Thread: Help Re-initalizing a Program

how are you instantiating the struct/class? how are you using it in your program?

Thanks for getting back to me. I've been banging my head on this project for a long time.

I believe its getting instantiated in the include file. However, I'm new to C++ so I'm not sure if I know what I'm talking about. Its probably easiest if I post the code for you to look at.

Its using CFAPI which is an interface for Coldfusion. pRequest is used for writing/setting variables in a Coldfusion page. I'm passing a string from Coldfusion to the dll named Smiles.



Here's the include file:

Code:

#define NMLN   120
#define MFLN    60
#define SMLN   120

struct chemical {
	int	seqnum;
	char	name[NMLN];
	int	cas;
	char	molform[MFLN];
	char	smiles[SMLN];
	int	proppnt;
	int	db_loc;
};

Here's the main function of my DLL:

Code:

char ErrorList[1000];	
char WarningList[125];	


	

// ProcessTagRequest.CPP Defines the entry point of the program


void ProcessTagRequest( CCFXRequest* pRequest ) 

{

     try
     {
        
		 
		 ErrorList[0] = '\0'; // Added By Me
		 WarningList[0] = '\0';// Added By Me
		
		
		 struct chemical	chem; // one and only chemical for this program */
	

		// prototypes */

		void resmi(char *,int);
		int setatomgr(struct chemical *);
		void tcosmi(char *,int);

			
		char	redone[SMLN+1];
		char	unique[SMLN+1];


		int	result;

		int	i;


		// preset strings to zero, since we don't
		// know where the terminators are going
 		// to occur

		for (i = 0 ; i <= SMLN ; i++) {
		redone[i] = '\0';
		unique[i] = '\0';
		}		 


		// Make sure a Smiles attribute was actually passed to the tag
		if ( pRequest->AttributeExists("Smiles")==FALSE ) {
		pRequest->ThrowException(
		"Error in CFX_SmilesParser Tag",
		"No Smiles attribute specified.");
		}
		 
		// Retrieve attributes passed to the tag          
        LPCSTR lpszSmiles = pRequest->GetAttribute("Smiles") ;


		// BEGIN BASIC VALIDATION */


		// make sure the attribute value is not empty

		if (strlen(lpszSmiles) == 0) {

			strcat(ErrorList,"Error: Empty Smiles String");
		}

		else if (strlen(lpszSmiles)> NMLN - 1) {
			
			strcat(ErrorList,"Error: The length of the Smiles string is too long");

		}

		else {



			strcpy(chem.name,lpszSmiles);
			strcpy(chem.smiles,lpszSmiles);
			chem.seqnum = 1; /* one and only chemical for this program to process */
			result = setatomgr(&chem);
			resmi(redone,SMLN);
			
			if (result) {
			resmi(redone,SMLN);
			tcosmi(unique,SMLN);
			}
		
			pRequest->SetVariable("unique",unique);
			
			pRequest->SetVariable("WarningList",WarningList);
			
		
		}

		pRequest->SetVariable("ErrorList",ErrorList);

        // Output optional debug info
        if ( pRequest->Debug() )
        {
           pRequest->WriteDebug( "Debug info..." ) ;
        }
     }

     // Catch Cold Fusion exceptions & re-raise them
     catch( CCFXException* e )
     {
          pRequest->ReThrowException( e ) ;
     }
     
     // Catch ALL other exceptions and throw them as 
     // Cold Fusion exceptions (DO NOT REMOVE! -- 
     // this prevents the server from crashing in 
     // case of an unexpected exception)
     catch( ... )
     {
          pRequest->ThrowException( 
               "Error occurred in tag CFX_SmilesParser",
               "Unexpected error occurred while processing tag." ) ;
     }
