    - PostQuitMessage Apparently, PostQuitMessage 'posts a quit message to the calling thread's message queue'. How does it know which window this relates to? What if the calling thread's message pump is sending messages to more than one window, or what if there is more than one window in the calling thread but each with their own message pump How would the function know which window to send the quit message to in both of the above cases?

    - handle leaks..? Hi all, It works fine on XP Professional but not on WinNT 4.0 and Win2k. While PrivateBytes, VirtualBytes,etc doing very fine I see Handle count keep going up in the Task Manger and PerfMon. Its about handle leaks but I wonder if anything special about winnt 4.0 and win2k. In the NT Service I'm creating threads in a loop, threads return fine and I do close handles using CloseHandle() in a loop. And the return value of CloseHandle() for all the handles looks fine (as viewed using OutputDebugString() in the debugger and WaitForMultipleObjects always is WAIT_OBJECT_0) for(i = 0;i<z;i++) { array[i] = CreateThread(0, 0, // use default stack size (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE) ThreadProc, // thread function NULL, // argument to thread function 0, // use default creation flags &dwThreadID); } DWORD waitfor = WaitForMultipleObjects(noofprocess,hThread,TRUE,freq); int relhandles = 0; switch(waitfor) { char clip[512]; BOOL close; case WAIT_TIMEOUT: OutputDebugString(_T(" WAIT_TIMEOUT")); for(relhandles = 0; relhandles < curIns; relhandles++) { if(hThread[relhandles] !=0) { close = CloseHandle(hThread[relhandles]); if(close != 0) { sprintf(clip,_T("\n Handle %d closed \n"),relhandles); OutputDebugString(clip); } else { sprintf(clip,_T("\n Close Handle %d failed \n"),relhandles); OutputDebugString(clip); _Module.LogEvent(_T(clip)); } } } break; case WAIT_ABANDONED_0: OutputDebugString(_T("WAIT_ABANDONED")); break; case WAIT_OBJECT_0: OutputDebugString(_T("WAIT_OBJECT_0")); for(relhandles = 0; relhandles < curIns; relhandles++) { if(hThread[relhandles] !=0) { close = CloseHandle(hThread[relhandles]); if(close != 0) { sprintf(clip,_T("\n Handle %d closed \n"),relhandles); OutputDebugString(clip); } else { sprintf(clip,_T("\n Close Handle %d failed \n"),relhandles); OutputDebugString(clip); _Module.LogEvent(_T(clip)); } } } break; default: OutputDebugString(_T("default")); } thank you, vinod Tag: !gle Tag: 226268

    - Help about graphs and how to query them. Hi, I'm sorry if this it not the right newsgroup. My question is related with databases, however the way I'm going to handle everything could not be related with that (I use algorithms about reading graphs), and maybe you guys come have a good idea. Ok, let's see if I can explain the problem. I have about a SQL database with 15 tables. Each table has several fields, however each table has a common field called 'Code' ex. Table Vehicles -------------- Code Make Color Table People ------------- Code Name Age Table Addresses ----------------- Code City ZIP ... Now we want to relate records from one table to another. For example, we want to say 'John has two cars' In order to do that, I have an external table called Links with source an destination fields. For the example we would have Source Dest ---------------- P132 V100 P132 V242 (P132 is a record from the People table with code 132, V100 a vehicle from the Vehicle table with code 100, and V242 a vehicle with code 242) So, with all that, we know that John (P132) is related with two vehicles. If I want to run the query 'People associated with vehicles' it would be easy to query that table and get that information. Now, let's suppose we have this situation: Source Dest ---------------- P132 V100 P132 V242 P140 V500 P132 P140 In this example, John is related with Michael (P140) and Michael is related with a vehicle (V500). If I want to run the same query than before 'People associated with vehicles', because of P132 is related with P140 and P140 is related with a V500 this implies that P132 is related with V500. Now, the query is not so simple, because it's like a graph and I need to make a Depth First Search to get what I want. Doing that, I will get that P132 is related with V500 because there is a 'path' to get there. I have done all this and it works fine. The problem that I have is that I need to make that Depth First Search for each people that I have in the database in order to see if I have vehicles associated with it. If I don't have many records it's ok, but If I have 100,000 people on the database I would have to make that search 100,000 times just to see if there is a path between them, I mean, if there is a way to get from a person to a vehicle. In this case... this solution doesn't work, because it takes forever... What do you guys suggest I can try? I though that one solution would be to have a process running on the server that maintains a table with ALL the links that we have in the database and the depth of the link. So, in our example we'd have a entry "P132 V500 with depth 2" Having that table it would be easy to query. Inconvenience: the table is going to be HUGE, and also the process has to be smart enough to keep track of deleted links, new links... I'd appreciate if you guys have any idea or suggestions about this and how I can get a better perfomance. Thanks a lot for reading this whole message!! Tag: !gle Tag: 226247

The following code compiles with gcc3.2 and Intel 8.0, but gives error C2764 "template parameter not used in partial specialization" with VC7.1. The workaround would be to repeat the complex type deduction done in DefinesAType for the specialization of SomeClass, which is code duplication and error-prone. //a class that has public typedef template < typename T > struct DefinesAType { //assembles in a complicated (assumed) //way a new type from T typedef T AType; }; //class SomeClass will be specialized template < class T> class SomeClass {}; //specialize on the type defined in DefinesAType template < class T > class SomeClass<typename DefinesAType<T>::AType> { }; int main() { SomeClass<int> sc; } Tag: !gle Tag: 226221

    - <char*> data with process-to-process messages Hi there, I register a custom message with RegisterWindowMessage function. I would like to pass <char*> messages via the message: char buf[80]; .... // fill the buf with a message SendMessage( HWND_BROADCAST, MYMESSAGE, (WPARAM)buf, NULL ); this of course does not work as expected: the array is correctly received only in the process that sends the message. all other processes cannot see the message data (I suppose this is due to memory beeing virtually adressed in each process). my question is: how then should I declare the memory to be able to pass the data to another process as <char*>? I've tried to alloc the memory globally (via GlobalAlloc) and pass the pointer but with no result. The only solution I've found is to register the data as an atom (GlobalAddAtom) as pass the atom handle. This solution, however, does not look like a general one. thanks in advance for your help, Wiktor Zychla Tag: !gle Tag: 226206

    - Dll exporting a function that creates MFC dialog is causing crash in MT. Hi I am facing a crash only in 2k with the following scenario . In XP and 98 this problem is not observed In my scenario I have X.exe, Y.dll. Y.dll exports a function (say Z) which has DoModal() of a dialog called. X.exe on click of a button starts a thread and in that thread calls the Z method which shows up a dialog. The problem happens when the button is clicked thrice or more than thrice. The three dialogs are lauched in three threads and are shown. But if I try to move the dialogs, After some time a crash is seen, whcih occurs in a method of MFC42.dll. More information about the scenario is X.exe links Y.dll statically. X links MFC as a shared dll, where as Y.dll links the same as a static dll. I suspected module state change when the the control is going out of thread boundary to Dll. But the exported function already has AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState( )); as te first statement. Please let me know if any body faced the same problem before and point me towards the solution. Thanks Sre Tag: !gle Tag: 226202

    - Threads Hi, I want to create a thread and this thread should wait some messages and behave accordingly... Lets say I derived a class from CWinThread.. I think the execution point is determined by the function that will be passed as an argument to the AfxBeginThread function.. UINT MyThreadFunc(LPVOID lParam) CMyThread *myThread = (CMyThread *) AfxBeginThread(MyThreadFunc,NULL, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL,0,0); Now I want to post some messages to myThread by PostThreadMessage.. I have already defined message handlers for some user messages #define WM_USER_THREAD_UPDATE_PROGRESS (WM_USER+0x102) ON_MESSAGE(WM_USER_THREAD_UPDATE_PROGRESS, OnThreadUpdateProgress) it seems I will handle this messages into MyThreadFunc with GetMessage and PeekMessage and after TranslateMessage and DispatchMessage OR this messages will come to the PreTranslateMessage of CMyThread..(?) if I will handle messages in MyThreadFunc then the function will look like this.. UINT MyThreadFunc(LPVOID lParam) { while (GetMessage(...)) { //if message is destroy thread, then quit.. //else TranslateMessage(...) DispatchMessage(...) } } the syntax may not be correct.. but whose message pump GetMessage function gets messages? I mean if I had two thread with the same function, what will happen? I hope I can explain what i thought:) if preTranslateMessage gets the messages, the there will not need for MyThreadFunc, so it should wait until the thread is terminated???!

    - Inline methods Hi all, I have always defined inline methods for a class in a header file (either the header in which the method was declared, or in a separate one for the sake of more readable library headers). So I would end up with something like: ////// some_class.h ////// class SomeClass { void someInlineMethod() { // Do stuff } void someNormalMethod(); }; ////// some_class.cpp ////// #include "some_class.h" void SomeClass::someNormalMethod() { // Do more stuff } A while back, I came across some C++ code specifically for MSVC that actually defined methods in the .cpp file as inline, like so: ////// some_class.h ////// class SomeClass { void someInlineMethod(); void someNormalMethod(); }; ////// some_class.cpp ////// #include "some_class.h" inline void SomeClass::someInlineMethod() { // Do stuff } void SomeClass::someNormalMethod() { // Do more stuff } When I try to do this in MSVC.Net, I sometimes get a linking error saying something to the effect that the linker cannot find the method that I declared as inline (sorry, I don't have the exact error message in front of me). Other times, it works fine, although I don't know for sure that the method is actually being inlined. Can anyone shed some light as to the true way to define inline methods, preferrably in a platform-independent sort of way? Dave Tag: !gle Tag: 226158

    - Version Number Format Okay, I know that Microsoft, as a standard, uses the following format for version numbers (dotted quad notation): Major.Minor.Build.Revision (example 1.15.0015.0) Also, I know that often this version information is stored in a binary form in a double word, such as a REG_DWORD in the system registry. So, I have a helper class that reads either DWORDs or string representations of a version number and then provides checked access to either one of the four fields, Major, Minor, Build, or Revision, and finally allows you to read the whole version number as a string or DWORD. This is so that I can easily read in version info as a DWORD or string from the registry or a file and then do comparisons. To finalize everything, I'd like to make sure that I'm packing/unpacking my four fields into and out of the DWORD correctly. Does anyone know Microsoft's format? I know Build needs least 12 bits (from some version numbers I've seen) but I'm not sure on others. Any help appreciated.

I mean if I store ints in a container, serialize it and send it across the n/w(to a big endian env); would there be endian issues; would I have to do byte swapping? I heard that the stream operators >> and << do byte swapping internally. Kindly help. Thanks and Regards, M Shetty Tag: !gle Tag: 226126

    - clock_t clock(void); Good day all I need to benchmark some code on different machines, and compare their performance to the same routines run on an FPGA. What I use currently is the above routine (clock_t clock(void);) within a MFC framework. My question: Does the above routine return the exact amount of time required by the routine to complete by accessing an onboard clock? Should I try to get access to an onboard processor realtime clock? Any suggestions Thank you Tag: !gle Tag: 226124

    - recommended methode for allocating dynamic memory Hello everybody! what is the recommended methode for dynamically allocating memory? I plan to release it in the class-destructor. Thanks & Regards Tag: !gle Tag: 226114

If you can use !gle to dynamically view the value of GetLastError in code without actually having it in the code in WinDbg, is there any way you can use it in VC6 or VS.NET

What window do you type this into?

I'm not sure what !gle is
There is a GetLastError API you could use, which will return the Windows Error code. You could use ERRLOOK.EXE or the FormatMessage API to get the message

!gle
is what you can type into windbg.exe *when debugging* the program, just to
see it at that particular instance of debugging, not to actually use the
value in the code permanently.
It seems the thing to type is simply ERR, this is what I wanted to know.
