I have a String of sentences and I want get a list of all punctuation marks used in those sentences. After searching online, the c_str seems the simplest way I can achieve this.

String^ sentences;
String^  s2 = ",";
strstr(sentences->c_str(), s2->c_str());
datagridview->Rows[0]->Cells[1]->Value = s2;

We have MFC application and we want to redesign this application with better look and fill using windows 10 material design.

Is it possible to redesign MFC application into windows 10 material design ?

As We are totally new to this technology, It would be very helpful to  us if some basic examples are provided.  

Thanks.

I ran into a problem with VC++ 2015 ATL.

This is an in-proc COM DLL server built as follows:
Platform toolset: Visual Studio 2015 – Windows XP (V140_xp)
Runtime Library: statically linked (/MT)
Build Platform:    Win32

Code is extremely simple. Just what the project wizard generates plus a COM object with an empty method.

PROBLEM
The COM registration fails on Windows 2003 but succeeds on later platforms. I tested:
Windows 2003 (x86) – FAIL 0Xc0000005
Windows 2003 (x64) – FAIL 0Xc0000005
Windows 2008 (x64) - SUCCESS
Windows 2012 R2 (x64) - SUCCESS
Windows 8.1 (x64) - SUCCESS
Windows 10 (x64) – SUCCESS

I also installed VC++ 2015 on a second machine (that already had VS 2012), built a new ATL object from scratch and had the same results when using the platform toolset:
Visual Studio 2015 – Windows XP (V140_xp)

However on this machine I also built the same DLL using the toolset:
Visual Studio 2012 – Windows XP (V110_xp)

With the 2012 toolset the DLL installed fine on all platforms.
So the problem clearly concerns the VS2015 Windows XP toolset.

This is a function declaration.

  long InitBitmapProcess (HWND hWnd, pBITMAPHANDLE FAR * ppBitmap, bool bMode);

And this is a colling part.

   lRet = InitBitmapProcess(hWnd, &MyBitmap, FALSE);

If I compile, error occurs at &MyBitmap.

Bitmap is declared like following.

   BITMAPHANDLE MyBitmap;

How could I pass 2'nd parameter in the InitBitmapProcess() function correctly?

hi,

     I have a problen that the color of key words is not effective for operator(key words) in VS2013 c++ . But the color of operator(key words) is the function color. there is no the problem in the VS2012 c++;

Hi,

I just created a console C++ project with all the defaults. The project compiles ok using the ms compiler (Visual Studio 2015 (v140)), however when I switch to cland, I get this error:

1>------ Rebuild All started: Project: ConsoleApplication1, Configuration: Debug x64 ------
1>  stdafx.cpp
1>  stdafx.h
1>  stdafx.h
1>clang.exe : error : cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files
========== Rebuild All: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========

More generally, is there a blog/doc describing exactly what works and what does not yet?

Thanks,

Hi,

After installing the update 1, the most simple win32 project (all defaults) fails to compile when selecting 32 bit. All works in 64 bit. 

Something else: the configurations created are x64 and x86 (not win32). However when I open the configuration manager and select x86 for the solution, for each project I see win32?! Kind of strange...

Anyway the important issue is the kernel32.lib. I have never seen this kind of 32 bit app error?

I'm using replace and split functions together, but it doesn't work how to suppose to. Any suggestions or advice ?

String^ text = textBox1->Text;
cli::array<String^>^ sentences = text->Replace('.', '.qx')->Split('qx');
datagridview->Rows[0]->Cells[1]->Value = sentence;

My aim is to convert Wide Character (string of type wchar_t) to DOS ascii for codepage 866 - DOS:Cyrillic. I wrote a sample program using visual studio 2008 on desktop Windows 7. The function is able to convert string successfully.

However, the same function for windows compact 7 has been compiled successfully, but it does not do conversion successfully. It gives error - ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER. After a couple of investigation, I realized there is no parameter is invalid, if I use default codePage  CP_ACP or CP_UTF8, there is no such error (though it does not serve my purpose, I need the conversion for codePage 866).

My Question is, is to confirm that the function WideCharToMultiByte(.....) for codePage 866 has some inherent problem over windows Compact 7 ? The response to my question help me to seek alternative way.

I'm using FindWindow() to detect when ftp.exe has finished downloading files... it works fine when in normal permissions, but when the program is running under elevated privs FindWindow() bails returning NULL no matter what.

Is this expected?  Is there some rationale for this? I saw another thread where it was suggested to do a GetLastError() on FindWindow()... I did this, it returns zero... perfectly happy to not do its job.

I realise FW is a hack... but I don't want to burden the system by polling once a second for all running apps to try to find ftp.exe.  I can put a check in my app that disallows the FTP when permissions are elevated... there are other places (during config) when these are needed, or I wouldn't have a problem).

Any clues?

Background:
When using ApplicationVerifier&WinDBG with my C application, I keep getting a breakpoint due to APPLICATION_VERIFIER_IO_ASYNCIO_STACK_UNWIND (800).
This isn't relevant for my application, so I'd like to disable it.

Problem is -
I know I can disable it via ApplicationVerifier itself,
but is there any way to suppress this in my code?
I need this not to happen on other instances of ApplicationVerifier as well...

Thanks!
