Hi List,
I'm probably over my head on this one and some of the FPC forum
entries talk about limited functionality toward C++, but here goes.
A Windows pascal application is recieving data from a C++, VisC API,
which is set up as a class, and a conventional C wrapper, attempting to
extend functionality into Pascal. C++ and C are vis 4.2 MFC
The application crashes on the callback shown below. The odd thing
is that it crashes, simply using a string allocation in pascal. Tried
ansistring and others. Assumption, is that the callback is possibly not
configuring memory or address pointer correctly and then the String
allocation is landing off location by register and stomping on a
relative memory location.
Is this a valid implementaiton or outside the scope of FPC?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
THE PASCAL is called back to, in the following:
function L1_Callback(quote : pointer) : integer; stdcall; export;
One thing that comes into my mind is that you should make sure that
"integer" above really means what you want. "integer" is either 16-bit
or 32-bit, depending on FPC $mode. You may want to change this to
"LongInt" or "c_int", to be sure you're using 32-bit integer. If you're
mistakenly using 16-bit integer here, then a lot of mysterious problems
may happen.
Also, do you really want to put "export" here ? It's harmless, but
unnecessary, if you're only passing a pointer to L1_Callback to some
other C routine.
var
bid_price : double;
s : string;
begin
SendMessage(listbox, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, longint('L1 Callback'));
I would change this to
TempString := 'L1 Callback';
SendMessage(listbox, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, longint(Pointer(TempString)));
to be on the safe side.
SendMessage(listbox, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, longint(Get_secsym(quote)));
bid_price := Get_l1_BidPrice(quote);
//s := 'test message'; // This will crash!
//s := FloatToStr(bid_price); // Intended call crashes!
//SendMessage(listbox, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, longint(s));
end;
THE C WRAPPER has the following:
int CDasApiEx::OnQuote(st_L1Quotes *pQuote)
{
if(m_pL1Callback) (*m_pL1Callback)(reinterpret_cast<void*>(pQuote));
if(m_hWndCallback)
::SendMessage(m_hWndCallback,10000,0,reinterpret_cast<LPARAM>(pQuote));
return 0;
}
