Hi Anders,
Thanks for the advice. Well this is the first server application I am developing, and infact it is just a part of the lab work so I dont want to get stuck up with many compexities.
Anyway from the learning point of view, I should first be able to get a basic multi threaded server running! I can move over to IO Completion later!
Can you show me the links to the relevant code samples here on CodeProject?
Mike.

Is it possible to send messages to other windows? like for example WM_TIMER ?
if there's a timer running in another application, is it possible for me to make it speed up or down, or just to send more WM_TIMER messages?? if it is, i'd really like to know how.
Thanks
Kuniva

If you have the HWND of the target window, you can send a message to it.
The problem I think you might be seeing is that timer messages are the lowest priority message in windows. You should set up a timer thread that pumps its own timer message (*not* WM_TIMER) if you want a reliable timer.

I'm porting Chris Maunder's CHyperLink class to WTL, but I've gotten stuck on one thing. The MFC original uses PreTranslateMessage() to relay messages to a tooltip. There is no PreTranslateMessage() in ATL, but since ATL message maps are just big switch statements, I ended up with this:
BEGIN_MSG_MAP(CHyperLink)
if ( m_ToolTip.IsWindow() )
{
m_ToolTip.RelayEvent(const_cast<LPMSG>(GetCurrentMessage()));
}
MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_DESTROY, OnDestroy)
END_MSG_MAP()
This works but it's mighty ugly, so is there a better way of doing it?

Actually its quite groovy...
PreTranslateMessage in MFC acts as a hook into the default message pump to alter how messages are dispatched.
so what you are doing here in WTL fits in well.

take a look at SelectObject

|
|
|
|
Use DrawText() instead, also create and select a CFont beforehand using CFont::CreatePointFont .

I want to implement in the MeasureItem() function,but I found I can't
set the height base on the data of the item(because I call GetItemDataPtr(), it always returns NULL),what should I do?Thank you.
|
|
|
|

The problem is that during WM_MEASUREITEM processing there's no item data. If you have LBS_OWNERDRAWFIXED listbox, the message is sent when listbox is created - there are no items at this time. LBS_OWNERDRAWVARIABLE doesn't help either - it's sent when you add item, before your call to SetItemData.
You'll have to pre-calculate item height before calling AddString, store the value in the place from which MeasureItem can read, and use this value in MeasureItem.

hi all, i need some help on program easy stuff. im trying to program tic tac toe but im stuck on trying to figure out how i can program a function to test to see if there's a winner yet...any suggestions on how to make a very simple function that can do this?

Well, what you need to do is set up a 2 dimensional array to hold your board, and then step through the possible sequences that indicate success. I guess you could do it in a one dimensional array of nine elements as well, but either way, you need to check each winning sequence to see if they all have the same value.

Keybd_event() is too weak for my needs. Certain programs it doesn't work with. I can't figure out syntax for using Sendinput(). All I want is example code that sends "H" to "Untitled - Notepad"...
UGH, I am 97% done with an application and I get stuck on this, I spent 10 hours already trying to figure it out. I even tried learning assembly to stuff the keyboard buffer, but I couldn't find any websites using the Alpha Assembler.

As it's a W98 on function, it won't work unless you have a Microsoft SDK installed.

I use windows 98, so would I be wrong to assume that its already instealled... How can I check if its in or not?

Totally wrong. The SDK is released four times a year by Microsoft. Just search the site for Platform SDK. It's up to date headers and library files, etc. for developers, there is no need for an end user to have them and they do not ship with any OS.

You also need to free the BSTRs before storing new values in them. So in get_Property:
SysFreeString ( *pVal );
And in put_Property:
SysFreeString ( bstrProperty );
I believe it's ok to pass NULL to SysFreeString(), but it wouldn't hurt to put in some standard pointer error-checking as well.

Does anyone know how to get access to the time zone data that the clock/calender uses for the combobox and filling the TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure.
Happy programming!!

Check out the KB article "INFO: Where the Time Zone Information Is Stored" (MS's site looks to be down ATM so I don't have the article number). It says --
The time zone information is stored at the following locations:
On Windows NT:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones
On Windows 9x:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Time Zones
