Take a look in the topic: "CreateWindow" in speciall to the flag dwStyle and dwExStyle of the VC++ Help or in MSDN.
You can combine the flags there. The default one is WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW (that has caption, borders and so on) you can modify it in CMainFrame (for app window) or CChildFrame (for document/view window) in PreCreateWindow. Set windows sizes, caption, remove/add style flags...

Hi, I have 2 variants of usage of WaitForSingleObject. Pls tell me which one is the proper usage?
Version1:
<pre>
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream.h>
HANDLE hEvent;
DWORD WINAPI SampleThread(LPVOID iValue)
{
int iFinish = 120;
for(int i=100;i<=iFinish;i++)
cout<<i<<endl;
SetEvent(hEvent);
return 0;
}
void main()
{
HANDLE hThread;
DWORD dwGenericThread;
hThread = CreateThread(NULL,0,SampleThread,NULL,0,&dwGenericThread);
if(hThread == NULL)
{
DWORD dwError = GetLastError();
cout<<"SCM:Error in Creating thread"<<dwError<<endl ;
return;
}
hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL,FALSE,FALSE,"Test");
cout<<"Started waiting for the thread to complete.."<<endl ;
WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);
cout<<"Thread Completed."<<endl ;
CloseHandle(hEvent);
}
</pre>
Version2:
<code>
// WaitForSingleObj.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//
#include "stdafx.h"
// WaitForSingleObject Sample.cpp
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream.h>
DWORD WINAPI SampleThread(LPVOID iValue)
{
int iFinish = 120;
for(int i=100;i<=iFinish;i++)
cout<<i<<endl;
return 0;
}
void main()
{
HANDLE hThread;
DWORD dwGenericThread;
hThread = CreateThread(NULL,0,SampleThread,NULL,0,&dwGenericThread);
if(hThread == NULL)
{
DWORD dwError = GetLastError();
cout<<"SCM:Error in Creating thread"<<dwError<<endl ;
return;
}
cout<<"Started waiting for the thread to complete.."<<endl ;
WaitForSingleObject(hThread,INFINITE);
cout<<"Thread Completed."<<endl ;
}
</code>

In the first version the call to CreateEvent(...) should come before CreateThread(...), because the new thread might start and end before the original thread reaches CreateThread() ...
Otherwise, both are OK.
Hope this helps ...

It looks as if you want to know when the worker thread has finished, right?
Your first alternative waits on an event to be signalled from within the worker thread.
Note that as already advised you have to create the event before it is used or you'll be facing a runtime error eventually.
By using this technique you will be informed when the thread is about to finish. My point is that by the time the event gets signalled and your waiting function is released, the worker thread may or may not have finished completely.
You should wait on the thread handle instead, like you do in your second alternative. The thread handle will enter "signalled" state when the thread has finished completely and has been unloaded from the system.
Read more about worker threads here[^].

Thanks guys.. your answers really helped me. I had a doubt if I could pass the handle of thread instead of the handle of an event.

Hi all:
I've heard a lot terms which talks about "mapping", but my question is in the case of dll mapping what the heck “mapping” means here? My guess in general in this scenario is that, OS first load the dll from disk to memory, and this way makes the dll has addresses, and when an executable wants to use this dll, the OS simply make a address translation mechanism in which by using the specific address contained inside executable address space itself this dll can be accessed or called, it is just a process of address translation from address in executable to dll address. If this assumption is true, how about dynamic loading, what happened to GetProcAddress()? Just get a address inside executable? And I believe this assumption applies to all the situations that I can think of in which "mapping" is involved.
|
|
|
|
|
What exactly is your question ... ?? 
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry, if the question is unclear, Just to reiterate, in short what "address mapping" means and does my previous assumption about it right.
|
|
|
|
|
Your assumption is correct. This is what happens when an executable calls a function from a DLL directly.
With "GetProcAddress()", the DLL is loaded to memory (and mapped to addresses) when you call "LoadLibrary()". After the DLL is mapped, the call to "GetProcAddress()" will return the address that is mapped to that specific function.
Hope this answers your question ...

Thanks for the reply, So, there's a address translation involved. From exe address space to the dll address space. I wonder is there any "official" reference?

Hi
Can anyone answer
What are the steps/procedure to convert and SDI application to MDI
Thanks
|
|
|
|
|
Personaly, I would create a new (MDI) project and copy in the relevant parts from the old project.
This is because it is not so straight-forward to convert a project from SDI to MDI.
You need to:
1. Change your CMainFrame class so that is derives from CMDIFrameWnd and not CFrameWnd.
2. Create a CChildFrame class that derives from CMDIChildWnd.
3. Assuming you're using Document/View architecture, you'll need to modify your CSingleDocTemplate to CMultiDocTemplate.
4. A few more little stuff that I can't really think of right now ... 
Hope this helps ...

Hello,
If I have my base class files in one directory say e:\base where I have a .cpp file of the name tableframe.cpp
In the tableframe.cpp I want to include a .h file of the name MainFrm.h from the project directory say e:\planning then how do I include it. because when I try to include MainFrm.h in TableFrame.cpp I get complie error file not found.
I think the compiler is searching in the base directory.
How do I divert it to the project directory planning.

Did you insert path to Additional Include Directories on the Property of your project.
Right click on the project and select Property and on the C/C++ enter path to Additional Include Directories
|
|
|
|
|
Or, you could enter
#include "..\planning\MainFrm.h"
instead, which would tell the compiler that the include file is in e:\planning rather than e:\base
This would be more efficient if it was just this include file that is located in e:\planning. If you have lots of include files in e:\planning, it would be more efficient to use the method described by "WhiteSky".
hope this helps!

I have completely forgotton how to do this. I want to grab a single word from anywhere on the screen ie. not limited to my applications window. Many moons ago I found a project on sourceforge that had this ability but have since lost the link and forgotton the name. Hope somebody could put me back on track.

It's close to what I want, but that snippet retrieves the whole text, I need to retrieve the individual word.

Hi,
The following is the code block in one of my function>
Analysis* pOap = new Analysis(szTemp);
if(pOap)
{ // get the analysis header from the LCQ file.
if(!pOap->Open((const char*)szTemp,FileWriteMode))
}
On executing Open statement i am getting the following error.
tcscpy_s.inl
line:18
Expression _Dst)!= NULL && ((_SizeinBytes))>0
What could be the error?
Any help is appreciated.
Regards
|

What does the constructor of Analysis do with szTemp ?
Could it be that the constructor deletes (frees) this pointer ?

Here,I create a object(CWnd subclass) successfully,but it could not or should not be display on its parent object's client area,So I must destroy it but leave its parent works well(but can not use this object)?
BEST REGARDS

?????
If you need a new window without parent, add a new view and make a new frame. Then you can switch between them and use them independantly.
And about your question... what are you asking for?
To destroy the window. From VC++ Help:
CWnd::DestroyWindow
virtual BOOL DestroyWindow( );
Return Value: Nonzero if the window is destroyed; otherwise 0.
