I think that I can use SetProcessAffinityMask. For a process I assign it to one CPU and the other to another CPU. The two process can communicate through share memory. That's all what I think but now I try to find a sample to demonstrate the using of SetProcessAffinityMask. I read it a lot in MSDN but nothing is found. If you have the code, please show me. Thanks everybody.

Don't try to outsmart OS scheduler - your performance will be significantly down if you tie one process to first CPU and the other to second CPU. Just let Windows do its work and stop worrying about that.

Is there a simple way to get a serial number of the newtork card? Maybe an API call?

Thanks!

Enumerate handles

Hello,

How can I enumerate all handles used by a process?
(I mean files, sockets, mutexes, etc. and also GDI handles)
Which function API do this???

Thanks.

There is no publicly documented Win32 API to do this.

However there are some functions which will do this in the api for ntdll.dll. The book Windows NT/2000 Native API Reference documents these functions and gives examples of how to use them.

Search for NtQuerySystemInformation() on the web.

You want to query for class SystemHandleInformation, this has a value of 16.

Then to determine the handle type, call NtQueryObject()

Note that these APIs or the data input/returned may change between NT/2000/XP/etc.

There are some classes on CodeGuru that do examples of this work, but they are broken, as the data structures used to query the APIs are incomplete and incorrect - compare with the book and you'll see what I mean.

Cheers

Hi Carlos,

I look closely to EnumProcessModules,
also try to found some samples on the web,
but it seems this function can help only to
enumerate processes, not handles used by them.

Use Stingray Objective Grid 97

Hi,

can someone give me some information about using Stingray Objective Grid 97 Control? I had read the documentation but it´s very bad! Or has someone a tutorial about it??

thanks
Simon

It's not *that* bad. And there should be a plenty of samples with full source code.

AFAIK, there's no info on ObjectiveGrid on CP. You may consider switching to this free grid by Chris Maunder:

Windows CE and System font

12-Mar-02 20:56

Hi out there,

I'm working an instrument based on the Windows CE operating system. The applications is now to be translated into Japanese.
I have found a true type font "MS Gothic.ttf" that supports Japanese charactes. That works fine except for titles in dialogs that use the sysytem font.
I don't want to link the font into the OS image but instead load a system font dynamically.

I have tried to modify the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\SYSFNT\Nm] from Tahoma to MS Gothic
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\BarFnt\Nm] from Tahoma to MS Gothic
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\PopFnt\Nm] from Tahoma to MS Gothic
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\OOMFnt\Nm] from Tahoma to MS Gothic

But it doesn't work.

Any ideas??

How to get highlighted text by double click?

Pony

12-Mar-02 20:07

Hello,
I have a problem with text selection. I want to get the highlighted text that users double click on it (not only in my own application). Do I have to use COleDataObject to implement this? Is this about clipboard?

I'm a beginner. Guide me, please. Blush | :O

Re: How to get highlighted text by double click?

Tomasz Sowinski12-Mar-02 23:12

Yes, it's about clipboard. This code places the contents of strClipboardText variable in clipboad. You'll probably use CEdit::GetSel and CEdit::GetSel and CEdit::GetWindowText to get this string.

CString strClipboardText = ...;

if (!OpenClipboard() || !EmptyClipboard())
{
	AfxMessageBox("Error: can't open the clipboard.");
	return;
}
HGLOBAL hglbText = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_MOVEABLE, 1 + strClipboardText.GetLength()); 
char *pData = (char *)GlobalLock(hglbText); 
lstrcpy(pData, strClipboardText);
GlobalUnlock(hglbText); 
SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT, hglbText);
CloseClipboard();

Assuming that you're using CEdit control, there will be a problem with double-clicking - this action highlights the *word* you're clicking on. Previous selection is lost. You may try to override WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK to change this behavior.

CListCtrl -Max Visible text length 260?

12-Mar-02 18:45

When a string which contains more than 260 characters is inserted in a CListCtrl only the first 260 characters are visible. The string is not truncated cause GetItemText returns the hole string. Any ideas how to show the hole string in the CListCtrl?
