Visual C++ :: System Function Fails To Parse Argument
Apr 29, 2014
I have a very strange problem with the system() function (on XP).
I have the following code:
Code:
char *text1 = ""A SpaceAction.bat" fred";
char *text2 = ""A SpaceAction.bat" "fred"";
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
printf("%s
", text1);
[Code] .....
When I run it where "A Space" is a directory with a space in the name, this is the result:
Code:
"A SpaceAction.bat" fred
F:Test>echo Testing
Testing
"A SpaceAction.bat" "fred"
'A' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
It seems that the double quotes round an argument make the parsing of the command fail.

I searched the web for error: C3867... and the discussions where murky or obscure.
My code excerpt is:
#pragma once
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <process.h>
void PutUpfrmIO(void *);
namespace WordParsor {
[Code] .....
I get the generic message:
error C3867: 'WordParsor::Form1::PutUpfrmIO': function call missing argument list; use '&WordParsor::Form1::PutUpfrmIO' to create a pointer to memberc:userskingc++wordparsorwordparsorForm1.h... and the suggestion fix generate another error.
One person suggested the gcroot<> object wrapper... but I do not know how to modify/declair the function or its argument type.

The code below outputs this:
a[]= 00
a[]= 10
a[]= 10
a[]= 10
a[]= 11
a[]= 11
0.
But I was expecting this:
a[]= 00
a[]= 10
a[]= 10
a[]= 00
a[]= 01
0.
This describes how the process is running in machine:
1. Defining a[2]{0,0}; ii=0; aj=0
2. Calling function func(a,ii,aj) |func({0,0},0,0)|
3. func({0,0},0,0) defining w=0; static aa=0
4. func({0,0},0,0) if(0) returns aa=1
5. func({0,0},0,0) for j=0
6. func({0,0},0,0) for Outputing "00", because a[2]={0,0}, look (1).
7. func({0,0},0,0) for if(!0) | because a[0]=0| returns w+=func(a,ii+1,j) |func({0,0},0+1,0)| and calls func({0,0},1,0)
8. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({0,0},1,0) defining w=0
9. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) if(1) returns a[0]=1, because of static aa=1, см 4.
10. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for j=0
11. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for Outputing "10", because of a[2]={1,0}, look row #9
12. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for if(!1) |because a[0]=1|
13. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for j=1
14. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for Outputing "10"
15. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for if(!0) |because a[1]=0|
16. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for if if(1==1) |because ii=1, func({0,0},ii,0)|
17. func({0,0},0,0) for if func({1,0},1,0) for if if return 0
18. func({0,0},0,0) for if w=0 |because func({1,0},1,0) gives 0|
19. func({0,0},0,0) for j=1
And from now, something is happening that I cannot understand:
20. func({0,0},0,0) for Outputing "10"
Why so? If func has itselfs local variables, including a[2]={0,0}.
I was expecting this:
20. func({0,0},0,0) for Outputing "00"
So a[2] array is not local variable. Why it happens?
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int func(bool a[],int ii,int aj) {
int w=0;
static bool aa=0;
[Code] ....

I wish to add the item 'Website' to an MFC Dialog app System Menu so that it can activate the following method:
Code:
void CMyDlg::OnWebpage()
{
ShellExecute( NULL, NULL, _T("[URL]..."), NULL, NULL, 0 );
}// OnWebpage()
I have tried this:
Code:
#define IDM_WEBSITE (WM_USER + 101)
//..
if (!strAboutMenu.IsEmpty())
{
pSysMenu->AppendMenu(MF_SEPARATOR);
pSysMenu->AppendMenu(MF_STRING, IDM_ABOUTBOX, strAboutMenu);
pSysMenu->AppendMenuW(MF_STRING, IDM_WEBSITE, _T("Website"));
}
[Code]...
The code compiles without error but and the 'website' item appears on the System Menu but it doesnt do anything.
I've inspected the following but don't really understand how it works and it seems to me there should be a simpler way to accomplish my end.

What I have is a main function that takes input characters from the command prompt during the main function call, and coverts it to an integer array a using atoi. (starting at the 2nd character - the 1st is reserved for another call that I plan to reference later, and the 0th is obviously the ./function). A function is then called to find the mode of an array (the range of values in the array is 1-30). Now, when I run the whole thing, I get a segmentation fault (core dumped) for even number of arguments. It's late and I've been staring at it for too long...
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int get_mode(int a[], int count);

I have a quick question about dynamic memory. I know that if you are dynamically allocating memory for a single data array and it fails, you can immediately abort the program via a return statement, but is this also true with multiple data arrays? For instance:
int *foo, *bar
foo = new (nothrow) int [5];
bar = new (nothrow) int [5];
if (foo == nullptr || bar == nullptr)
return -1;
else
/*rest of execution */
If the answer to the previous question is no, do you need to do a delete[] on the arrays that succeeded before terminating the application? Say foo is correctly allocated but bar fails, would you have to do something like this?
int *foo, *bar
foo = new (nothrow) int [5];
bar = new (nothrow) int [5];
if (foo == nullptr || bar == nullptr) {
if (foo == nullptr && bar != nullptr)
delete[] bar;

Why I'm getting an error here. I've dumbed down my code for simplicity and removed irrelevant code.
PHP Code:
class Foo {
public:
bool IsNull() const;
private:
std::map<int, int*> test;
[Code] ....
I'm getting a "passing...discards qualifiers" error on my if statement and not sure why because I'm not changing anything. I know removing const or making test mutable fixes the issue. I've been taught to always make a function const if it doesn't change anything, in which case, have I finally come across an acceptable time to use mutable?

I know it has to do with the array, and I've tried over and over again to fix my issue and nothing has worked thus far.

I have a few VC2008 projects whose solutions also includes deployment projects, in which the primary output of several DLLs are included along with the primary apps EXE file. These DLLs are all part of the solution. Now because of the way I do my DLLs, which for lack of better phrase I'll call a true DYNAMIC link (the .LIB file can be discarded), and because I'm careful to ensure full backward compatibility in any new DLL versions, I would like to tell my deployment project to ALWAYS replace existing DLLS with the new versions, or at least offer a choice if it shouldn't be done unconditionally. Unfortunately it never seems to do that!
I'm being careful to create new overall project versions within the deployment project itself, as well as keeping my version resources, attached to each DLL up to date, and always do a full rebuild of everything in the solution (including the DLLs) prior to building the deployment project. But time and again the old DLLs stay un-updated after the install, and the person running it would have no way to know that without examining the target directories and examining file dates and/or versions. A customer shouldn't have to go through all that. I've gotten into the habit of instructing installers to fully un-install old versions before installing a new one, but as you probably know uninstalling from the control panel won't remove shared DLLs.
I was starting to think maybe the latest DLLs weren't being included in the deployment project at all. But if I manually delete those DLLS and do the install, the latest greatest are then always placed.
If I can't find a setting in the deployment project to change this behavior, I'll have to write a separate little console app to force delete (or at least archive) all the relevant DLLs as a pre-installation step. Or maybe supply a BATCH file to do all that, and run the install last. But it seems like a reasonable thing that a setting to make a deployment (MSI) file unconditionally overwrite DLLS, whose version or creation date is newer, ought to be an obvious feature. But if such an option exists, I've missed it completely.

In the assignment we are forbidden to use fscanf(). I have been trying to get this to work, but I've started to realize that I do not have a complete understanding of what strtok() actually does. I'm getting this warning when debugging: "assignment makes integer from pointer without cast."
This warning happens when assigning str to goal and assist, and I think it is because they are, when dereferenced, integers. The code below correctly assigns the name into the correct spot, but leaves nonsense data in the goal and assist arrays.
ex:-7880, -7888 file example: NAME GOALS ASSISTS JOHN 1 2
Code:
void readLinesFromFile( FILE* Ptr, int* goal, int* assist, char** name, int lines ){/*
* Reads lines from files and populates the arrays with the corresponding info.
*/
int index;
char hold[ MAX_LINE ] = { 0 };
char* str = NULL;
[Code] .....
From what I understand about strtok(), it returns a string, and takes in a character array and a key value that tells it when to stop. In the online examples I've seen, they use NULL in the first field. I'm not sure why.

By using Debugging I found Some thing is mess with " -m" Parameter of Command line , But Cant Rectify it ..
Code:

i have this Stealth Injector source from internet so this program is for injecting .dll to an .exe this program was made by someone to used for cheating in online game but i need to use this program in my private server game online to tell the game client .exe the server IP, that is stored in a dll file.. the problem is i don't want the player to directly execute this program, but they need to run the game patcher first to do the patch.. so i need to put some secret parameter argument that will block player from direct execute..
i know nothing about c++ i only know that you need to use main(int argc, char *argv[]) i've try to put something like this
Code:
int main(int argc, char* argv[]){
stringstream sparam;
string param;
[Code].....
the code works fine but the rest of code won't executed..
i've attached the cpp and header files for you guys to check source.rar

How to pass an int that I got from user input into a function to use it. I am trying to print out the words to a string of numbers.
I got the input from user.
I got an absolute value of the input.
I then separate the string into individual digits and name them.
I can print these out.
Then I started my if statement by checking if the original input was zero, and if it is, printing zero and exiting.
Then I an trying to pass the digits into a switch function and this is where I go off the rails.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdio>
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;

I was reading about void as function argument, but I did not fully understand it's meaning in C.
In C++
void foo(void) {}
and
void foo() {}
are the same. It means no arguments for foo function. But in C it's different. First function means the same as in C++, but second means
In C, an empty parameter list means that the number and type of the function arguments are unknown. But if it is unknown you can't use this arguments if user specifies same. Because here are no variables to store them. So doesn't result are the some? You do not get any arguments. O do I can get this arguments from some hidden variable?
For example.
void foo() {
printf("%d", var);
}
foo(5);
It is very unclear for me. Do this apply to main function too?
int main(void)
int main()
or can I use arguments given to int main() like given to int main(int argc, char* argv[])

I have two questions :
1)
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void func1() {
cout << "Func1" << endl;
[Code] ....
Why ptr_func1() does not work here?
IntelliSense: expression preceding parentheses of apparent call must have (pointer-to-) function type
2) How can i pass func1 to func2 as parameter?
I tried void func1(void* function), but I think I'm wrong here.

I have a function
Code:
int exec_program(char * arguments[])
{
...
}
I can call it like this without a problem:
Code: char * uselessvariable[] = {"/bin/echo", "Testing", NULL};exec_program(uselessvariable);
However I get an error if I try to compile it like this:
Code: exec_program({"/bin/echo", "Testing", NULL});
How, in c, I can put this array inside of the argument in one line without having to name a new variable name?

I was wondering if one could write a function that could accept one or the other variable type.
Ex: I have 2 arrays, int** and double**, and a function
Code: void PGMWrite(double** Matrix, int Matrix_dimension){.....}
Is there any way to change the function to
Code: void PGMWrite(int** Matrix || double** Matrix, int Matrix_dimension){.....}
And then have some sort of type identifier in the function that picks the correct section via an if loop? If so how, and how would I identify in the function if the input it type double or int?

I am using a small robotic-car that is controlled by writing C/C++ codes under Linux. I need to use a particular function from the library provided by the manufacturer. The relevant API documentation for the function is:
BASEBOARD_ERROR_KIND ZMP zrc :: :: :: Baseboard GetRS232Data (char * msg )
RS232 data acquisition.
Argument:
[Out] msg Address of the acquired data.
Returns:
BASE_OK RS232 data acquisition success
BASE_BASE_232_GETDATA_ERR RS232 data acquisition failure
I have trouble writing the relevant code in the main program that invokes this function. Here is a snippet of what I have tried:
# include "Baseboard.h"
int main () {
Baseboard _Baseboard; // Class name is Baseboard
char *msg ;
[Code] ......
The part where I am uncertain is how to handle the char pointer "msg" in the declaration, function call and referencing. According to the documentation, the char pointer "msg" is the output of the function so I presume that is is somehow dynamically allocated. Am I handling the char pointer properly in the declaration, function call and referencing parts?
Another related question I have is: I am printing out the value of the variable "dummy". I always get 0 for it. Since the variable "dummy" is an enum of type BASEBOARD_ERROR_KIND which can take on two values (first value represents success and the second failure), it is alright to get a integer value of 0 for it if the function call was successful ? (I do not have much experience with using enums so this is a enum-related question on whether we can get an integer value representing the first enum value) .
