I noticed the forum for "Managed C++", what exactly does that mean?

 I am using the MFC. I have created a dialog, which has a static control and a comboBox, both elements have membervariables. I want to show the dialog like this:
....<br />
CMyDialogDlg mydialog;<br />
mydialog.m_static.SetWindowText("this works");<br />
mydialog.m_combo.AddString("this crashes");<br />
mydialog.DoModal();<br />
....
There is no problem setting the windowtext of the staticcontrol. But if i use AddString before the dialog is shown by DoModal(), it crashes. If i use AddString in InitDialog() , it works.
Can you explain me why?? what have i forgotten?

AddString() sends a message to a window that hasn't been created yet. You can't do this. You have to call it after the window has been created - OnInitDialog() is the place to do it.
Hope this helps,

Thanks,
as i mentioned, I know that it works, if i put this in InitDialog (or OnInitDialog() ) . But why does it work with a static control or a textbox?

No idea. It shouldn't work.
I wouldn't do it there anyway. Dialog boxes are responsible for showing the data. The class or function that uses the dialog box is responsibe for giving it the data - the dialog should then set the controls to reflect that data - the calling function shouldn't really need any knowledge of how the data is shown to the user.

this code would not budge because you are trying to add the strings to some objects which aren't even created, forget about the initialization which is manatory for the working of the gui object

I thought I read somewhere (yeah I know, real scientific.....) that static controls are available as soon as the dialog box they live in is instantiated. Combo boxes call malloc when they are created and contain pointers internally. Trying to call them before they are properly initialized will crash you.
I'm going to live forever or die trying!

I am looking for a way to get the mouseleave/mouseout method
for my activex control. When I test with ActiveX container tester
mousemove can get the event when it is on the control.
However, once the mouse is out of control, i don't get anything.
Thank you for help

You can use the TrackMouseEvent[^] API.
It only works on Win98 or above, so if you need Win95 compatibility, you'll have to simulate MouseLeave using a timer: Start the timer when the mouse is first moved into the control. In the timerproc, use GetCursorPos to see if the cursor is outside of the window. If it is, fire a MouseLeave event, and stop the timer.

Cool! I wish I'd known about that. The number of times I've used SetCapture() and tested the location of the mouse cursor...

Thanks for the helpfull post
How to use this TrackMouseEvent?
I have been looking for and
they said I have to add
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0400
this line. Still said TrackMouseEvent
is not defined. So I added #include <winuser.h>
the result is the same....

Hi, all
I am planning on an http web server, and I have read some of the I/O completion and multithread server articles, but I really don’t understand why anyone would develop a multithread server? Would it just make it more difficult and slow, because of all the critical sections that have to be thread-safe? Why use worker threads that loops until a service is requested. Can’t you just use completion callback and windows message-based notification of network events to serve connected users? What’s the point of using multiple threads in a server?
My server is going to run on older windows versions (95/98/ME) so I have to handle the worker threads (if I should use them) and connection sockets by my self, and of course the server has to support at least 500 user connections simultaneously.
Anyway, I really don’t see any performance advantage by using multiple threads, so please tell me what I am missing because it seems like everyone is using it. 
Thanks in advance

500 users at the same time on Win9x, interesting

Normally I use asynchronous socket, or if on NT based systems, IO Completion Ports.
A limited number of threads is a good thing, it makes the application scale on multi-CPU computers, a single threaded server only uses a single CPU.
And also, when a thread is "suspended" when waiting for IO like disk or network activity, it's good to have extra threads to keep the processor(s) working (if there is work to do, of course)

Multiple threads buy you nothing as long as you don't have an extra CPU available.
Oh and if you are never waiting on resources.
Well, such as reading a file.
Then multiple threads buy you everything.

Thanks for your replys, but I am still a bit confused
Are windows message-based notification of network events really slow? Can't they serve connected users, like reading from disk or sending data?
If I should have say up to 100 users connected to my server simultaneously, how is the best way to serve them? worker threads, windows message-based notification or somthing else?
And also, is it better to let threads loop until data is recieved or to use windows message-based notification?

forget window-message notification for a number of users up 100. It`s going to kill you machine

Hello Ted
Thanks for the reply. I have five property pages added to property sheet. I added <object>..m_psp.dwFlag |= PSH_HASHELP | PSP_HASHELP; for all the property pages but when I ran the app the help button(?) is still not showed up.
I selected system menu, context help properties for all the property pages and property sheet also.
Any clue on how to get this help button to show up.
Thanks for your help
Hari.

propSheet.m_psh.dwFlags |= PSH_NOAPPLYNOW | PSH_PROPTITLE | PSH_HASHELP ;
I forgot to add this line 
That should make it work, I hope
