Thanks !!That does answer my question . Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

My question was that i expected an dead lock but it did not happen .I just wanted to understand whats really happening behind the scenes of Send Message() ANyway ,Thanks ! Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

As i have understood the message loop dispatches messages synchronously.i.e it executes the handler to that message and then moves to another message . Also ,Sendmessage(MESSAGE1) call is synchronous i.e. it executes the handler for MESSAGE1 and then returns. WIth this assumption ,iam posting this question. Let's say i have handled the KEYDOWN message as OnKeyDown(). I do this OnKeyDOwn() { SendMessage(WM_MOUSEMove...) } Iam expecting that SendMessage() as opposed to PostMessage should create a deadlock as it executes synchronously-Its trying to execute /put the message in the same loop from where it was called .But it does not happen .Can Somebody explain this ? Does this mean SendMessage() does not post the message in the message loop ,but directly calls WndProc() or something like that ?

DOn't take this personally danny !!!Iam no expert ,iam just sharing what i have tried in Visual Studio ..thats it . I just refrred to the example in MSDN http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vclib/html/\_mfc\_cwnd.3a3a.calcwindowrect.asp If thee link is not working ,refer to Cwnd ::calWindowRect in MSDN and refer to the example given at the end . calcWindowRect will calculate the window Rectangle ,given the client reactangle size (required size). In this case ,ur call to calcWindowrect will return the same client rectangle size as m_hWnd of that window is NULL .CHeck CWnd::GetStyle() and CWnd ::calWindowrect() . In this case CalcWindowRect won't be useful at all .U can directly use Create with required window size . Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

CFileDialog myDialog myDialog.CalcWindowRect() myDIalog.create .... If this is what you have suggested ,then CalcWindowRect () call is going to fail as the window is not yet created ! Check for the Assert statement in CWnd ::GetExStyle() which is accessed in CalcWindowRect() Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

I guess this method won't work as the HWND of the CFileDialogis not yet created ! (Worst case - try with Hooks ) . Install a hook before Do Modal () Handle the Hook for it and delete the hook after that . Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

MoveWindow may not work ,if you are using DoModal ()directly on a object of CFileDialog Inherit a class from CFileDialog and over -ride the OnInitdialog .Now include the MoveWindow() Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

I Guess using CreateWaitableTimer with SetTimer and WaitForSingleObject may block ur thread ! Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

If you feel teh timer function takes alot of time .then You can do this . Wherever_Timer_creation_required { setTimer(X,Y,MULL) pthread=AfxCreateThread(); } OnTimer() { pthread->PostThreadMessage(Message) } Now you can handle that message in pthread . Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

Iam not sure what you want here ... 1.If you want to display the progres s,then u can use progress control .CProgressCtrl is the class. 2.CFtpConnection is teh class for FTP Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

Refer PretranslateMessage() is mSDN and u will find the answer for that probably !!! Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

This would the nearest i can think of ... 1.Before you call any function of that DLL ,call SetWIndowsHookEx(WH_CBT,CBTProc ,GetApp()->m_hInstance , GetcurrentThreadId()) You need to write the CBTProc Function .refet MSDN for it .In that function you can trap any messages for all the windows create din ur application . 2.AFter you are thru with calling the DLL function ,call UnhookWindowsHookEx() To read more ,there is en excellent article by Nishant and SHog .If you follow the MFC way ( CDelayMessageBox 2 ) ,you can do this easily .

Hello , Is there any SDK to implement the AUto-Upgrade feature .I am writing a application in vc++ .Is there anything ,that i can use some SDKs that can be used to check for upgrades for my application from a URL /server ? Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

I don't think you can do that directly ...You can try CHttpFile class in MFC which will help you ... Cause is my effort; Effect is God's effort

Hello , Iam developing a Secure browser .The secure browser needs to capture the events in an HTML Page and execute a DLL function.One way is to capture it in HTML page thru on-click handlers and call the DLL function from the HTML event handler( thru Java script).But this is not required . What i need is to capture HTML page button clicks by the vc++ app which launches the HTML page .Iam using internet explorer's functions to display the HTML page .
