I already have code to capture screen in BMP format.
I want to capture screen in JPEG format.
if you have VC++ code please share it to me.
Thanks in advance.

SendInput()

Hello all. I'm trying to synthesize alt + space to bring up the output window's menu using SendInput(). For some reason it works on other windows that I click on after compiling, but CMD windows just take it as a space key press. Here's what I have:

    Sleep(2500);

INPUT in1 = {INPUT_KEYBOARD};
INPUT in2 = {INPUT_KEYBOARD};
INPUT in3 = {INPUT_KEYBOARD};
INPUT in4 = {INPUT_KEYBOARD};
KEYBDINPUT k1 = {VK_MENU,0,0,0,0};
KEYBDINPUT k2 = {VK_SPACE,0,0,0,0};
KEYBDINPUT k3 = {VK_SPACE,0,KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,0,0};
KEYBDINPUT k4 = {VK_MENU,0,KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,0,0};
in1.ki = k1;
in2.ki = k2;
in3.ki = k3;
in4.ki = k4;
SendInput(1, &in1, sizeof(INPUT));
SendInput(1, &in2, sizeof(INPUT));
SendInput(1, &in3, sizeof(INPUT));
SendInput(1, &in4, sizeof(INPUT));

system("pause");

So this works in other windows and ignores the alt press in CMD windows. Snarl. The alt + space hot key works in CMD windows when I press the keys manually.

Just a guess but it could be that the key handler for those windows you want to target use GetKeyState[^] or GetAsynchKeyState[^] to check if the ALT key is down or not and SendInput does not change what these will return. I guess you could test for this by manually pressing the ALT key and sending the space with SendInput as you do.

But when i compile i get:

Command line error D8016 : /o2 and /RTC1 command line options are incompatible

Any one know what can i do about it?

Thanks

you'll need to disable the "run time error checks" compiler option.

Either turn off 'Optimize for speed' or 'Run Time Error Checks[^]' as they are apparently not compatible.

Adding a int array inside CStringArray

Hi all,

i have made a CStringArray, and inside that array i have put 5 items of CString type, but i want to add one more item which is int array inside that item.

How can i do this?

Thanks in advance

What do you really need to do? Do you have to store the integers or their string representation?

You need to rethink your design; don't mix different types in this way, it will likely lead to problems in the future.

Hi ,
I have created C++ library(3 dlls) and I am using these library in my Java UI through JNI. In my JNI I am modifiying jobjectArray i.e. adding data inside my jobjectArray and returning it from JNI. Now my problem is if in future my C++ library changes I will have to change my JNI code. What should I do to 'tune' my JNI so that it will change with minimum impact. Does it require Adapter classes or wrapper clases. Any information on this will help me. Thanks

I suppose 'the best you can' here is: "follow the KISS principle, keep it simple".

Since you cannot predict the future changes, make your overall design simple and well documented.

CWinThread

In the main thread of my app i do some work and once in a while i create another helper thread to do some job using: AfxBeginThread function which returns me a CWinThread object reference.

But before i will create once again the helper thread i have to be sure that the previous is done.

Now im using the CEvent object to signal from the helper thread that he is done but my app crashes sometimes.

Can i use the CWinThread object to find out whether the previous thread is done?

Thanks.

Have a look at MSDN documentation: "Multithreading: Terminating Threads"[^].
The "Retrieving the Exit Code of a Thread" section gives all info you need (read carefully the steps needed in order to retrieve the exit status of a CWinThread).

Think you probably need to figure out the cause of the crash (that's your main issue), but you can also use the main thread handle in the CWinThread to "wait on" (WaitForSingleObject).
