Not responding in task bar icon

Hi,

I have an simple MFC single document application(e.g TestApp). When application stop working for little time it shows in task bar icon not responding(i.e TestApp(NotResponding)). If I go in TaskManeger then I can find that status of my application is not responding.

Then after some little time my application again runs normally but task bar icon still shows not responding(i.e TestApp(NotResponding)) though it was supposed to show only application name (i.e TestApp).I can verify that application is running normally by seeing the status in TaskManeger.The name in TaskBar Icon remains until I exit from application.

In short I want the the application name only in task bar icon when application returns to normal state. Can anybody help me out?

Thanks:-

Mike

Your app is doing some extreme processing? Maybe you need to pump windows messages periodically
so the system knows your app is alive Smile | :)

Assuming you're not stuck in a thread deadlock or endless loop, you can do something like this
periodically (PumpMessage() is in CWinThread class):

MSG msg;
while (::PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_NOREMOVE)) 
{ 
    if (!PumpMessage()) 
    { 
        ::PostQuitMessage(0); 
        break; 
    } 
}

Is your app really working that hard? Smile | :)

Doesn't putting a "\n" in the string being displayed do the same. Sniff | :^)

No...
I want to do it through my code.
If the Text size is greater than the static control size, i need to split the text in to two line.
Hope you understand my requirement.

Actually adding \n is the correct method. If it's not working, then you're not doing it correctly.

It depends on the style of your static control. SS_SIMPLE will will display the text on a single line with no wrapping. SS_LEFT, SS_CENTER, and SS_RIGHT will automatically break the string and wrap the text to the next line.

I have (what I believe to me) a rather novel way to do it. I will let you know if it works when I re-release InstaLock again... Smile | :)

This hides the window.
You can use
pParent.ShowWindow(SW_MINIMIZE);

Is that the actual code?

If so, you're creating a local window class object, and hiding it. You're not hiding the parent window at all, since that object isn't the parent window
