[GWT] Problem with multiple entry Points in the same module
I have multiple entry points in the same module. For example I have an Home entry point for the home page and an Admin entry point for the admin page. <entry-point class='com.company.project.client.HomeModule'/> <entry-point class='com.company.project.client.AdminModule'/> The way I am setup now - I need to check somt like this in...
What benefits does main(...) provide over using a static-initializer as a pseudo entry-point?
The entry point into a program in java is typically something like this // MyMain.java public class MyMain{ //whatever public static void main(String args[]){ System.out.println("balderdash"); } } However, since there is only the one SOP in main, the above class may be like this instead ...
Moving entry point to DLL in a WinForm app
I am trying to figure out a way to pre-process few things before my WinForm app loads. I tried putting static void Main() in a form within a class library project and commented it out from Program.cs. Which generated a compile time error: "...does not contain a static 'Main' method suitable for an entry point". It makes sense since the p...
How to get the entry point of a child process?
I created a child process from within my process with CreateProcess() (in C++) I then continue on using ReadProcessMemory to read through the memory and search for a specific something. I would like to start my search from the entry point of that process , since the process is loaded into it's own virtual space I have no idea at this po...
What functions does _WinMainCRTStartup perform?
This is part of a series of at least two closely related, but distinct questions. I hope I'm doing the right thing by asking them separately. I'm trying to get my Visual C++ 2008 app to work without the C Runtime Library. It's a Win32 GUI app without MFC or other fancy stuff, just plain Windows API. So I set Project Properties -> Confi...
Looking for documentation on entry points for avifil32.dll
I have seen some examples of people using avifil32.dll to read / write AVI files and the DLL is supplied in Windows XP (possibly not Vista / Win 7). However even though its used in an example for the extern keyword of C# on MSDN I can't find any documentation on it there. Where can I find a list of functions or entry points into avifil3...
How do I compile a module without an EntryPoint?
I have a utility module for GWT which doesn't have an UI (hence, there is no class which inherits from com.google.gwt.core.client.EntryPoint. When I try to compile this module with GWT 1.7.1, I get this error: [ERROR] Module has no entry points defined How do I get rid of this error? Do I really have to define a dummy entry point? How...
Why not call FreeLibrary from entry point function?
I'm writing a DLL that needs to call a separated DLL dynamically multiple times. I would like to keep the callee loaded and then just unload it when my DLL is unloaded. But according to Microsoft, that's a bad idea. The entry point function should only perform simple initialization tasks and should not call any other DLL loadin...
GWT Compile "Add an entry point module" dialog
Can anyone explain where the Eclipse GWT plugin defines it's entry points? In an attempt to get my old GWT project working again with GWT 2.0, I created a default GWT 2.0 project in Eclipse and was able to run it successfully. It's the one that asks for a name and calls the 'greet' servlet on the server, which responds etc... so far so ...
Access public EntryPoint fields in GWT
In GWT is there a way for a widget to access a public member of the application's EntryPoint class? I want to store certain "application-wide" data in the EntryPoint class, and then have widgets access these fields and behave differently according on their values. In my mind it seems simple enough, but I just can't find the code for it a...
How to disable WinMain entry point for a MFC application?
I understand that is not possible to have applications with multiple entry points under Windows. I have a MFC application and I added code for making it running as a service (main() entry point and other required stuff) but it looks that Windows will always run the WinMain() from MFC instead of my main. The question is how can I disabl...
How to add a wrapper to the MFC WinMain?
I want to add a wrapper to the MFC WinMain in order to be able to make a MFC application be able run as GUI application or as a service. Can I add a wrapper to WinMail from MFC without modifying MFC source code? ...
"run-time error '453' can't find dll entry point" from vb.net compiled dll referenced by vba
I am coding in vb.net through visual studio 2008. I have successfully compiled a dll file from my code but I continue to get "Run-time error '453'" when I try to reference the dll in vba. I understand there is some sort of compiling error that occurs when using vb.net. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix/overcome this issue? I would ...
Android: When application was killed, how to set entrypoint for new startup?
I am using a separate class with only static fields, to store current application data. It is partly populated from sharedpreferences on application startup. The rest is data like results of some action, used for further browsing these results (multiple activities that use the results). I can go to the home screen, start other applicati...
Const-Qualification of Main's Parameters in C++
The C++ standard mandates that all conforming implementations support the following two signatures for main: int main(); int main(int, char*[]); In case of the latter signature, would the addition of (top-level) const-ness break any language rules? For example: int main(const int argc, char** const argv); From my understanding, t...
Multiple Entry Points in GWT
I'm getting into Google Web Toolkit, and am a little confused about the Entry Points in GWT. Google's docs say: If you have multiple EntryPoints (the interface that defines onModuleLoad()) within a module, they will all be called in sequence as soon as that module (and the outer document) is ready. If you are loading multiple GWT ...
Where is the information about the entry point of an assembly written in the assembly?
I used to think that an assembly could have only one main() method until I saw Jon Skeet's MiscUtil in a video lecture he delivered at the Microsoft office in Copenhagen. So, I wrote this little app that had two main() methods like so: namespace ManyMains { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { ...
What is the earliest entrypoint that the CLR calls before calling any method in an assembly?
In the past years I've occasionally been wondering what equivalent of the (in)famous DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH was available in the .NET world. Any documentation I have says, slightly simplified, that the earliest entry point to a class is the static constructor (cctor), but you cannot influence when it is called, nor can you define one cctor t...
Avoiding the main (entry point) in a C program
Is it possible to avoid the entry point (main) in a C program. In the below code, is it possible to invoke the func() call without calling via main() in the below program ? If Yes, how to do it and when would it be required and why is such a provision given ? int func(void) { printf("This is func \n"); return 0; } int main(vo...
