Hi all,

I have made a dialog based application in that i have made a List control and a button....

On that button click event a timer has been called every 10000 ms and inside that timer i have called a worker thread which is calculating some values and then i want to diaplay those values in that list control, for that i have made a object of a class and then i am inserting the values... but as soon as control reaches there program crashes and give a debug assertion failed error...

i just wanted to known how to remove this??/

Thanks in advance

We can't start guessing unless you show us the code with causes the crash!

You're trying to update the control from the worker thread, right?

If you are, post a user message to the main thread and update the list control from there.

Your all GUI related stuff should be in the UI thread (supposedely the main thread of the application).
When the worker thread is done with its calculations, it should PostMessage to the parent window of the list ctrl (or some other relevant window in the UI thread) by sending the result of its calculation. The important point here is that the worker thread MUST NOT directly modify a UI element, e.g. a list control (this would cause sync issues with unexpected errors).

WaitForSingleObject and SetEvent

Hi Everyone,
I have some confusion with WaitForSingleObject.
Is it necessary for a thread to be in wait state to handle an event?

for example,
Thread1 {
SetEvent(event);
}

Thread2{
while(true) {
if(WaitForSingleObject(event, INFINITE)){
SetEvent(event); //event raised again, but handler thread 2 is not in wait now
}
}
}

Thanks
laksh

All synchronization objects works the same way regarding this, e.g. locking a mutex, releasing a semaphore or setting an event.
In your case the event will be set until some thread calls any of the wait functions such as ::WaitForSingleObject(). The event may be set up to automatically reset when the thread that waits on the event gets released, or it may be set to be "manual reset" in which case you have to call ::ResetEvent() to set the event in a non-signalled state.

But, you have to call any of the waiting functions in order to find out whether the event is signalled or not.
You may call ::WaitForSingelObject() with a timeout value of zero in which case the function will return with WAIT_TIMEOUT unless the event was set.

If you use sockets, you need to handle all the FTP Ptotocol[^] stuff yourself.

WinInet is much simpler: WinINet: FTP Sessions[^]

Hi,

Actually i am getting several url 's from the server and i want to the url in my window application(Using MFC) in a CListCtrl.
But it is giving runtime error in InsertItem() ans SetItemText() function although complied with 0 erroes.
Can anyone tell me what is the problem.

My code is as follows:

void CMainDlg::UpdateFootPrintsForVisitor(int n, CString strResponseFootPrints)
{

if(n>-1)
{
if(strResponseFootPrints.IsEmpty())
return;
CStringArray* ptrstrArray = CParser::Parse(strResponseFootPrints,g_strDelimFLD);

for(int i=0; i<ptrstrarray->GetSize(); i++)
{
LVITEM lvItem;
lvItem.mask = LVIF_TEXT;
lvItem.iItem = i;
lvItem.iSubItem = 0;
lvItem.pszText = _T("Sandra C. Anschwitz");

int nItem=m_lstGetFootPrints.InsertItem(&lvItem);//error line during run
m_lstGetFootPrints.SetItemText(nItem,0,(LPCTSTR)(ptrstrArray->GetAt(i)));
}
}

Thanks in Advance
Dhiraj

This could be issue (just guessing), try this...

TCHAR szName[] = _T("Sandra C. Anschwitz");
lvItem.pszText = szName;

Just fill the ivItem with 0 to ensure that all other fields are not holding any garbage values.

for(int i=0; iGetSize(); i++)<br />
{<br />
LVITEM lvItem;<br />
ZeroMemory(&lvItem, sizeof(LVITEM));<br />
lvItem.mask = LVIF_TEXT;<br />
lvItem.iItem = i;<br />
lvItem.iSubItem = 0;<br />
lvItem.pszText = _T("Sandra C. Anschwitz");<br />
<br />
int nItem=m_lstGetFootPrints.InsertItem(&lvItem);//error line during run<br />
m_lstGetFootPrints.SetItemText(nItem,0,(LPCTSTR)(ptrstrArray->GetAt(i)));<br />
}

MSDN on iSubItem...

iSubItem
One-based index of the subitem to which this structure refers, or zero if this structure refers to an item rather than a subitem.

You are giving zero based, that should be the problem if it's a report style list.

Hi,

Actually i want ClistControl with only one column to show one data data. It does not contain anyother sub item. So iSubItem is given value zero and not one.

Dont know what to do.

From where you are calling method UpdateFootPrintsForVisitor from your code?
Is the m_lstGetFootPrints object is valid at that time?
Just try ::IsWindow(m_lstGetFootPrints.m_hWnd) to make sure that the control is created and ready to work.
