And what about thread safety? If you're unlucky two threads calling getInstance() at the same time may cause two objects being created. There are many ways to create a Singleton pattern, lots of the attempts are just wrong, only a few are correct without showing too much of a performance hit. Look at several articles on the subject here at CP, or elsewhere.

Yep, of course it needs lock protecting.
|

True. If you asked me how to implement a singleton in a multi-threaded environment, I might have thought of that 
Oh well, maybe I'm just lucky that the things I work on involve virtually no multithreading at all!

This is an academic question - can standard MFC CSplitterWnd class be easily modified to allow floating static views?
There are few posts here about splitter window which do wonderful things, but not necessary easy to adopt.
Ideally I would like to have ability to select a view in sort-off pop-up fashion - make a duplicate and be able to move it around / re-size etc.
Any opinions are welcome.
Thanks for you time.

You can change the size of a splitter window by dragging the splitter bar and/or resizing its parent window. If you want a floating window then that is a different thing altogether. Perhaps you could explain some more of what you are trying to do.

I have an application ( ham radio logging program ) which have / needs several views of the database document - mostly different files and some statistics.
The main interaction with user is simple data entry, one view in real time, and than updating the views.
I need to keep minimal mouse / keyboard interaction to manipulate the auxiliary views.
Using splitter is OK, but I would like to be able to “pop-up” the main view and keep the splitter running in the background.
My goal is – minimal mouse interaction ( the user is using both hands to “work “ the hardware already ) – say using function keys to do this, maybe even voice interface.

You have a number of options:
- use an MDI window so you can control which child window is at the front
- have a full-frame child window that you show or hide on demand
- have a separate frame window independent of your main one
There are probably other possibilities that you could consider; it all depends on how you want to interact with your users.

Hi, all!
I'm addicted to VC++ since 2008, and I begin to work for my current company from 2011 when I graduated in Mathematics. Now I still love VC++, it is a wonderful programming language.
Now I'm a little confused whether it's a good idea to continue with Windows Programming.
Now I'm in Beijing, China. Of course, I come from China. I want to find a work in Silicon Valley, America in the future.
Can anyone tell me is it possible for me to find a VC++ work in Silicon Valley someday in the future? And what should I do in the recent years?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Who knows? The world might end, the companies may move north or east, some new technology may make them all redundant ...
Falconapollo wrote: And what should I do in the recent years?
Again, how can anyone say without being able to predict the future.
A much better idea would be to look around your local area at the companies that are hiring and see if you have, or could learn the skills that are in demand. The more different languages and frameworks you can work with the more chance there is of getting a better job in the future.

Thank you.
Your answer is short but useful.

That is a bit general.
C++ is a programming language. And the MS implementation is a fairly decent (these days) implementation of that.
Managed C++ is also a programming language. It derives from C++. It might be a strict super set, but one would need to looks at the specification to determine that.
The windows API, are libraries which one uses with a programming language.

Learn SQL, probably TSQL (Microsoft SQL Server). SQL programming is significantly different that programming in C++ (or C, Java, C#, for that matter). So it gives more breadth to your knowledge. Plus relational databases are not going to go away.

Sure, why not? ...but, if you want to find work in America, diversify yourself as a professional. In another words, no one wants to hire someone that's only good at one thing, learn different things, that's what most small companies want (which make up a large number of employers). Silicon Valley is full of innovative companies but competition for jobs is tough, so make sure you stand out in the crowd.

Thank you for your reply.
I think I know what to do during the recent years from your recommendations.

Sure, good luck!

Hi,
I have a Edit Box. How can I restrict this Edit Box
so that it will accept characters like '=' and ';'
This is not MFC based. Win32 only.
Thanks in advance.

Does anybody remember a graphics library shipped with older MS C compilers? Is there available something similar to that one, maybe in (open) source version?
|
|
|
|
|
Use Windows' own GDI[^] or GDI+[^] for graphics programming, it is so much simpler than any of the older libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
are you using an old DOS C compiler (MSC 5 or MSC 6, etc.) ?
if so, that's going to be tough...

Hi!
I'm calling an exe from a Batch file using CALL statement. The exe is not the same folder with batch file. The exe is inside some other folder.
The exe has some dependencies(VC++ DLL's). How to include/call those DLL's also inside the CALL statement so that my exe would run without errors?
The code that I use is:
<pre>
PushD .
Cd ..
Call Gen /AssetManager:Disable /DisplayErrors:off /ReturnErrorsCount:off /Log:Enable /Log:Html /Log:Verbose /Window:Normal /CreateObjectHash /RemoveSources:On /CreateResourceHash /GenerateDisplayLists:On /GenerateSceneLists:Off /GeneratePreDrawOT "france_1222\Test.xml" france_1222\%_SDF_% "iPhone"
PopD
</pre>
"Gen" is my exe name.

You don't need the CALL command to execute an executable program from within a batch file. The CALL command is provided to execute other batch files from within a batch file or call a local subfunction.
Each executable file tries itself to resolve DLL dependicies. If your application terminates due to missing DLLs, you must place the DLLs in common directories or modify the DLL search pathes.
Common DLL directories are:
- The directory from which the application loaded.
- The system directory.
- The Windows directory.
- The directories that are listed in the
PATH environment variable.
To add directories that are searched by your application you may use the API function SetDllDirectory().
To add directories using a batch file, append them to the PATH environment variable.
