This is the exact kind of tip that i cannot get in the MSDN.
I found this out the hard way. I have an application that digitizes mamograms. A case of 4 images can be as much as 256MB. The digitizer only has a buffer to hold about 1/2 of an image so if you don't read the data in a 20 to 30 second period it will overflow. Well if the user pressed the minimize button the whole application thrashed for atleast that time and we got an overflow of the buffer and the pc had 512 MB of memory with almost atleast 150MB free. This was tested on NT4 and I believe Win2k but I have not tested it recently. Anyways this was because when the application minimizes the working set is trimmed. I did verify that was indeed what was happening on these operating systems.

if the window is in the background (not in focus - another application is in focus) - does the same thing happen?
No. Only when the application is minimized. My solution was to not let the application minimize only during digitization.

More important - if i set the working set to 64 MB, and allocated a 64 MB buffer and locked it, and only AFTERWARDS the user minimizes the window - does this also happen?
Yes. It would happen there too.

John - thanks for your time and effort!
Since my application has to record data in an extremely high speed from USB 2 (only graphics are the progress bar and status window) - I migh bypass the problem by running the engine on a different process (it now runs on a different thread). At the worst case - I will not enable the user to minimize the window during recording.
Thanks again,
Oren.

If you run it in a service or other application that does not have a window you will not experience this problem.

Thanks for ur intrest...I will try to explain the problem...i happen to come across.... codes in VC++ environment with strange looking macros...concepts like dll,and others not a part of core c++....i'm not sure they are there for winAPI or vc++ concept....i'm facing all kinds of microsoft technologies as com/mfc/atl/.net all of a sudden.. ..i don't know where to start learning and how to proceed....

Hi,
I'm no expert on VC++ but the books I've found most usefull are 'Practical C++ 6' By Bates & Tompkins (this has some nice example to get you started and some detail too.
And 'Programming Windows with MFC' by Jeff Prosise, this is my main reference and if I could only have one book on VC++ this would be it. It gives you lots of detail and explains things really well.
(I've just thought - I am using VC++ 6 which is fairly old now, anyway they are the books I use what I use for what its worth.)
If you already know C++ then you've got a good start  Good luck

I guess this has been updated since I bought my copy of Programming Windows95 with MFC.

Hi everyone,
In my code while debugging,
after user breakpoint is called after
this line pops up in debug output line.
I have some doubts that this may be happened
by not cleaning a _bstr_t type variable.
How do i allocate and free this type of variable?
Thank you very much.
Ugur Ozkan

well...that's kinda of the advantage of _bstr_t, you shouldn't have to allocate or free memory, because it does that all for you.

Let it go out of scope or set it to NULL.

Hi all,
Wondering if someone could point me in the right direction for a very basic tutorial for using Tab Controls in Visual C++. Been struggling to implement my own for a while now...
Thanks in advance

look for the CxImage-Library - found on sourceforge.net - i think its here on codeproject too! realy nice code, load/save all graphic-formats you need. i hope thats what you asked for ;o)

Hi Friends,
Can any one please tell me how to create Dialog without resource dynamically.
Thanks,
Live and Let live
|
|
|
|

take a look at CreateDialogIndirect in MSDN.

|
|
|

Thankyou for the answer.
Is there any way in which I can create Modal Dialog Box Dynamically without using resource.
Thanks,
Salman

You can override the OnCreate member function, and create controls dynamically there. And handle the command BN_CLICKED of the Ok button and put there your own DDX ....etc. etc.
I think this seems complicated and useless. What do you want dynamic dialog box for? Could you not create the dialog box in resource editor and only make the specific controls visible/invisible at runtime?

Thanks for your reply,
But I have to create OCX of my Dialog so, I want to create DialogBOx without Resource. Any how I got answer and will post this artical on codeproject as soon as possible. But the real problem is even I am able to create DialogBox Dynamically. I am not able to attach the controls to it dynamically. Once I get this answer I will post it as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Salman

I have a web control inside a modeless dialog in view/doc application. The dialog is implemented as a child of the mainframe. The problem is, when something changes in the web control (navigate2() is called), the dialog steals the focus from the mainframe and view.
Is there any way to prevent this, or restore focus back to the previous window who had it?
