Why are you not using AfxBeginThread()?

Because it doesn't initialize for C libraries.
Will using AfxBeginThread() solve the problem? If so , I'll use it.

I do not know. You must use it, however, if you want threads to work with MFC.

How do you know this? If you looked at the MFC src you'd see that it does call "_beginthreadex" (look somewhere around line 415 in ThrdCore.cpp). Why do you keep claiming that it doesn't initialize the C libraries?
This sounds suspiciously like a rumor started on Slashdot.

In addition to DavidCrow's reply (yes, you should be using AfxBeginThread() for threads that use MFC),
you aren't showing any code that tells the thread to terminate. How are you handling that?

No that was removed as a security vulnerability with Service Pack 1.2.

No it still works as long as you use the safe string library on it.

Will using <code>AfxBeginThread()</code> solve the problem? If so , I'll use it.
Before the list destroys, it will wait until the filling thread finishes.

No, but if you don't use it you may have other problems. It's just the correct thing to do - there
are MFC initializations for the thread that may or may not affect your code.
followait wrote: Before the list destroys, it will wait until the filling thread finishes
So the thread just finishes by itself, right? You don't need to notify it?
If so, that's fine.
You may indeed have a problem blocking the control's UI thread while updating the control from another thread.
That's a good example of why manipulating controls/windows from multiple threads is generally a bad idea.
A couple ways you can fix it:
1) make the thread post notifications to the control's UI thread and let the UI thread manipulate the control.
2) pump messages while waiting for the thread to terminate (this is a bad idea, since the woker thread shouldn't
be updating the control after the control is destroyed).

What ? Why C, you aredoing plain C++ (if you have classes, it means you are writing C++ code).

If the thread doesn't know it has to finish, it will never finish. So, you need a way to tell the thread to finish (in general it is done by using a flag that you set to true).

just a question why you want list to destroy after filling it??

I put pictures into the list. The pictures are used as resouces by the application.
When a user close the application when the list is loading, it needs synchronizing.
|

My idea is so...
The user put the cursor on a phone number from any program in the computer.
He presses a Hot Key - and my program will dial the number.
How do I recognize the text the cursor is on...
If somebody can please bring a sample
Thanks a lot

I think the tech used by dictionary softwares that pick words from screen may help.

See if IAccessible::get_accValue() is of any help.

I did like this
<br />
if (SUCCEEDED(AccessibleObjectFromPoint(pt, &pacc, &vtChild)))<br />
{<br />
BSTR bsName = NULL;<br />
BSTR bsValue = NULL;<br />
pacc->get_accName(vtChild, &bsName);<br />
pacc->get_accValue(vtChild, &bsValue);<br />
}<br />
The question is - How do I get the place of the marker in a text box
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I think u need to use Text Capture GDI hook to get selected text from any application. The Word Web dictionary is using technique.
thanks

I've solved this problem months ago and I build an application doing exactly what you need!
Now for starters, how did I solved users choice for dialing the number from screen. I've notated that user must select something (he can select the whole screen for what I'm concern) then I send commands to simulate CTRL+C action, this forces to copy all selected to an a clipboard. It is easy to get selected data from clipboard, then parse for telephone numbers.
At the time I was furious and was google-ing all kind of forums for accessibility and other stuff. Getting sick only remembering!
Now I'm hoping this helps you a bit, feel free to replay me!
P.S.
For me the key thing was introducing the 'select what you want to dial', I could not seem to find another way for achieving my gold at the time!
