I'm having a timeout problem with NotifyIcon.Show BalloonTip, but not the
problem commonly found.
Most people complain that the balloon shows up too long (even though this is
by design... I've done that reading), but the problem I'm having is the icon
is disappearing too quickly.
Even in an application that all I have is a Form, NotifyIcon and Button,
when the Button_Click action is set for
notifyIcon1.Sho wBalloonTip(300 00, "Title", "Text", ToolTipIcon.Non e);
The icon still disappears after 4-5 seconds. It was my understanding that
this code should make it disappear after 30 seconds. Even if it was set too
low, 5 seconds should be the minimum timeout.
Am I missing something?

set too low, 5 seconds should be the minimum timeout.
From the documentation: "Minimum and maximum timeout values are enforced by
the operating system and are typically 10 and 30 seconds, respectively,
however this can vary depending on the operating system. Timeout values that
are too large or too small are adjusted to the appropriate minimum or
maximum value."
I don't know if these parameters are actually configurable (they likely are)
and if you have something installed that changes them, but in any case, you
cannot count on the timeout being enforced. For more details, you'll likely
need to delve into the details of the balloon tip control in Win32.

I'm having a problem on windows (both 2000 and XP) with a multi-threaded

I have a virtual function in a base class, which is then overwritten by a

function using a pointer to the derived class (ClassB* b; b->func(); ) the
base-class function is called instead of the new function in the derived
class. All other similar functions (virtual in the base class and
overwritten in the the derived class) work fine, it's just this one

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
