This is the correct behavior. The cursor is a shared system resource, no one app is allowed total control over it. Imagine if ClipCursor() worked 100% of the time. All you'd have to do was write an app that calls ClipCursor(0,0,1,1) and boom - instant denial of service.

I know that this question is not really related to Visual C++ but hopefully there will be someone here who has experience in real-time programming.
I'd like to allocate memory using malloc( ) function which allocates it on the internal SRAM. Does anyone know how I could do dynamic memory allocation on the SDRAM?

where else do you think you can dynamically allocate some memory ?
use malloc(), it will do the job for you, unless you use C++, then, use new instead.
but never forget : when you dynamically allocate some memory, you have to free it yourself, otherwise you'll get into memory leaks hell...
|

ohhhhh! nice memory leaks  never clean it after yourself!
is in C++ 'new' is a stub to call 'malloc'. by the way malloc is much faster than 'new' when called several hundred times.

In multiple heap scenarios you can define your own memory segments to specify which area of memory is used to allocate various elements such as messages, semaphores etc. I have a feeling that this is processor dependend and not something that I can do with C standard functions. Is there a way of doing this without depending on the platform being used? I realize that my previous question is not clear enough and I apologize for that. I must stress that this is a Real-Time programming related question.

That is platform dependent.

In real-time/embedded systems, where you allocate memory is often just as important as the memory you actually allocate. I believe the OP is asking how he can allocate memory in SDRAM instead of SRAM.
I think that is system dependent. I'm trying to remember my VxWorks stuff (haven't used it in a while) ... but I think you have to make a OS API call to allocate memory outside the default heap.

Thank you so much Zac. That answers my question.

In my Form1 (VC++ .NET framework), I first need to add prototype of WindowProc in header file. Which section shall it be added private, protect, or public??
Is following prototype correct??
LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);
Is following implementation function header correct??
LRESULT CALLBACK Form1::WindowProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
}

if the function is a member of a class, you must declare it static, so that it wont have the implicit this parameter...
by the way, i may be wrong (i see you're talking about the .NET Framework) but the C++/CLI forum may be more appropriate for your question.

it should be either global or public static of a class.

ooops.. sorry man.. it was a mistake I meant either in global or in public static scope. I shall correct it

I'm writing VC++ .net framework code.
I need to retrieve the windows WM_DEVCHANGE message
Shall I use virtual void WndProc( Message* m ) override function or LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) function??
How shall I add either of them to my Form class???
May you write down the format?

Hi,
I'm backing up files.. i want to know a better way of updating modified files.. now i just delete the old file and make a copy of modified file..
say if the file is in GB and just one line is appended in the last, for this i have to make a copy of data in GB.. is there any way to found which line is modified..
comparing files will be more expensive than make a copy, so any other suggestions or it is possoble to update a file like this..
Do your Duty and Don't expect the Result

Just a thought...
Check out ezpatch and RTPatch programs. As far as I remember, they store one copy of the file. Later they just store the differences between the file versions.
It might be one way to go.

I have created an add-in to do many things in the visual studios 6.0 environment. In this add-in I display things to the macro tab which is on the "Output Window" which also has the tabs Build,Debug,Find in Files1,Find in Files2 tabs. I am using IApplication* p_app->PrintToOutputWindow() function for showing messages and other things on the macro tab.
1. Is there a way to automatically display the macro tab after showing a printing a message on it?
2. Is there any way to clear this window programmatically?

Thanks but nothing is working i have tried everyting ! my code remaine the same !
Please someone help me !
void CMyList::OnOK()
{
UpdateData();
CWaitCursor wait; // Display a wait cursor
int x = m_list.GetItemCount();
for (int j = 0; j < x; j++) // For each item in the list
{
CString strWord;
strWord = m_list.GetItemText(j, 0); // Get the word
strWord.TrimLeft(); // Remove leading spaces
strWord.TrimRight(); // Remove trailing spaces
// Overwrite the old word with the new trimmed word
m_list.SetItemText(j, 0, strWord);
}
CString sName = _T("Name");
m_name.GetWindowText(sName);
LVFINDINFO stInfo = {0};
stInfo.flags = LVFI_STRING;
stInfo.psz = sName;
int nItem = m_list.FindItem( &stInfo );
if( nItem != -1 )
{
// the item is in the list control
CString sSecondColumnText = m_list.GetItemText( nItem, 1 );
// set the text to the second edit box
m_rezult.SetWindowText( sSecondColumnText );
}
}
