CString is MFC class.
And the buffer it uses inside this class is handled by CString, it has nothing to do with user unless you are creating a pointer of the CString( Which is not at a good practice.)
Inside this CString class, destructor is having the code to delete the memory allocated for its internal buffer. So dont worrry, CString will delete that memory for you when it goes out of scope

But what if the usage is as below? The variable temp is not going out of scope.
Will it cause leak?
CString temp; //global variable
while(1)
{
temp = "hello"; //Assignment 1
temp = "world"; //Assignment 2
}

It will release the memory of previously allocated pointer on the = operator of CString.
See the code of CString.
The specified function is called inside the = operator.
void CString::AllocBeforeWrite(int nLen)
{
if (GetData()->nRefs > 1 || nLen > GetData()->nAllocLength)
{
Release();
AllocBuffer(nLen);
}
ASSERT(GetData()->nRefs <= 1);
}
Hope you are now clear with it

Since "world" is the same length as "hello", no reallocation will be done; "world" will just overwrite "hello".
If you set a string "hello world", the internal buffer would be reallocated in a safe manner, resulting in no leak. (For optimization reasons, CString sometimes allocates a larger buffer than requested, so even setting a larger string won't result in a reallocation.)

I've written a Win32 application that runs and displays a window, but I'm trying to run a second window.
After pressing a button or any other similar event.
The problem is that everywhere I looked, the second dialog was created using the Dialog function.
I was wondering is their any possible way to start one using Win32 API.
Appreciate any notes on this matter/subject.

Hia.
Yeah, sure this is possible - in perhaps fewer lines of code than you may expect.
You'll want to declare a static HWND in the windowProcedure for the first window, or declare it as a global.
Then it's just a matter of creating the new window.
I keep a flag that tells me if the child window currently exists or not, then I act accordingly - either setting the window text, or creating the window.
if (!isChildOpen)
{
GetWindowRect(hwndDlg, &myRect);
imgChildHWND = CreateWindowEx(0, "picWnd", myWad.getLumpName(resNum), WS_SYSMENU|WS_CAPTION|WS_POPUP|WS_VISIBLE|WS_CHILD, myRect.right, myRect.top, 300, 300, hwndDlg, NULL, hInst, 0);
isChildOpen = true;
}
else
SetWindowText(imgChildHWND, myWad.getLumpName(resNum));
The child window sends a message to the controlling window whenever it is closed so I know if the window is open or not without resorting to findWindow,
i.e
case WM_CLOSE:
PostMessage(GetParent(hwnd), IDC_CHILDCLOSING, 0, 0);
Where IDC_CHILDCLOSING is a message I've defined (#define IDC_CHILDCLOSING 1011)

I got it to work thank you very much.
However their is other problems.
How will I differentiate the window messages between parent and child window. 
For the controls, parent has a ListView child has a ComboBox.
|
|
|
|
|
That's okay, it's my pleasure. 
Each window receives messages from its own controls, so the parent gets WM_NOTIFY and LVN_xxxxxx messages, while the child window gets WM_COMMAND and CBN_xxxxxxx messages.
The key to the scheme is that you need to treat the child window like a custom control, and remember to pass messages from it to it's parent window. You'll need to tell the parent
when something in the child window has happened - e.g a combobox event, you may also wish to send messages from the parent to the child - e.g take this array of strings and add each one to the combobox.
In short, just think of the child window as a control and remember to pass messages between the control and it's parent whenever something needs to be done(e.g fill combo with array of strings), or whenever something has happened (e.g chosen item in combobox has changed)

I tried to detect which window handle is reporting to WM_CLOSE.
So I set up
if (hwnd == g_hWindow)
{
}
if (hwnd == g_hChildWindow)
{
}
However when I close the child window the message box goes smooth and I call destroy window with the g_hCildWindow passed along the function.
But then my main window gets killed along the way after it.
Even the background color of the child window is messed up.
I did setup the PAINSTRUCT like on the default main window.
But it doesn't seem to kick in.

As far as I know, you have to use _seperate_ procs for each window. With that in mind, there is no issue when it comes to finding out who generated a message - the message automatically goes to it's own parent. Perhaps I'm missing something?
Here's about the smallest, simplest (& unfortunately perhaps the nastiest) example I can think of at 4:30am

As I see your experienced with Win32 API, what is the effect of hInstance. I usually ignore it and pass it as NULL in CreateWindow, what problems can plague by doing so.
|
|
|
|
|
I've played with it a little over the years. I think I've got vague memories of passing NULL as well, but had forgotten about the trick. It's a perfect time you should ask what may go wrong, as I see there's a thread that asks just the same question right here[^].
|
|
|
|
|
I'm the one asking. 
But I still can't understand a thing from the blog, I guess my mind is a bit clouded atm.
|
|
|
|
|
Ah crap! 
Guess I should've looked a little closer. :grin:
From what I understand of the blog, this is used as a way of differentiating between different modules (dlls) that are loaded by an app.
Imagine I had an app that loaded 3 dlls, each one of them has an icon in it with the resource ID of 1000, yet each of the icons are entirely different. In order to reliably load the desired resource, you specify the hInstance of the DLL that contains it.
Well, that's my take on it anyway.

I've run this code in Visual Studio 2010.
I now have a deeper aspect of WS_VISIBLE, instead of having ShowWindow.
And I can understand the buttons and each message passing a message to the other.
It's a new example of Win32 communication taking place.
I'm really thankful for your help.
My program creates a main window and some time along the way I create a second window.
Hopefully that will be through the Win7 JumpList or a Shortcut Key, currently I place the code for triggering this in the message queue to trigger it. The problem was how to start another window, while the parent is running.
Please advise on how to create a new window, while the main window is running.
Although the Win32 documentation is a clear desert, MFC is just an encapsulation of that desert.
I can't figure it out yet, although I have worked with other GUI code.
Native is the way to go, but hard to walk the path if your mapless.

One thing you have wrong is in the server. You are only accepting ONE connection before entering the receive loop.
You'll never have more than one client connect because of this.
To handle multiple clients, you should spawn a thread for each client, unless you want to learn asynchrnous socket techniques.

Hi,
I know in regards to DuplicateHandle
kernel objects such as events mutex etc....
are releative to the process
But are the Source process handles and Target process handles unique
meaning the PROCESS_INFORMATION.hProcess param on The CreateProcess or hProcess from OpenProcess
can they be used in any process in a Call to DuplicateHandle

Hello,
for a little project of mine i need to detect the drive letters of USB devices that will be plugged in to the computer. Because i plan to run this app on a server, i write it as a standard windows service. But it seems that it is impossible to recieve the needed notification in a service application, while it works perfectly in a windowed application (see here[^] for the same problem).
Basically i register for the notifications like described in Receiving Device Event Notification in Windows Service(Detecting Hardware Insertion and/or Removal in Service)[^]. The problem is that with that registration i only get a DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE data structure passed to my handler function, but i need a DBT_DEVTYP_VOLUME instead to read the drive letter from it (remember, i am writing a service application).
I haven't found a way to get the drive letter from the DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE::dbcc_name like described in Detecting Hardware Insertion and/or Removal[^]
Or do you have any other approach on how to get drive letters of newly plugged in devices in services?

How to get the net speed of your computer and how to get the current webpage's speed?
up!Please give me some remarks?Or recommond some libraries...
I am not a genius, but shed more sweat!

Say what?
Perhaps you should define what it is that you want?
Do you want the inter(net) speed of the computer, or the gross/net speed of the computer?
In either case, what on earth do you mean by speed?
As for "the current webpage's speed"
What?!?
