No, no, no - each thread will have its own random number generator state - it's held inside the C run-time library (look at rand.c in the C run-time source). Even though you have one toolbox object, that's immaterial, because your object doesn't hold the random number state.

The call to srand() will only effect the thread on which the toolbox object is constructed. The other threads will get some default random number generator state initialisation.

Your best bet would be to use a different PRNG - for example, one of the implementations included in Boost[^], where (as you have full control over the PRNG including the data it uses) you could ensure that you have a single state for ALL threads. Of course, you'd then need to put a lock on the random number acquisition function (to ensure only one thread calls it at once)...

Okay. That´s good to know Smile | :)

I´ll look into Boost. And sure thing about the lock ... I would have taken care of that later on, anyway.

Thanks for now

Hi,

How can i capture a Message/notification from a Child control which is again a child of another window. Window->Child->Child1. My question is how can i capture Child1's message in Window?

for me Window is the parent window of the application,
Child is a tab control,
Child1 is aedit control.

Get Child to re-send Child1 messages to window?

Put in a WM_NOTIFY handler for Child1 in Child and forward all of those messages to Window. Add a WM_NOTIFY handler for Child in Window. Look at the hwndFrom member of the NMHDR part of the notification message to see which window originally sent the message.

A message loop is the same irrespective of whether it is for a parent window or a child window or a window in another thread.

Let me descrip my problem more precisely:

Window->Childwindow(Tab control)->ChildWindow1(edit control).

In windows message loop

{
case WM_NOTIFY:
{
switch(nmhdr->idFrom)
{
case IDC_MAIN_TREEVIEW: //childwindow's Id
switch(nmhdr->code)
{
//I am expeccting notify messages from ChildWindow1?
}

}

}
}

Please let me know weather i am doing correctly.?

Do you mean in the message loop or in the WNDPROC for Window (I think it's the second one).

birajendu wrote:

No - they get sent to the Tab control - which has a different WNDPROC. You need to subclass it so that you can process the window messages sent to it. See the message I previously posted about subclassing windows.

The message loop will handle all windows created on the thread it's in (a simplification, but close enough).

To modify the behaviour of the child windows, you need to subclass them, to handle messages sent to them differently than the default. I would suggest you read up about window subclassing - this[^] is a good starting point.

For example, to subclass a tab control created in your topmost window, you might use this to create and then subclass the control.

RECT rcCLient;
GetClientRect(hWnd, &rcCLient);
hwndTab = CreateWindow(WC_TABCONTROL, _T("tab"), WS_VISIBLE|WS_CHILDWINDOW, 0, 0, rcCLient.right, rcCLient.bottom, hWnd, 0, hInst, 0);
oldTabProc = (WNDPROC)::SetWindowLongPtr(hwndTab, GWLP_WNDPROC, LONG_PTR(&TabWndProc));

This next code fragment is my definition of a window procedure for the tab control that will forward notifications from an edit control contained inside it to the tab control's parent window. It's a bit evil, 'cause it uses a global for the tab control's old WNDPROC, but it illustrates the point.

WNDPROC oldTabProc;
LRESULT CALLBACK TabWndProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
   if (message == WM_COMMAND && HWND(lParam) == hwndEdit)
      return ::SendMessage(GetParent(hWnd), message, wParam, lParam);
   return oldTabProc(hWnd, message, wParam, lParam);
}

Try to be a little more explicit - what erroneous behaviour are you seeing with Telnet and FTP?

Even the action of getting into the telnet mode is failed.
The correct answer should be the following:
C:>telnet 127.0.0.1
Telnet>
Telnet>

But mine is:
C:>telnet 127.0.0.1

C:>

Getting nothing!The same problem with ftp.
