I spend some time with this problem and tried to CoInitialize, OleInitialize, AfxOleInitModule and even AfxOleInit in the dll. But all that does not change a thing. If I understand the mechanics then this is an intended behaviour and should be done in the host exe.
What I observed in the OCCSITE.cpp:
Code:
_AFX_THREAD_STATE* pState = AfxGetThreadState();
if (!pState->m_bNeedTerm && !AfxOleInit())
return hr;
In my executable m_bNeedTerm is 0 and in the external one (where the ActiveX does not work) it is -1. In AfxOleInit this is explained as a special flag to prevent the dll from doing an unnecessary OleInitialize. But as I said even if I call OleInitialize myself I get the Debug Assertion and the ActiveX is not visible.
Is there anything I can do to make the ActiveX control work in the external application? Obviously I cannot Change anything in the application...
I`m working with MS Visual Studio 6. Trying to connect Word server with my window. This is call server in my class CXContainerView, inherit from CScrollView:
Code:
void CXContainerView::CreateWord() {
::CoInitialize(NULL);

_Application m_app;
LPDISPATCH lpDisp;
CLSID clsid;

It works in debug version but falls in release. Feels my fifth point, what I call it in the wrong way.
I'm working on a project which consists of several ocx loaded by one exe. The platform is WinCE. Now I'm on a process to create a new ocx. I do have a copy of those ocx projects in Win32 platform. These Win32 versions were only used to register ocx in local system and then put those on to application dialog by 'Insert ActiveX'.
Now the problem is those Win32 projects are so outdated, and unable to build. Getting too many linking errors to be solved.
I have build the new ocx and link that with exe manually by editing .rc file and all. But still no luck. New ocx is getting registered in WinCE device but failing to start application.
I know the user installation must involve some registry manipulations and some other trickery. But the ActiveX way seems to be more modular.
Is it worthwhile to separate the charting modules from the exe and make an activex dll for this purpose?
Let's say I've got something like this:
struct Box{
//something
};
typedef struct Box* pBox;
[Code]....
function fun recieves the address(which is NULL) and then allocates the memory for the Box; Let's say I cannot return the address of new allocated p and I can't also use that pointer p(from main) without passing it into a function.
Q: How can I make it that I could operate in function "fun" as I operate on orginal pointer p(from main), right now I'm just passing the address to my function but I can't change the 'global' pointer p ;(.
I remember in pascal it's like:
"function(var pointer:[pointer to sth])"
and all is done.
what I am trying to do is to pass to a function the address of an array of structs, so I can later modify the items within the struct, within the array
Code:
typedef struct { //A struct of name auctionint bidder;float bid;} auction;
void myFunction (auction * auctionItem[]){(*aucItem[x]).bid = y;(*aucItem[x]).bidder = z;}
int main(){auction theItems[10];
myFunction(theItems);} Where x, y, and z can be any number.
When I try to run my code the IDE (I'm using Code::Blocks 12.11) does not give me any errors, but it does give me a warning:
warning: passing argument 3 of '<function name>' from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
and the note:
note: expected 'struct <struct name> **' but argument is of type 'struct <struct name> *'.Also, when I run the program, it will crash and return garbage.
I am trying to wright a program that takes student grade data from a command line file, calculates a final grade, and copies the final grades to an output file. So far I have two functions, one that creates a student structure by allocating memory for it and returning its address, and one that should take that address and fill it with data from a line from the input file. My ultimate goal is to use a linked list to connect all the structs, but for now I just want to get the functions working. When I run what I have so far, I get an error C2440 (using visual 2010) that says "cannot convert from 'cStudent *', to 'cStudent', and points to the line where I call my fill function. How should structure pointers be passed?
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
struct student // Declaring student structure globally.
[Code] .....
Also, here is a sample of what a line from the input file would look like:
Bill Gates, 60, 54, 38, 62, 65, 60, 50
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

I'm trying to pass the pointer of a dynamic array into a template function, but it keeps telling me there is no matching function to call because the parameters I'm passing in are wrong. how to make the function accept the pointer.
//main
int main()
{
srand(unsigned(time(NULL)));
int size;
int *list;
int *listCopy;
[code].....
I can clearly understand how to pass a dynamic array to a function and modified within the function..
My aim is to get back the array initialized as I am trying on the next sample of code..
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
#define N3//number of bodies
void initialise( double *M[], double *X[], double *y[])

I have a Qt classes as follow:
Code:
class Vehicle {
public:
void AddData(QString str, Data* data) {
_myDataMap.insert(str,data);
} virtual void Init();
[code].....
My questions are:
After the main function called d1->Modify; the data stored in _myDataMap will get modified too.
What is the more appropriate way of passing the Data through AddData in such case?
If i do AddData(const Data & data), i will not be able to use inheritance of Data, i.e passing a subclass of Data to AddData.
Is there such thing as passing a winforms label by reference? For example, can I create a pointer label and pass the address to a function? I've looked online but couldn't find anything. Perhaps that's a sign?

The function should pass the square of the first input parameter and the cube of the second input parameter back to the calling routine. I thought I could use a recursion but its not going to work.

I am trying to write a light weight printf style function.
I have got this far:
Code:
void println(const char *txData){
LOG(__PRETTY_FUNCTION__);
UARTPuts (LPC_UART0, txData);
}
void miniPrint(const char *format, ...)
{
unsigned int index = 0;
va_list argptr;
va_start(argptr, format);
[Code]....
I understand why I think. When I am passing the reference to the array possion it is outputting everything up to the next /0. So my question is how do I stop it?
I dont have much choice as to how the output wants it:
Code: void UARTPuts(LPC_UART_TypeDef *UARTx, const void *str)
Thats library code, so I dont want to change it. I.e I have to pass an address into println.
I am getting a few compile errors for what might be a simple thing to do.
