many many my programs are running excellent in release but crashes at once in debug (I even can't see any interface) - I think this is microsoft's problem, we do not need to take responsibilities for it, I never worry about it at all.

So take it easy.

Could you provide more information where it crashes in the debug build, including a stack trace? Is it your code or which line of the MFC source code causes the problem, perhaps it's an ASSERT?

Since, it is a Windows Service, and I'm using MSVC6, I'm really unable to debug it.

When I call the Close method for CAsyncSocket class, the program crashes. So it seems that there is some problem in MFC's code.

If you are not able to attach a debugger to the process, how about a simulated stop of the service handler? Maybe write a mockup framework that would trigger your code under similar conditions. Just a guess, you are not using CAsyncSocket in multiple worker threads, everything is one thread context?

I call the function which is called when the SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP event is fired by myself. But I'm unable to reproduce that crash. It only occurs when it is stopped by Service Manager. No I'm not using CAsyncSocket in multiple threads

CSocket Problem on Windows Mobile with WLAN

Member 224636612-Aug-09 1:58

Member 2246366

12-Aug-09 1:58

Hi,

I'm working on a Windows Mobile application that connects to a server on a PC.
The problem with the following lines:

CSocket as;
if(!as.Create())
MessageBox(_T("creation failed"));
if(as.Connect(_T("192.168.1.24"), 110))
MessageBox(_T("connected"));
else
MessageBox(_T("failed to connect"));

is, that Connect(...) allways returns TRUE, even if the server isn't started and even if the PC with the IP address 192.168.1.24 is switched off.
This error only occures with Windows Mobile and a WLAN connection. On Windows XP/Vista connected via WLAN/LAN or Windows Mobile connected via USB Connect(...) returns FALSE when there's no server.

Any hints?

Thanks,

Thomas

ps.: to be a bit more precise - the problematic connection is from a PDA via WLAN to a Netgear internet router and the PC is connected via LAN

Doubleclick on MDI Frame

Hi everybody,

I like to catch the doubleclick on the MDI Frame.
Not somewhere into the Frame, rather on the titlebar of the frame itself.

In PreTranslateMessage of the MDIChildWnd I tried already to catch the message
WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK, but it seems that this message is never handled to this frame.

Has anyone an idea?

Big thanks Smile | :)

Knowing how frames work for normal windows, I suspect you want to look for WM_NCLBUTTONDBLCLK, i.e. the non-client area equivalent of WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK

Installing a driver and Registry settings!!

Hai!

Is there any key in the registry which changes its value each time i install and uninstall the driver for a smart card reader!!

Thanks!

There are many registry settings changing. What is the purpose of this question? Why do you need to know registry modifications?

There are too many to list and some are vendor specific. Locate the driver installation package for your smartcard device and open the INF file. Registry modifications are located in the 'AddReg' sections. You can also install an installation monitor and log the registry changes.

Best Wishes,

Hallo,
I have the following problem with the Thread:

I create the Thread first as SUSPENDED, but it does not start at the expectetd time.

First the Program calls this function:

ThreadStart();

///////////////////////////////

ThreadStart()
{
if (m_pSelThread != NULL)
{
if (::WaitForSingleObject(m_pSelThread->m_hThread, 0) != WAIT_OBJECT_0)
return;

delete m_pSelThread;
m_pSelThread = NULL;
}

::WaitForSingleObject(m_SEl_Start_Event, 0);

m_SEl_Start_Event.SetEvent (); // CEvent Object

CWinThread* m_pSelThread = AfxBeginThread(ThreadFunktion, this, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL, 0, CREATE_SUSPENDED);

m_pSelThread->m_bAutoDelete = FALSE;

m_pSelThread->ResumeThread();
}

UINT ThreadFunktion
(
LPVOID param
)

{
if (param == NULL)
return -1;

DoSomeThing();

return 0;
}

The Thread does not come to the UINT ThreadFunktion(LPVOID param).

Any help would be appriciated.

Shouldn't that be:

m_pSelThread = AfxBeginThread(ThreadFunktion, this, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL, 0, CREATE_SUSPENDED);

i.e. you're hiding the class member variable with the local one.

Can't you just start the thread and wait for the event to happen within the thread before executing code? What's all this mess about? Why are you setting the m_bAutoDelete member to false? I see you may delete it manually, but *what* is the purpose of it?

Well you may want to do that, I mean that's nothing wrong in doing it (and that's the reason for delaying the thread start).
