Modal Application Window

4 New Member
Hi all,

I'm trying to execute a modal application window in a VC++ .NET project.

The project is basically a form which is used to launch various word processors in Windows; Notepad, Wordpad etc.

I'm having an extremely difficult time trying to find a way to make the Wordpad application window to be modal. (to avoid multiple copies to be opened)

Here's a snippet of code which is part of a menu option:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. {
  2.   STARTUPINFO  si;
  3.   PROCESS_INFORMATION  pi;
  4.  
  5.   CreateProcess(NULL, "Write.exe", NULL, NULL, FALSE, 0,  NULL, NULL, &si, &pi);
  6.  
  7.  
  8.  
  9.  WaitForSingleObject( pi.hProcess, INFINITE );
  10.  
  11.  CloseHandle( pi.hProcess );
  12.  CloseHandle( pi.hThread );
  13. }
  14.  
I'll appreciate any help on this.

Here is the problem: I have written a non-modal frame class in Java for displaying help text when a user is using an application. It works as desired in that if the user selects "help" again, the same frame is used -- this is done using a singleton. The user can do other stuff in the main window while the help window is up. However, when I have a modal dialog pop-up to get information from the user, it blocks events to the help...

Hi! I'm working on a web application in Asp.net and what I would like to have is a cross borwser modal dialog which accepts user's input. I would like to catch what the user clicked on the dialog. To be more specific I want to have a confirmation dialog that is shown when a user clicks on a Delete button (which deletes some values from database). If Yes is pressed the delete action is processed otherwise modal dialog is closed.

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. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
