I'm thinking you should focus on getting the database-related code working first before introducing multiple threads to the mix.

Greetings!
We have been trying to track down errors that in our application that happen at random times on our customer's Windows Server 2003 system, and the only thing we know about them is the memory address given in an Application Popup event in the system event log. We do not have any application error events corresponding to these messages.
I found that Dr. Watson was disabled on their machine, so I enabled it. To test it, I wrote a quick application that will try to divide by zero or to write to memory address 0x00000000. In both cases, a message box should be displayed should the program get past the error statement. When I ran the program on their system, I was very surprised to see that neither error generated any kind of response! I did not get the infamous "Your application has encountered a problem and needs to close" box, I did not get any messages in any event log, and the messages after the errors happen did not appear. The application just silently ended.
Is there some setting someplace in Windows Server 2003 system that controls whether or not errors will result in user notifications or log messages?
Thanks very much!

When is an MFC application fully realized?
---
I've got an MFC application A that creates a new MFC dialog application B with CreateProcess.
When application B is created, A looses focus and I need to have A reclaim the focus.
I've tried a few different things but none seem to be working.
I create the process like this:
if( CreateProcess( NULL, cCommandLine.GetBuffer(), NULL, NULL, FALSE, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS, NULL, NULL, &si, pi ) )
{
WaitForInputIdle (pi->hProcess, INFINITE);
return (pi->hProcess);
}
After that, I tried individually or mix'n'match between them:
mainframe->SetFocus();
mainframe->ActivateFrame();
mainframe->PostMessage( WM_ACTIVATEAPP, TRUE, 0 );
mainframe->PostMessage( WM_ACTIVATE, TRUE, 0 );
I even tried sending (HWND_BROADCAST) a message from B to A at the end of B's OnInitDialog, but maybe it's too early in B life-time to broadcast that message.
- Am I missing something ?
- Can A reclaim itself the focus ? or re-activate itself without user intervention ?
- When is B fully realized and ready so I can broadcast a message back to A ?
Thanks.
Max.

How about letting B's user interface not claiming the focus in the first place? For example by setting your starup info si.wShowWindow to value SW_SHOWMINIMIZED or SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE (see MSDN). Now it depends on B and no need for more inter process communication.
Hope it helps!

Thanks for the info ..
I tried doing this with a simple dummy project and it does not work, B (the secondary application) is still active after the CreateProcess.
// for the sake of experimenting, created a simple MDI application (A) and a simple dialog application (B)
void CMainFrame::OnOpensubOpen()
{
PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;
ZeroMemory(&pi, sizeof(PROCESS_INFORMATION));
STARTUPINFO si;
CString cCommandLine=_T("C:\\Users\\me\\Documents\\B\\Debug\\B.exe");
ZeroMemory( &si, sizeof( STARTUPINFO ) );
si.cb = sizeof( STARTUPINFO );
si.dwFlags = STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW;
si.wShowWindow = SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE;
if( CreateProcess( NULL, cCommandLine.GetBuffer(), NULL, NULL, FALSE, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS, NULL, NULL, &si, &pi ) )
{
WaitForInputIdle (pi.hProcess, INFINITE);
}
}
The SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE (or SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE or SW_SHOWNA ) does not work, the B application is still activated when started up;I've been able to "make it work" by using SW_MINIMIZE (doc says it will activates the next top-level window in the Z order).
Maybe I'm not certain what is active or not when a new UI process is created; When I create the process B, A is active, so if be is launched with the SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE flag, A should not be de-activated ?
Thanks again, still looking into this.

You can check application B if you have something similar to ShowWindow(m_nCmdShow) in your source code, here you can handle SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE in a special way (e.g. by not calling ShowWindow). Otherwise you can try to dig deeper and check where the focus change or dialog activation comes from (e.g. window message WM_ACTIVATEAPP).
Happy debugging!

I think that sending an HWND_BROADCAST message from the OnInitDialog of your B application is too early, because when it's called the window has not already shown, then your A application has not loosen the foucs yet.
You can try to send the same HWND_BROADCAST message the first time the OnActivateApp or the OnShowWindow is called in your B application.

An application cannot directly make itself the foreground app; only the active application can do that.
However, there are some fun tricks like having application B make application A the foreground app.
Another method is to attach to the foreground application:
DWORD foregroundProcessId = GetWindowThreadProcessId(::GetForegroundWindow(), NULL);
DWORD curThreadId = GetCurrentThreadId();
AttachThreadInput(foregroundProcessId, curThreadId, TRUE);
ShowWindow(hWnd, SW_SHOW);
BringWindowToTop(hWnd);
SetActiveWindow(hWnd);
SetForegroundWindow(hWnd);
SetFocus(hWnd);
AttachThreadInput(foregroundProcessId, curThreadId, FALSE);

If I have an CScrollView with few lines , rectangles and other , can I move scrollbar with mouse due the mouse is within client area ? Something like acrobat reader sheets , when the mouse cursor is hand , on OnLButtonDown mouse pointer change to 'MoveHand' cursor and OnMouseMove move scrollbars ?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, you could, but you have to write all the required code: provide an "hand" mode and change the cursor when that mode is active, then handle the WM_LBUTTONDOWN, WM_MOUSEMOVE and WM_LBUTTONUP to do it.
Basically, in the WM_LBUTTONDOWN message handler you have to set a flag that mean dragging and save the cursor location and the scrollbars position; in the WM_LBUTTONUP you have to reset the dragging flag. Finally, in the WM_MOUSEMOVE you have to test the dragging flag, and if it is set, set the scrollbars position to obtain a shift of your view that correspond to one that the mouse has been moved.

Thank you Viti . I develop this [^] project , that have implement all things that you said ... but I don't know how effectively move scrollbars considering mouse position on client area ... do you know some sample code ?
|
|
|
|
|
Try this article[^] from Microsoft, and refer to the IntelliMouse panning implementation.

|

Thanks again Viti , is not like what I want but from this sample I learn very much !!!!

I did it :
void CDragSheetView::OnLButtonDown(UINT nFlags, CPoint point)
{
m_point = point;
m_bMouseCapture = TRUE;
SetCursor(AfxGetApp()->LoadCursor(IDC_CURSOR_HANDMOVE));
SetCapture();
CScrollView::OnLButtonDown(nFlags, point);
}
void CDragSheetView::OnMouseMove(UINT nFlags, CPoint point)
{
if(m_bMouseCapture)
{
CPoint ptScroll = GetScrollPosition();
if(m_point.x < point.x)ptScroll.x -= (point.x - m_point.x);
if(m_point.x > point.x)ptScroll.x += (m_point.x - point.x);
if(m_point.y < point.y)ptScroll.y -= (point.y - m_point.y);
if(m_point.y > point.y)ptScroll.y += (m_point.y - point.y);
ScrollToPosition(ptScroll);
m_point = point;
}
CScrollView::OnMouseMove(nFlags, point);
}

I am trying to migrate our application to VS 2010, but ran into a roadblock concerning CodeJock's TookitPro libraries:
it appears the newest purchasable versions do not work with VS 2010! I've downloaded the trial from the newest build which does support 2010, but I found the trial libs/dlls have been compiled with compiler options that are incompatible with our application. Thus I would need to change the ToolkitPro project settings and manually rebuild it.
Only - there are no ToolkitPro project files!?
I contacted CodeJock Support, tried the forums, and the phone, but no responses in 3 days time - for all I know the company might not exist anymore.
Since CodeJock can not or will not help, is anyone here who has an idea what to do, i. e. how to get or maybe even create a project file that I could adapt to compatible settings and create a lib/dll that work with our application?
|

What version of Codejock ToolKitPro are you running?
We had issues with 9.7 (yeah I know its as old as the hills) under VS2010 as it docking windows wouldn't work as there has been a change in MFC.
To make it work you can change the VC toolkit your project is compiled against (this is found in the C++ section of your project), however this will mean it builds as a VS2008 project in real terms...
Alternatively take a look at this post I got back from the forum that will help (and it took over 6 months to get this reply)...

Thank you for your suggestions.
Regarding version I am not sure where to look that up. The lib is named ToolkitPro1113vc71U.lib, so maybe it's version 11.13 (?), compiled with VC 7.1 (VS 2003.NET). The 'U' indicates unicode character coding. The header files are dated from march 2007 and contain a 2007 copyright notice, but I didn't spot a version number there.
The trial version is ToolkitProEval1341vc100UD.lib, so that would mean version 13.41 ?
Our VS 2010 application does use the newer version (I deleted the libs and dlls of the older version to make sure it does) and it does compile, but not link.
What I need is a version that works with VS 2010 and is compiled with /Zc:wchar_t- . The trial version is compiled with /Zc:wchar_t+ .

We did play around with 13.xx trail versions back in January and haven't gotten any further than you and management have deemed it unimportant for the time being, we also found Codejock somewhat unhelpful when asking for assistance.
However the earlier versions do work and if you apply the fix suggested at the bottom of the forum post I included and you'll have the same functionality as you had previously.
Obviously if you have a need for more advance functionality then I'm affraid I can't help further...
|

Thanks, I might give it a try. Unfortunately this may not be a good solution though, since our main reason for switching to VS 2010 is taking advantage of the various parallel programming libraries, and I'm not at all sure which of these are being supported with VC9 
|
|
|
|
|
If you use the solution in the last post from this[^] you don't have to use the VC9 toolset. The fix addresses the non-docking issue that has crept in since MS updated MFC in vs2010.
So you'll still have the parallel bits you need and still use Codejock......

1. our current version does not compile
2. the trial version does not link
As long as I cannot resolve 1. or 2. any issues relating to whether or not controls function properly are moot.
Until then, thanks for trying to help, maybe I will be able to take advantage of your advice later.

When stopped in the debugger (Visual C++ 2005, native Win32/MFC code), you can mouse over variables and the debugger shows a nice tooltip. For some classes it also shows the member variables and values in that tooltip. For our MFC CObject-derived classes, all we get is the class name; it refuses to show the variables. We can use the + button to expand it and see the variables, but it would be nice to get them right in the tooltip.
Any idea what controls this?
===
For example:
class BaseClass
{
protected:
double i;
double j;
double k;
public:
BaseClass() { i = j = k = 0.57722; }
virtual ~BaseClass() {}
};
class MyClass : public BaseClass
{
protected:
double x;
double y;
double z;
public:
MyClass() { x = y = z = 3.14159; }
virtual ~MyClass() {}
};
void SomeFunction()
{
MyClass someVar;
int x = 0;
}
For the above example, when you're stopped in the debugger and you mouse-over someVar, you can see the below in the tool-tip.
someVar = {x=3.1415899999999999 y=3.1415899999999999 z=3.1415899999999999 }
Now, if you modify the code slightly by deriving from CObject, it seems to break this. If you change it to the below:
class MyClass : public CObject
{
protected:
double x;
double y;
double z;
public:
MyClass() { x = y = z = 3.14159; }
virtual ~MyClass() {}
};
void SomeFunction()
{
MyClass someVar;
int x = 0;
}
Now when you stop in the debugger and mouse-over someVar, you instead see the below.
someVar = {MyClass}
So for some reason, when deriving from CObject, we've now lost the mouse-over tooltip info!
Does anyone know what's going on? How can we get that back?

I found a solution to this. I discovered the name of the feature described is the DataTip. Once I had this a modified google search yielded the below article.
http://www.zanshu.com/ebook/149_debugging_applications/html/ch05d.htm
The summary is that there's a config file in the VC++ install directory which controls the auto-expansion in the DataTip.
For Visual C++ 2005, the file is at the below path.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Packages\Debugger\autoexp.dat
The comments in the file explain how to add your own types. For the above example, I added the below line and it then worked.
MyClass =x=<x> y=<y> z=<z>
So its a matter of customizing this file with your types and then keeping track of the customizations for new machines or re-installs of VS.
I'm still not sure why it does it automatically when you don't derive from CObject but fails when you derive from CObject. One guess is that the base class adds in too many variables? The problem with that guess is that in my example I included a base class with variables (i,j,k) and those didn't show up in the tip, so I don't understand why the base class matters.
