My 5 for your attention to detail. I missed out on the case where the month could be January!

Quick question - do I lose thhose points for forgetting to consider the question:
What is the date 1 month prior to the 30th of march?

That's a flaw of OP's requirements.
The same applies to March 31th (and, for most years, 29th), May 31th,...

If the current date happens to be March 31st and the year is not a leap year, the most days you'd be off is 3. That said, once you subtract 1 from the current month (use the % operator so that it will wrap back around to December as needed), you may also need to subtract up to 3 days to have a valid date.

Hi guy,
does someone know some tricks to increase the time performance
of a VC++ application that need to write a large amount of data
into an Excel Sheet ?
Thanks
|
|
|
|
|
Yup!
Use a multidimensional safearray.
Once upon a time I was filling an Excel sheet with ~10Mb and it took about 40 minutes addressing one cell at a time. With a multidimensional safearray it took ~10 seconds.

Well, actually it's all the out-of-process calls that are the culprits here. They are ~2000 times slower than ordinary function calls in comparison. Knowing that, it's no rocket science figuring out that making less calls of this type will improve performance.

Hi All, Good Morning.
I am facing compilation errors but I have declared everything properly. Something is missing Please help me. I declared a declared class having 3-4 member functions n variable in header file and defined its functions in source file. Everything was working fine. But Now if I add some #define statements in header file and use those in source file , It is giving error undeclared variable. also if I put the mouse on #define statement it showing the variable with _CURSOR_ appended with.
eg.
#define TRADE_TAG "trd"
if I put the mouse on TRADE_TAG then it will show like TRADE_TAG_CURSOR_ "trd".. dont know why.. also if I right click on TRADE_TAG n then look for declaration then msg box appears variable TRADE_TAG not declared ... can u guide me here.
Second issue.
If I add a member variable or member function to the class declaration n then define in source file , it again gives compilation errors. dont identify class member variables n function. strange thing is that in one function it is recongnising member variables n in the another it is not.. both functions are member of the class. putting mouse on member function defination shows it as member. but on compilation it is giving error then function is not a member of class see the declartion.I m pasting code here. Please help
Header file Kccdatabase.h
#ifndef __KCCDATABASE_INCLUDE__
#define __KCCDATABASE_INCLUDE__
#pragma once
#include "afxdb.h"
class CKccDatabase : public CDatabase
{
private:
char sTradeXML[500];
char sTradeKcc[150];
public:
CKccDatabase();
virtual ~CKccDatabase();
BOOL ConnectKccDatabase(CKccDatabase &;
void InsertTrade(CKccDatabase *);
void ConvertTrdToXML(long RowIndx , bool IsRegularTrade = 1);
void ConvertTrdToKccFormat(long RowIndx , bool IsRegularTrade = 1);
};
source file
#include "KccDatabase.h"
void CKccDatabase::ConvertTrdToXML(long RowIndx , bool IsRegularTrade)
{
sTradeXML="Hello";
}
void CKccDatabase::ConvertTrdToKccFormat(long RowIndx, bool IsRegularTrade)
{
sTradeXML = "Hello";
sTradeKcc= " yes";
}
when I compile this source file cntl+f7 then it gives these errors in
KccDatabase.cpp(126) : error C2039: 'ConvertTrdToKccFormat' : is not a member of 'CKccDatabase'
1> f:\kats_clients_local\kats32\kats32\KccDatabase.h(4) : see declaration of 'CKccDatabase'
1>.\KccDatabase.cpp(151) : error C2065: 'sTradeKcc' : undeclared identifier
1>.\KccDatabase.cpp(152) : error C2065: 'sTradeXML' : undeclared identifier
please note that it is recongnising variable xTradeXML in upper ConvertTrdToXML but not in ConvertTrdToKccFormat ... also when I put cursor on the ConverTrdToKccFormat function defination then It shows this as member of CKccDatabase class ..
the only difference is that i have defind ConvertTrdToXML 4-5 days ago .. and otherone today.. :-9
Can anybody help
thx

I cannot spot any error in your code. Did you copy pasted this code or typed it yourself in the browser?

Not necessarily. When the compiler sees that a duplicate error would be generated, it will supress the extra ones. For example:
class David
{
int name;
void foo1()
{
naame = 12;
}
void foo2()
{
naame = 13;
}
};This will only generate one compiler error. Once I fix foo1(), only then will the compiler start complaining about foo2().
That aside, I see 2-3 syntax errors with your code snippet. The first is ConnectKccDatabase() is missing a closing parenthesis. The second is that you cannot assign sTradeXML and sTradeKcc to string literals like that. Either make them pointers, or use strcpy(). Since you are using MFC, I'd opt for CString variables instead.

Another suggestion: You're using MS Visual Studio right? Try saving cleaning the solution, save everything, close the program, then re-open. Sometimes Visual Studio failes to update intermediate files correctly. Cleaning the solution should delete those. The Re-start the program step is an unfortunate occurance, but I've known it to fix problems. Not sure why, but particularly those having to do with recent changes made in the software not being recognized. Just a thought.

Hi
Please help me to find out the problem in GetPrinter function.
First I am trying to get the printer handle for the specified printer using OpenPrinter function. .
HANDLE hPrinter = 0;
OpenPrinter ((LPTSTR)(LPCTSTR)strPrinterAddress, &hPrinter, NULL);
This function gets succeed. Using this printer handle I am trying to access the specified printer information’s using the GetPrinter function.
GetPrinter(hPrinter, 2, NULL, 0, &dwNeeded);
if(!dwNeeded)
{
DWORD dwError = ::GetLastError();
ClosePrinter( hPrinter );
}
Even using GetLastError() function I am not able retrieve error message. This function is not failing all the times. When I am trying to print out of 10 times, 6 times the printing is succeed. Only 4 times it’s getting failed. Please help me shoot out this problem.
Thanks
Gokul

Why do you check dwNeeded instead of GetPrinter return value?
What is GetLastError return value when GetPrinter fails?

The Get Printer function will return required buffer size in dwNeeded. I hope this should always be greater than zero. So I checked with the buffer size.
When I am trying to print the last error code it is printed nothing (empty).

I would check the GetPrinter return value, and call GetLastError only when it fails.
Are you aware that (MSDN [^]):
Remarks
Security Alert The pDevMode member in the PRINTER_INFO_2, PRINTER_INFO_8, and PRINTER_INFO_9 structures can be NULL.
When this happens, the printer is unusable until the driver is reinstalled successfully.

This should be:
if (! GetPrinter(hPrinter, 2, NULL, 0, &dwNeeded))
{
DWORD dwError = GetLastError();
FormatMessage(..., dwError, ...);
}
ClosePrinter(hPrinter);

Yes i have formated the dword error code to string in the above mentioned way only. but it return the empty string.

i have formated the message using the below method.
LPVOID lpMsgBuf;
FormatMessage( FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER | RMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM,
NULL, dwError, MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, LANG_DEFAULT),
(LPTSTR) &lpMsgBuf, 0,NULL );
CString strMessage = (LPTSTR)lpMsgBuf;
The error message is printed in the log file.
FILE *fp = fopen("C:\\log.txt","a+");
fprintf(fp,"\n Error Occured - %s ", strMessage );
fclose(fp);
in that log file it printer as
Error Occured -
