When you say a process, there is a main thread in the process.
The main thread creates thread-a.
The thread-a needs to communicate to the main thread to create the other thread.
You can do this using events.
Create an event in the main thread using CreateEvent.
The main thread can then wait for the event to be signaled using WaitForSingleObject.
The other threads can then use SetEvent to signal this event.
If your main thread is a UI thread, you will need another dedicated thread to wait for the event to become signaled so that the UI thread is not blocked.
But I believe PostThreadMessage is a better way to do this.
If your process has a window, you can also use PostMessage to the main window to achieve this.

I find 2 group of raw socket functions, one is basic kind, another one starts with WSA..., such as accept() and WSAAccept().
I am wondering that if second group (WSA...) is just implemented from basic group to offer some user-convenience, or it is rebuilt with more efficient functionalities?
in raw socket, which group is better from send-receive communication view (i.e. speed)?

The WSA functions are the Windows Socket 2 implementation, and just offer some enhanced functionality. They are all described in the MSDN documentation[^]. As far as I am aware the differences in implementation are unlikely to affect the speed.

Named IP is in english characters, such as "www.hello.abc.efg" - how to convert it to digital IP, such as "196.23.72.90"?
my usage is for raw socket, I did a test, the function inet_addr(...) can change only digital IP address, correct?
|

You're going to want to look into DNS lookups, which change human readable URLs, e.g. www.codeproject.com (what you've called a named IP, which isn't strictly correct) in to IP Adresses (what you've called digital IP).
|
|
|
|
|
you are right, named and digital IPs are defined by myself, I don't know how to call them.

The former is referred to as the host name while the latter is referred to as as IP dotted address. To get one from the other, you can use gethostbyname() and gethostbyaddr(). Both, however, have been deprecated by getnameinfo().

We can use PostMessage() to post integer to HWND if a window handle is valid, but how to post a message to a class object if without HWND?
The story looks like:
MyClass my;
void MyClass::Send()
{
post_message(100);
}
void MyClass::Receive()
{
switch(...)
{
case 100:
....
break;
}
}
how to implement the user function post_message(100)?

You have to build (or use and existing) communication path between the two objects. Do both objects exist in the same application and thread, or are these disconnected objects?
|
|
|
|
|
They are in same app, sender is in a thread, receiver is in main process - not in thread.
Any more info to implement?

I am not sure if this is an answer to your question but take a look at PostThreadMessage[^], you do not need to have a window for that, only a message queue in the given thread. You could use that + somekind of mechanism to route the incoming message to the correct instances, like have some identifier or handle in the wParam and the sent integer in the lParam, then on the receiving side you use wParam to identify the instance and call some member function feeding it lParam. Be careful with posting because it might happen that the targeted object gets destroyed before the message arrives and then when you try to call the method of the destroyed instance you get a crash. This of course depends on the implementation. Good luck.

I agree, this seems the optimum solution.

Also you can internally have the code for things you wanted to do in the handler))rather than posting athread message. Doing this everry active window will recieve this message but since only your application has has handled that message you will be able to get the desired functionality
That doesn't make any sense at all.

Will you stop behaving like a child? I don't care about low votes, but not on a programming forum. Because that counts against my contributions here. Your answer was completely senseless, so how about answering only those queries that you have some clue about?
And how about accepting it when someone says you are wrong, instead of acting like a coward and low-voting them? For the record, yes, I just had to mark your answer as "Bad Answer".
You repeat this nonsense and I know where to take it.

But that was really harsh from your side  .. You could have asked first that was it by mistake or I did it intentionally .
Anyways , I think now the misunderstanding will perish .Thanks for guiding me .

Well, there's no 'harshness' - I just had to express my opinion on your act.
And I'm not sure you had to mark a reply to *you* (which isn't an answer to the OP) as good or bad. Especially, given that there are no "Good Answer" or "Bad Answer" buttons and that you have to specifically click on a number... Now I see it's changed to 5.
However, I'm over it and please don't call me "Sir".
Thank you!

Derive that class from CWinThread. This will provide the class with a message pump and message mapping mechanism, and then you could use PostThreadMessage to post a message to it (actually to the thread). Have a message map entry added for all the messages of your interest.

Using shared memory might be another way to do what you want to implement.

You need a PDF library or writer; try Google, there are many options available.

Hi
I am a newbie in MFC and VC++. I have a tab dialog application with five edit boxes expecting user entry. Everything works fine till the application is in focus. Once the application goes out of focus and comes back the edit boxes refuse to accept the key inputs from the user.
I will explain the procedure in which I found the issue: Application is running and user inputs numbers into the edit box - here it works. User presses Win key + D to show desktop. Application disappears since there is no task bar icon for the application, we need to restore any other window (of any other application) available and minimise it to make my application visible. This is also not desirable but then the edit boxes no longer accept the key inputs. Once i minimise the application to tray and restore, then everything works fine. I need to fix this two issues
I am not sure where to look for a bug in the code. Please help
Sorry for the long problem description.
Thanks in advance
Deepak
PS:
1. I have a pre translate message function to filter out ESC and ENTER key to avoid closing the application by these keys.
2. It has a hidden dialog to avoid showing up in the taskbar area while the application is visible in desktop.
3. It is a tray residing application.
4. All these 3 functionality codes are from CP articles. Is there chance of having an issue in these codes?
