Re: Thread and Timer

Joe you must be kidding, he needs a window in his UI thread just use timers?

::SetTimer works just fine in CWinThread. All you have to do is set a
ON_THREAD_MESSAGE(WM_TIMER,OnTimer) in your message map.

Is it a UI thread? Is the timer associated with a window in the UI
thread? (You may have
to create an invisible top-level window to get this to work...)

Why not do something very simple: ON_WM_TIMER()?


I tryed with ON_WM_TIMER but it's never called.



You do not need a g_iTmer, g_hWnd, or g_iMessage here, if this were a
handler for
WM_TIMER. Get rid of them. I can't even imagine why they are needed at
all, since they
coudl be member variables of the CWatchDog class.

Yes you are right. I copyed and paste the code from the the callback.
