problem about FindNextPrinter ChangeNotificat ion

Dear ALL:
I'm writing a program about printer by C# now.I have read Duncan's
article about monitor printer by VB before and followed his method. I use
FindFirstPrinte rChangeNotifica tion and FindNextPrinter ChangeNotificat ion API
to monitor printer.
Now I'm puzzled by the FindNextPrinter ChangeNotificat ion function
..Whenever I call this method to get a pointer of PRINTER_NOTIFY_ INFO , it
always return null.
My code is:

int phand;
int whand;
RegisteredWaitH andle rwh;
ManualResetEven t wh;

OpenPrinter("Mi crosoftOffice", ref phand, 0) ; //MicrosoftOffice is my
printer name
whand =
FindFirstPrinte rChangeNotifica tion(phand,(int )PrinterChangeN otificationGene r
alFlags.PRINTER _CHANGE_JOB,0,0 );
wh = new ManualResetEven t(false);
wh.Handle = new IntPtr(whand);
rwh = ThreadPool.Regi sterWaitForSing leObject(wh,new
WaitOrTimerCall back(PrinterNot ifyWaitCallBack ),wh,-1,true);

public void PrinterNotifyWa itCallBack(obje ct state,bool timeout)
{
int pdwChange=0;
IntPtr ptr= IntPtr.Zero;

bool next = FindNextPrinter ChangeNotificat ion(whand,ref pdwChange,0,ref
ptr); //The next is true,but the ptr always returns 0
PRINTER_NOTIFY_ INFO pni =
(PRINTER_NOTIFY _INFO)Marshal.P trToStructure(p tr,typeof(PRINT ER_NOTIFY_INFO) )
; //So the pni is always null.

FreePrinterNoti fyInfo(ptr);
MessageBox.Show ("Notify");
wh.Reset();
rwh = ThreadPool.Regi sterWaitForSing leObject(wh,new
WaitOrTimerCall back(PrinterNot ifyWaitCallBack ),wh,-1,true);
}

I know here are many experts at this field.Could anyone tell me why and
how to solve this problem? I'm crashed by it.

Thank you very much!

I'm having a problem on windows (both 2000 and XP) with a multi-threaded tkinter gui application. The problem appears to be a deadlock condition when a child thread pops up a Pmw dialog window in the context of a main window. The problem does not occur on HPUX or Linux. The following simple example code illustrates the problem and the work around I've come up with; However, I'd like, very much, to get rid of the kludgy work around....

I have a virtual function in a base class, which is then overwritten by a function of the same name in a publically derived class. When I call the 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 function. ...

If I have a class with a virtual method, and a child class that overrides the virtual method, and then I create an instance of the child class AS A base class...

How do I fix this if I don't know at runtime what the child class is? I'm using Activator.CreateInstance() to load the...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: 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,...
