You could send the win32 app a message and a message handler to it. There are several tutorials on IPC in CP, just take a look at those.

Can Someone help I am not sure whats wrong.

I am getting the following debug message:
First-chance exception at 0x5d0c373e in Capture Data.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x0043454c.

However on exit I get:
The program '[1284] Capture Data.exe: Native' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
Here is the code I have used:

BOOL CCaptureDataApp::InitInstance()
{
InitCommonControls();
CWinApp::InitInstance();
CCaptureDataSheet sheet("My Very Own Property Sheet App",NULL,0);
sheet.m_psh.dwFlags |= PSH_NOAPPLYNOW;//hide apply button
m_pMainWnd=&sheet;
INT_PTR nResponse=sheet.DoModal();
return FALSE;

In the Capture Data Sheet

IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC(CCaptureDataSheet, CPropertySheet)
CCaptureDataSheet::CCaptureDataSheet(UINT nIDCaption, CWnd* pParentWnd, UINT iSelectPage)
	:CPropertySheet(nIDCaption, pParentWnd, iSelectPage)
{
	AddPage(&m_Page01);
	AddPage(&m_Page02);
}

CCaptureDataSheet::CCaptureDataSheet(LPCTSTR pszCaption, CWnd* pParentWnd, UINT iSelectPage)
	:CPropertySheet(pszCaption, pParentWnd, iSelectPage)
{
	AddPage(&m_Page01);
	AddPage(&m_Page02);
}

CCaptureDataSheet::~CCaptureDataSheet()
{
}
BOOL CCaptureDataSheet::OnInitDialog()
{
	BOOL bResult = CPropertySheet::OnInitDialog();
}

I don't know why you get that exception but try turning on "Break into debugger on exceptions" in Visual Studio, it might show you where exactly the exception gets thrown. (In VS2003 it's under Debug->Exceptions in the menu)

This is where i am stuck in the debgugger. Not sure whats happening?

BOOL AFXAPI AfxDeactivateActCtx(DWORD dwFlags, ULONG_PTR ulCookie)
{	
	BOOL rc = pfnDeactivateActCtx != 0 ? pfnDeactivateActCtx(dwFlags, ulCookie) : FALSE;
	return rc;
}

Why would it exit with a 0 if I haven't changed anything else in the code?
Would it not give me a memory leak or something?

This article states to ignore the return value from the CPropertySheet Class, unless I mis-understood it.

Does that mean I ignore the exception as well?

I am sorry I am not trying to be a pain. This is frustratung me...
Here is what I did...Any suggetions...
On a different machine i went down in versions..from 2008-2005-and finally to VStudio 6.
I used the same steps in all ..I got the same exception error except in Vstudio 6..Where I got no exception error...Imported the same project into my Visual Studio 2008 and it works fine...No First-chance error.

I am not sure what to do?...Well for now I can work with this imported project...but is this really a solution?...I have come to the end of the rope on this one...If I did something wrong, would VStudio 6 not complain as well?

Do you think you can advice me as what to do? I don't like to give up, at the sametime I don't want to be hitting my head if it is a bug in VStudio 2008?

I can't see me to be the only one trying or using the property sheet based application?

Thanks, I will really appreciate some sort of feed back, I am new at this and it's frustrating me..Please advice.

Is it possible that maybe all your project needed was a complete rebuild?

Yes, i am just clueless how importing the very same project from 6.0 would solve your problem...
So you say the exception is thrown from AfxDeactivateActCtx? I supose that the pfnDeactivateActCtx pointer is pointing at something it shouldn't be. Can you maybe try to track down where this gets a value assigned? Maybe whatever it is pointing at gets destroyed somewhere and then the pointer is not NULL-ed out...

const in class as a member variable?

Is it possible to declare member variable of class as a const, if yes,please give me 1 example how to initialize it and if not, why?

Re: const in class as a member variable?

Cedric Moonen23-Jul-09 3:47

Yes, it is possible. You have to initialize it in the constructor initialization list:

MyClass::MyClass() : myConstInt(5) 
{
}

You can also initialize it in the header file too, when declaring it:

class MyClass 
{
   const int myConstInt = 5;
}

This is working fine

 MyClass::MyClass() : myConstInt(5) 
{
}

but it is not possible,

class MyClass 
{
   const int myConstInt = 5;
}

compiler is giving error,

So I guess only one way to initialize const in a class..

Ooops, my bad. I don't use that notation very often. I thought it was ok but it is only valid if the member is static also.

from above discussion I have come to conclusion that compiler does not allow
any type of initialization in class, so statement

static const int  c = 299792458;

in your code also creating problem... Frown | :(
