I agree wholeheartedly with Hans. The site
http://www.jrsoftware.org
has an excellent and free program called Inno Setup.
|
|
|
|
|
is that free for home users or is it free for commercial users as well?
|
|
|
|
|
I believe it's free for everyone, although you can donate if you want.
[update] From the Inno Setup site:
Is it really free of charge, even for commercial use?
Yes, it may be used completely free of charge, even when deploying commercial applications. However if you wish to show your appreciation and support its development you can make a donation. [/update]

I definitely have to check it out then!
|
|
|
|
|
I used inno setup for a solid 14 months, and I've churned out great installers that are easy to create and yet highly capable. I strongly recommend that you check it out!

I use InstallShield... and its easy to use, but for that price... I'd expect A LOT more (since its freakin' expensive!)...

Wow!  I don't think I've ever heard anyone say that before.

Really? it is... not much to it... but I hate certain things about it... don't know if they've fixed it since, but in my version, all file links were static!!! why!?!?! so you end up having to put the files in the same EXACT directory structure as they were originally in! very annoying!

...although i should clarify... it wasn't easy off the back, there was a learning curve, but once you figure it out, its pretty easy to work with and remember

I had to learn it... its what they were using at work  ...but at this point, i can change what i don't like 
...its what i've earned for lack of a life...

Hi all,
CFormView::OnClose() ( WM_CLOSE ) event is not coming.
Can u tell me the reason?
|
|
|
|
|
CFormView::OnClose() is not called because views do not have a close button. The close button belongs to the frame window, and OnClose() is a message handler for it.
You could call something in the view from your frame window OnClose(), or add a message handler in the view for WM_DESTROY (OnDestroy()).

yes thank you.
I have to call OnClose() of View's frame.

Never use TerminateThread, this is a very bad approach. I suggest you read this article[^] from which you will learn a lot for threads. This is a long article but it's definitively worth reading it.

Thanx Cedric
Before using terminatethread, I used same logic which given into link but at that time I got run time exception on delete Cwin thread..
is there having another way to remove memory leak....
Can vld find out memory leak which occures due to thread termination.
Thank You For your reply...
|

First, do not use TerminateThread() to forcely terminate thread. The best way is let the thread terminate itself. If you want to terminate thread while thread is running, set a flag to notify the thread and let it self-terminate. Read the book "Multithreading Applications in Win32", a good book you need to read before you use multithread.
Second, you need to check your code to see where you dynamic created variable but not delete it upon thread exit. You need to check this yourself, no other people can help you.

|
|
Thanx for your reply... I will read that book.
And in my thread I just used local Variable, mydoc variable and my view variables...
|
|
|
|
|
even if you use local variables you'll end up with memory leaks if the thread is not properly shutdown... good luck!
