Hi,Jarl. I have a template instantiation problem, please help me, 3KS.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.I have a user defined struct
struct ReportParameter
{
    BOOL    bNormal;
    BOOL    bOverflow;

    BOOL    bUsePort;

    BOOL    bSTM1;
    BOOL    bSTM4;
    BOOL    bSTM16;
    BOOL    bSTM64;

    vector<UINT>        arrayObjectID;
};

struct PeriodicalReport
{
    UINT    nReportNumber;  
    UINT    nReportType;
    UINT    nPeriod;
    UINT    nCreateOn;  
    UINT    nReportStatus;
    UINT    nPeriodicalFlag
    ReportParameter stParameter;
    string  strReportName;
    string  strCreateAt;
    string  strMinTime;
    string  strMaxTime;
};
2.Then I define a outside serialize function
namespace SF {

    inline void serializeBytes(SF::Archive &ar, const void *pbytes, 
const unsigned int cbSize)
    {
        if (ar.isRead())
            dynamic_cast<SF::IStream *>(ar.getIstream())->read
((char *)pbytes, cbSize);
        else if (ar.isWrite())
            dynamic_cast<SF::OStream *>(ar.getOstream())->writeRaw((char *)
pbytes, cbSize);
    }


    template<typename Archive>
        void serialize(Archive &ar,PeriodicalReport& 
periodicalReport)
    {
        serializeBytes(ar, &periodicalReport, offsetof
(PeriodicalReport, stParameter));

        ar  &periodicalReport.stParameter 
            &periodicalReport.strCreateAt 
&periodicalReport.strReportName &periodicalReport.strMinTime 
            &periodicalReport.strMaxTime 
&periodicalReport.nPeriodicalFlag ;
    }

3. And I also have a export dll function
void RCFSERIALIZEAPI SerializePeriodicalReport(PeriodicalReport& 
stPeriodicalReport, string& strBinaryData, UINT& nSize, BOOL bStore)
{
   SerializeObject(stPeriodicalReport, strBinaryData, nSize, bStore);
}

template <class Object>
void SerializeObject(Object& stObject, string& strBinaryData, UINT& nSize, 
BOOL bStore)
{
    if(bStore)
    {
        std::ostringstream os;
        SF::OBinaryStream ostr(os);
        ostr << stObject;
        strBinaryData = os.str();
        nSize = strBinaryData.length();
    }
    else
    {
        std::istringstream is(strBinaryData);
        SF::IBinaryStream istr(is);
        istr >> stObject;
    }
}

At Last, I build my project, get following errors:

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The compiler doesn't konw which function should call.
in serializer.hpp
there is a function,

   template<typename T>
    inline void serialize(
        Archive &                           archive, 
        T &                                 t)
    {
        typedef typename boost::is_enum<T>::type type;
        serializeEnumOrNot(archive, t, (type *) NULL);
    }

and in my cpp, also have a function
template<typename Archive>
        void serialize(Archive &ar,PeriodicalReport& 
periodicalReport)
    {}



What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
RCF1.2,vc9(sp1),Windows XP,boost1.42.0,stlport5.2.1

Please provide any additional information below.
I just upgrade RCF1.0 to RCF1.2, my code works fine with RCF1.0.

Compiling on Linux without defining RCF_USE_BOOST_ASIO yields the compiler 
error:

In file included from RCF.cpp:67:
TcpEndpoint.cpp:28:38: error: RCF/TcpServerTransport.hpp: No such file or 
directory

Expected behavior should be to build OK, and be able to run client side 
code (i.e. code that doesn't use RcfServer).

Can you please help me out to resolve this problem on using SSL(OpenSSL) 
transport filter?
I'm tring to send 512KB of data to server, and receive back the same amount of 
data.

Thanks.


Setup of SSL filter on client:
filterPtr.reset( new RCF::OpenSslEncryptionFilter(
        clientCert,
        clientCertPass,
        caCert);

getClientStub().requestTransportFilters(filterPtr);


Setup of SSL service and filter on server:
    filterServicePtr = RCF::FilterServicePtr(new RCF::FilterService());

    server.addService(filterServicePtr);


    filterServicePtr->addFilterFactory(
        RCF::FilterFactoryPtr( new RCF::OpenSslEncryptionFilterFactory(
        serverCert,
        serverCertPass,
        caCert)));


and remote call looks like this:

    BOOL processCmd(std::string &s)
    {
        if(IsTransportSecured(RCF::getCurrentRcfSession()))
        {       
            cout << "ByteBuffer has been received" << endl;
            char *bufToSend = new char[512*1024];
            memset(bufToSend, 0, 512*1024);

            for(int i = 0; i < 512*1024; i++)
            {
                srand(i);
                bufToSend[i] = rand(); 
            }

            s = std::string(bufToSend, 512*1024);
            return TRUE;
        }
        else
        {
            RCF::getCurrentRcfSession().disconnect();
        }

        return FALSE;
    }

First of all I get the assert window with the following info:
---------------------------

I am having issues with receiving a value back from a client.  Other
functions work, but this one does not....  I have tried returning a boolean
and a long (long's work on other function calls, just not this particular.
 This example is where I am attempting to try returning a long.

CLIENT SIDE:
long setLocation(std::string in_str)
    {
        bool flag = false;
        std::cout<<"cUFEImpl::setLocation() called in_str =
"<<in_str<<std::endl;

        flag = m_timezone.setlocation(in_str);

        std::cout<<"cUFEImpl::setLocation() status flag = "<<flag<<std::endl;

        if (flag == true)
        {
           std::cout<<"cUFEImpl::setLocation() returnign 9999"<<std::endl;
            return 9999;
        }
        return 0;
    }

SERVERSIDE:
bool sendTimeZone(std::string in_str)
{
#ifdef DEBUGOUT
    loggerimpl<<"cISSUFEImpl::sendTimeZone() called_val";
#endif
   try
   {
       long flag = -1;
       std::cout<<"ISSUFE::sendTimeZone() - Calling MA to set location with
"<<in_str<<std::endl;
       flag = mClient.setLocation(in_str);
       std::cout<<"ISSUFE::sendTimeZone() - MA returned
"<<(long)flag<<std::endl;
       if (flag > 0)
         return true;
       return false;
   }
   catch(...)
   {
#ifdef DEBUGOUT
       loggerimpl<<"cISSUFEImpl::sendTimeZone() Exception occurred.";
#endif
       return false;
   }
}

Attached is the IDL.  Server and Client are separate processes and builds,
but the IDL's are the same.

Here is what I receive when this code is called... 
ISSUFE::sendTimeZone() - Calling MA to set location with US/Michigan
cUFEImpl::setLocation() called in_str = US/Michigan
cTimeZoneObject()::setlocation()called inloc = US/Michigan
cTimeZoneObject()::setlocation() setting location genstring = ln -sf
/usr/share/zoneinfo/posix/US/Michigan /mnt/sdcard/.cxc/localtime
cUFEImpl::setLocation() status flag = 1
cUFEImpl::setLocation() returnign 9999
ISSUFE::sendTimeZone() - MA returned 0

So the Server is actually receiving a 0 and changing the initialized -1
value to 0.

I am compiling with the following parameters:
RCF_USE_BOOST_ASIO
RCF_USE_BOOST_READ_WRITE_MUTEX
RCF_USE_BOOST_THREADS
BOOST_ASIO_HAS_LOCAL_SOCKETS
RCF_USE_ZLIB

Any ideas on what might be happening?  As I said earlier though, other
functions work just fine and return what I would expect (including longs).

[deleted issue]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. compile the rcf server code with g++ 

When we compile the code , we are getting a warning :: converting of 
negative value 0x000000001 to "size_t" . What can we do so that we won't 
get this warning during compilation.

We are using this rcf and we are trying to build a release build. Our 
compilation output is endup in warnings like this. Can you please tell us 
what to do not to get this warning message during compilation. 

if we turn off the warning with -Werror, we are ending up in compilation 
error.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version: RCF1.0 
Operating system: Linux


Thanks
-Raveendra

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download project tar-file
2. Go into the demo/cmake subfolder.
3. cmake CMakeLists.txt
4. make

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
There are two error shown in the console:
c++: /wd4275: No such file or directory
c++: /wd4251: No such file or directory

And the build of the shared library libRcfDll.so failed with the message:
make[1]: *** [RcfDll/CMakeFiles/RcfDll.dir/all] Error 2


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
RCF 1.2
Ubuntu 9.10

Please provide any additional information below.
When you do another (incremental) build with make, then the shared lib is also 
build. Currently i do not know exactly why that is so.
But attached is a patch for a condition in the RcfDll/CMakeLists.txt to disable 
warnings only if an MSVC compiler is used.

Below are the source code of the server and client using NamedPipeEndpoint.

When there is only 1 client everything works just OK. But when I try to start 
second client, either client.connect() or ssPtr->beginSubscribe fails with the 
following exceptions:

On calling client.connect() in the client code:
Failed to connect: [25] Server side object not found. Service: I_TestCMD. 
Interface: I_TestCMD.

and on calling .beginSubscribe()
Server side object not found. Service: I_RequestSubscription. Interface: I_Reque
stSubscription.


There are no problems when using TcpEndpoint

I am using the RCF connection for Flash Media Server Backend to pass

happens when there are many connections simultaneously.

Hi Jarl,

Is there a provision for binding a particular thread in a Multi threaded
client  to a particular  thread in multi threaded server?

suppose,  there is Multi threaded Client with 5 threads in it and Multi
threaded Server with 5 threads. 

Always 1st client thread should communicate ONLY  to 1st server thread.
like wise 

2nd client thread should communicate ONLY  to 2nd Server Thread  etc. and so on

5th client thread should communicate ONLY  to 5th server thread.

Thanks
Regards,
-Raveendra

Hi Jarl

I´m Miguel Penteado from FCA UNESP University in Brazil, Botucatu city, 
São Paulo province.

 I try RFC in my Master Degree Project software, Aton System [do not to 
confuse it with Atom], a Solar Radiometry OpenSource Software. 


So, i had use cmake 2.6 to create an automated library install process for 
windows and make library more popular in Brazil. 

before continue you will need to install

Cmake 2.6 
http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Download.html

and NULLSOFT NSIS
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Download


(This will should work in Posix too, with some adjust.)

# What is modified

The packet RCF-0.9d-P1 has in it this directory structure:


              |----demo--- .... 
              |
              |               |----RCF-- "Headers"
              |----include----|
              |               |----SF-- "Headers"
              |
              |                 |---RCF--- "Compilable code" ->*RCF.cpp*
RCF-0.9d-P1---|----src----------|
              |                 |---SF---- "Compilable code" ->*SF.cpp*
              |
              |
              |----test---------....
              |

so i add the VC into tree (that contain Visual C++ 2009 project generated 
by cMake).



              |----demo--- .... 
              |
              |               |----RCF-- "Headers"
              |----include----|
              |               |----SF-- "Headers"
              |
              |                 |---RCF--- "Compilable code" ->*RCF.cpp*
RCF-0.9d-P1---|----src----------|
              |                 |---SF---- "Compilable code" ->*SF.cpp*

              |
              |----vc---- "Cmake generated Visual c++ Project "
              |
              |----test---------....
              |

And include cmalists.txt (that will guide Cmake project creation) into 
directory tree like next:


                              |----demo--- .... 
                              |

                              |
                              |                    |-RCF-CmakeLists.txt

# What you need to do:
if you want to build package installer only 
  1- You need Visual c++ 8 (2009) installed 
  2- go into ..\RCF-0.9d-P1\vc\
  3- open RCF.sln project
  4- Build subproject install
  5- Build subproject PACKAGE
  6- RCF-0.9d.0-win32.exe will be created
  7- install it

if you want to rebuild c++ visual studio package project 
  1- Open Cmake for windows
  2- point "Where is source code" to 
   (your_unpack_source_dir)\RCF-0.9d-P1\
  3- point "Where to build binaries" to 
   (your_unpack_source_dir)\RCF-0.9d-P1\vc\

  press configure button 2 or 3 times (ignore warnings)
  When OK button is enables, prees it

  4- go into ..\RCF-0.9d-P1\vc\
  5- open RCF.sln project
  6- Build subproject install
  7- Build subproject PACKAGE
  8- RCF-0.9d.0-win32.exe will be created
  9- install it


Then, this will generate a c++ project for a binary package that will 
install this tree into Win32 structure:


                              |----demo--- .... 
                              |

                              |
                              |                    |-RCF--- "*.cpp" 
C:\Program Files\RCF\0.9d\----|-src----------------|
                              |                    |-SF-----"*.cpp" 
                              |
                              |           |--RCF.DLL
                              |----lib----|--RCF.lib
                              |           |--SF.DLL
                              |           |--SF.lib
                              |
                              |----test---------....
                              |

So, user 
# after install package
1- add C:\Program Files\RCF\0.9d\include in %INCLUDE% System variable
2- add C:\Program Files\RCF\0.9d\lib     in %LIB%     System variable

And run samples in 
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/threads/Rcf_Ipc_For_Cpp.aspx?display=Print

The source modified is set attached for you.

Hello,

Is it possible to instantiate init class RCF::RcfInitDeinit globally?
When I try doing so I get an assert in boost library.

All I want is to create RcfClient instance at the application's earliest 
execution time, even before main() function is called.

Thanks.

How can server socket know the connection or disconnection of clients when 
I use RCF to write a chatroom program?

Thanks

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Compile and run the following code

#include "RCF/Idl.hpp"
#include "RCF/SessionObjectFactoryService.hpp"
#include "RCF/TcpEndpoint.hpp"

RCF_BEGIN(I_Echo, "I_X")
        RCF_METHOD_R1(std::string, echo, const std::string &)
RCF_END(I_Echo)

class Echo
{
        public:
                std::string echo(std::string &a)
                {
                        return a;
                }
};


int main(void)
{
        RCF::RcfServer server( RCF::TcpEndpoint(50001));
        RCF::RcfServer server2( RCF::TcpEndpoint(50002));

        RCF::SessionObjectFactoryServicePtr sofsPtr(
                        new RCF::SessionObjectFactoryService());
        RCF::SessionObjectFactoryServicePtr sofsPtr2(
                        new RCF::SessionObjectFactoryService());

        sofsPtr->bind<I_Echo,Echo>();
        sofsPtr2->bind<I_Echo,Echo>();
        server.addService(sofsPtr);
        server2.addService(sofsPtr2);

        std::size_t threadCount = 2;
        server.setThreadPool( RCF::ThreadPoolPtr( new RCF::ThreadPool(threadCount)));
        server2.setThreadPool( RCF::ThreadPoolPtr( new RCF::ThreadPool(threadCount)));

        server.start();
        server2.start();

        sleep(50);
}

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The code launches two multithreaded servers and wait for incoming connections. 
The process keeps the CPU load on 100% without any client connection. Launching 
one single thread on each server works fine. Launching only one server with 
several threads also works fine. 


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I'm using RCF 1.3 on a GNU/Linux system (Ubuntu).


Please provide any additional information below.


Thanks in advance.

I can't compile the client project on the WINCE 5.0/ARM, it reports:
Error 2 fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'io.h': No such file 
or directory h:\business\develop\rcf-
0.9c\include\rcf\util\platform\os\Windows\BsdSockets.hpp 1
Also I find a message:
In addition, third parties have deployed RCF on QNX, WinCE and OS X 
platforms, and on Windows/Linux platforms using the Intel C++ 9 compiler. 
On http://code.google.com/p/rcf-cpp/, So, can anyone give me some advices 
on RCF on WINCE?

Thanks a lot! 

Suggest modifying the "ByteOrder.hpp" file located /RCF/util/Platform/Machine/

To check for ARM processor.  In my case it was Little Endian.  Thus added:
#elif defined(__arm__)
#include "x86/ByteOrder.hpp"

I inserted this after line 26 and before the "#else   #include
"UnknownMachine/ByteOrder.hpp"

otherwise it compiles and runs on an ARM processor with a linux kernel.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. unzip source zip file
2. cd to top of extracted source
3. find ./ -name "[Mm]akefile"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
src/RCF/Makefile
src/SF/Makefile

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
linux, Fedora Core 8 

Please provide any additional information below.
gcc version 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33)

Compiling the demo application with gcc 4.3 yields:

../MyService.hpp:11: error: declaration of ‘typedef struct RcfClient 
MyService::RcfClient’
../MyService.hpp:11: error: changes meaning of ‘RcfClient’ from ‘struct 
RcfClient’

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to compile RCF.cpp with MSVC 10.0

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Successful compilation

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
rcf-cpp 1.2
Boost 1.42
Visual Studio 2010 32bit with MSVC 10.0 on Windows 7 64-bit.

Please provide any additional information below.
Log attached. There are also some warnings.

RCF-1.2/include/RCF/Exception.hpp:400: warning: unused parameter ‘max’
RCF-1.2/include/RCF/Exception.hpp:401: warning: unused parameter ‘ip’

When creating many short lived named pipe connections to a server, 
assertions start to fail on the server, in several different places.

Attached a patch where I have moved the cmake files to the root directory and 
added install directives to be able to install it globally under Linux.

This is used in my Debian packaging of the library available at:

https://github.com/mkotsbak/librcf-cpp

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Make rcf1.0 to a dll and use it in program.
2. write a function and it has a reference type variable declaration.
3. When a client call that function then return a value to it of reference 
variable,but the server collapsed just this time.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
If use rcf lib in program on static library compiler mode, It will work 
very well, but the program link very slowly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The rcf version is 1.0, The Operation system is Vista sp1

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Compile the attached test program
2. Run it
3. Look at the generated file testfile_SF_text.txt that it is binary

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The file should be ASCII text.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.1

Please provide any additional information below.

Hi Jarl,

does this RCF1.0 supports  named pipes in both Windows and Unix Flavours ?

--Raveendra

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start with a pub/sub example, add a RCF method taking a string
2. Start the publisher & subscriber
2. Publish a huge string, 10000 chars works for me

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The method silently fails, does not throw. All other publish methods sent
after also silently fail. Sending a huge string over a normal remote call
doesn't seem to have this problem.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
RCF 1.1, windows XP

Please provide any additional information below.

In case it matters, my test app is pretty much the same as the example in
your article:

    // PUBLISH

    // PropMaps always publish on the specified port. Will listen on all
network interfaces.
    RCF::TcpEndpoint endpoint( "0.0.0.0", port );
    m_svrPtr.reset( new RCF::RcfServer(endpoint) );
    m_pubSvcPtr.reset( new RCF::PublishingService() );

    m_svrPtr->addService(m_pubSvcPtr);
    m_svrPtr->start();

    // Start accepting subscription requests for I_Props.
    m_pubSvcPtr->beginPublish<I_Props>();


    // SUBSCRIBE
    RCF::TcpEndpoint endpoint( -1 );
    RcfServerPtr subSvrPtr( new RCF::RcfServer(endpoint));

    RCF::SubscriptionServicePtr subSvcPtr(
        new RCF::SubscriptionService() );

    subSvrPtr->addService( subSvcPtr );
    subSvrPtr->start();

    subSvcPtr->beginSubscribe<I_Props>( *this,
       RCF::TcpEndpoint(host, port) ); 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Build the following code from the tutorial 

// Attached the header and source file so you can see defines we use to build 
RCF library
//
#include "../../src/libRCF.h"

#include <iostream>
RCF_BEGIN(I_X, "I_X")
    RCF_METHOD_R2(int, add, int, int)
RCF_END(I_X)
class X
{
public:
    int add(int a, int b) { return a+b; }
};

int main (int, char **)
{
    RCF::init();

    std::string format = "%B %E(%F): (Tid:%D)(Time::%H): %X";
    util::LoggerPtr loggerPtr = util::LoggerPtr(new util::Logger ( RCF::LogNameRcf, 4, util::LogToStdout(), format ));
    loggerPtr->activate();

    //>>> BDM: temp
    X x;
    RCF::RcfServer server( RCF::TcpEndpoint(0));
    server.bind<I_X>(x);
    server.start();

    try
    {
        int port = server.getIpServerTransport().getPort();

        int a = 2;
        int b = 3;
        std::cout 
            << "Client: requesting addition of " 
            << a << " and " << b << std::endl;

        int sum = RcfClient<I_X>( RCF::TcpEndpoint(port)).add(a,b);

        std::cout << "Client: server responded with " << sum << std::endl;
    }
    catch(const std::exception &e)
    {
        std::cout << "Caught exception:\n";
        std::cout << "Type: " << typeid(e).name() << "\n";
        std::cout << "What: " << e.what() << "\n";
    }

    RCF::deinit();
    return 0;
}

2. Build and run/step through it
3. Client throws exception about connection being forcibly closed by server

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

RCF 1.3 on 32 bit Windows (both Vista and 2000 Pro), Building and running in 
Visual Studio 2010

Please provide any additional information below.

I tried debugging this with no luck. I built the (almost) exact same code 
against RCF 1.1 and it works perfectly. The only difference was the removal of 
the logging setup since that was added in 1.3.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
WinXP VC6.0 SP6

Please provide any additional information below.

When Build RCF1.1 with VC6.0, I got following errors 

error C2146: syntax error : missing ',' before identifier 'CERT_CONTEXT'
error C2065: 'CERT_CONTEXT' : undeclared identifier

then I #define _WIN32_WINNT = 0x0500, and get follwing errors,which is the 
typical 102 errors of winsock.How to fix it, Jarl? Thanks very much.

...................

I have one RcfServer listening on 10.0.0.1 and two clients on the same machine 
with two IP addresses available: 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.3. I want one client bound 
to 10.0.0.2 and the other one to 10.0.0.3.
At this moment, the server identifies both clients coming from the same machine 
(that's OK) and with the same IP address (that's bad).
Is it possible to specify an IP address to be used by a RcfClient object? 
On the server, in order to obtain the client's address, I use:

RCF::getCurrentRcfSession().getRemoteAddress().string();

Of course, on different machines, everything works fine.

   An RCF connection normally allows requests to flow in only one 
direction. If an application’s design requires the server to make 
callbacks to a client, the server normally establishes a new connection to 
that client in order to send callback requests or use publish/subscribe 
servers;

  If i establish bidirectional connections, Requests may flow in both 
directions over a bidirectional connection, enabling server to send 
callback requests to a client over the client’s existing connection to 
the server.

   Do the RCF 1.1  support it?

Steps to reproduce compiler errors because of wrong use of the "_T"-macro:
1. Take the demo project and call the project-property window of the
Client-project.
2. Set "Configuration Properties/General/Character Set/" to "Not Set".
3. Under "Configuration Properties/C/C++/Command Line/Additional Options"
add "\D UNICODE".
4. Rebuild client project.

Then there will be several compiler errors in file sspifilter.hpp, for example:
" cannot convert from 'const char [1]' to 'const RCF::tstring &'", line 186

The macro "_T" is used to convert "" into a char or a wchar_t.
The typedef "tstring" is a std::string or a std::wstring.

With the define "UNICODE", typedef tstring is a std::wstring.
But without define "_UNICODE", _T"" is populated to "", not to L"" and
causes the compiler errors.


Issue occurred in Version 0.9d.

I think, a define UNICODE does not means that the define "_UNICODE" is
automatically there too.
UNICODE is a define for the windows-header (take the ...W variants of the
API Calls).
_UNICODE is a define for the C-Runtime.

Hi Jarl,

Does the code base 1.0 support the Asynchronous calls?

Will it be possible to use RCF in the solutions where the Proactor/Reactor
appear as viable design options? if so can you please let me know how?

Problem:  There has to be an RCF server. Which has to accept requests from
multiple clients. RCF Server has to reply back synchronously  or
asynchronously depending on the request? 


Thanks
Regards,
-Raveendra

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Establish a connection with ping-backs
2. Make a remote call to a long-running method
3. Wait

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Instead of running to completion, runaway recursion causes a stack overflow to 
occur long into waiting.

RCF 1.3 (I believe 1.2 had some ping-back issues so I'm not using 1.3)
This only occurred for me on Windows (Vista, MSVC 2008); maybe Linux (Ubuntu 
9.04) just allocated a larger stack though.


Please provide any additional information below.

See the attached source which I ran to produce the issue.  It's based off the 
ping-back demo snippets given in the user guide with some slight embellishments 
which reflect my actual application more closely (but shouldn't affect the 
issue).

Hi, Jarl
Recently, I upgrade my code from RCF0.9 to RCF1.1, I find a problem.

I define a interface below:
RCF_METHOD_R2(int,RCF_GetPartInfo,const vector<int>&,CPartInfoArray&);

when I call this method, I get a error:
Thread-id=5252 : Timestamp(ms)=72203: THROW : class RCF::Exception : [57: 
Input data format error.][0: No sub system.][0: ][What: ][Context: ]: 
byte=�, 

I try to debug this problem, I find the const parameter is also serialized 
and sent to client when the server implementation has done(sever return 
result to client).But the client just deserialize the out and return 
Type.That's weird.

Then I change the const vector<int>& to vector<int>& , it works fine.
I try other interfaces with const parameter, they have the same error as 
described before.
PS:
RCF_METHOD_R2(int,RCF_GetPartInfo,const vector<int>&,CPartInfoArray&);
s interface works fine with RCF0.9.

How to fix my probelm? Thanks very much.


What steps will reproduce the problem?



What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
WinXP VC6.0 SP6 boost1.33

Please provide any additional information below.
1)In server side , I used RCF::SessionObjectFactoryServicePtr to create 
server object.
2)And I build with these preprocessor definitions:
WIN32,_DEBUG,_WINDOWS,_MBCS,_USRDLL,RCFSERIALIZEDLL_EXPORTS,_WINSOCKAPI_,RC
F_MULTI_THREADED,RCF_RCF_USE_SF_SERIALIZATION,_DLL,_WIN32_WINNT=0x0500,WIN3
2_LEAN_AND_MEAN


in attachments, the interface is 
RCF_METHOD_R2(int, RCF_GetAlarmCase, const ALARMCASEFILTER&, 
ALARMCASE_VCT&);
you can see in response(see call stack),the ALARMCASEFILTER has been 
serialized.
