Im not sure whether i've answered you.
if you explain, what you are trying to do will be more useful.

I don't think BOOL is one of the data types supported by CArchive. I usually treat my BOOL types as a flag in a BYTE or DWORD when serializing or something to that effect.
|
|
|
|
|
Much scraping for nothing. 
BOOL is a type defined in WINDEF.H
typedef int BOOL;
and CArchive has an operator
CArchive& operator <<(int i);

Fair enough. I stand corrected. 
I guess because it wasn't in the MSDN list for CArchive, so I just assumed...
Anyway, to save face, Serializing a BOOL (int) will take up 4 bytes in the file which can get excessive if there are many BOOL's in many objects. Storing as many of these as flags in BYTE's or DWORD's will prevent waste.
Good day and thanks for the correction.

Sincerely, me personal, I wolud like to prefer wasting few bytes than wasting time and adding extra code. 
Although, that's not so big subject to argue...
Have a nice day!

After reading the API for PeekMessage, this only works with the message queue of the current thread. I have tried using this function in another thread, and passing the HWND of the MainApp´s window and this does not work. (If I have understood the MSDN correctly, this is the correct behavour). Is it possible to peek into the message queue of another thread?. For example
UINT ThreadProc(LPVOID pVoid){
MSG msg;
struct_t* pS = reinterpret_cast<struct_t*>(pVoid);
HANDLE hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, _T("NAMED_EVENT");
ASSERT(NULL != hEvent);
if(NULL == hEvent){
return 1;
}
DWORD dwWait = 0;
BOOL bContinue = TRUE;
while(bContinue){
dwWait = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent, 1000);
switch(dwWait){
case WAIT_TIMEOUT:
while(::PeekMessage(&msg, pS->hWnd, NULL, NULL, PM_NOREMOVE)){
bContinue = pS->pThread->PumpMessage();
}
break;
case WAIT_OBJECT_0:
bContinue = FALSE;
break;
}
}
return 0;
}
struct_t is just an example of what I am passing. The HWND of the main application window, and pThread the CWinThread of the main application.
Any suggestions would be appriciated...
Thanks

TRY ATTACHING THE HWND TO A CWnd object.
so you can get the message queue.
CWnd wnd;
wnd.Attach(hwnd);
......
wnd.Detach();

No, I have tried that and it does not work. The PeekMessage (I think) is still looking in the current threads message queue (i.e. the worker thread). This is not the result I need.
I have tried also the following:
BOOL CMainFrame::FudgeForceRedrawOfMainWindow(){
MSG msg;
while (::PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, // pump message until none
NULL, NULL, PM_NOREMOVE)) // are left in the queue
{
AfxGetThread()->PumpMessage();
}
return TRUE;
}
A function to see if there are any messages pending in the App´s message queue
BOOL CMainFrame::IsMessageQueueEmpty(){
// QS_ALLINPUT
// ***********
DWORD dwState = GetQueueStatus(QS_ALLINPUT);
if(HIWORD(dwState) == QS_ALLEVENTS){
return FALSE;
}
// Nothing of interest
// ******************
return TRUE;
}
Calling this function in my worker thread instead of ::PeekMessage(....) i.e. in the ThreadProc
Changed the structure passed to include a CMainFrame pointer pxFrame
...
case WAIT_TIMEOUT:
while(!pxFrame->IsMessageQueueEmpty()){
pxFrame->FudgeForceRedrawOfMainWindow();
}
break;
...
When called from the tread, the FudgeForceRedrawOfMainWindow() function never has any messages in the queue (in the PeekMessage(...) and therefore the PumpMessage() is never called.
HOWEVER if I call the FudgeForceRedrawOfMainWindow()in the same thread as the MainApp ( in lengthy interations) it works fine!
I´m a bit stumped about this....

Exactly what are you trying to do and what is the problem? You could always post a message from your worker thread to your main window (which is owned by your main thread) and do your strange IsMessageQueueEmpty() and FudgeForceRedrawOfMainWindow() thing there, but even without knowing the problem, I think your solution is questionable.
Edit: I was thinking about it, and i only managed to think up one classic mistake in which this would be necessary. Immediately after creating a worker thread, you wait for the worker thread to finish in the main thread which of course means that the main thread is unable to handle messages.

My Problem is that I have to use CDAO* MFC classes for an application nad they are not multithreaded. Using another library / collection is not an option (boo hoo!). Opening tables and querys using the dereived tables takes (sometimes) ages. During this time, the UI does not process the normal messages (WM_DRAW etc). To get around this, I am trying to create a worker thread that will "Force" the Main window (CMainFrame) to update it´self. Some functions within the CMainFrame have an iterationary style, therefore I can call my "FudgeForceRedrawOfMainWindow()" every n steps in the iteration. Unfortuntly, the DB functions are not, for example CDaoDatabase.Execute(...); That is why I am trying to call the "FudgeForceRedrawOfMainWindow()" from a worker thread, i.e. create the worker thread before calling the function (CDaoDatabase.Execute(...)) and then closing the thread once the function returns.
Trying to post a message from the worker thread to the main thread (Registerd windows message WM_USER+n) does not work as they are not processed. Until AFTER the CDao* function returns.
Hope this answers your question, and that is why I cannot do it any other way, and why I have posted my problem here...

You can't get your main thread to redraw as it has to wait for CDaoDatabase.Execute(...) to return.
You got the idea upside down. The worker thread is the one that should perform your lengthy processing ie. CDaoDatabase.Execute(...) should be in the worker thread and not the other way around. If you only wish to have one query execute at a time you can always disable the main window (and maybe pop up a progress bar window - one of those in which the progress just bounces left and right) before you start the thread. And re-enable the window (and kill the progress bar window) when the worker thread posts a message to the main thread that the execution has completed.

Yes I agree totally, that is how I would like to do it, but the MFC CDao classes do not allow the use with multiple threads and changing the library is not an option (even to the standard CDatabase, CRecord would be enough) As I am "only" "maintaining" this application. Only the main thread (CWinApp) can have access. It was just a thought...
Thanks anyway

Did you call AfxDaoInit()/AfxDaoTerm() in the worker thread?
|
|
|
|
|
Of course, the problem is in the non existent multi-threading capabilities of the MCF DAO library. I´ll have to live with what I have and wait until I have the time to re-implement the whole DB access of the application (perhaps ADO, have to play around with that before I decide) Until then...
Thanks for the time and help you have given...

Hi this is my first post in this forum. I am having problem with a portion of codes in C++. Hope you guys can help me solve this matter. Sorry if it's too long and also my terrible English. Thank you all in advance.
I have a function ValidateInvCtnReturn() which process the invoice inputted by user and return AE. The function is retriving few data from inv_lot table which are invoiceNo, cartonNo, ReturnStatus and few more.
Depending on the input, there are 4 posibilites of AE being returned which are:
- AE_NOINVOICE => The invoice is not found in the database
- AE_DUPLICATERC => The invoice has a RC status in ReturnStatus field
- AE_DUPLICATERA => The invoice has a RA status in ReturnStatus field
- AE_NOERROR => The invoice has passed all the checkings and no error
I have tried several attempts on retrieving the table.
___________________________________________________________
1. Input a non-existing invoice, existing invoice with RC status, existing invoice with RA status
Result: As expected, program returns AE_NOINVOICE, AE_DUPLICATERC, AE_DUPLICATERA in order successfuly.
2. Input an existing invoice with no returnstatus (returnStatus field is NULL in database)
Result: I am expecting the program to prompt me the "SUCCESS" message. Instead it prompts database error, which is a default error message whenever there is a problem with the database.
Following is the code calling ValidateInvCtnReturn() function:
if(ValidateInvCtnReturn(invoiceStr)!=AE_NOERROR){
DisplayMessage("No error");
}else{
DisplayMessage("SUCCESS");
}
//The ValidateInvCtnReturn() function
int ValidateInvCtnReturn(const char* invoiceNo)
{
//DisplayStatus("Validate Invoice");
char sourceStr[SRC_LEN+1];
int ae = AE_NOERROR;
HRESULT hr = S_OK;
ADODB::_RecordsetPtr Rs = NULL;
ostrstream osSrc(sourceStr,sizeof(sourceStr));
osSrc << "SELECT InvoiceNo, cartonNo, ReturnStatus FROM inv_lot "
<< "WHERE InvoiceNo='" << invoiceNo << "' AND "
//<< "CartonNo ='" << CartonNo << "' AND "
<< "DivCode='" << gDC << "' AND "
<< "FactCode='" << gFC << "'"
<< ends;
_bstr_t Connect( gConnectStr );
_bstr_t Source ( sourceStr );
try{
TESTHR(hr = Rs.CreateInstance( __uuidof( ADODB::Recordset )));
Rs->Open( Source, Connect, ADODB::adOpenForwardOnly, ADODB::adLockReadOnly, ADODB::adCmdText);
if (Rs->BOF){ // no records returned
DisplayMessage(GetAppError(ae = AE_NOINVOICE));
// ae = AE_NOINVOICE;
// DisplayMessage("No Invoice");
}
else if (stricmp(((char*)(_bstr_t)Rs->Fields->Item["ReturnStatus"]->Value),"RC") ==0){
DisplayMessage(GetAppError(ae = AE_DUPLICATERC));
// ae = AE_DUPLICATERC;
// DisplayMessage("Duplicate RC");
}
else if (stricmp(((char*)(_bstr_t)Rs->Fields->Item["ReturnStatus"]->Value),"RA") ==0){
DisplayMessage(GetAppError(ae = AE_DUPLICATERA));
// ae = AE_DUPLICATERA;
// DisplayMessage("Duplicate RA");
}
else if ((Rs->Fields->Item["ReturnStatus"]->Value.vt == VT_NULL) ==0){
DisplayMessage(GetAppError(ae = AE_NOERROR));
ae = AE_NOERROR;
DisplayMessage("NULLY");
}
Rs->Close();
Rs = NULL;
}
catch (_com_error &e )
{
ae=AE_DBERROR;
DisplayComError(e);
}
return ae;
}

may be you are not linking to the directory whose fucntions you are calling. YOu need to mention the name of the library in the Additional Dependencies option.
Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

Did you include the cpp files in which these functions or structs are defined (or the library) ?
BTW, it would be nice that you translate the error messages in english.

Either the cpp files contains the implementation should be included in you work space or provide the lib file in the linker->input (under project setting)

I have a project with UI language is English. I have to support french language for my project. I have 1 problem and i think you can help me. UI has done.
I have a problem: MessageBox. Buttons on the my MessageBox are OK - Cancel but in the French are OK - Annuler.
I using MB_OKCANCEL.
I have not solution for this problem (from OK-Cancel to OK-Annuler). Example
Please help me soon!
Thank you very much

And please say me about PleaMessageBoxIndirect. with sample.
Thanks and I sorry to inconvenience.

These buttons depends on the language installed for windows. So it is not dependent of your application but rather of the language of windows. If you install your program on a french windows, the buttons will be in french.

Oneway to is to define two string table one is for french and another one in english
see the sample snippet
#define LANG_FRENCH
CMyDialog::OnInitDialog()
{
CString strText;
#ifdef LANG_FRENCH
LoadString(ID_OK_FRNCH);
#else LANG_FRENCH
LoadString(ID_OK_ENG);
SetDlgItemText(IDB_OK,strText
}
remove the definition, if you wanna support english

Quick question:
Does anyone know how to invoke the Microsoft HTML Help workshop to compile a project from the command line? I feel like I'm being really dumb, but there seems to be a shortage of information on the subject.
