VC中易犯的错误

在这里面总结一下VC中易常犯的错误.
一/前两天过一个串口的通迅程序,有如下一段代码:
HANDLE hCom=CreateFile(......);(构造函数里面将hCom=NULL)
if(hCom)
{
//如果hCom有值,则说明创建成功
}
else
{
//没成功
}
看上去好像没什么问题,其实错的很彻底.
Windows via c/c++中有这样一段话:

If CreateFile succeeds in creating or opening a file or device, the handle of the file or device is returned. If CreateFile fails, INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE is returned.

Note

Most Windows functions that return a handle return NULL when the function fails. However, CreateFile returns INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE (defined as –1) instead. I have often seen code like this, which is incorrect: HANDLE hFile = CreateFile(...); if (hFile == NULL) { // We'll never get in here } else { // File might or might not be created OK } Here's the correct way to check for an invalid file handle: HANDLE hFile = CreateFile(...); if (hFile == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) { // File not created } else { // File created OK }
