I recently started using a Logitech keyboard with several specific special keys - volume control, WWW, E-Mail, Mute, and so on, and they all work. So I'm wondering what it sends when I press them.
The keyboard did not require any special software - just plug it in and go. So I reason that the only thing it can send are keyboard keystrokes, since its a keyboard without host software.
I reason further that if I knew what it sends then I should be able to send the same thing by striking keys on the keyboard. In other words, regardless of what application is running, I should be able to send a sequence of keystrokes that will open up my e-mail client. Am I right?
Does anyone have an idea what's going on here?
Thanks folks..

I'm pretty sure there are key codes reserved for those special functions.
For instance, the code 198 (just an example) might tell Windows to open the default mail client.
Another tells it to open the default browser.
So it doesn't send key combinations, just certain key codes.

I do. You want to read this[^]. It's quite old, but the info is still current. Note that this only documents the standard keyboard device driver, used if you don't install any logitech drivers.
If you install the logitech drivers, the Logitech driver enables a lot more scan codes, and unfortunately, I have the impression that it also switches a number of these standard scan codes.

Thanks - especially for the link that explains the mystery.

Im in the CMainFrame class. I have a CFormView with many screens. In
CMainFrame, how can I get a pointer to my class so that I can access
variables in the CFormView. I have:
<br />
CListCtrl* CMainFrame::GetListCtrl1098()<br />
{<br />
CMyFormView *pView = NULL;<br />
<br />
CListCtrl* pmyListCtrl = &pView->m_list_1098;<br />
<br />
return pmyListCtrl;<br />
}<br />
But *pView is null and I get an error. How can I make
*pView attain access to its class and hence variables?
Please, any response any one can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,

You could try pView = GetActiveView();
You may be right
I may be crazy

The problem is, GetActiveView() returns something other than the
CMyFormView which has the listctrl that I want to attain.
Even if I try:
<br />
void CMainFrame::GetListCtrl()<br />
{<br />
CMyFormView *pView;<br />
<br />
CListCtrl* pmyListCtrl = NULL;<br />
<br />
if (pView)<br />
{<br />
AfxMessageBox("view active");<br />
<br />
pmyListCtrl = pView->m_list_ctrl;<br />
<br />
int total = pmyListCtrl->GetItemCount();<br />
<br />
CString s;<br />
s.Format("total = %i", total);<br />
AfxMessageBox(s);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
it doesnt work.
Please any response any one can give me will be greatly appreciated.

See my other reply; once again you are trying to use pView without initialising it to point to anything. I would suggest some further study in classes and objects.
It's time for a new signature.

Your code:
CMyFormView *pView = NULL;
CListCtrl* pmyListCtrl = &pView->m_list_1098;
will not work. You have set pView to NULL and then tried to use it as a pointer to a list control object. You may need to review the relationship between your classes.
It's time for a new signature.

Dear experts,
I want to design a graphical editor using Irrlicht engine!
my software is divided in to two parts. one user interface and second is a window which Irrlicht uses to draw
on it!
i want to use separate threads to avoid from interfering of GUI in Irrlicht drawing loop! now i need to know which kind of thread i should use for each one!(Worker and UI Threads)
i have used MFC platform!
void Irrlicht_Main_Process()
{
while(true)
{
Draw anythings here
}
return true;
}
Best regards

Creating a Worker Thread:
A worker thread is commonly used to handle backgrounds tasks
that the you shouldn't have to wait to continue using your application.
Creating a secondary thread is pretty easy task. There are only two steps:
Step 1. Create a function which will be executed by secondary thread.
This function has your code which suppose to executed in secondary thread.
UINT ProcName(LPVOID param)
{
{
Do Something
}
return 0;
}
Step 2. Create thread by calling MFC function AfxBeginThread.
AfxBeginThread( ProcName, param, priority );
This thread remains active as long as thread's function is executing.
When thread function exits, the thread is destroyed.
You can set thread priorities according to your requirement.

The nAvgBytesPerSec and nBlockAlign should be calculated:
out_wfx.nBlockAlign = out_wfx.nChannels * out_wfx.wBitsPerSample / 8;
out_wfx.AvgBytesPerSec = out_wfx.nBlockAlign * out_wfx.nSamplesPerSec;
out_wfx.nAvgBytesPerSec = out_wfx.nSamplesPerSec * out_wfx.nBlockAlign;

Currently using CreateFile and WriteFile functions.
I'm using
LARGE_INTEGER Position = Download->BytesDownloaded;
SetFilePointerEx(File, Position, NULL, FILE_END);
Keeps returning unable to convert _int64 to LARGE_INTEGER.
I read the structure of LARGE_INTEGER defined in WinNT.h.
Their is a LONGLONG declaration in it, but can't use it.

Fareed Rizkalla wrote: LARGE_INTEGER Position = Download->BytesDownloaded;
I suspect the error is there (BytesDownloaded) is long long or __int64.
Why pass the position anyway? If you are appending, just move the file pointer to the end of the file: SetFilePointer(File, 0, NULL, FILE_END);

I was using CFile in my project, although I resented everything MFC.
I rewrote the parts that were responsible to file output with WriteFile.
All of a sudden it stopped working without me changing anything in the code. When I wrote the code it was working now all of sudden it doesn't want to do what it's supposed to do.
HANDLE File;
File = CreateFile(LocalPathPFile, GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL, OPEN_ALWAYS | OPEN_EXISTING,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE | FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH, NULL);
WriteFile(File, Data, (DWORD)BytesReceived, NULL, NULL);
CloseHandle(File);

A lot of Windows functions provide error information; ignoring that is irresponsible and leads to mysteries such as the one you are facing now. Add proper error checking and handling to your code, and do it everywhere. Read the MSDN documentation on every Windows function you are using, and use GetLastError the way it should.

You instruct the CreateFile call to always open an existing file (and NEVER create one). Chances are that the file is deleted and the call to CreateFile is failing.
Also, API calls return a value for a reason - they let you know if something failed. Please check the documentation for these functions and check the return values (you may have to call GetLastError to find out what exactly went wrong).
