I am not sure if this is the right newsgroup. But does anyone know what is
the difference between a BSTR and a LPOLESTR?
The only thing I could find out is that the advantage of taking BSTR instead
of LPOLESTR is that determining the length of a BSTR is much faster.

I use C# in .NET framework.
I have an ActiveX implemented in C++ that has a COM interface method that
gets as it’s out parameter a BSTR* . The interop translates this BSTR* into
C# string. From my managed code, I am calling that function with ‘out’
parameter of ‘string’ type. For normal size strings it works fine, but when
the string is very big (> 50,000 bytes), I get a null exception from the COM
interop.
What is the reason?...

I have a C++ function in a DLL of the form
BSTR WINAPI DoSomeWork(LPCSTR szConnection, LPCSTR szGUID)
I use SysAllocStringByteLen to return a BSTR.
For the most part this works accept when the calling applicaiton tries to
free the BSTR and I get a RtlFreeHeep error. I'm guessing because the bstr
has been allocated in one dll and it being released in another.

We have server components which were created by a third party and
compiled in VC++5 (sp3). They run fine on NT4 and 2000, however during
testing of our migration to Server 2003, these components have been
failing when performing Data Access functions. In particular we have
been having problems with BSTR and _bstr_t.
_bstr_t(BSTR*, 1) is the original code that the problem started with.
Other findings are -

In win32 mode, a BSTR was UINT length prefixed and terminated exactly by a
zero char.
So if you allocated "Hello World" that would allocate 28 bytes.
In x64 and (IA64 as well) it would become 32 bytes, because of the fact that
a pointer, is 8 bytes instead of 4 bytes.
The length prefix -still- is a UINT however and not a UINT_PTR.

I have a BSTR something like this
firstHalf.secondHalf
I want to parse this string using the "." as the delimeter, so I will
end up with two different BSTRs, one for the stuff before the "." and
one for the stuff after it. How can I do this?

Hello,
How does delete know how much memory to deallocate from the given
pointer? AFAIK this informations is put there by new. new puts the
size of the allocated memory before the just before the beginning of the
array. But I couldn't find this information by looking at the memory.
(Via VS2005 - C++)
My second questions is, if there is a mechanism to know how much memory
is allocated for the array, why don't we use it for things like...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
