IF you just want to block the current thread till the other thread completes why use threads??
You can just call the function
UINT iRet = StartUpdateUIThread(_param);
I hope it helps..
I think you did not like my opinion

What does it mean? Even WaitForSingleObject will block the current executing thread(Main Thread).
BTW MSDN Says
The WaitForSingleObject function checks the current state of the specified object. If the object's state is nonsignaled, the calling thread enters the wait state until the object is signaled or the time-out interval elapses.

Try something like this:
CWinThread *pThread = AfxBeginThread(&StartUpdateUIThread, _param, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL, 0, CREATE_SUSPENDED);
ASSERT(pThread);
HANDLE hThread;
VERIFY(DuplicateHandle(GetCurrentProcess(), *pThread, GetCurrentProcess(), &hThread, 0, FALSE, DUPLICATE_SAME_ACCESS));
pThread->ResumeThread();
WaitForSingleObject(hThread, INFINITE);
CloseHandle(hThread);
It's probably a good idea to wrap all this mess in a helper function.

::AfxBeginThread() does not return a handle that can be used for waiting. It returns a pointer to a CWinThread object.
ptr_Electron wrote: but dosn't wait for the thread to complete
If you would have bothered to check the return value from ::WaitForSingleObject() you would have found that the operation failed. A call to ::GetLastError() would most likely return ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE. To omit the validation of the return value is just sloppy.
A few days ago you had almost the same question regarding the same problem, which I replied to here[^].
I suggested an article that would explain all this and teach you how to do it the right way. If you would have bothered to read the article, this question would not have been necessary. I can see that you now use ::AfxBeginThread() instead of ::_beginthreadex(), but that's not enough.
Read the article here[^].

Why?
Do you think you're getting some benefit from having a second thread
used that way?
That sure is a complicated way to do single threaded programming.

Hi All,
I wanted to use NET API in my MFC application, since this was new to me I started out with a simple application listed below
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "myapp.h"
#using <mscorlib.dll>
#using <system.dll>
using namespace System;
// The one and only application object
CWinApp theApp;
using namespace std;
int _tmain(int argc, TCHAR* argv[], TCHAR* envp[])
{
int nRetCode = 0;
// initialize MFC and print and error on failure
if (!AfxWinInit(::GetModuleHandle(NULL), NULL, ::GetCommandLine(), 0))
{
// TODO: change error code to suit your needs
_tprintf(_T("Fatal Error: MFC initialization failed\n"));
nRetCode = 1;
}
else
{
// TODO: code your application's behavior here.
Console::WriteLine("This is a MFC app using NET API");
}
return nRetCode;
}
Till few days back I was able to successfully compile and run this simple application using VC++ 2005 with SP1, however now when I am trying to compile the application I am getting the following error
1>.\myapp.cpp(45) : error C3666: 'System::Security::IEvidenceFactory::IEvidenceFactory' : override specifier 'new' not allowed on a constructor
1> This diagnostic occurred while importing type 'System::Security::IEvidenceFactory ' from assembly 'mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.

1> This diagnostic occurred while importing type 'System::Console ' from assembly 'mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.
The MSDN documentation is not very helpful on the error message and also the fact that I am new to NET arena so I really do not understand what went wrong.
In the last few days I have installed DotNET framework 2.0 SP1 on my machine and many other applications required by my project so it is difficult for me to go back to pre 2.0 SP1 configuration.
Does someone no what is this error? And how do I get rid of this.
Thanks and Regards

You cannot use the .NET framework from a native application (MFC, C, C++, whatever).
If you want to use applications that exploit the features of .NET framework, then you will need to write code in one of those managed languages (C#, VB.NET, CLI/C++)

You can make a dll and use of it on the c++ or vice versa.

what do you think the docs[^] are for ???

Use CreateProcess if you want more control over process being spawned
Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

What does RPC or MIDL has to do here?  You want to learn RPC or just run an executable?
If you need to run an executable, you just need ShellExecute or CreateProcess as someone already said.

Reason is here[^]. Check whether you've defined your _STORAGE_BUS_TYPE more than once.

error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'PSTORAGE_DEVICE_DESCRIPTOR'
[/code]
so plz help me
|
|

|

From MSDN[^], i found STORAGE_DEVICE_DESCRIPTOR is declared in header file - Ntddstor.h. So check whether you've included it or not.
Regards,
Jijo.
