In your WindowProc for your control, handle the WM_LBUTTONDOWN (and/or WM_RBUTTONDOWN) message. Inside that message handler, call SetFocus, passing in the HWND of your control. There may be another way, but I'm not sure of it.

im having problem in crystal report 6 (using DB2 database).
the database was created by our DBA which makes him the owner of the database and tables as well (sample table: DBA.owners_name). i was given an account, PROG_I which gives me minimal authorization to the database (i have to run "set schema DBA" in VC to access/operation with the database). when im trying to print a report file in Crystal report, a message pop-up saying "PROG_I.owners_name" is undefined reference. does anyone give me an approach or technique?... thanks

Sounds like you will need to edit the report changing the PROG_I.column references to DBA.column references. As far as I know, there isn't a simple way to do this, although in CR7 and later I know you can modify these things at runtime from automation code.
Be much cleaner to edit the reports though.

I am currently working on wrapping a third-party control into a MFC-based .dll. I have gotten used to properties in C# and was wondering if there were any design or implementation issues related to the use of the following within my class to mimic properties in C++.
private int m_Count;
int getCount()
{
return m_Count;
}
void setCount(int i)
{
m_Count = i;
}
__declspec( property( get=getCount, put=setCount ) ) int Count;

Hi All,
I'm looking for a regular expression parser that is fairly easy to use/implement in an MFC program. I've looked at the boost libraries regex++, but it seems like over kill for what I want. Any info is appreciated. Thanks.

Here is the problem I am having:
UINT WorkerThread(LPVOID pParam)
{
while (1==1)
{
UpdateData();
//do something
UpdateData(false);
}
return 0;
}
void main()
{
AfxBeginThread(WorkerThread, (LPVOID)this, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
}
The UpdateData() function does not work in the Worker Thread. I have researched this quite a bit, and apparantly others were having the same problem. However, no one was able to come up with a straight answer. Anyone know how to use UpdateData() in a worker thread? Any help is appreciated.

I wan't the worker thread to update the data of the dialog.
|
|
|
|
|
UINT WorkerThread(LPVOID pParam)
{
<code>CMyDialog *mydlg_ptr = (CMyDialog *)pParam;</code>
while (1==1)
{
<code>mydlg_ptr->UpdateData();</code>
<code>mydlg_ptr->UpdateData(false);</code>
}
return 0;
}
void main()
{
AfxBeginThread(WorkerThread, (LPVOID)this, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
}
would that make any difference?

I have tried that already, causes an assertion failure

whoops, sorry,
void main()
{
AfxBeginThread(WorkerThread, this, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
}
get rid of (LPVOID)
|
|
|
|
|
UINT WorkerThread(LPVOID pThis)
{
CMYClass *pThisObject = static_cast<CMyClass *>(pThis);
while (1==1)
{
pThisObject->UpdateData();//do something
ThisObject->UpdateData(false);
}
return 0;
}
void main()
{
AfxBeginThread(WorkerThread, reinterpret_cast<CMYclass*>(this), THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
}
AND DEFINITLY THIS SHOULD WORK!!!! I HAD TRIED A LOT OF TIMES...NO ASSTER OR NO ERROR WERE OCCURED!!!
cheers

Can you elaborate about the updatedata function ? I mean how u are using it, it obviously not a MFC code. You are not clear with the question.

What I am doing is writing my own scripting language in MFC. It is done in a text box, the program recognizes functions that the user types in the text box, and executes them accordingly. The user might type something that loops repeadedly, in which case it would have to be done in another thread, as to not interfear with the main dialog. I have a value variable on the text box that I am using for functions like find(), mid(), etc... It only works if it has UpdateData() before it and UpdateData(false) after it. This works completely fine when done in the main thread, but I am having problems doing it in a worker thread. I have tried doing what J.B. suggested, but it caused an assertion failure. Any way to do this?

Did ya check what caused the assertion? Like is it because of invalid m_hWnd, You can do so by clicking on retry at the assertion box. It will take you to the line that caused the assertion.
Assertion is mostly called due to null pointers in MFC.
Thread will start doing its job the moment you created it in this case...
So it is calling update even before the window is created.
Instead in the thread do the following check
if(!::IsWindow(pDlg->m_hWnd))
{
return 0;
}

You can't (or shouldn't) access MFC objects between threads. The dialog is created and managed by the main thread, accessing the CDialog object from another thread will often fail, as you've seen. This is just how MFC works.

Hello Michel,
I have had seen many times, Coders doing this
UINT WorkerThread(LPVOID pThis)
{
CMYClass *pThisObject = static_cast<CMyClass *>(pThis);
while (1==1)
{
pThisObject->UpdateData();//do something
ThisObject->UpdateData(false);
}
return 0;
}
void main()
{
AfxBeginThread(WorkerThread, reinterpret_cast<CMYclass*>(this), THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
}
So is this still bad idea
cheers

In MFC you can't access any CWnd derived objects created in one thread from another, well at least not easilly. You will just get lots of ASSERT's in a Debug build and it simply won't work.
One way to do what you want is to use PostMessage() to post a WM_USER_xx message you define. Post this from the worker thread to the Dlg. In the dialog code add a MsgHandler for the WM_USER_xx msg and get it to call UpdateData(). This will work a treat.

I appreciate all of your help I think I understand it now, just having a slight problem. How do you make an eventhandler that fires when an integer changes? Again, thanks for all the help.
