Try this in the UI handler for the menu item.

I dont know if there is a option to enable or diable that setting but you can do that manually.
In the project settings, under the link tab, There is a edit box called as Project Options, in that box add /NOENTRY with the other options similarly you add any other linker options.

how to implement a time delay?

ewighell6-Jan-06 17:12

6-Jan-06 17:12

In my program I am calling a funtion which will employ the clipboard. the copy and paste process must be finished before the following codes are excuted, or errors will occur.
So I would like to program a delay after that function is called and before excuting the following codes.
Of course I can use the "for" loop, like "for(int i =1; i<=1000; i++){}" .
But, is there another way to make the program just pause and do nothing so that my program will not take too much resources of CPU and memory?
or is there any way to determine wether the clipboard thing has been completed?

Thank you very much!!!

You could just sleep the thread for a few seconds.

Sleep(1000);

1000 being in milliseconds, i.e. Sleep(1000) = sleep for one second.

I thought it would work, but it dose not, neither does the for loop.
my code is like the following:

pCtrlCopyDef->Excute(); //this funciton call get the thing to be copied onto the clipboard.
pSketch->Edit();//this statement cause my program get into a sketch environment, 
                //which is the required environment to perform pasting.
pCtrlPasteDef->Excute();//this function call paste the thing on the clipboard onto        
                        //the destination sketch

//////////////////////////////
//sections I have problems in:
AfxMessageBox(_T("Exit?"));//every thing is OK with this line of code. I click the OK button 
                    //on the pop-up message box and I will see the expected result finally.
//Sleep(2000); // if i substitute this line for the preceding one, I can't see the     
                 //anything pasted on the destination sketch.
//for(int i = 1; i<100000; i++){} //can't see anything either. 
////////////////////////////

pSketch->ExitEdit();// this funtion call cause the program exit the sketch environment.

I have worked on it for quite a long time and got nothing fixed. could you please help me analyze it and find a way out?

Thank you very much!!!

Are you redrawing your device context? Maybe the stuff is being pasted on there but you're just not drawing it.

I am programming with the API of Autodesk Inventor, which is a CAD software. so the calling of the clipboard functionality is hidden behind those API function.

But are you actually redrawing the device context that holds the pasted sketch? Maybe it's being pasted but you're just not re-drawing it.

I am just calling the command provided by the Autodesk Inventor and I can't got the state infomation of the device context.
In addition. I can get the relative objects through API if the paste succeeds, but I got nothing, indicating that the paste failed

More detail would help, but if I had to guess:
It works with the AfxMessageBox call but not with the Sleep call. This suggests the operation needs a message pump running.
