We have a multi-threaded C++ app which is mis-behaving. Fixing a corner-case bug properly would likely be a lot of work. Putting a patch on a bullet wound in combination with something else might do the trick. Due to too many heavy (GUI) threads being spawned, we are running over the limit of messages, which is defined in: HKLM\Software...
I am using CreateFileMapping and MapViewOfFile to try and map an almost 1 GB file. I was having some problems with extending the file so I thought that I would try using CreateFileMapping with a 1 GB size. That is larger than the actual file, but it works well on smaller files. It seems that I can get almost to a 1 GB mapping, but not a...

Now, I can hex encode an ASCII array like here: http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/cpp/cpp_mfc/article.php/c4029 But I need something that works with Unicode. Note: On Linux AND on Windows ! CURL has a quite nice: char *encodedURL = curl_easy_escape(handle,WEBPAGE_URL, strlen(WEBPAGE...
I'm working on a simulation project using c++ on both windows and linux. There will be several thousand objects (Perhaps 3000-5000) in the simulation. In plan to have several threads performing actions on the objects so that it makes good use of multi core machines, for example one thread handling movement and location of the objects, o...

Many mice and keyboards have "zoom" buttons on them. These almost always generate Ctrl+Mouse Wheel messages to the applications, so they are easily accounted for by us programmers. But my current Logitech mouse has an additional feature. The zoom wheel indeed sends Ctrl+Mouse Wheel messages when scrolled (or, actually, tilted), but when...
I'm developing an application for debugging purposes. I want the user to be able to select the process to be debugged using the mouse. Process Explorer does a great job of this with the "Find Window's Process" feature. What I can't figure out is how it does this? Does anyone know the Window's API that provides this functionality? Thanks...
