HtmlHelp in multi-threaded app
-
Hi! We have a multi-threaded application, and want to use HTML Help, so we link with htmlhelp.lib. And run in the error with the LIBCMT lib. I changed the project settings to ignore it. But doesn't this affect the multi-threading of the app? One solution mentioned in the MSKB is to link with hhctrl.lib. Okay, but where can I find it? Martin

I'm not sure if this will help, but we are using Html Help that calls up a .chm file and I just do a ShellExecute on hh.exe and pass it the appropriate page that is supposed to go to. I do this in the OnHelpInfo function for every dialog. If you need more information let me know. Carole ================== The original message was: Hi!

Hi Carole, thanks for your reply, but calling HtmlHelp via ShellExecute was not an option, because I want to handle it in one place, in CWinApp::WinHelp. But the problem is solved now. Downloading the newest version of the HTML Help Workshop from the microsoft site solved the problem. Martin
