Ahhh, that makes sense. Just to be sure, I would pass the object as follows, correct?
AfxBeginThread(Mythread, this);
thanks,

From
char* cMyVar = "megabonus";
I want to copy the 3 first chars to
char myother[2];
But how?
I tried strncpy(...) but it's not the right function... or..

You need a 4-character array.
char myother[4] = {0}; // init to all zeros
strncpy ( myother, cMyVar, 3 );
It's important to init myother to all 0 because strncpy does not append a terminating null when the source string's length is equal to or greater than the # of chars you want copied (3 in this case).

Hi,
I have following problem:
UINT CMyWorkerThreadsCoolFunction(whatever)
{
SerialFlowOfDataSusceptibleToHung();
}
<\pre>
I wanna let the user define the time interval between moment 0 and moment x he is ready to wait. Depending upon this he gets more or less data.
Question: how to achieve this?
Thanks
Pepe

Thanks for your answer, I must have not been clear enough, sorry for it.
This is all about communication over the serial port.
SerialFlowOfDataSusceptibleToHung() is a data stream from the external device, and it is itself completely blocking the worker thread from which the given read operation was issued, as a result of which another blocking command like Sleep(ms) is no solution to this problem.
In the majority of cases all the data can be read from the device in less than a second, but unfortunately in case the read operation hungs or slowly executes, the worker thread does not return for a long time.
My prog uses time sharing of the serial port between several worker threads (a command from one thread can only be issued after the previous from another thread has been completely executed, and thus the port has been freed)
If one of my threads blocks the port, all the communication of my other threads with the device is impossible.
That's why I wanna limit the maximum time of one thread blocking the one and only communication channel.
Limiting the time of a read operation does not affect the average thread, because it usually terminates quickly. But in case of a trouble (slowed down read) the user receives a little less data, but does not have to wait too long for it.
Thats why I wanna find a solution to limit the time of execution of blocked threads.
Thanks in advance.

Hi all!
I'm at the choosing stage.
Next I'll learn one of them thoroughly.
Which should I choose, wanting long term investment, some game programming fun, and also general graphics programming excellence.
So, my esteemed collegues, what is the choice
that Experience whispers to your ears ?
Thanks!

My opinion: DirectX
Because I feel OpenGL is somehow fading out, and DirectX has become _much_ better (than it was before). Most gamers are using Windows anyway...

Easy to learn and get started:
OpenGL (I hear the DX is getting better)
Portable:
OpenGL
Most advanced and will stay that way:
DirectX
However, OpenGL implements extensions that provide most if not all the same functionallity. However, these extensions are vendor specific and many times are VERY hard to locate documentation.
Programming for the X-Box:
DirectX
Driver quality:
???? (Someone else can answer this)
What are game programmers using:
DirectX mostly. Some are still doing OpenGL, but the non-Windows market is pathetic so I really don't see the advantages.

Thanks for the reply!
I got the impression that I'd be better with OpenGL since
it's platform independant.... ¿

If you are going to be porting to Mac, Linux, etc, then yes. Otherwise, if you are only going to developing for Windows, then portability really isn't a concern.

Hi,
I am going to use SHBrowseForFolder in my application. Is there any dependency issues with this? Will it automatically work on Windows 95 onwards?
Thanks Again

The API works on all OSes, however not all of the flags do. MSDN lists which flags are suppoted on which OSes.

Have you used the TBSTYLE_CHECK style for your toolbar buttons?

you mean this:(or something like this)
if (!m_wndToolBar.CreateEx(this, TBSTYLE_FLAT|TBSTYLE_CHECK, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_TOP| CBRS_GRIPPER | CBRS_TOOLTIPS | CBRS_FLYBY | CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC) ||!m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_MAINFRAME))
It doesn't work

Hi All,
Can anybody help me out find some way in an application in which a vector can be pass thru commandline
The vector which i wanna send is STL(Standard Template Library) based vector
|
|
|
|
|
A vector itself cannot be passed via the command line. You can pass the data as arguments to a program. There are many classes on CodeProject for reading command line arguments.
Michael

Im not sure if I understand the question correct, but I suppose you could
put all arguments in a string and feed it to system() if the data consists of standard types. Otherwise you might want to serialize the data to a file and pass the file as input to the commandline..

Hi.
I got some help a while back to deleting directories directly using SHFileOperation.
All works fine when I set the file name directly as "d:\...\..." in the WIN32_... variable. If I use char chFile[] = "d:\\..." it is OK too.
However, because I need to search through the directories and eliminate what I need, I tried to use sprintf and also CString to set the directory path and using this to delete the directory. It doesn't work. I think it has to do with needing a LPCTSTR which is a constant and what I am doing is not constant.
How do I get around this or how would I proceed? I am really stuck on this.
Thanks.

You're probably not getting the pFrom buffer right, it needs to be terminated with two zero bytes, which sprintf() does not do. Check out my SHFileOperation wrapper class in the Shell section which handles creating all the buffers for you.
