Look at the documentation for SetHandleInformation and DuplicateHandle.

Hi,
I know how it is passed. I want to know how to retrieve and use them in child process. An example will help

A simple MSDN search yielded this[^].

I had seen this link. I was wondering how to use it for other type of handles (like mutex, sempahore etc, though they can be retrieved through api like OpenMutex) in child process.
|
|
|
|
|
This issue is specifically about File Handles as far as I know; the other types do not fall into the same category.

You described how to make the handle available in the child process, but you still need to tell the child the numerical value of the HANDLE. A common way of doing this is to pass the value as a command line parameter.

Hi Mike,
This is what I was looking for. Handles are copied in the process table of the child process if the inherit flag is set to true but how would the child process know which handle is pointing to which kernel object and which to use.
This link [^] explains the concept:
"To use a handle, the child process must retrieve the handle value and "know" the object to which it refers. Usually, the parent process communicates this information to the child process through its command line, environment block, or some form of interprocess communication."
I was looking for an sample code showing the above step(highlighted in bold).

When you create an object (like a mutex) you can specify a "name".
(see CreateMutex[^]).
In the child process you can retrieve another handle to that same object with OpenMutex[^], or whatever similar and coherent with the type of object) by giving it that name (that is supposed to be unique at least between all your entangled processes).
Note that the returned value may be different, due to the fact the the handle value is an "index of a table of indexes" that is different in the various processes.
The documentation talks improperly of inheritance of handles. What are inherited are the objects the handle refers to.

I think I'm front with a weird problem at combo box control :
If drop down list of combo box is down , and I delete all strings from combo box and call ShowDropDown(FALSE); I have assert error on strcore at 519 line .
In fact , it's mistake to call ShowDropDown(FALSE); when combo box is empty ?

Don't know what might cause that error but try "undropping" the list and then delete the strings? Or there's a particular reason why you try to delete first and then remove the list?

Yes , you are right , I thing that's the way to solve this problem ... weird behaviour . Thank you !

Interesting article, thanks for the link. 
After reading it, I would say you can apply the same principle to STL by using the registry entry “std\:\:.*=nostepinto” instead of “ATL\:\:.*=nostepinto”. I haven't tried though. In any case, before trying this I'd create a restore point or whatever else you usually do to undo an unlucky change. It is an undocumented feature after all, and even if it weren't, manually editing the registry isn't for the weak of heart.

Hi all,
i have and unicode file, i wanna read this file by character wise,means read only one character at a time.
please tell me how can i do this.
thanks in advace.

What kind of Unicode text file are you dealing with (e.g. UTF-8, etc..)?
What do you mean with 'character' (e.g. 'Unicode character' or 'single byte'?)?
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.

Using Unicode encoding type file and one character means single byte.

If you want to read a byte at time then use, as already suggested, fgetc[^].

Hope you do know that unicode is two bytes and ascii is one byte...

UNICODE is actually a set of code-points whose cardinality requires 21 bits.
When encoded in sequence of 1 bye is called UTF-8 and when encoded as sequence of two bytes is called UTF-16.
In UTF-8 coding may vary from 1 to 4 bytes (and remains identical for code-points between 0 and 127, aka ASCII)
In UTF-16 coding may be 2 or 4 bytes (and is TWO for the most of Latin, Cyrillic and Greek characters, as many simplified Chinese).
UNICODE==2bytes is a misconception that originated at the time Windows included Unicode APIS using 16bits since -at that time- Unicode specs where not so wide.
Actually, reading 2bytes does not necessarily means "read a character".
