Visual C++ :: Error / M4 Failed With Exit Code 255
Dec 8, 2013
Basically, I'm moving a VC project from my Windows 7 build machine to a new build machine that's running Windows 8.1. One of the pre-build steps (for a particular project) runs a script which needs to call the M4 macro processor (which is installed on my C: drive). I've been pretty careful to set everything up the same on both machines (including my PATH) but when I try to build the project on my Windows 8 box, MSVC's IDE shows me this error output when running the script:-
m4 failed with exit code 255

Say I have a dll that performs some mathematical parsing and calculations. The calling function is only a single C -linkage wrapper function in the dll. I can anticipate likely errors and program the dll methods to do several things when an anticipated error is encountered. (For now, let's not worry about unanticipated errors).
1 - send an error message to the user application using WM_COPYDATA
2 - throw an exception (assuming the calling app has used the try catch scenario)
3 - try to gracefully recover from the error within the dll and keep on going (jump to some safe place - but how ??)
4 - don't throw an exception from within the dll but halt the program (not very nice - the user won't know what happened)
Previous discussions on the matter have predominantly expressed the opinion that it is bad to throw exceptions from within a dll.
Long ago there was in use setjmp.h and something like
Code: if(setjmp(e_buf)) return -1;
But I believe this was only for old C applications - I'm not really sure. But at least someone back then recognized the need for getting back to a safe place in a process.

I'm not sure what I'm missing. It is supposed to input and display player's name and score, calculate the average score, and display the players who scored below average.
It simply doesn't work. All I get is a black screen. Debug spits out an exit code of 1073741510 (0xc000013a).
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
const int arSize = 100;
int inputPlayerData (string playerName [], int playerScore [], int &numPlayers);
[Code] ....

I'm new to C++ and keep getting an error. I get a permission denied and id returned 1 exit status, the code is fine and as far as i understand this would be because my OS doesn't allow modification of currently running files which would make sense as when i look in task manager it shows my program running even though it has finished. Ending process/process tree does nothing as does using any third party process terminator.
There is no loop in the program or anything even a simple hello world program yields the same result. Only way i can re-run my program is restarting my computer or saving the project under another name and re-compiling...

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've created a new dialog in my MFC dialog based application. the new dialog contains 5 control buttons. The following happens and I don't understand why?
1. click on buttonX. (result ok, OnBnClicked message is sent)
2. click on on any place of the application, but not on the dialog.(removing focus from dialog)
3. click again on buttonX (FAILED, OnBnClicked message is NOT sent). but if instead I click on any other button in the dialog (result ok, OnBnClicked message is sent).
And when I do:
1. ...
2. ...
3. click on the dialog area just to set focus on the dialog again
4. click again on buttonX. (result ok, OnBnClicked message is sent)
**I need to do step 3 only if I want to click again on the buttonX! why?? I think it related to SetFocus() but I m not sure how.
I've tried different style like, tool windows, overlapped, popup. it happens in all the cases.
Code:
class CToolsDlg : public CBDialog {
DECLARE_DYNAMIC(CToolsDlg)
public:
CToolsDlg(CWnd* pParent = NULL); // standard constructor
virtual ~CToolsDlg();
CToolTipCtrl m_ToolsTips;

I have a SDI application. I created a method OnClose to handle ON_WM_CLOSE of CMainFrm. This onclose() function calls a method in cmyview.cpp. Here, I created a thread that calls global function and from this function it calls another function in cmyview.cpp. At certain condition my application should close at here, I used postmessgae(WM_CLOSE (or) WM_DESTROY). I am having an error as object reference not set on postmessage(WM_CLOSE) it is going to afxwin2.inl page where exception occurs.
Below is code snippetHere, either j or k will only be true depneds on user input)
MainFrm.cpp:
void CMainFrame::OnClose()
{
CMyView* pview = (CMyView*)((CFrameWnd*)AfxGetMainWnd())->GetActiveView();
pview->method1();
}

I have a Modeless CMFCPropertySheet created and opened from the main frame. if I open the Modeless CMFCPropertySheet and close it then it's fine all the cleanup is performed through the destructor and the this pointer gets deleted. If I exit the app while the Modeless CMFCPropertySheet is open then the Modeless CMFCPropertySheet gets destroyed but the cleanup is not performed resulting in memory leaks for the pages. How can I make sure the cleanup is performed in that given scenario?

I want to define a range of exit codes in my application. These codes will be used as a return value of ExitInstance function. I want to know the exit codes availables (values not used for example by windows to inform about an other error). When I force to crash my application, I get some different error codes: 8148, 10176.
What is the no available range exit codes?
Is this the ranges code unavailable?

I've had with visual studio but nothing seems to be working. No matter what I do even with simple programs, like Hello World, I'm always getting an error about a .pch header file.fatal error C1083: Cannot open precompiled header file: 'DebugConsoleApplication1.pch': No such file or directory
This is only for one of the programs I've made but I'm pretty new to programming and I've not even used the header files for anything so I have no clue how to resolve this problem.

I am trying to use struct to store variables from a text file and use them in the main program. I have first tried running the program without using struct and declaring the variables within the main program and it runs fine. But after using struct, it gives no compilation error and a segmentation fault as output. Also, if the size of file/variable size is unknown can I declare variables as char string[]??
The code is as below:
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
struct test {
char string1[10000];

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int encrypt_data(FILE *);
[Code] ....
I am trying encrypt the file "encrypt" when I enter it I get "Error in reading file"
I think its a problem with the fgets() and scanf()...I tried both fgets out and then scanf but I get the same error.
I look in the directory and see that when I enter a file to be encrypted a blank file with a "?" at the end is created in the directory. so I try to encrypt "encrypt" it shows error then creates "encrypt?"
I then tested it by entering a random file name that does not exist
EXAMPLE
Please enter file to be encrypted: fakefilename
Error in reading file.
I look in the directory the non existent file now is listed "fakefilename"

I've written a c++ program that contains the following classes: class Shape, Circle, Ellipse, Rectangle, Triangle. All the classes are a subclass of class Shape. They syntax of their definition is fine, I see no visible errors. This is the code:
#include "graphics.h"
//#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
const float Pi = 3.141;
float distance (int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2) {
[Code] ....
Now when I declare a variable of each subclass in the main, I get an error on two of the classes.
int main () {
Circle a;
Rectangle b;
Ellipse d;
Triangle c;
int x1, y1;
float length;
[Code] .....
...And there's a bunch of similar if conditions. My compiler gives an error under b and d, i.e. the Rectangle object and the Ellipse object. The error is, "Expected a ';'" . I have quadruple checked every inch of my code and as far as I can tell, there are no missing semicolons. Where this ";" belongs ....

Ok, this thing works as far as the getting the image and drawing the rectangle but for the life of me I cannot figure out why it is causing an in the program.cs.
public partial class Crop : Form {
public Crop(Image BaseImage) {
InitializeComponent();
if ((Bitmap)BaseImage != null) { pbOriginal.Image = BaseImage; }
[Code] ....
BaseImage is pulled in from the main form's picture box.

I wrote a program with a recursive() called finder. But it dose not work properly,at run time it becomes to a infinite status. How to detect the error at runtime. Here is the code.
#include<stdio.h>
void finder(int x,int y);
int tot;
[Code] ....
I think the error is the changing value of x after a round of for loop.
