SetWindowLong throwing ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED

Anonymous6-Oct-05 21:14

Hi everybody, this is the first time Im posting on these boards. I've gotten allot of good information here so I thought Id ask here first.

Im currently hooking into the SHELLDLL_Defview thread of the Program Manager. The hook is of type WH_CALLWNDPROC. Once my callback function kicks in, I use it to call SetWindowLong to replace the Windows process. Everything is fine up till this point. The problem I have is when I try to unhook. Before I extract the hook, I make another call to SetWindowLong to replace the origional Window process. Ive checked the values of my parameters before the call and they are good. I end up getting a ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. Now, I know that the call in the CallWndProc procedure works fine. Why is it only when I go to put the stuff back that I get the error?

What you can do is set the text of your static control whenever something changes in the EditBox. Here how to do that:

1) Go to class wizzard and add a handler function for the 'change text' message (I don't remember which message exactly.
2) In this handler function Retrieve the text of your EditBox (GetWindowText) and calculate his length (with strlen).
3) Format this value in a new string (with sprintf) and set the text of the static control (SetWindowText)

Creating a VxD

1. How can I create a Vxd(virtual device driver)?

2. Can you tell the steps in easy ways?

3. I heard that for creating a Vxd we must create certain
files with extension .sys.

4. Can i create a Vxd by simply specifying the EXE-Type
option of the linker as VxD?

5. Is the coding differs from normal VC++ coding?

Virtual device drivers only work in Windows 95, 98, and ME. You will need a copy of the Driver Development Kit (DDK) for Windows 95/98/ME, which may be difficult to find.

Use STL::Map or Vector to store information if you required it at runtime only.. other wise you want to save it as file.. then XML format is best format for storing tree like information

Visual Dev C++ Class Wizard Add Variable Script Error

6-Oct-05 18:07

In VC 6, using the Class View to add functions and variables was quick and painless.

After moving the project to 2003 .net I mostly get
"An error has occured in the script on this page.
...
Error: 'arr_ControlTpyes' is null and not an object.
Code: 0

I have this after a clean install from the MSDN disks on multiple systems.

Has anybody run into this, how do I fix it?

Meanwhile, I use the manual method, but it's a step backwards...

InvalidateRect and GDI

I have a short question, and if the answer is no, then I have a much longer question I'll reply to this message with.

Can I only invalidate one rectangle specified by a couple CRect structures at a time? For instance, if a thread in a single timeslice had to run this code:

CWnd * pParent = ::AfxGetMainWnd();<br />
pParent->InvalidateRect(rect1, true);<br />
pParent->InvalidateRect(rect2, true);

where: rect1 and rect2 are pointers to valid CRect structures

I read in the help documentation, that that rectange is added to some list of regions to be updated so I think the answer is no but I can't find any information to definitively say yes or no, so hopefully some kind soul will ease my quarreling thoughts.

See, I have code like this:

if (first test statement) {<br />
(update data)<br />
(invalidate one rectangle)<br />
}<br />
<br />
if (second test statement) {<br />
(update other data)<br />
(invalidate another rectangle)<br />
}

and both sections work independantly as far as what it tests for. The first if statement is run several times more than the second, but I let my program run and something I didn't expect to happens. What happens is that the screen is updated whenever the second statement is run (less often), but both the first and second rectangle are refreshed (with erases). I tried switching the order of the if statements but it still refreshes at the frequency of the lesser used if statement rectangle invalidation. I don't know what to do about it, right now at least.

I'm not sure I understood your problem, but keep in mind that invalidating just means that it will be updated in then next paint cycle. If you want to make sure the window gets updated after each 'invalidate' you should also call UpdateWindow right after calling InvalidateRect

I tried that by doing something like this:

bool bUpdateWindow = false;<br />
CWnd * pParent = ::AfxGetMainWnd();<br />
<br />
if (first test) {<br />
(change data)<br />
pParent->InvalidateRect(pRect1, true);<br />
bUpdateWindow = true;<br />
}<br />
<br />
if (second test) {<br />
(change other data)<br />
pParent->InvalidateRect(pRect2, true);<br />
bUpdateWindow = true;<br />
}<br />
<br />
if (bUpdateWindow) { pParent->UpdateWindow(); }

But the behavior isn't changed from before.

Are you sure it's AfxGetMainWnd() the window you need to invalidate? What kind of window is the main one? Is it a dialog, MDI/SDI frame, or something else?

hmm, well I'm invalidating and updating the window in a thread... you raise an interesting question. The main window, in the file mainfrm.cpp, is CMainFrame, derived from CFrameWnd. Am I calling it's routines instead of the child and that's what's not right?

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
