Hello,
I'm developing a program that does some intensive computation(arithmetic coding) on a block of data, say 2MB in size. It tooks longer time to finish. If I implement the same computation using 2 threads and split the input into two equal halves(1MB), one for each thread, does the computation time decrease? please help me.
Is there any way to speed up the computation using threads?
I have only one processor, P4 1.7 GHz non HT. I'm using windows 2000.
The computation is directly proportional to the size of data(i.e if it took 5 seconds for 3MB input, then it will take 10 seconds for 6MB input data).
regards
Ramesh

No, on a single-processor system, the context switching overhead will most likely hurt your performance, not improve it. However, being able to split the data and parallelize the process as an option is a nice feature for those who do have multi-processor systems.

On a single processor it would, if anything, be a little slower because the OS has to switch between threads (though not noticably). If the intensive computation is affecting things like clicking a button in the app, and general app response time then it would be worth sticking the whole process in its own thread and let the apps own thread just deal with message processing, thats probably the best solution (in effect there would be two threads anyway, one for your exe thats instantiated upon load, and the other is your 'worker' thread).

Hi everyone
When I use Visual C++ 6 to build a Doc/View application the final application will have an icon it its title bar. This icon is 16 x 16 pixel and looks exactly as the corresponding 16 x 16 pixel version of the icon I can edit in the resource editor.
On the other side when I build a dialog based application it will have an icon in its title bar, too, it is 16 x 16 pixel in size, too, but it does not look the same as the icon I can edit in the resource editor. I guess it is "shrunken" from the 32 x 32 pixel version of the icon in the resource editor, nevertheless it is not what I want because this "shrunken" icon looks distorted.
A screenshot demonstrating this behaviour:

Can anbody explain me the reason for this and how to prevent it?
Thanks,
Matthias "T.T.H." Grobe

I'm guessing here, but its probably a subtle change microsoft made to distinguish MFC dialogs from MFC apps. You could just use the dialog editor to copy the icon you want and paste it into the dialog project? Hope this helps.

It may be the 16x16 vs. 32x32 thing that's ailing you.

This is because CWinApp::LoadIcon will only load the large 32 x 32 pixel icon, and when you call CWnd::SetIcon(m_hIcon, FALSE), the SetIcon() function will shrink the 32 x 32 icon to 16 x 16. The fix is to add another icon member to your dialog class to hold the small icon, use LoadImage() to load it, and set that as your small icon
class CMyDialog : public CDialog
{
protected:
HICON m_hIcon;
HICON m_hSmallIcon;
...
};
CMyDialog::CMyDialog(...
{
m_hIcon = AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDR_MAINFRAME);
m_hSmallIcon = (HICON)LoadImage(AfxGetInstanceHandle(),
MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_MAINFRAME),
IMAGE_ICON,
16, 16,
LR_DEFAULTCOLOR);
...
}
BOOL CMyDialog::OnInitDialog()
{
...
SetIcon(m_hIcon, TRUE);
SetIcon(m_hSmallIcon, FALSE);
...
}

Have a look at the ExitProcess Windows API function.
Hope that helps

Here is inserted block:
exit, _exit
Terminate the calling process after cleanup (exit) or immediately (_exit).
void exit( int status );
void _exit( int status );
Function Required Header Compatibility
exit <process.h> or <stdlib.h> ANSI, Win 95, Win NT
_exit <process.h> or <stdlib.h> Win 95, Win NT
PS. But it's better to close and clear your program and exit.

Hi,
I didn't test it, but in your property page there is a method OnSetActive you may override.
Buy returning false instead of true you tell the system that this page cannot be activated.
Probably this works.

Thanks man!
that was exactly what i needed! but i have an other question if you could answer for me, the color of the text of the disabled page remains black, how do i change it to gray???
(maybe i can play with the method OnSetFont() ???? )
thanks again

The way my company's application did it was to remove the text from the tab. That way the tab is not clickable (because of the OnSetActive() code) and it has no text. It's very effective.
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks again for the reply....
how did they clear the text?
Yaron

When the tab is to be disabled:
TC_ITEM ti = {0};
char szText[2] = "";
ti.mask = TCIF_TEXT;
ti.pszText = szText;
ti.cchTextMax = 1;
VERIFY(pTab->SetItem(nPage, &ti));

Hi,
I would be really grateful for som info on this.
(1) How do I perform a javascript submit from a C++ client app. My own guess is that using CInternetFile::Write() would be a good start but I wonder whether this is enough or if perhaps special string formatting or additional data needs to be added to the written string.
(2) To do a HTML post could probably be done in a similar way but how do the the "name= " and "action= " parameters fit into the picture?
(3) Are there classes in .NET that would do this whole thing a lot easier?
thanks and cheers

Anyone know how to use data_seg() for sharing memory among a dll and an app? I have :
#pragma data_seg(".myseg")
int length = 0
#pragma data_seg()
in both my app header AND my dll? I change the variable in the dll but it does NOT affect the reference in the app  Is there something I am doing wrong? How do I set it up for sharing so that when I change the variable in one set out virtual memory, it automatically changes the reference in another?
Thanks to all.

|
|
|

Oh, I'm also using the #pragma comment(linker, "/SECTION:.myseg,RWS") statement in the header too so the linker can SUPPOSEDLY share the variable data memory.
Ta.
