Re: should I use the thread or the timer?

Since the background operation have to be done in every 3 minutes, timer is inevitable. Your real concern is - which one to use? "Simple mfc message timer" or "thread + timer"? Well, my suggestion is, if your background operation is time consuming, go for Thread+Timer, or else simple WM_TIMER message will do, since it won't block the GUI.

CProgressCtrl for 64-bit ints Hans Dietrich30-Oct-08 6:11 Hans Dietrich 30-Oct-08 6:11  Does anyone know of a wrapper to CProgressCtrl that accepts __int64 values? Best wishes, Hans [CodeProject Forum Guidelines] [How To Ask A Question] [My Articles] Re: CProgressCtrl for 64-bit ints PJ Arends30-Oct-08 6:29 PJ Arends 30-Oct-08 6:29  Seeing how the progress control can only show progress one pixel at a time, and the win32 progress bar control already has a range of 0 to 65535 (a short) which is way more than could ever possibly be shown on a display screen, creating a wrapper to accept __int64 values would be fairly simple. Just a little bit of division to get the number into the proper range. You may be right I may be crazy -- Billy Joel -- Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

The registry should be used for maintainig application settings (i.e. few data), not as application general data storage (i.e. big amount of data).

You can easily make a 'test' INI file, using, for instance the notepad, and then write to (or read from) programmatically. Check out one of the articles I linked in one of my previous replies to see (in the source files) some sample code.

Im using Visual Studio 2003..... Visual Studio 2008 supports CIniFile.... but the lower versions dont.... so is there any direct....or easy way to READ/WRITE INI file... Other than using the CIniFile code availabe in this forum???? Re: VC++ code to read and write to an INI file Doc Lobster30-Oct-08 23:29 Doc Lobster 30-Oct-08 23:29  You must redirect the CWinApp application data storage from the registry to your ini file. See the MSDN documentation on CWinApp::m_pszRegistryKey and CWinApp::m_pszProfileName. By freeing m_pszRegistryKey and setting m_pszProfileName to an appropiate path you will be able to use CWinApp::GetProfileString CWinApp::GetProfileInt CWinApp::WriteProfileInt CWinApp::WriteProfileString on an ini file instead of the registry. When I switched my application to use an .ini file, this took me a while to find out. However, it's not likely we are the first people to face this issue ... there must be an example somewhere.
