Cédric gave you the solution: after mouse action, store the (new) rectangle coordinates into an 'array of rectangle coordinates' (as suggested you may better use a STL container as the std::vector) and call in sequence InvalidateRect, UpdateWindow (to make re-paint happen), Inside the OnPaint message handler draw all the rectangles of the array.
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

This is going on my arrogant assumptions. You may have a superb reason why I'm completely wrong.

Hi,
I am inserting a OLE object yellow arrow to the left of some text
It seem like whenever I insert the object it effects the starting pos of the text
if (curr_start_cur == 0)
{
curr_start_cur = start;
curr_end_cur = end;
SetSel(curr_start_cur,((curr_start_cur+pos)-5));
oleptr->InsertObject(&reobject);
}
SetSel(Begin,Begin+pos+1);
setfontsize(11);
setbold();
SetColour(RGB(255,0,0));
setfontsize(11);
}
The following is my text
======> _ 000000 90EC D00C 0000 C STM R14,R12,12(R13) line 1
_ 000000 18CF LR R12,R15 line 2
The "======>" represent the OLE arrow object
from line 2 and downward all "_' are in red the rest of the text remains the normal color
however at line 1 the "_" is in red and also the following text is in read "000000 90EC"
was wondering if the insert object effects where the stating character of the SetSel starts

Hi all :
I wrote a simple dialog based program to control a specific machine. And there is a button on the program.
When I pressed the button, some functions (from the API of the machine) would be called to do something.
Because the document said that the function is asynchronous, it used PostThreadMessage() to send some API-defined messages.
And the function might be time out. So I used CreateThread() and SetTimer() to check the success message is received or not within the thread.
But I met a strange problem.
If I ran it with debug mode and set the breakpoint on function A (function A wasn't still be called), it runs normally.
If I ran it with debug mode and didn't set the breakpoint on function A or ran it with release mode, the function A would timeout.
But if I ran the sample program (vendor provide, but only binary file, don't have source code), it runs normally...
I checked the debug mode and release mode settings of the project.
The included folders, linked folders, library dependencies...etc are the same.
So I don't know how to solve this question...
Does anyone can give a hint or pointed what's wrong with the code ?
Below is my code :
WaitPostThreadMessage(), MyFunc1() are global functions
SUCCESS_MSG, ERROR_MSG are two messages sent by the machine
TIMEOUT_MSG is the message which I defined to represent the timeout.
The parameter dwThreadId would be sent to the machine to indicate which thread is the post target of the machine
When a user click the button. MachineProc::ClickBtn() will be called.
And I put the workflow code in CreatedThread().
The problem which I mentioned above occured at calling APIFuncB()
UINT_PTR uTimer;
int timerCount;
int timerThreshold;
bool bTimeOut;
void CALLBACK TimerFunc(HWND hwnd, UINT message, UINT idTimer, DWORD dwTime) {
timerCount++;
if(timerCount >= timerThreshold) {
bTimeOut = true;
}
}
int WaitPostThreadMessage() {
MSG msg;
while(!bTimeOut) {
if(PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE) == TRUE) {
switch(msg.message) {
case SUCCESS_MSG:
if(KillTimer(NULL, uTimer) == 0) {
}
return SUCCESS_MSG;
case ERROR_MSG:
if(KillTimer(NULL, uTimer) == 0) {
}
return ERROR_MSG;
default:
break;
};
TranslateMessage(&msg);
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
if(bTimeOut) {
if(KillTimer(NULL, uTimer) == 0) {
}
break;
}
}
return TIMEOUT_MSG;
}
DWORD WINAPI CreatedThread(LPVOID) {
MSG msg;
PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, WM_USER, WM_USER, PM_NOREMOVE);
int iResult;
DWORD dwThreadId = GetCurrentThreadId();
iResult = APIFuncA(argu1, dwThreadId);
iResult = MyFunc1();
}
int MyFunc1() {
int iResult;
bTimeOut = false;
timerCount = 0;
timerThreshold = 2;
APIFuncB();
uTimer = SetTimer(NULL, WM_APP_TIMER, 1000, (TIMERPROC)TimerFunc);
iResult = WaitPostThreadMessage();
if(iResult != SUCCESS_MSG) {
}
}
void MachineProc::ClickBtn() {
HANDLE hThread;
DWORD nThreadID;
hThread = CreateThread(0, 0, CreatedThread, 0, 0, &nThreadID);
}

Thanks a lot.

It could be a timing problem, when you place a breakpoint and break into the debugger when it is hit, you change the timings of the program which might be just enough to make it succeed. (I'm talking from experience, synchronization issues are tricky)

Thanks for the reply.
But I tried to change the time threshold. (I changed the threshold from 2 to 60)
The result is the same. Timeout still be happened.
So I think that the main problem is not about timing.
According to the experiment, it looks like there is another problem...

That is not what i meant...but if you are on to something then forget it

Get a stopwatch and time how long it takes for APIFuncA() to run. From your symptoms it looks like the thread's exiting before APIFuncA() has run to completion.
I'd try simplifying your code - all that mucking about with Windows messages and threads is enough to give anyone a headache. How do you know that APIFuncA() has completed? There must be some indication somewhere.
Cheers,
Ash

Thanks for the reply.
The problem which I occurred is about APIFuncB(), not APIFuncA()
Accroding to the document, APIFuncA() returns an int value.
And does't need any waiting mechanism on APIFuncA().
But about APIFuncB(), the document only mentioned two points.
1 : APIFuncB() is asynchronous. When I call APIFuncB(), I must wait for PostThreadMessage of API.
And the message which API sent is SUCCESS_MSG and ERROR_MSG .
When I received the SUCCESS_MSG, I can call the subsequent API functions to do next steps.
2 : The timeout value of APIFuncB() is 1 second, so it suggest the timeout value in my program is 2 seconds.
And the document doesn't describe how to implement the waiting mechanism. I must implement by myself.
That's why I use SetTimer()、WaitPostThreadMessage()、TimerFunc() to implement the waiting mechanism.
Based on my code which posted in this article thread, I think that when I call APIFuncB(),
the created thread is still running, not ended.
Is my thought wrong ?

Hi
I'm creating a 3D app which the main purpose for it is to be a game engine renderer. The file format that I will use for geometry is the RAW Triangle, since it is very simple to understand. I've created a function able to read the entire 3d file and parse it to a IDirect3DVertexBuffer9. Things are going fine here, but the problem is when it becomes rendered. I'm not getting the full object rendered, it seems that file is corrupted.

Without seeing the code it is hard to know, but when you issue the call from your VertexBuffer are you setting the size and stride values correctly?

I have never looked at the RAW output from Blender, and without compiling this only one thing "jumps" out at me....
g_device->DrawPrimitive(D3DPT_TRIANGLESTRIP, 0, count);
Are you sure that Blender is outputting a Triangle Strip or a list of triangles?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Triangle_Strip_Small.png[^]
In this example a Triangle strip would be vertexes A, B, C, D, E, F.
But a list of triangles would be:
A,B,C, C,B,D, E,C,D, F,E,D
You can see how incorrectly sending the right destination from one to the other could render with bizarre results....

Blender is outputting a strange kind of list of triangles. For instance, a circle, it seems that Blender is outputting a triangle fan.

Then you will need to define this as a triangle fan for display....

I think that I've found the solution for my problem here.

The RAW Triangle Format is parsed by reading lines, not individual values. That was what I didn't know.

congrats on finding it! I never worked with raw, we use other model formats.

By the way, which formats do you use?

3dStudio, OpenFlight... Mostly
basically everything supported by open scene graph.

Hey, i just wanted to ask if theres a way i can read the data of a file so i can paste it to another file?
Like i read the data of cmd.exe and paste it to whatever.exe?

Please be clear what you are asking.

cmd.exe is not a file to be read from, it's an executable.

Executables are files though
