Well I had the same situation few years back, If I remember correctly I handled the OnInitialUpdate() and OnSize() call of Parent class,
The first problem as I see is an repainting problem,
Hope this help.

Sounds like some sort of focus issue, but it's difficut to guess from your description.

Hi to All,
I have got a message Queue.
A thread function which should be able to process the queue, (that is if any data is available, then do some processing)....otherwise do nothing..
Now, my problem is...I cannot keep a while loop (inside the thread) and keep checking for the queue if there is any element in the queue...because it will consume lots of CPU processing power....Instead, I found the best method is to ......have a method, say getq()...which can be a blocking call...ie, inside my thread while loop , I should be able to do something like
threadFunction()
{
while(1)
{
if(getq() != 0)
{
}
}
}
so the functionality will be...it will go inside(if block)only when there is an element in the queue...otherwise wait there...
Now, I need help/hints to make the getq function...(which will return any value only if there is any elemt in the queue...otherwise it will not return the control...It should keep waiting till any element is there in queue )
thanks in advance
-----------------------------
I am a beginner

This way you're simply 'passing the problem' to getq method.
BTW when the queue is empty your thread may go to sleep (i.e. call Sleep [^]) to release the CPU.

You have to use events for that: you can wait (without consuming any CPU time) on an event to be notified. Typically what happens is that you have a thread pushing elements into your queue and a thread popping element from the queue. The thread popping elements wait on an event to be signaled by the other thread after he pushed something into the queue. You will also need to add proper synchronization on your queue to avoid accessing it from both threads at the same time.
I suggest you start by reading this article[^] which will give you an overview of threads and synchronization techniques.

If you're using MFC, you could simply derive a class from CWinThread. It's really simple and you don't need to maintain a queue or anything. MFC does everything for you. You could use PostThreadMessage[^] to post a message to the message queue of the thread.
I have a feeling that the family of WaitFor... functions may be of help to you if you aren't using MFC!

Hi,
You might consider using a semaphore to control queuing/de-queuing so that the de-queuing thread does not consume any CPU while it is waiting for more items to process. There is an exellent Queue class on this site:

Its slick and very compact - you wont get much better that this.
Have fun.

Hello, In my App I need to do some processing prior to the system going into a sleep mode, and once again when waking up.
I have tried a number of different ways of implementing this, but haven't succeeded in sucessfully intercepting the message. The code for the current implementation is included below. My app is SDI, OS is Win2000.
LRESULT CADSL_LoggerView::WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
// TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class
if(message == WM_POWERBROADCAST)
{
CString szMsg;
BOOL bRC;
switch (wParam)
{
case PBT_APMSUSPEND:
szMsg.Format("Received PBT_APMSUSPEND");
g_pLogFile->Add(szMsg);
bRC = KillTimer(ID_TIMER);
szMsg.Format("KillTimer() returned %i",bRC);
g_pLogFile->Add(szMsg);
break;
case PBT_APMRESUMESUSPEND:
szMsg.Format("Received PBT_APMRESUMESUSPEND");
g_pLogFile->Add(szMsg);
bRC = SetTimer(ID_TIMER,300000,TimerProcs); // 5 mins (300 secs)
szMsg.Format("SetTimer(300000) returned %i",bRC);
g_pLogFile->Add(szMsg);
break;
}
}
return CChartView::WindowProc(message, wParam, lParam);
}
I have seen other messages go through the function, but a breakpoint after if(message == WM_POWERBROADCAST) never seems to fire on hibernation. Can anyone give me some idea of what's going wrong, and how to track it down ? Many thanks !

check the power configuration settings of the operating system
If it doesnt work check it on another PC, maybe on your old PC isnt all modern enough

It is definitely not an OS problem - the system does hibernate. Also, I know the WM_POWERBROADCAST message does get issued, as I can see it being "caught" by another project ("PowerLog" downloaded from website). So, it's definitely something to do with my implementation. For instance, does my code snippet have to be included in any particular class of the project ?

are you shure that your winproc is the active one of the main window?

There is only one view - normally hidden, I admit. Surely such a messsage (WM_POWERBROADCAST) still gets to a window even if it is hidden ? (or is this my problem ?)

For anybody that hits this problem, I thought that I would update this thread. By a process of trial and error, I found that the only class of my project that would recognise the WM_POWERBROADCAST message was CMainFrame (by overriding WindowProc() )

Hai friends
what is multithreading, and how to use in vc++, and how to tested it...
help me plz...

This subject is way too broad be explained in message on a forum. I suggest you read through the articles available here on codeproject that talk about multithreading or to google for it. Or even better, to buy a good book on the subject. You can also have a look at this excellent article[^]

It is a really big topic, you're strongly encouraged to read a book about. For an introduction see [^], [^].
Multithreading is what you typically need, when, for instance, your program is performing I/O operations for a long time and you don't want the user interface hanging in the meanwhile.

Yesterday you asked us to "explain" COM, ATL and MFC. Now you're ready for multithreading. 
Will you PLEASE do everyone here a favour by buying a book? This forum is ONLY for asking specific queries.

Hello Friends
What is Difference between
ShowWindow(hwndDlg,SW_HIDE) and EndDialog(hwndDlg,0)?
Which One we need to use?
Thanks & Regards
Yogesh

ShowWindow(hwndDlg,SW_HIDE) only hides the window (but the window still exists) and furthermore, it can be applied to any type of window (even a control for instance). EndDialog destroys a modal dialog, so the dialog doesn't exist anymore afterwards. And it can only be used for a modal dialog (it would be a bit similar as calling OnOk or OnCancel).
yogeshs wrote: Which One we need to use?
That really depends on what you want to do . If you need to use only one of the functions, why would both of them exist ? They are there for a purpose and both of them can be used depending on the purpose.

Usually documentation helps.
For instance MSDN on EndDialog [^]:
The EndDialog function destroys a modal dialog box, causing the system to end any processing for the dialog box.
MSDN on ShowWindow [^]:
The ShowWindow function sets the specified window's show state.
Hence, roughly speaking, the former destroys the window, the latter just hides it.

c++ program to convert text into braille character
|
|
|
|
|
You just asked this same nonquestion a half an hour ago. #1 you didn't ask a question. #2 you're not likely to just be handed a program.
You measure democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.

Please understand that, no one can help you by giving the whole source code.
Its better to ask, either as
"Any one have idea, how to convert a plain text into braille character programmatically. Using c or c++, Any help will be appreciated."
Well please go through Libbraille, the following link [^].
It will surely help you.

Surely a simple array is most of what's needed (maps from characters to strings, say).
