Multi threading
-
Hi, Currently i am working on single document interface MFC to create a small update program to the database to change the values store in the fields. However, in order to let the program run "automatically", i have to used thread. But I know nuts about threading. I have attached the main part of the updating of the program below. pls kindly help..I have read up on books about C++ on the thread function. the book says, to create and start, i have to use AfxBeginThread and have some arguements inside. and a function UINT MyThreadFunction(LPVOID pParam). Really need help on this as its very urgent to me... Thanks a million.
void CUpdateView::OnUpdatedb() { // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here double propa_update = 0.814; double resp_update = 0.205; double link_update = 1.19; //get a pointer to the recordset CUpdateDoc* pDoc = GetDocument(); UseRecordset* pUseRecordset = &pDoc->m_UseRecordset; do { //Allows the current record to be edited pUseRecordset->Edit(); //increment in the values from the database pUseRecordset->m_propatime = pUseRecordset->m_propatime*propa_update; pUseRecordset->m_respondtime = pUseRecordset->m_respondtime*resp_update; pUseRecordset->m_link = pUseRecordset->m_link*link_update; //Saves the current changes to the database pUseRecordset->Update(); //Reruns the current SQL query to refresh the recordset pUseRecordset->Requery(); //Update the form UpdateData(true); }while(check_exit!=0); } void CUpdateView::OnExit() { check_exit=0; OnExit(); } -

If so, read this article. When it comes time to update the database, create the thread and put your update code in this thread. You might want to periodically post a message back to the main thread indicating progress.

Hi, I have read the article that you gave me and have tried implementing the methods into my program.. however, that are still one error which i hope u could help me..
void CUpdateView::OnUpdatedb() { // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here running = true; AfxBeginThread(run, this); } UINT CUpdateView::run(LPVOID p) { CUpdateView* pView = (CUpdateView*)p; pView->run(); double propa_update = 0.814; double resp_update = 0.205; double link_update = 1.19; do { //get a pointer to the recordset **CUpdateDoc* pDoc = GetDocument();** UseRecordset* pUseRecordset = &pDoc->m_UseRecordset; //Allows the current record to be edited pUseRecordset->Edit(); //increment in the values from the database pUseRecordset->m_propatime = pUseRecordset->m_propatime*propa_update; pUseRecordset->m_respondtime = pUseRecordset->m_respondtime*resp_update; pUseRecordset->m_link = pUseRecordset->m_link*link_update; //Saves the current changes to the database pUseRecordset->Update(); //Reruns the current SQL query to refresh the recordset pUseRecordset->Requery(); }while(check_exit!=0); return 0; } void CUpdateView::OnExit() { running = false; }The part that i have it bold is giving mi the error.. the error message is : 'CUpdateView::GetDocument' : illegal call of non-static member function This problem is it because i have theUINT CUpdateView::run(LPVOID p)declare as static? see declaration of 'GetDocument' My declaration isCUpdateDoc* GetDocument();in CUpdateView Class -

//get a pointer to the recordset
CUpdateDoc* pDoc = **pView->**GetDocument();Keep in mind that what you have will not work if the primary thread is also accessing the document or the recordset.
