I *guess* that SendMessage has the special code handling WM_COPYDATA (mapping between memory spaces of two processes). It's probably allocating some resources before passing control to target wndproc, and cleans up afterwards. With PostMessage cleanup would be more difficult.
Hm. Cleanup in the target process should not differ, regardless if the original message was queued via SendMessage or PostMessage. It is just cleaned up after it was taken from the message queue.
I suppose the problem is the source process. If you use PostMessage you never know when it is legal to destroy the buffer.
But you are right, obvioulsy there must exist some special handling for WM_COPYDATA in the Win32 message passing system (Win32 subsystem in CSRSS.EXE)

hi all
i'm trying to have an app that kicks off 3 or 4 child apps using CreateProcess() where only one is active at any one time ... i use SuspendThread() to make one stop and then ResumeThread() to make another start ... its all going fine except i cant find a way of telling the suspended thread's window to minimize itself ... am i being dumb or is there another whole approach i should be using to control the starting and stopping of these kiddy processes?
thanks for any pointers
"... and so i said to him ... if it don't dance (or code) and you can't eat it either f**k it or throw it away"

I don't think you'll be able to minimize window when its thread is suspended. What kind of applications are these child processes? Are there your apps or 3rd party code?

hi thomasz
i managed to get them minimizing and stuff by doing a showwindow() before suspending the threads ... im ending them with terminateprocess() which it says in msdn is bad bad bad but it works ok ... unless there is a gotcha waiting for me?
two of the apps are the flash player showing diff movies and the other is an app im writing
another question that is baffling me is how do i get the apps to show on a particular display device in winxp with multiple monitors attached? i cant find anywhere in the createprocess() stuff that lets me specify that
thanks for help

er, you may not want to do that... Sounds like a prime way to cultivate memory leaks... maybe it's all good, donno... sounds dangerous though. You couldn't just hide the windows & send them WM_CLOSE messages?

Think of it as just having a huge virtual screen, bits of which (not necessarily contiguous bits...) map to actual physical monitors. You can enumerate the available monitors, retreive the bounds for the one you want, and then just position the windows onto it the same way you'd move them around the screen normally.

Hi..
I have did some simple graphic (not a bitmap) about texture mapping on a sphere in the CView (using MFC). Now I want to show it in a rectangle frame in a dialog box. I dont want the code anymore in CView but only as a preview in a dialog box. Is there any way to do this? Is there any website I can refer to?
|
|
|
|

Derive a class from CWnd and use it as user control in dialog. OnPaint handler should perform the texture mapping or whatever you want to display.

Hi,
Is it possible that CFileDialog interferes somehow (for example due to some mistake) later opening of a file using fopen?
I have a setting dialog and its state can be loaded and saved. I'm using CFileDialog to get the file name and path to be saved/opened and serialization for the loading itself. The setting file is opened from the menu.
The error occurs if I first either load or save the settings and then try to run one thing in my program. In that "one thing" a file is tried to be opened using fopen but the opening fails. If I remove the CFileDialog from loading and use static file name instead when opening a file using CFile the opening succeedes.
Are there some other things that usually interfere fopen?

Can you check errno variable when fopen fails? This will give you more info on why fopen failed.

Hi,
the CFileDialog changes the current working directory when you select a particular file. Are you using the value of current directory in any way for opening the file?
To prevent this change in the current directory, use the OFN_NOCHANGEDIR flag in the member variable m_ofn of CFileDialog.

How can I get all key stoke events in my application, not just those
I get when my application window is active?
|
|
|
|
|
See SetWindowsHookEx with parameters WH_KEYBOARD and WH_KEYBOARD_LL.
|
|
|
|
|
I have seen those, but I still don't get it rigth. Can you give
me some example of it?
|
|
|
|
|
1) http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/0700/Win32/Win320700.asp - example of WH_KEYBOARD_LL hook (works on WinNT and later)
2) Make search in CodeProject for "hook" word in article titles, you will see number of useful articles:

}
Can anyone help me finish it.

void main is not valid C++, even if your compiler does not know it.
I dunno what gets is, but printf is a C function. I also cannot see what you have included. If you use C++ ( i.e. use iostreams instead ), then reading values from a comma delimited string is easy, just use getline and make the second parameter a ','.

I think you have misplaced }
double total_points;
}
should be at the bottom
gets(student_data.total);
}
}
BTW, one debugging technique is to remove everything and slowly add code that works until you locate the bug. So try to get
void main ()
{
}
to compile and then proceed from there.
