Hi,
I am sure that i am clicking inside the checkbox of a particular tree item. But still sometimes the handle to the item is coming as null.
This is what i am doing...
::GetCursorPos(&point);
::ScreenToClient(m_tvItems.m_hWnd, &point);
hItem = m_tvItems.HitTest(point,&uFlags);
But why NULL??
What are the possibilities?
Thanks

Hi,
In WinDbg we can attach a process and set the breakpoint as "bp module!function",
how we set a similar breakpoint in Visual studio 6? The same format doesnt work in Edit->Breakpoints dialog box. Does anyone know about this?
Thanks!

Hi all,
I'm new to multithreading and I'm using the code provided by "Vijay Mathew Pandyalakal" (http://www.codeproject.com/threads/SynchronizedThreadNoMfc.asp) to create my own thread class. What I need to do is this. I have a thread class and I want it to access a structure which is defined in main area, which is used by the main program as well.
int main()
{
MyStructure *myStructure = new MyStructure;
myStructure->myValue = 2; //myValue is an integer member in MyStructure
MyThread * myThread = new MyThread(myStructure);// MyThread has an integer
// pointer
try
{
myThread->start();
// here I hope to add my code that will change myValue in
// myStructure. This should be detected by myThread via myThreadValue
// since both myValue in myStructrue and myThreadval in myThread refer to
// the same memory area (I hope  ).
.
. refer
}
However this doesn't work. Is there a correct way to do this?
Can Vijay or some one else help me on this?
Thanks in advance ,
stkl

I didn't read the article you provided but I suppose its just describe a class to encapsulate the thread. Now concerning your problem: this is really simple, you just need to change the value and that's it . As you said, both pointers point to the same memory adress, so if you make change in your main thread, the modifications will be accessible in the other thread.
BUT, you will have to protect the data to avoid that both threads try to access it at the same time. Thus, you might look at this link[^] for CRITICAL_SECTION objects (I suppose you don't use MFC from the name of the article you gave). And look at the functions InitializeCriticalSection then EnterCriticalSection and LeaveCriticalSections to try to access your variable (EnterCriticalSection will return only when no other thread as entered the same CRITICAL_SECTION object) and finally DeleteCriticalSection to release the object.

Consider using a synchronized smart pointer.
See following link:
http://code.axter.com/sync_ptr.h
The above synchronized smart pointer will automatically lock and unlock access to your data.

Hi Axter,
Thanks a lot for your reply. I used a techinique that I found from http://www.relisoft.com/resource/resource.html and It works very well. The technique is to create an object that has a reference to a critical section object and that enters to critical section in the constructor and leaves in the destructor. Since destructor is automatically called at the end of the scope it makes sure that the memory is released.
Thanks and Regards,
stkl

Hi Cedric,
Thanks for your quick response . I think this should solve the problem. However still I couldn't try this out. I tried to access a pointer variable from two threads and it worked fine even without using critical sections. However when I tried to use a variable in a structure, it didn’t work. The structure and variable within it both are pointers. I tried to access a member variable of a class as well. Both class and the member variable are defined in the heap. This didn’t work either. I think the reason may be access problems you mentioned. Any way I'll try this out and let you know. Thanks again

But if the Process is opened with any other access I am able to get the process id by using the above mentioned methods . I request you to help me in this regard

Try WM_COPYDATA message. here is an example :-

Thanks.
Why do we have to use SendMessage() instead of PostMessage() if WM_COPYDATA event is to be posted to another windows.

Actually there is basic difference between PostMessage and SendMessage.. When you Post message using PostMessage... it just post the message in message queue and return immediately... but in case SendMessage i doesn't return till the target program acknowledge it properly... Now i believe you get the point why WM_COPYDATA using SendMessage instead of PostMessage

Hi...
I am currently working on embedded vc++ and I have created a mfc single document exe application .Now in the resource I add a dialog box and also in the menu I add a new menu button.On pressing it I want the dialog box.For that I have added a command handler to the toll bar.Now what should I write in the command handler for the dialog box to be executed .
|
|
|
|
|
Basically I completed the steps given in this site:
http://www.justppc.com/evc2.shtml</
|
|
|
|
|
CMyDialog dlg;
dlg.DoModal();
or
CMyDialog *dlg = new CMyDialog();
dlg->Create(ID_DILOG);
DLG->ShowWindow(;)
|
|
|
|
|
It gives the Error that CAboutDialog class doesnot exist.I had added the dialog box and its name was CAboutDialog
|
|
|
|
|
I managed to remove the error however on running the application I get this error on clicking the run menu
TryCalc2:File winocc.cpp Line 238
On ignoring the error I get my calculator and it runs properl.What is this error????

I am attempting to get my program to run another program. I looked on the FAQ and it said that one of the best ways to do this was using the WinExec command. I am trying to use this like so:
WinExec ("C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\WINWORD.EXE", SW_SHOWNORMAL);
I believe this is the correct format, but my compiler says that WinExec is an undeclared indentifier. I'm assuming this means that I need the correct header file. If this is the case, where can I get this header file from?

Just a note: You'll need to escape the backslash. The '\' character in a string signifies a special character. You need to use:
WinExec("C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\OFFICE11\\WINWORD.EXE", SW_SHOWNORMAL);

hello....not sure why the #pragma disable isn't working....
the app has 14 warning of C4503, I've checked the source file that been complant about, here is the first 4 line of abscommbuffer.h
#if !defined( __ABS_COMMBUFFER_H__ )
#define __ABS_COMMBUFFER_H__
#pragma warning( disable : 4786 )
#pragma warning( disable : 4503 )
it's other's app, I am not sure what exactly is this line doing:

and the warning message:

C++ exception handling was used but /EHsc was not selected.
When the /EHsc option has not been enabled, an object with automatic storage in the frame, between the function doing the throw and the function catching the throw, will not be destroyed. However, an object with automatic storage created in a try or catch block will be destroyed.
|
|
|
|
|
but after I enabled the /EHsc option in project setting, I still get 14 same warnings.......not sure why is that.
Thank you for your time
