Well, you could either ~~divide~~ multiply that result by 1000, or resolve to the notion that unless you have a RTOS, you aren't going to get any better than 15ms resolution.

Anyway he should multiply by 1000. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

You're right, moreover most digits are zeroes...Who cares? Big Grin | :-D

It doesn't, but I made that same suggestion to some chap a long time ago and he said it was what he needed. I guess three more zeros made all the difference.

Closing my C++ program when a specific window is closed

QueryPerformanceFrequency [^] / QueryPerformanceCounter [^] pair maybe interesting.

I have a HWND pointing to the window in question. Is there any way I can close down my program when the HWND is closed?

Thanks in advance Smile | :)

Use IsWindow(). If it returns 0, close your program.

The program while loop looks like this:

while ( GetMessage(&amp;msg, NULL, 0, 0) ) {
	if (IsWindow(hWnd) == 0) {
		//close program
	}
	if (!TranslateAccelerator(msg.hwnd, hAccelTable, &amp;msg)) 
	{
		TranslateMessage(&amp;msg);
		DispatchMessage(&amp;msg);
	}
}

So, IsWindow is not called until a message is received.

   if(!TranslateAccelerator(msg.hwnd, hAccelTable, &msg)) {
      TranslateMessage(&msg);
      DispatchMessage(&msg);
   }
   
   if(msg.message == WM_DESTROY && msg.hwnd == hWnd) {
      break; // Exit message pump and do whatever finalization that is needed
   }
}

Re: Closing my C++ program when a specific window is closed

Thanks, but the way I have the program set up is hWnd refers to a hidden window which allows me to get a system tray. hWndConsole refers to the console window (which is external to my program). I want to close hWnd when hWndConsole is closed.

Any ideas on how to do this? Sorry for the confusing post.

Thanks

Re: Closing my C++ program when a specific window is closed

Actually, I just got it to work. I made the hWndConsole the parent window of the hWnd, so whenever the hWndConsole is updated, the hWnd gets a message. Then I check if the hWndConsole exists.

Thanks for the help

I think you can try ExitProcess (); while closing that window.
NOTE :This function closes the total application

Alternatively, you can wait inside a thread on an infinite loop, checking for the window (HWND) existence on a regular-interval of your choice with the help of Sleep(nMilliSecs) + IsWindow() and do a PostQuitMessage() to your application's main window after the said window (HWND) is closed.

This way, you can avoid all the ugly manual message translation and pumping stuff.

Find Unique Combination Numbers from a pool list (combinations and permutations)

Re: Find Unique Combination Numbers from a pool list (combinations and permutations)

2-Apr-09 2:28

Hi,

I want from a list let's say A={1,2,3,4} with N elements, 4 in our case , to find the unique combinations for groups of K, where K=2,3...N

For example if N=4 and K=2 then the correct algorithm should output the following results

(1,2)
(1,3)
(1,4)
(2,3)
(2,4)
(3,4)

if N=4 and K=3 then it should output

(1,2,3)
(1,2,4)
(1,3,4)
(2,3,4)

and if N=4 and K=4 then

(1,2,3,4)

Can someone help me to do this without using STL Library ?

Regards

It looks like homerwork...I cannot provide you full code, I'd be flamed (there may be Mike around...). Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

What have you done so far?

Thank you for your reply.

Its not a homework. Its for a sport bet kind application.

Until now I have found all the permutations of the groups but I do not want for example 1234 is equal with 4321 and its not correct.

I need also to optimize the code so, in the same loop I can find all the K groups ie groups of 2 and groups of 3.

Can you help me ?

Thank you,

I think that this is what I want. I will try to convert your application to work with an array of numbers.

I pretty sure that it will work.

Full source code, I'm not using STL:

combinationsOf 0 _ = [[]]
combinationsOf _ [] = []
combinationsOf k (x:xs) = map ( x: ) (combinationsOf (k-1) xs) ++ combinationsOf k xs

OK, it's not C++, it's Haskell. I found it searching for "haskell combinations" on Google. I wonder how you could find C++ source code for the same...

Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p
