Another question about my add-in for visual studio. Now, I had two experiments as following:
- In my add-in library's main thread, I call
CreateWindowEx
to create a window(orCreateDialogParam
to create a modeless dialog) and callCreateThread
to create a thread where the window's message loop is running. Then I will have a problem I've described in Why I lost input focus in visual studio 2005/2008. In my library's main thread, I call
CreateThread
to create a thread and within the thread process I callCreateWindowEx
to create a window and do the message loop. The input focus problem will not arise now but I will encounter another problem that I can't get Debugger object. Code is as such,CComPtr<EnvDTE::_DTE> pApp; // Assigned somewhere //... EnvDTE::DebuggerPtr pDebugger; if (S_OK == pApp->get_Debugger(&pDebugger)) //return is not S_OK now. {...}
Why?
