Subject: WBEM Query too slow
Category:
I have an application that must find out the current load on the system on a regular basis. I'm using WMI/WBEM to do this. The problem is that one of the WMI calls takes about 1/2 second to return...
This is a BIG problem.
The call that takes so long is the ExecQuery call that only happens once per calculation. The loop gets the LoadPercentage for each proecssor on the system. (I think). I need the enumerator in anycase.
Here's my code:
long CSysLoad::GetLoadPercentage()
{
// Perform the query
IEnumWbemClassObject *pEnum = 0;
try
{
// ***********************The next line takes 1/2 second
hres = pSvc->ExecQuery( language,query,/*BEM_FLAG_FORWARD_ONLY*/ 0x20,NULL,&pEnum);
}
catch (CException *e)
{
}
if(FAILED(hres))
{
CErrorInfo err;
GET_ERROR_MSG(lpMsg, hres);
err.SetError(hres,CString((LPCSTR) lpMsg ));
throw err;
return 0;
}
long lReturnValue = 0;
// Define the object interface (AND initialize it to NULL)
IWbemClassObject *pObj = 0;
ULONG uReturned = 0; // Used to check the number of objects returned
long lTotalLoad = 0;
int iProcessorCount = 0;
while(true)
{
// Check each processor, average result
hres = pEnum->Next( 0,1,&pObj,&uReturned);
if(uReturned == 0) // If no more to process, uReturned is set to 0 so we're done
break;
// Since we're not done, extract the LoadPercentage from the query result
BSTR strClassProp = SysAllocString(L"LoadPercentage");
VARIANT v;
hres = pObj->Get(strClassProp, 0, &v, 0, 0);
SysFreeString(strClassProp);
// If the property is found, convert our variant to a number.
if(!FAILED(hres))
{
/* bstr_t temp(v);
TCHAR buf[128];
_tcscpy(buf, (LPTSTR)temp);
long lResult = atoi(buf);
*/ if (v.vt = VT_I4)
{
lTotalLoad += v.iVal;
iProcessorCount++;
}
} else {
CErrorInfo err;
GET_ERROR_MSG(lpMsg, hres);
err.SetError(hres,CString((LPCSTR) lpMsg ));
throw err;
return 0;
}
VariantClear(&v);
pObj->Release();
}
// Calculate the answer
return (iProcessorCount > 0) ? lTotalLoad / iProcessorCount : 0;
// If this doesn't work, we will be running WIDE OPEN!!!
}
Thanks for the help,
Bill

Hi,
Here's my situation...
I have an MDI app that has one CFormView class registered.
I'd like to add a simple new CView class to my app. I've registered
default CMyView/CMyDocument classes using:
m_pMyDisplayTemplate = new CMultiDocTemplate(
IDR_DEFECTSDISPLAY,
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyDisplayDoc),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CChildFrame),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyDisplayView));
AddDocTemplate(m_pMyDisplayTemplate);
This follows the original CMultiDocTemplate. So on
CWinApp::OnFileNew(), it creates a new document of the original
type. How do I bring up a prompt to ask what type of document
I want to create?
Much Thx,
t²

Does anyone knows how to draw polygon filled with red color and this change only pixels that are different from white ?
I know it should be some magic ROP2 Code, but which one ?

Ok I know this might sound stupid but I have to find out. I have recently come across code that does this:
unsigned int len:4;
What does the semicolon signify? I have not seen this type of "shortcut" using C++. I have been scouring through all the literature I have on C++ and can't find it so in taking the chance of sounding stupid I must ask this question.
What is this signifying a value? Or is it a bit designation saying use 4 bits instead of 4 bytes to represent this value? Please help I am going crazy trying to figure this out...
btw, please refrain from answer that this is a semicolon  I know many of you are urged to do so <g>.

it's a colon.
actually, it's a 'bitfield' specification, used to set a specific bit position for data within a struct or union.
from the MSDN:
This example defines a two-dimensional array of structures named screen.
struct
{
unsigned short icon : 8;
unsigned short color : 4;
unsigned short underline : 1;
unsigned short blink : 1;
} screen[25][80];
The array contains 2,000 elements. Each element is an individual structure containing four bit-field members: icon, color, underline, and blink. The size of each structure is two bytes.
Bit fields have the same semantics as the integer type. This means a bit field is used in expressions in exactly the same way as a variable of the same base type would be used, regardless of how many bits are in the bit field.

Thanks, Chris, and you're right it is a colon
Is there and MSDN article or knowledgbase number you can refer me too? Doing a search for bitfield specification brings up nothing we'll things I can't make sense of. Basically, I just want to see if they have an example, like:
struct Length
{
unsigned short begin:4;
unsigned short end:4;
};
Does this designate the structure to be a size of 1 byte (4 bits * 2) or is it still a 4 byte structure, in which you do a read in it will only ready the first 1 byte of data? For example, we have a binary data that looks like this:
00001111000000000000000000000000 <= 4 bytes long
we read it into our LENGTH struct is it now read as:
begin = 00001111
end = 00000000
extra bits are ignored.
or is read like this:
begin = 0000111100000000
end = 0000000000000000
Thanks for the quick answer, and I hope I'm not annoying anyone

an MSDN search on "bitfield struct" gives a ton of articles. but the first one that comes up for me is titled "INFO: Initializing Bitfields as Integers in C" is has some sample code.
not annoying me... i'd forgotten all about the mysterious bitfield stuff. now, thanks to your question, i have another bit (pun intended) of C trivia to impress people with.

Thanks, Chris! That sort of explained it, I'm just going to brute force the rest and add a strucutre with that information an dthen add it to watch and see what values are assigned to each member variable
Btw, did you get my email, I am definetly looking forward to a reply. I am very interested in your IMGDLL file on our website and had a couple of questions basically, what is the size of the DLL if you do a static link how much does that add to my final EXE.
Maybe you may want to post that information here so others can view it, but for someone who created non-DB applications that are not part of work you can't beat the value on that piece of software

ImgDLL was discontinued a while ago. It was replaced by the even-more-capable ImgSource (http://www.smalleranimals.com/isource.htm). ImgSource does much much more than ImgDLL, and is faster, more stable, easier to use, etc..
static linking to the ImgSource .LIBs adds anywhere from 30K to 700K, depending on which of the functions you pull in; simple image processing stuff gets you just a few K, TIFF support brings in over 300K, JPG is 100K or so, etc..
(sorry, didn't get your mail until late night, CP email notifications were delayed again today, i guess)

Sorry it is ImgSource, however what is the ImgX product? I see no mention of that on your website, just on the boards, is this the one going for version 5? Sorry, but I am really interested in this product for my own personal library, and is their any licensing issues associated with this control? Is there a license fee associated with any distributed work using this control?
But basically what is the difference between ImgX and ImgSource? I don't see a reference to ImgX on your site under Products.
Thanks, and sorry about all the questions, but you're product seems very interesting

ImgX is a VB wrapper for ImgSource. It is a product from a company called Designer Controls. We share boards because a lot of the ImgX issues are ImgSource issues. There are links to ImgX sites from the boards and from the ImgSource home page.

Oh a VB control, I'll take a look at ImgSource then It took me a long time to totally ween myself away from VB development. Chris, let me say that if your responses here are any indication of the type of support your provide, and your pricing is that good, you may find yourself having a new customer before the end of the day But first I'm going to try it out and see if I can remeber how to make all the extern calls to DLL functions or is that LoadLib and GetProcessEntryPoint to return function pointers?? Oh, well I'll figure it out and I see that you do offer samples with the download
Thanks again Chris for all your help, now I'm going to download and evaluate the library.

Hello,
I am trying to implement a bar like the outlook bar and want to insert drag and drop functionality in that bar. For example if you check the outlook bar you can move the 'contacts' to the end of the list of items in the bar i.e. drag contacts at the end of the list and drop it there. Any hints on how I would go about getting this functionality. I am confused as to whether I should use the method OnBeginDrag to start the operation or OnLButtonDown(). All the items on the bar I believe would be components so how would I start a drag operation.
Please let me know.
Thank you

I have been trying to provide some changes to a CListViewCtrl via superclassing in a WTL/ATL SDI application. The error returned during the creation of the window is "class does not exist" error (error code 1411). Below is the code sample. Any suggestions on what is missing or needed?

The error was the same whether I use my code or the DECLARE_WND_SUPERCLASS. I have it commented out to as a reminder that the GetWndClassInfo() is the structure of the DECLARE_WND_SUPERCLASS().
I was looking at overriding the cursor (IDC_ARROW to IDC_CROSS)in the view and the CS_HREDRAW & CS_VREDRAW to eliminate flicker during resize (not provided in the default DECLARE_WND_SUPERCLASS.
Thanks...

I was looking at overriding the cursor (IDC_ARROW to IDC_CROSS)in the view
Isn't handling WM_SETCURSOR easier than superclassing?

That maybe. I was looking at overriding the flicker issue based on the knowledge-based article Q183210. Having a different cursor would come for free (changing the icon handle).
For some reason I thought this would be an east fix

HI
I’m confused between pointer to CWnd and handle also to CWnd .What’s the difference between handle and pointer in CWnd object .For example when I want to chat text color in text box control :
HBRUSH CMyDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC*pDC,CWnd*pWnd,UINTCtlColor)
{
HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);
//////////////////////////////////////////////
CWnd* wnd=GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1);
if(wnd==pWnd) // using pointers
{
pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(255,0,0));
}
///////////////////////////////////////////////
return hbr;
}
this code doesn’t chang text color .But when I use handles like this example :
HBRUSH CMyDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC*pDC,CWnd*pWnd,UINT nCtlColor)
{
HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);
////////////////////////////////////////////////
CWnd* wnd=GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1);
if(wnd->m_hWnd==pWnd->m_hWnd) // using handles
{
pDC->SetTextColor(RGB(255,0,0));
}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
return hbr;
}
now this code do what I want to chang text color .
Can any one tell me what difference between pointers and handles in CWnd objects ?
Thank you …

I believe that a pointer is an actual object (CWnd for example) and a handle is the location in memory of that object (or object referenced by the pointer). So say you have a window in memory and you want to access the methods/properties of that window...you would have a pointer/object that "attaches" itself to the window at that memory location thereby giving you access to its "structure and methods". Hope that helps.

Handle to a window (HWND) is a Win32 animal - it's a magic cookie which is used to identify windows in the system. Ok, it's not exactly magic: HWND is just a 32-bit number without meaning outside of running Windows system.
MFC is a C++ library, and represents windows as C++ objects derived from class CWnd. Each CWnd-derived object has a data member, m_hWnd, which holds the corresponding Win32 HWND. But the connection between HWNDs and CWnd pointers doesn't stop here: MFC also uses handle maps to provide C++ pointers to CWnd-derived objects when it's needed. In your example, OnCtlColor function receives C++ pointer to a CWnd. Before calling your handler, MFC checks if there's already some CWnd object, if not it creates temporary one and passes its address instead of HWND.
Actually, the mapping is somewhat more complicated: there are 'permanent' and 'temporary' maps, I believe this could be the source of your problems.
