but the statements after the call to WaitForMultipleObjects() are not executed.

Even if you use a timeout value? If you never get past a wait function then none of the objects
were signalled.

hi...
Thanks for ur replies...
i think ur right may b the event is not signalled.... code is as below
aslso its not my code and, event created is ITC_APP_EVENT_RIGHTSCAN...i have no idea where ITC_APP_EVENT_RIGHTSCAN comes from.....

hCenterDelta=CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, FALSE, _T("ITC_APP_EVENT_CENTERSCAN"));
hCenterState=CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, _T("ITC_APP_STATE_CENTERSCAN"));

hRightDelta=CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, FALSE,_T("ITC_APP_EVENT_RIGHTSCAN"));
hRightState=CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, _T("ITC_APP_STATE_RIGHTSCAN"));

hLeftDelta=CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, FALSE, _T("ITC_APP_EVENT_LEFTSCAN"));
hLeftState=CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, _T("ITC_APP_STATE_LEFTSCAN"));

hIRDAReset=CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, _T("NOTIFICATION_EVENT_WAKEUP"));

h = CreateEvent( NULL, TRUE, FALSE, EVENTNAME_KEYBOARD_CHANGE );

if ( h != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE ) {
SetEvent( h );
CloseHandle( h );
} // end if
//the closed event
hClosed = CreateEvent(NULL,TRUE,FALSE,_T("RfidCloseEvent"));
HANDLE hObjectList[] =
{
hClosed,
hCenterDelta,
hRightDelta,
hLeftDelta,
hIRDAReset
};

while (1)
{
DWORD wc = WaitForMultipleObjects(
sizeof(hObjectList)/sizeof(HANDLE), // number of handles in array
hObjectList, // object-handle array
FALSE, // wait option
(DWORD) INFINITE // time-out interval
);
//THE breakpoint holds at this point...
switch ( wc)
{
WAIT_OBJECT_0 + 2: //Center button
if (WaitForSingleObject(hRightState,0)==WAIT_OBJECT_0)
{
//some code
}
etc..etc..
}

}

LET ME KNOW UR THOUGHTS

bye

The only thing I see in your code sample is

WAIT_OBJECT_0 + 2: //Center button

WAIT_OBJECT_0 + 2 corresponds to the hRightDelta event handle, not the hCenterDelta event handle.
Remember the array is indexed from 0 Smile | :)

If you put a breakpoint on the switch ( wc) line and execution never pauses there then none of the
five events eing waited on are getting signalled.

hi Mark...
I found that the events ITC_APP_EVENT_RIGHTSCAN etc ..were not present in the devices registry...so i added these events ..but still that event does not get signalled ....

my device uses WIN CE 3.0...but the event gets signalled for another device which has WINCE 4.2

does this mean that 3.0 does not recognise ITC_APP_EVENT_RIGHTSCAN??...if so then how do i find which is the correct event

thanks

Hmm I have no idea how event objects relate to the registry.

You are creating named event objects in your code. That means if an event with the same name
already exists on the system then you'll get a handle to that same event. If the event does not
already exist in the system, you get a new event object.

Are you sure these "ITC_APP_EVENT_xxx" strings represent the name of named events in another
process? This has nothing to do with the registry.

How could i distinguish a DVD-RAM from a flash memory card
(both are Removable storage drives)
in runtime?

I hope "GetDriveType" API will return
DRIVE_RAMDISK for DVD-RAM Disk and
DRIVE_REMOVABLE for Removeable Drive.

You have a editbox CEdit m_EDit; and it has values "12345" now you want to show these values use of m_Edit1.GetWindowText();

When click button use of

CEdit m_Edit;
CString str;
m_Edit.GetWindowText(str);
MessageBox(str);

And if you want to set a value dynamicly for editbox use of SetWindowText

Use WM_KILLFOCUS for your text box and get the text using GetWindowText. I hope this is you want.

int GetWindowText( LPTSTR lpszStringBuf, int nMaxCount ) const;<br />
void GetWindowText( CString& rString ) const;

Use as below

CEdit m_ce; <br />
CString str;<br />
m_ce.GetWindowText(str);<br />
TCHAR szMsg[256];<br />
long lValue = _ttol((LPCTSTR)str);<br />
wsprintf(szMsg,_T("hEIGHT: %ld "),lValue);<br />
MessageBox(szMsg,NULL,MB_OK);

Hi,

I think u havent created a member variable for the editbox. Simply you would have written like
CEdit m_ce;
It ll not work out.
First you need to create a member variable for the edit box using class wizard with the control type as Edit.
say, the member variable is m_editChar. then,

CString str;
m_editChar.GetWindowText(str);
MessageBox(str);

now, the str ll give u the value entered by the user in the edit box.

Hope this ll solve your problem.

Thanks & Rgds,
Sri..
