I need some help finding a memory leak in an isapi extension I am maintaining. This extension leaks memory at a rate of 7mb every 5 minutes. I've been thru the Code Project article: Memory(-Leak) and Exception Trace (CRT and COM Leaks) by Jochen Kalmbach and it seems to be COM objects that are leaking. His approach doesn't work well with COM.

I've tried using UMDH.exe from MS, but am not able to set gflags for inetinfo.exe.

Any help at finding these leaks and/or using umdh.exe is appreciated.

I can set the stack trace flag for inetinfo using gflags here (on a XP Pro SP2 box, running as admin). Is there an issue with permissions on your machine or is gflags just not working?

Here's the reference. You can display the warning with ok etc.
you use the macros such as __LINE__ to tell the user which line the error occured as the previous poster suggested.

Hi All, I try to convert files automatically when I drag-and-drop then onto a removable drive. I am able to do that using a ContextMenu with the right button drag-and-drop but how can I do that with the left button Drag-and-Drop ?

Thanks for your help.

I have a task on PC, that must execute at about 100ms( 50~200ms is OK) interval to acquire data from outside target. Otherwise the data stream from outside target will be lost. I create a thread to do this. while (1) { DoTask(), Sleep(100) }. most of time it works fine, when PC is busy( e.g. open a doucumnet, or move mouse quickly ), the task won't run at 100ms interval. so I try to let the thread to be high priority. A little bit better, but still same. Is there any mechanism can guarantee this task run at about 100ms interval?

Thanks Confused | :confused:

David Crow25-Oct-04 7:12

Why aren't you using SetTimer(100)? Unless you are needing granularity less than 55ms, it should suffice. See this article for more.

There are no "guarantees", since Windows is not a RTOS. However, multimedia timers[^] can often be good enough. Just don't use "WM_TIMER" timers - they are easy to use, but with VERY low precision.

My programming blahblahblah blog. If you ever find anything useful here, please let me know to remove it.

Thanks for you replay.
WM_TIMER is same as Sleep(), if you set timer interval as 100ms. you are not guaranteed to run at 100ms even 200ms or 500ms.
For Multi-Media timer... I 'll try.

You can use the following method...
Create a thread that will do your work every 100 ms..
ULONG __stdcall LogRotater(LPVOID pParam)// declare a thread function

And define it as below
ULONG __stdcall LogRotater(LPVOID pParam)
{
BOOL bStop=FALSE;
WriteMessage(msg,1);
while (bStop == FALSE)
{
HANDLE m_hEvent;
m_hEvent=CreateEvent(NULL,FALSE,FALSE,NULL);
switch (WaitForSingleObject(m_hEvent, DWORD(100)))
{
case WAIT_OBJECT_0:
bStop = TRUE;
break;

case WAIT_TIMEOUT:
//Do your work here ...

break;
}
}
return 0;
}

in case: WAIT_TIMEOUT you can do whatever you want to ...

Hello,
I working on FindNextFile(); and it works greate, but i is a problem.

I check for *.txt files in the c:\\ and when I find a file I take the file name and show it in my dialog window but the thing want stop, If there is only one file then I can check the file name so I don't use the same file, But if there is more than one file the funktion check and load the same files over and over.

Is there anyway to check so I don't use the same file over and over again?

Hmmm I use this function on a timer so it checks every second.

Please help me.

If you are only wanting one file:

HANDLE h = FindFirstFile("c:\\*.txt", ...);
if (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != h)
    ...

No I just want to read in one copy of that file.

if I have bla.txt and bla1.txt
this files will be ream in over and over.
So I need to read in them ones and if there is
a new file like bla2.txt I need to read in that file to but NOT bla.txt and bla1.txt one again.

It sounds like you might benefit from ReadDirectoryChangesW() and/or FindFirstChangeNotification() instead.

NO!,
I need to check for *.txt files every second.
And when I find a *.txt file I need to read in the the information from that file. So I need a check so I don't read in the same file one again. I only need to read the file ones. So how can I do that?

How about using SetTimer(1000)?

Can you rename the file before it has been read?

CMenu & MenuShowDelay

I have been searching for a way to modify the time it takes for a sub menu to be displayed when the mouse hovers over the parent item. I know I can change this setting system wide using SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETMENUSHOWDELAY, ...) but I would not like to make a system wide change, just application specific.

I believe I will need to subclass CMenu to change this default behavior, but I have been unable to find out where in CMenu the code that is doing this lives. Does anyone have any idea where/when this registry value is queried so that I can replace it with my own settings?
