Projects:
Project #3 - Code Publisher Client Project3HelpS2019 - includes: Client-Channel-Server Diagram
Diagram showing use ofC++\CLI translater between WPF (C#) GUI and C++ Comm Channel.Prototype GUI for Project #3
Demonstrating Requirements with a GUI
The projects, below, are intended to help with Project #4. They are included so we can peek ahead to see where we need to go with Project #4. Project4Help WPF
Illustrates techniques used for WPF to use Comm via C++\CLI.Prototype GUI for Project #3
Uses C++\CLI translator to interoperate with C++ Comm to navigate a remote directory tree.Project #4 - Remote Code Page Management Project4HelpS2019 - includes: Communication Channel Structure
Diagrams that show how asynchronous message passing communication works.Communication Channel Class Diagram
Class diagram of our protype communication channel.Communication Channel Activities
Activity diagram showing message flow through the communcation channel.CppCommWithFileXfer - Communication Channel Code
Here's code you can use to implement message-passing communication.Project4HelpWPF code demo
A getting-started GUI prototype that shows one way to build a client for Project #4.C++ Repository with WPF GUI - code demo
This demo illustrates use of User Controls as well as remote directory navigation. -
Win32 Sockets
Win32 Sockets Presentation, pptx, Windows Sockets Error Codes C++ Sockets, C++ StringServer
This is the recommended source for sockets starter code. Message Passing Communication
Discusses a proposed structure for message-passing communication for both Sockets and WCF. Tasks and ThreadPool
Listeners for High load servers should use threadpool to run client handlers. HTTP style message-passing with File Transfer
Demonstrates how to process HTTP style messages and send files. Has an HttpMessage class. Some of the server message handling could be better organized and made simpler. C++/CLI WPF application
Illustrates how to build a GUI using C++/CLI. Uses a mock channel to show how to organize threading. This is important because managed code (C++/CLI and C#) must use .Net threads, but our channels all use C++11 threads. This demo shows how to do that.

C++11 - new features
Herb Sutter's excellent and brief overview from his Blog C++11 concurrency
Threads, locks, condition variables, async, futures, promises, packaged_tasks, and atomics C++11 BlockingQueue
Uses condition variable and mutex to build a queue that blocks deQers when empty. Str strings
Demonstrates move constructor and move assignment. Component Reference Counting
Demonstrates variadic templates and functions. Symbol Table
Illustrates how using aliases are a great design tool. Also demonstrates range-based for loops. Chrono Timer
Uses Chrono library to build a high resolution timer precise to about 100 nanoseconds. Callable Objects
Demonstrates lambdas and compares them to function pointers and functors. Singleton
Uses atomic. Uniform Initialization
Illustrates use of uniform initialization for user defined types and STL containers. -
