Get a stopwatch and time how long it takes for APIFuncA() to run. From your symptoms it looks like the thread's exiting before APIFuncA() has run to completion.
I'd try simplifying your code - all that mucking about with Windows messages and threads is enough to give anyone a headache. How do you know that APIFuncA() has completed? There must be some indication somewhere.
Cheers,

Thanks for the reply.
The problem which I occurred is about APIFuncB(), not APIFuncA()
Accroding to the document, APIFuncA() returns an int value.
And does't need any waiting mechanism on APIFuncA().
But about APIFuncB(), the document only mentioned two points.
1 : APIFuncB() is asynchronous. When I call APIFuncB(), I must wait for PostThreadMessage of API.
And the message which API sent is SUCCESS_MSG and ERROR_MSG .
When I received the SUCCESS_MSG, I can call the subsequent API functions to do next steps.
2 : The timeout value of APIFuncB() is 1 second, so it suggest the timeout value in my program is 2 seconds.
And the document doesn't describe how to implement the waiting mechanism. I must implement by myself.
That's why I use SetTimer()、WaitPostThreadMessage()、TimerFunc() to implement the waiting mechanism.
Based on my code which posted in this article thread, I think that when I call APIFuncB(),
the created thread is still running, not ended.
Is my thought wrong ?

Hi
I'm creating a 3D app which the main purpose for it is to be a game engine renderer. The file format that I will use for geometry is the RAW Triangle, since it is very simple to understand. I've created a function able to read the entire 3d file and parse it to a IDirect3DVertexBuffer9. Things are going fine here, but the problem is when it becomes rendered. I'm not getting the full object rendered, it seems that file is corrupted.

Without seeing the code it is hard to know, but when you issue the call from your VertexBuffer are you setting the size and stride values correctly?

By the way I'm using Blender 2.49a for exporting the geometry files
Here
HRESULT load_RAW(const char *fname, IDirect3DVertexBuffer9 **buffer, int *count)

HRESULT hr = E_FAIL;
FILE *f = fopen(fname, "r");
if(f)
{
(*count) = 0;
float tmp[3] = {0};
while(fscanf(f, "%g %g %g", &tmp[0], &tmp[1], &tmp[2]) == 3)(*count)++;
rewind(f);
HUD_VERTEX vert[(*count)];
memset(vert, 0, sizeof(vert));
for(int i = 0; i < (*count); i++)
{
fscanf(f, "%g %g %g", &(vert[i].x), &(vert[i].y), &(vert[i].z));
if(ferror(f))
{
fclose(f);
return hr;
}
}
fclose(f);
int byteLen = sizeof(vert);
hr = g_device->CreateVertexBuffer(byteLen, D3DUSAGE_WRITEONLY, HUD_VERTEX_fvf, D3DPOOL_MANAGED, buffer, NULL);
if(FAILED(hr))return hr;
void *ptr = NULL;
hr = (*buffer)->Lock(0, 0, &ptr, 0);
if(FAILED(hr))return hr;
memcpy(ptr, vert, byteLen);
hr = (*buffer)->Unlock();
if(FAILED(hr))return hr;
}
fclose(f);
return hr;
}
And here
HRESULT Device_Render(IDirect3DVertexBuffer9 *buffer, int count)
{
HRESULT hr = D3D_OK;
hr = g_device->Clear(0, NULL, D3DCLEAR_TARGET, D3DCOLOR_COLORVALUE(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0), 0.0, 0);
if(FAILED(hr))return hr;
hr = g_device->BeginScene();
if(FAILED(hr))return hr;
g_device->SetFVF(HUD_VERTEX_fvf);
g_device->SetStreamSource(0, buffer, 0, sizeof(HUD_VERTEX));
g_device->DrawPrimitive(D3DPT_TRIANGLESTRIP, 0, count);
g_device->EndScene();
g_device->Present(NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);
}

I have never looked at the RAW output from Blender, and without compiling this only one thing "jumps" out at me....
g_device->DrawPrimitive(D3DPT_TRIANGLESTRIP, 0, count);
Are you sure that Blender is outputting a Triangle Strip or a list of triangles?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Triangle_Strip_Small.png[^]
In this example a Triangle strip would be vertexes A, B, C, D, E, F.
But a list of triangles would be:
A,B,C, C,B,D, E,C,D, F,E,D
You can see how incorrectly sending the right destination from one to the other could render with bizarre results....

Blender is outputting a strange kind of list of triangles. For instance, a circle, it seems that Blender is outputting a triangle fan.

Then you will need to define this as a triangle fan for display....

I think that I've found the solution for my problem here.
|
|
|
|

The RAW Triangle Format is parsed by reading lines, not individual values. That was what I didn't know.
|
|
|
|
|
congrats on finding it! I never worked with raw, we use other model formats.

By the way, which formats do you use?
|
|
|
|

3dStudio, OpenFlight... Mostly
basically everything supported by open scene graph.
I haven't written my own loader for years.

Hey, i just wanted to ask if theres a way i can read the data of a file so i can paste it to another file?
Like i read the data of cmd.exe and paste it to whatever.exe?
|
|
|
|
|
Please be clear what you are asking.

cmd.exe is not a file to be read from, it's an executable.
I know the language. I've read a book. - _Madmatt

|

Executables are files though
|
|
|
|

and an ice cube is water. What's your point?

|

That it's fine to read from cmd.exe, it's just unusual
|
|
|
|

I believe we are going to need more details about what you want to do...till now it sounds like you either want to read file data to the clipboard to paste it somewhere OR you need a filecopy method (like copy in a dos prompt).

I want to create a program out of a program.
We all have a cmd.exe in our windows folder, how would i be able to create the cmd.exe out of my own program?
|

What would your program do?

Are you asking how to find executable code inside a program and copy it to another file, in order to run it?
If so, you have to learn the structure of the program.
