If Windows starts my screensaver, when the screensaver stops running, child processes stop running as well!
Why I'm starting a child process in my screensaver is another story(it's not a virus or anything).
If I start the screensaver myself by double clicking on it, when it stops running its child process remains running.
Any ideas? I'm guessing it's a security feature, but I'd like to get around it if possible.
Thanks!

I am trying to display a CDialog derived class froma dll using COM. The COM stuff is working. It seems that my dialog is failing to create its own m_hWnd:
void __stdcall CMattDlgCmpnt::HtmlMsgBox( HWND wndParent, BSTR strmsg )<br />
{<br />
CWnd* pWnd = new CWnd();<br />
pWnd = CWnd::FromHandle(wndParent);<br />
<br />
CNormalDlg *wndNormalDlg = new CNormalDlg( pWnd );<br />
wndNormalDlg->DoModal();<br />
}
Debugging yields the following:
{CNormalDlg hWnd=0x00000000}
I tried doing this as well:
CNormalDlg *wndNormalDlg = new CNormalDlg( pWnd );<br />
wndNormalDlg->Create(IDD_DIALOG1);<br />
wndNormalDlg->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
But then I get an nasty ASSERT here:
#ifdef _DEBUG<br />
if (!_AfxCheckDialogTemplate(lpszTemplateName, FALSE))<br />
{<br />
ASSERT(FALSE); <br />
PostNcDestroy();
return FALSE;<br />
}
Any ideas. Thanks.

Hahahaha, i pity you man, coz you just dont know where the problem is .
dont worry i have been there too.
just add this line at the start of the CMattDlgCmpnt::HtmlMsgBox method.
AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState())
if this doesnt solve ur problem, ur then on ur own.
basically MFC dialogs and COM are not a good mix. u should try to use WTL or win32 way of poping a dialog.
The world is becoming small and so are the people.

I want to write an application to convert the jpeg files to thumbnails. Can you tell me where to start?

Try libjpeg. It's fairly low level so you should be able to do pretty much anything you need to do with jpegs.

I would avoid using 3rd party software as much as possible. How difficult it is to write a function to convert a jpeg file to a thumbnail file? I also have a need to convert other image formats to a thumbnail format.

It aint worth writing ur own code to do it, plus the jpeg decomp libs are free. Otherwise check out CxImage in codeproject.
Jesus! i am still alive.

It sounds very helpful. Can you tell me where I find the jpeg library file? I hope there is not much work when I deploy my application to a client machine.

Hi there!
I'm trying to "swap" keys on the keyboard.
The main reason is that I want to swap the " with « and »
depending on wether i'm pressing the left or right shift-buttons.
The hook "triggers" whenever I press the correct keys and
a MessageBox appears (I used it for debugging purposes).
Still I have trouble with SendInput and keybd_event.
I get keybd_event to send "A"'s and "B"'s and so on, but NO « and » (ALT 174 and ALT 175) (at least on my keyboard).
It seems that the ascii values are 171 and 187 for those two chars. I've tried to "send" 171 and 187 but still no luck. Is it because the chars are so "high up" in the ascii table?
I've tried SendMessage(GetForegroundWindow(),WM_CHAR,(WPARAM)'«',0) too, with no luck.
Any suggestions anyone?

Hi everyone,
I posted this question earlier today but i didn't get a response. I am a mini jam here, so I decided to ask it again. To the people who read my first post, SORRY!
I need to look into a UDP buffer but just peek at it. I have read that I can use MSG_PEEK with ReceiveFrom, but can I use it was Receive? I use Receive(,,MSGPEEK) with a TCP implementation and it works perfectly. How would I do this in UDP?
Here is what I have;
unsigned int temp;
int rVal = Receive(&temp, sizeof(temp), MSG_PEEK);
if(rVal < 0)
{
int err = GetLastError();
}
else
{
unsigned int RecvBuf;
int rVal2 = Receive(&RecvBuf, sizeof(RecvBuf));
...
}
Any help would be appreciated greatly. If you have code that does this, i would also appreciate that too.

hmmm... this is a silly slogan, i'm ONLY 17, and i don't use my age for getting pity!
use recvfrom for udp, it will return you the peer's address, so you'll know where the data came from!
Don't try it, just do it!

No, you don't understand...
These days it works in reverse. I'm 41, have a wife, three kids and an ex-wife.

On the other hand, though, I can often answer questions sensibly in the CP forums, so it ain't all bad...

Who said that was put there for pity?
That is really in there so that people DON'T talk down to me and like I am an idiot. I don't believe your comment was necessary, considering that it has nothing to do with pity.
Thank you for your help though. I appreciate it.

I have a richeditctrl derived class in a dialog. I want to do something i the onClick so I trapped the NM_CLICK for the control through class wizard. But the code never steps into this at all!
Thanks,
ns

Take a look at at CRichEditCtrl::SetEventMask and ENM_MOUSEEVENTS. For some reason, seems the standard way with NM_CLICK does not apply for rich edit controls.

Hi!
Using the eventMask and pretranslateMessage with a few tricky flags I was able to get what I wanted!
Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Try:
BOOL CMyDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
CDialog::OnInitDialog();
m_richedit.SetEventMask(m_richedit.GetEventMask() | ENM_MOUSEEVENTS);
}
void CMyDlg::OnMsgfilterRichedit(NMHDR* pNMHDR, LRESULT* pResult)
{
MSGFILTER *pMsgFilter = reinterpret_cast<MSGFILTER *>(pNMHDR);
if (pMsgFilter->msg == WM_MOUSEACTIVATE)
;
else if (pMsgFilter->msg == WM_LBUTTONDOWN)
;
else if (pMsgFilter->msg == WM_LBUTTONUP)
;
else if (pMsgFilter->msg == WM_MOUSEFIRST)
;
*pResult = 0;
}

I have developed a communications app that has had one unhandled exception error during the past two months of testing. I used Visual C++, and the app is running on Win2K Server. It runs great, no memory leaks, everything looks good. The longest I have let it run so far is for a couple of weeks being hammered with data, and there are not any problems. Once, there was an unhandled exception in debug.lib after it had been running for 4 days. I was hoping to have written a bullet-proof app without any problems. I know that Microsoft and other apps can have an occasional unhandled exception. Does anyone know what could cause this to happen so that I can put it in the analysis of my development folder. I can't duplicate the problem.

First thing to do is make your application so that it does not exit after an unhandled exception. Put a cach handler in your main application. If it is an MFC application override ProcessWndProcException(CException* e, const MSG* pMsg) in your application class and log the error so if it happens again you may be able to figure out what happened.
LRESULT CCommonAppBase::ProcessWndProcException(CException* e, const MSG* pMsg)
{
if ( e->GetErrorMessage(szError,MAX_PATH) ) {
Log("FATAL ERROR(%s): %s",_T("CCommonAppBase"),szError); }
return CWinApp::ProcessWndProcException(e, pMsg);
}
Override PumpMessage() and call CWinApp::PumpMessage(); inside a try catch block.
BOOL CCommonAppBase::PumpMessage()
{
BOOL retVal = TRUE;
try {
retVal = CWinApp::PumpMessage();
}
catch(CException* e) {
TCHAR szError[MAX_PATH];
if ( e->GetErrorMessage(szError,MAX_PATH) ) {
Log("FATAL ERROR(%s): %s",_T("CCommonAppBase"),szError);
}
e->Delete();
}
catch(...){
}
return retVal;
}
Use SEH and C++ Exceptions - catch all in one http://www.codetools.com/cpp/seexception.asp[^]. And activate it in your ::InitInstance().
BOOL CCommonAppBase::InitInstance()
{
_set_se_translator(SeTranslator);
return CWinApp::InitInstance();
}

The problem is simple:
I need to launch the default mail client (mailto: won't help here), open a new message and add some attachments to it. I need to do the same as when the user right-clicks a file and selects "Send to->Mail recipient". I need a solution that works for all mail clients and not just Outlook... and I need it quickly :/
