My MFC application consists of one main dialog, and it has an MCIWnd control created at the bottom for simple media playing functionality.
I currently use MCIWndCreate in the main window's OnInitDialog function, creating it as a child window. Most of the media it plays is streamed from the internet. This creates a problem when the user seeks in the MCIWnd, and it has to access the internet for more data. The MCIWnd freezes the whole app until it is able to resume playing (once it finished downloading more data). Usually it only takes a few seconds; however, it tends to be bothersome still.
I was wondering if there was a way to create the MCIWnd as a child of the main window, but have all of its functionality run in a seperate thread, so that the main thread can continue uninterupted while MCIWnd downloads its data.
Thanks for reading the lengthy post and providing any help.

Did you try with WS_POPUP instead WH_CHILD on the MCI_OPEN command?

HOOKPROC hkprcMsgProc=NULL; //the pointer of MsgProc()
static HINSTANCE hinstDLL=NULL; //the handle of dll!
static HHOOK hhookMsg=NULL; //the handle of hook!
DWORD tID=3464; //a thread id
hinstDLL = LoadLibrary((LPCTSTR) "QQDetours.dll");
hkprcMsgProc = (HOOKPROC)GetProcAddress(hinstDLL, "MsgProc");
hhookMsg = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_GETMESSAGE,hkprcMsgProc,hinstDLL,tID);
The tID is a thread id,but SetWindowsHookEx is not succeed.
Why?

If your trying to install a global hook, you should pass the thread id as 0.
If you are trying to set a Local thread hook, then you need to set the HINSTANCE as 0.

Hi there,
I am trying to start a service already installed from a C++ code ( the c++ could be normal application, a win32 application, or even a dll application)
is that possible ( to start a specific service via it's name )
if so, how can I do it ?
Thanks in advance

SC_HANDLE hScm = OpenSCManager(NULL, SERVICES_ACTIVE_DATABASE, SC_MANAGER_ALL_ACCESS);
SC_HANDLE hService = OpenService(hScm, sServiceName, SERVICE_ALL_ACCESS);
StartService(hService, 0, NULL))

thanks a lot
should I include a special library ?

I was busy creating a Dll for some basic game engine (just for myself)
For the input, I would like to have some general function pointers inside my dll which I want to be able to reference to other functions from code based upon my exe file.
just like this:
<br />
on_a = function_to_do_on_A;<br />
on_esc = function_to_do_on_Esc;<br />
where on_a comes from the dll and the function_to_do_on_A comes from the application.
this is my code:
<br />
Dll:<br />
.h<br />
#define ENGINE_EXPORTS<br />
#ifdef ENGINE_EXPORTS<br />
#define ENGINE_API __declspec(dllexport)<br />
#else<br />
#define ENGINE_API __declspec(dllimport)<br />
#endif<br />
<br />
.cpp<br />
namespace Engine<br />
{<br />
namespace Input<br />
{<br />
ENGINE_API void (*on_a)(void);<br />
ENGINE_API void (*on_b)(void);<br />
ENGINE_API void (*on_c)(void);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
<br />
Exe:<br />
.cpp<br />
void FuncA(void)<br />
{<br />
MessageBox(NULL, L"FuncA called!", L"NOTIFICATION!", MB_OK);<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
Engine::Input::on_a = &FuncA;<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />
<br />
errors<br />
on_a is not a member of Engine::Input<br />
on_a undeclared identifier<br />
<br />
<br />
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-<br />
Exe:<br />
.cpp<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
{<br />
using namespace Engine::Input;<br />
on_a = &FuncA;<br />
}<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />
<br />
errors<br />
on_a undeclared identifier<br />
<br />
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-<br />
<br />
.h<br />
namespace Engine<br />
{<br />
namespace Input<br />
{<br />
extern ENGINE_API void(*on_a)(void);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "void (__cdecl* Engine::Input::on_a)(void)" (?on_a@Input@Engine@@3P6AXXZA)<br />
What am I doing wrong? Why is my function pointer not being exported? And how to fix this problem?
Many thanks in advance.
ps. I am using VS2008

Are you linking the exe to the import library (.lib) created by the DLL build?

yes as follows..
<br />
#include "..\Engine\Engine.h"<br />
#if defined(DEBUG) | defined(_DEBUG)<br />
#define USE_DEBUG_ENGINE<br />
#endif<br />
<br />
#ifdef USE_DEBUG_ENGINE<br />
#pragma comment(lib, "..\\Debug\\Engine.lib")<br />
#else<br />
#pragma comment(lib, "..\\Release\\Engine.lib")<br />
#endif<br />
normal functions (and classes) declared within the namespace are working properly
for instance:
<br />
int Height = Engine::GetHeight();<br />
returns the proper value

The first version of your EXE code works for me as long as
that last header file code is included in the EXE cpp file.
Exe:
.cpp
namespace Engine
{
namespace Input
{
__declspec(dllimport) void (*on_a)(void);
}
}
void FuncA(void)
{
MessageBox(NULL, L"FuncA called!", L"NOTIFICATION!", MB_OK);
return;
}
int main()
{
Engine::Input::on_a = &FuncA;
return 0;
}

The namespace Engine and it's 'member'- namespace Input are within the Dll file..
This means that the declaration is within the Dll file:
ENGINE_API void (*on_a)(void);
if I put the following code above the main function of mine:
namespace Engine
{
namespace Input
{
__declspec(dllimport) void (*on_a)(void);
}}
I get the following warning:
warning C4273: 'Engine::Input::on_a' : inconsistent dll linkage
followed up with an error:
error C3861: 'on_a': identifier not found

DllFile.h :
#ifdef ENGINE_EXPORTS
#define ENGINE_API __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define ENGINE_API __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
namespace Engine
{
namespace Input
{
ENGINE_API void (*on_a)(void);
ENGINE_API void (*on_b)(void);
ENGINE_API void (*on_c)(void);
}
}
DllFile.cpp :
#define ENGINE_EXPORTS
#include "DllFile.h"
ExeFile.cpp :
#include "DllFile.h"
int main()
{
Engine::Input::on_a = &FuncA;
return 0;
}

thanks, that already helped a lot..
(the DllCpp was the problem, #define over there instead above the header..)
Since multiple header files all include this one (Engine.h),
I get several (7) Errors
Error LNK2005: "void (__cdecl* Engine::Input::on_a)(void)" (?on_a@Input@Engine@@3P6AXXZA) already defined in Engine.obj LuaScriptor.obj
But I think I can get around that problem, or just by simply putting everything inside a single header and source file.
Thanks to all for the support and the quick help
EDIT:
Fixed all (Copy everything to Engine.cpp and Engine.h), thanks

dear sir ,
i am using visual studio 2008 , and i am running the program ( that help me use the matlab in c++) but every time i try to run it appear to me this
Unhandled exception at 0x0001aa3a in teste.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0001aa3a.
and the file gs_support.c open and point on the part
#if defined (_WIN64)
cookie = systime.ft_scalar;
#else /* defined (_WIN64) */
cookie = systime.ft_struct.dwLowDateTime;
cookie ^= systime.ft_struct.dwHighDateTime;
#endif /* defined (_WIN64) */
can anyone help me , i download the program that read the function for the matlab from the codeproject from this link

Greetings Programmers:
I would greatly appreciate your advice.
A few years ago, I wrote a program to automate a radio station. The program has worked well, but all the values are "hard-coded" -
every time the station changed their schedule, I had to re-code, re-compile and re-test. I am trying to develop an engine that will
read the values from a text file, giving the station personnel the ability to program the station themselves.
I am using CStdioFile to read the file. 99 times out of 100, it works perfectly - but randomly throws an exception. (The file exists,
and I don't know why it throws an exception; perhaps lack of a handle?) This is the code I use to read the file:
<CStdioFile File;
try
{
CStdioFile File(AutomationFile,CStdioFile::modeRead);
File.Seek(FilePosition,0);
int NumberOfCharactors=File.ReadString(StringRead); //StringRead is a CString
File.Close();
}
catch (CException *e)
{
TryAgain();
e->Delete();
}>
In TryAgain() I start the process over again to read the file. There is no use in creating an error message, as no one is at the station to see
it or do anything about it.
My questions:
1) Would you use another way to open and read the file?
2) How would you deal with the rare exception?
Thanks in advance for any opinions.
Gary

From CException::ReportError() you can know why its failed. [if you can reproduce by running it 100 times  ]
Member 3301229 wrote: 1) Would you use another way to open and read the file?
You can also use C++ file streams.
Member 3301229 wrote: 2) How would you deal with the rare exception?
If the exception is so rare, it would be difficult to find and fix it. Being in maintenance project for more that one and half years, the strategy i used to use is to add extra traces and logs. So that you can catch the exception next time.
Regards,
Jijo.
