Yes so I did.
Found out the thing causing the problem. You see I inherited this app from an colleague from work he had slight different control then my own (it's work internal control we use). When overwritten, all worked OK.
The thing causing the problem is when called OnIdle message notifies some wnd's of an idle time, and some of those aren't wnd at all!

I work with DevC++ and i want to make a project with several c++ files.
For example i have two c++ files with two main(). Is it possible? How can i build (run) this? - it takes me an error message.
(
I have seen a project with two main but it is created in visual c++ not in devc++
and he build very well and every .cpp file generate it's .exe file (program for client server)
When i try to create the same project in Dev C++ i can't build!!!
What can i do?
)
Thank you!

A executable with two main methods ? It doesn't make a lot of sense to me: when it is executed, which function should be called ?

You application must have just one entry point. What is the purpose of two main() functions?

You can only have one main() function.
If you want 2 operation modes, you can control it via a start parameter one the commando line which got operated in your one and only main() function. 
Press F1 for help or google it.

You cannot have two main functions (main function is the entry point). You can, however, run an additional thread.

I can read the prototypes for windows.h in the include folder (I have installed dev c++) but i want a list of explained functions. I don't know for what to use each of them.
Thank you!

Well, usually you don't need to read the explanations of all Win32 API functions in order to be a developer. Anyway (you know) you may find help for each and every function online, for instance searching for EncodePointer (the first function I found in winbase.h) gives [^]

Look on MSDN - the best way is to Google for function-name site:msdn.microsoft.com. For example - what does CreateFile do? Just Google for CreateFile site:msdn.microsoft.com.
Anyway - as I said to you yesterday[^], you're going about this backwards. Start with the MSDN documentation (which tells you all about the function definitions) and then find the function prototype in the header files (although why even do that except when compiling code?!)

I am trying to create a dll. During compilation,i get the folowing linking error.
"error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol"
How can i resolve it?
Thanks,
|
|
|
|
|
Giving more information would help us a lot. What is this symbol ? A variable, a function ? How is it declared ? ...
Please, provide as much useful information as possible.
|
|
|
|
|
It is a function.I declared that function in def file.
|
|
|
|
|
Are you scared to provide useful information or what ? 
Where is this function coming from, how is it defined, .... ?
|
|
|
|
|
Actually the complete error message should be more informative. For instance, it should report what symbol is not resolved. Hence, please have a better look at the error message (and report here if you're still in troubles).

This is the complete error message:
COM.def : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol GetSignalValue()
Release/COM.lib : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
LINK : fatal error LNK1141: failure during build of exports file
|
|
|
|

Is GetSignalValue one of the functions of your library (I suppose it is, however maybe you're using also external libraries)? How is it declared and defined? Please show us the relevant code.

If you're using a C++ compiler (and probably you areusing it) then you should use the extern "C" construct to avoid C++ symbol mangling.
i.e.
extern "C"
{
int FAR PASCAL GetSignalValue(int m_lCurValue);
}and
extern "C"
{
int FAR PASCAL GetSignalValue(int m_lCurValue)
{
}
}

Thanks to all. I resolved that error. I declared the function in def as
GetSignalValue().It should be GetSignalValue.

Declare that as extern "C" - otherwise, the object file will export the C++ mangled name, not the unmangled name your DEF file expects to see.

In COM_1.cpp file,Im having the definition for GetSignalValue() function as follows:

int FAR PASCAL GetSignalValue(int m_lCurValue)
{
long lReturnValue = m_lCurValue;

}
In .def file I declared the function as follows:

Hi!
By resolving the external symbol? Seriously, give a bit more detail, "Unresolved external symbol" is like you saying "the linker tells me something's missing". It usually means that you forgot to link to some library or forgot to define a variable you declared and used somewhere...

These kinds of questions should be the easiest to answer, you just guess some answer, post it and consider the transaction done.
