Two considerations:
1. Only one window can have the focus at a time.
2. It is indeed possible to give the focus to a dialog which is not used to start a thread. This a design problem.
Post the code where :
a. you create the thread
b. you want the dlg to be updated.

So why are you not calling SetFocus() for the control you want to have focus?

Are you really passing NULL for the WPARAM/LPARAM parameters when posting the WM_NEXTDLGCTL message?
That sets the focus to the next control in the dialog that has the WS_TABSTOP style. Is that what you want or
do you want the focus on a certain control?

Yeah. I figured filet-o-fish threading would fix this one[^]

The problem you're probably running into is that you're making message calls to an HWND created in thread A from code that is executing in thread B. To make things work correctly, you to to make sure that the code executes on thread A (or whatever the correct thread ultimately is). What you can do is have your worker thread (the thread(s) that is spawned by the main UI thread) call PostThreadMessage, and use the thread ID of the main UI thread. The message will be some custom message specific to your app, and in that message handler, you can then do things to your UI/dialog box.
You should read up on multiple threads and windows, and the PostThreadMessage/GetCurrentThreadId API's.

I have VC++ project. In this project I have included Max plugins which are developed using Max4.0. Now I have to configure this project to Max 7.0. What are the changes do I have to make in the configuration manager?

Hi,
No one can help you because they don't know what you're referring to.
What is Max? What are max plug-ins? Are they using (written in) plain old C++? COM? .Net? Something else?

I'm working in a VC++ project. In this project I have included some 3DStudioMAX Libraries. This project while compiling gives "Fatal Error: UnKnown MAX Version" C1189. What is the problem?
|
|
|
|
|
Have a look at some of these entries, should give you an idea of what is wrong.
Basically the error is that you are using an unknown version of 3DStudioMAX, check the header file that is producing the error to see why it thinks the version is unknown.

Hi Friends ,
I am new to this Forum and to the seamless World of C++.
I have just been assigned the task of managing database updates and i dont have much clue abt it so without beating about the bush ill get to that!!!
In my C++ application the database is read once in the begining into local variables which are nothing but C++ objects acting as a sort of "Logical Cache" ,and the data thus retrieved into cache is processed .
WHile the first process is in progress ,the database gets updated which will be notified to the application ,upon receiving this notification , the application without disturbing the current process , has to update my Cache , so that the latest data is avaialble for the subsequent processes/calls.
I think it might require usage of Multithreading and Mutex,but thats that!
Can somebody help me with some tips or even better some sample code to kick start this activity.
Thanks in advance friends!

If the application is already being notified of the update, then you've got the hard part done. All you need to do now is call the routine that queries the database, and then update the UI.
Yes, you can use secondary threads for (some of) this, but they are not for the faint of heart. Unless you use them exactly right, they will cause more problems than they solve.

Is there any other method other than threads , with which i can achieve the application processing its current call with the old data , and at the same time it updating the Logical Cache with the new data , for subsequent calls.

Hello,
i redirect the output flow of stdout with a pipe to a buffer.
Is it also possible to catch the position and color of the font & background?
Big thanks
