Hi All,

I am getting the following error during a compile a new machine (just installed V Studio):

c:\sintcpp comthread\stdafx.h(37) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open type library file:...

I feel like I have asked this question before, but for the life of me I dont remember the answer.

I am getting the following compiler error:
c:\workspace\sintcpp comthread\stdafx.h(37) : fatal...

Howdy guys. Well, I finally figured out what the problem was (through trial and error). The problem had nothing to do with ReadFile. This program uses a logging function that I inherited from some...

Darwen, thanks for the reply. I hadnt thought of that. BUUUUT, I used HyperTerm to check to make sure the port was correct. E.g., I connected up my device that feeds the serial port and setup...

has anybody found an answer to this problem? I have the same situation.

IN fact, the same code does NOT choke on my desktop but DOES choke (with the error 183) on the laptop. The executable was...

Thank you Paul and Mick.
I got it to the point where I am trying to run the V Studio debugger on the first machine, but it cant find the executable on the remote machine (I am pretty sure I have...

I had no idea that Dr. Watson utility even existed!!!

Trying to read the text in the drwtsn32.txt file is a bit confusing too.

Next stupid question: how would I run remotely? I have a...

Hi All,

I am running an Visual C++ application on a laptop that does not have Visual Studio installed. I (obviously) created the application on a different machine. This application is a...

This was addressed before, but I didnt notice what the solution was.

I am doing a serial port read. When I perform the ReadFile, it returns zero. GetLastError returns error 183 (Cannot create a...

Thanks khp. I appreciate your input. I kind of suspected as much, but it doesnt hurt to ask the people that have experience.

Hello to all of you out there in the world of XML. I am just now starting to read up on XML, and its capabilities. I have a DB question.

I am working on a project that has a Unix (Linux)...

Have any of you out there ever installed and used PostgreSQL for windows? I have downloaded the source from a link found on the primary web site. I couldnt get the darn thing to compile (gmake /f...

thank you much. That did the trick. Have a great weekend. :-)

I am converting a Unix based build to a windows (Win32 console) build, and using Visual C++ IDE to attempt to build. Amongst the many other tedious tasks of converting code, I am also getting these...

I figured out what the problem was, in case anybody has an interest. I was instantiating a DirectoryInfo instance from an instance of another class. That other class got destroyed, and thus the...

the error value is 6: invalid handle. but the handle appears to be a valid value.

I have a bizarre one here. I implemented a "directory watcher" method that uses ReadDirectoryChangesW and GetQueuedCompletionStatus (a call to CreateThread establishes a callback which implements...

Thanks Victor. I will give it a shot.

This is probably an easy one for some of you guru's out there.

I have created a very simple application. It has a single CComBox. After the combo box is created, I read in a list and set the...

I think I have found something. Let me know if it looks like I am doing something outwardly stupid please:

RegOpenKeyEx ( HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"HARDWARE\\DEVICEMAP\\SERIALCOMM\\", ...

awesome. do you know of any good examples based on my original post?

have any of you out there ever used the RegQueryMultipleValues function? What I need to do is to create a program that will read all of the values for the...

Not sure if anybody is reading my post, but HEY I think I figured out why the major errors were occurring. I had an invalid return statement in the function that was setting the baud/parity/etc (did...

do any of you guys/gals out there have any experience with the serial communications issue?

Here is the latest I have found out during debugging (source file for reference is in original post). ...
