Building in VC6, need unsigned long long
__int64 is a vendor-specific base type. It can be combined with the unsigned modifier, just like: unsigned char unsigned __int8 unsigned short unsigned __int16 unsigned int unsigned __int32 unsigned long unsigned __int32 (unsigned long long) unsigned __int64 (unsigned __int128) Where the parenthesized names are not available in VC6, but are...
How can i open a file in visual c++?
You program probably doesn't run in the same directory where the source code is placed, but rather in the Solution\Debug directory.

unique_ptr constructor with custom deleter is deleted
This appears to be a defect in the Visual C++ standard library.

In VC++, is there any way to know the export class of a dll without any header files?
The closest you can get is by reverse engineering (use a debugger) to find the required memory size before calling a constructor, and maybe you could figure out what members are used for (as well as inheritance and other goodies), but you will definitely not have correct names for anything...
Windows Service not starting on cold boot
.net,windows,visual-c++,windows-services
There could be a race condition during start up. If the Event Log has not started working before the system attempts to start your service, and there is a dependency on that log, this may cause your service to fail. Perhaps you can Change the order in which your service...
VC++/CLI: How to prevent an unmanaged object from being destroyed when it goes out of scope?
c++,.net,visual-c++,c++-cli,interop
You can either change getTheB to return a heap-allocated ClassB, or have ManagedClassB make his own copy of the db object. Update for the copy: I assume ManagedClassB's constructor looks something like public ref class ManagedClassB { public: ManagedClassB(ClassB* p) : m_p(p) { } ... private: ClassB* m_p; }; You...
msvc++ doesn't see overloaded operator<<
There appears to be some kind of bug with default arguments, overloaded operators, and template function parameter overload resolution. These are all complex, so sort of understandable. The good news is that you shouldn't be taking just any iomanip there -- you should be taking a specific one. You can...
Why this causing Heap corruption?
What's wrong with it? It actually goes wrong at strcpy_s. Because strcpy_s overwrites the target buffer first (to the size specified in the function call). See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/td1esda9.aspx - The debug versions of these functions first fill the buffer with 0xFE. To disable this behavior, use _CrtSetDebugFillThreshold. (That is quite subtle...
Managing code with using #define
As @Paranaix mention you can provide preprocessor definition for compiler as command line argument like -DmyOption. Let suppose you use Visual Studio, you can open project properties->C/C++->Preprocessor->Preprocessor Definitions and place myOption in that list. It automatically add -DmyOption argument for compiler. So every source file in your project now can...
Reading file made by cmd, results in 3 weird symbols
This is almost certainly BOM (Byte Order Mark) : see here, which means that your file is saved in UNICODE with BOM. There is a way to use C++ streams to read files with BOM (you have to use converters) - let me know if you need help with that.
Linker error compiling DX10 program in Visual Studio 2015
visual-studio,visual-c++,linker,directx
Which version of the legacy DirectX SDK are you using? Static libraries* from different versions of the Visual C++ compiler are generally not compatible, so my guess is you are using a DirectX SDK that no longer supports VS 2005--I believe the February 2010 DXSDK was the last one that...
Using C callback in C++/CLI
illegal operation on bound member function expression This looks like you are attempting to callback a class member function. It can be done, but is a little tricky. You are best to callback a free global function, get it working, then look into how to call back a class member...
C++ How to create byte[] array from file (I don't mean reading file byte by byte)?
