Hi all,
I received a number of header files of several years old in C , now I want
to use this code in c#. What are the steps I need to make? Can I compile it
into a DLL with c++ and use it in c# somehow(.net 2005) ? must I convert it
to cs files ? Is there a tool available ? Maybe examples ?
Many many and even more thanks,

sounds easy .. I only have about 20 header files , some headers include the
others, .........how do I get the header files compiled correctly into .dll
s. The P/invoke transforms the .h to code with a lot of .dlls imported. But
then I have to create dll's out of these header files....how do I do that.
sorry but I'm not a c guru....anywhay thanks for yr help.

What are there in headers? usually there are placed some definitions and declarations ( function prototypes, constants etc ). If you have headers, then it seems that you also have the code that uses these headers.
IMO here you have following ways:
- compile the code C with headers into separate DLL, ensuring that declared functions are exported from that dll. Then in the managed code ( C# ) you can use them via p/invoke.
- rewrite the code totally in C#.

What do your header files contain? only definitions .
To compile to dll you have to use compiler and linker. Or if you have Visual Studio then you can create Dll project and include there all the sources you have
P.S. P/Invoke is not transforming files. It enables you to call unmanaged functions from managed environment.

Hi,
I've been wrestling for several months now with this issue in IE:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308090
(IE thinks that ZIPs sent from a script are corrupt when they are not).
IE now also seems to think that many other files are ActiveX controls
and pops up the "Some files may damage your computer...Open Save
Cancel" dialog.
However, I am quite certain that others have managed to use a script

I just started learning C++ on my own...I'm using Accelerated C++.
Something it hasn't explained and I keep wondering about is how header
files actually work. I suspect it doesn't get into it because it is,
as the authors love to say, "implementation specific". If that's the
case, how does the compiler commonly handle them? I use Linux and gcc
specifically. Basically, I don't understand how a header file being
included makes a...

Hi all
What does the group think of the practise of including one header file from
inside another?
I have some legacy code where this has been done, and it creates a
dependency on a module (collection of files) which are not required, except
for one header file's contents.
I'd say 'No, header files should be included in the C source, not in another

Hi, all.
Recently, I find there is a way in our project to maintain a global set in
many files by using preprocessing directives. I'm wondering if we could find
a better method for this.
Many colors are referred in different subsystems in our projects. They are
defined as enumeration constants and a single color must be the same value
all across our projects.

Is it possible? Bestcrypt can supposedly be set up on linux, but it seems
to need changes to the kernel before it can be installed, and I have no
intention of going through whatever hell that would cause.
If I could create a large file that could be encrypted, and maybe add
files to it by appending them and putting in some kind of delimiter
between files, maybe a homemade version of truecrypt could be constructed.
Any idea what it...

Uploading files from a local computer to a remote web server has many useful purposes, the most obvious of which is the sharing of files. For example, you upload images to a server to share them with other people over the Internet. Perl comes ready equipped for uploading files via the CGI.pm module, which has long been a core module and allows users...

You may be wondering why you would want to put your files “into” the database, rather than just onto the file-system. Well, most of the time, you wouldn’t.
In situations where your PHP application needs to store entire files, the preferred method is to save the file onto the server’s file-system, and store the physical location of the file in your database. This is generally considered to be the easiest and fastest way to store files.
