Right, but the OP is trying to catch WM_CREATE, which has occurred long before the first
DDX_Control() call.

Dear Sir:
I want to monitor a remote directory hosted on an FTP server to check up whether there are some newer files (compared with my local downloads) or not. If any, new files will be downloaded automatically.
I understand in the rough how to do that. Firstly, start a timer and periodically examine certain FTP remote folder through the use of CFtpFileFind member functions to check up whether there are some newer files (compared with my local downloads, but keeping a download timestamp may be a good idea) or not. But in case that the file is not completly written to the remote FTP folder, and at the same time my FTP monitor thread is going to be activated to do its checking job. How can I cope with this kind of "race condition" as ideal as possible?
BTW, any recommendations to the source codes concerned either free or commercially available are highly appreciated. Any suggestions are heartily welcome!
Thank you!

Firstly if there's another way other than polling the server I suggest you take it, kinder to the server.
With regards to your problem, why don't you check back (the next day or something) once a new file has been "discovered" and compare sizes, if the two are the same then you can download the file, if not wait another day and compare again to see if it's not growing anymore.

Dear Poore:
Thank you for your kind advice. I know polling the FTP server is not a good idea. My system must frequently check up the FTP server because some new data files will be put on the FTP server every 15 or 30 minutes. User can't wait any longer (not say wait until next day) because the successive production task will be carried out as earlier as possible. Our system is a time critical system.
Any suggestions? Could you kindly recommend any commercial or open source codes for me? Thank you again!

I just used the example of a day to keep from polling the servers too frequently. You could check the next time you poll, i.e. 15 minutes later. That way at worst it'll start 14 minutes late. Or you could set up something so that if and only if there's a new file detected then check only that file in a minutes time (depending on how fast you think files will be uploaded).

Have you considered ReadDirectoryChangesW() or FindFirstChangeNotification()?

Thank you for your suggestion. ReadDirectoryChangesW() or FindFirstChangeNotification function is usually used for watching local or UNC folder (\\computername\driveletter:\folder), not suitable for monitoring the remote folder on an FTP host running under Windows, Linux, Unix or other operating systems.
Thank you anyway!

I did not see this constraint in your initial post or I would have not suggested what I did. Periodic polling is your only recourse.

Hi,
I want to call a function on each line of code of my program. To achieve this, one way to is that I should call that function on each end of statement, but does there any event exist to do that, so that my function should be called automatically after end of each statement.
Best Regards,
Mushq

The GDIPlus function "GetPixel" can't deal with this kind image well, the value which get from "GetPixel" is from 0 to 255, it losts accuracy. How can I get its original value?
Any help appreciate.

Windows can't show a 48BPP image anyhow. But, you'll have to get a pointer to the bitmap data and iterate over it yourself, although, to be honest, for Windows to do anything with that image, it needs to modify it, because a windows bitmap simply doesn't have the room for 46 bits per pixel. So, it may not even be that in memory, it sure isn't that on your screen.

Once I used "LockBits" to get its memory pointer, I combine every six bytes as a pixel, but the value was very different from the true value which I get from matlab. It must have realtion with the picture's format. Maybe I have to use matlab engine to get the true value.
Thanks.

GDI+ 1.0 does not support LockBits() in PixelFormat48bppRGB (or any of the 64bpp formats).
I believe GDI+ 1.1+ supports it, but this is Vista+ only. I haven't tried it.

I'm trying to obtain the filelist for a directory tree.
A way is to redirect a dir command to a file and to read that file.
How can this be done in VC++ 6?

Instead of redirecting the output of a dir command, you can do the same thing directly in your program using FindFirstFile()[^] and FindNextFile()[^]. These are Windows API functions that you can use from VC6.

Actually, is not what I'm looking for. I need a function that is listing ALL the structure, including what the subfolders amd sub-subfolders, ..., and so on ... do contain. To avoid recursively use of findfirst, findfnext pair and to obtain all the list into a single step.
Is there anything like this in VC++6?

Yes, it is. Gary's suggestion still applies whether you want one level or multiple levels.

You can use of DlgDirList for get list of files and folders but for subfolders you need to a loop and use of these functions.
