so, it doesn't even stop at the first WaitForSingleObject(doneMutex,..) ?
|
|
|
|
|
Should it wait at the first WaitForSingleObject( doneMutex, INFINITE )?
I intended for main() to lock the mutex at the first call. Then create all threads and have the last thread release it. The 2nd WaitForSingleObject( doneMutex... is where main() is supposed to wait on the last thread to exit.
Obviously I am not doing it right, I am open to suggestions. I also tried semaphores, same problem.

you could try Events.
1. create an Event object (just like creating a Mutex) in your main
2. launch your threads
3. WaitForSingleEvent on the Event in main()
4. SetEvent from the worker thread, when done. that will let your Wait* return.
5. CloseHandle to clean up the Event

You might have better luck using WaitForMultipleObjects (MSDN). Make an array of your thread handles and pass that into WaitForMultipleObjects with the bWaitAll parameter set to TRUE.
That will be cleaner and much easier to debug than working with a Mutex in this case.

MFC CDatabase and CRecordset (ODBC baby!). but that's because I don't know any better. 
I'm one of those stubborn mules who is usually the last on on the bus so don't take my advise but feel free to contemplate it all you want. (Disclaimer for the person who will follow my post with "why not just use ADO?")

Hi all
I am doing Win32 based C programming.
How to use _TrackMouseEvent to track mouse movement over a button. ie, I need one signal when mouse moves over the button and another one when it moves away from the button
I am calling _TrackMouseEvent in WM_INITDIALOG message handler...like this
track.cbSize = sizeof(TRACKMOUSEEVENT);
track.dwFlags = TME_HOVER;
track.hwndTrack = handle; // Handle to the Button
track.dwHoverTime = HOVER_DEFAULT;
_TrackMouseEvent(&track);
Then, I am not getting WM_MOUSEHOVER message.
I am not getting how to use these functions.
Any kind of suggestions are welcome..thanks

I think the TrackMouseEvent function is to be used only when you receive a WM_MOUSEMOVE message for your button. Therefore try this function in OnMouseMove handler of your button. (I suppose you have to derive your own control from CButton). After this you should be able to receive WM_MOUSEHOVER and WM_MOUSELEAVE messages inside your button class.
I hope it helps.

I am trying to create a client that connects to a server on TCP port 80. The connect() is successful. I can also send and receive some packets successfully. After I send a few packets recv() returns error WSAECONNRESET. If I use any port other than port 80 the same problem does not happen. Any ideas on why this could be happening?

The server is more and likely hanging up on you as you are violating the http protocol. Web servers work best by handling lots of little transactions for many people quickly, if you are debuging it might be timing out on you.

Thanks for replying. I am not using http web server. It's my own server which listens and accepts connections on port 80!

lol - well, first, don't use 80.... that port is expected to talk to a web server at the given ip address. I know, I know, it's your machine, but it's bad form  .
Now, the part that makes me chuckle is that *your* server is sending this response... Usually, the server is some box out in the network cloud that you have 0 control over. So I'd take a look at what the server is not happy about. I'd guess you are not completely transferring all the data, but it's just a guess.

MS MSDN says that a pattern bitmap brush larger than 8x8 pixels can be created by LOGBRUSH and CreateBrushIndirect on Win98.
My purpose is to fill a rectangle using the pattern brush.
but as I tested, the rectangle is not filled on Win98 because the pattern brush is not created properly.
have u used larger patten brush on Win98?

I think you first have to create your pattern brush using CreatePatternBrush function. MSDN says that in Windows 98 brushes can be created from bitmaps larger than 8 by 8 pixels.

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me the exact "Difference between C++ Structures and C++ Classes".
I came to know that, apart from the access specifier Public(Structures) and Private(Classes) there is no other difference. Is that so?
In that case why do they have 2 difference entities namely Structure and Classes with similar functionality??
Kindly clarify.
|
|
|
|
|
I guess people who created C++ like the name "class".

'struct' allows for backwards-compatibility with C
edit: what about this deserves a '1' vote?

Then why class were created?? struct itself is enough ..na?

but c++ structure can have visibility declarators (public, protected, private), and member functions too..

that's why i explicitely said C structs, not C++...

So you deliberatly set him on a wrong track? 
Not very nice...

Absolutly totaly not.
Out modern C++ is derived from a old version of K&R-C by people with a deep understanding of and a great liking for C.
But C is in no way a subset of C++.
In many cases C++ can be considered a superset of C, but not in all.
And IMHO you really *should* not know too much of C to write good style C++.
toxcct wrote: C structs are different from C++ structs
Yes.
But C-structs were not what we others were talking about, and you were introducing them in a way carefully crafted as to not draw the attention.

yes it is. Read Bjarne Stroustrup about this.

agreed, and i never said the opposite.

i only talked about them because only introduced their purpose into the C++ language : compatibility
