Hi all,
I tried using GetCurrentThrea d to get the Handle of the current thread
but it keeps returning 0xfffffffe for all the threads that I access it
in. This is not the correct handle. Am I missing any prerequisite
calls or something else?

GetCurrentThrea d returns a pseudo handle - "a special constant that is
interpreted as the current thread handle".
What's your problem with it?

Adding to David's reply, you can get a real handle for the current thread by
using DuplicateHandle , passing GetCurrentThrea d() as the source handle
value. You are then responsible for (eventually) closing the handle
returned by DuplicateHandle .
If you created the current thread yourself, the handle is returned by
CreateThread or _beginthreadex. If you didn't create the thread, then
GetCurrentThrea d/DuplicateHandle is the way to go.

The documentation explains everything:

back looking for a reply ... too bad my outlook express is not working
due to some firewall issues.)
Thanks for the reply guys. I understand now finally what u guys have
told me. I actually wanted the handles cuz I wanted to pass them in
the waitformultiple objects function. MSDN sometimes talks in a way
that my kind of less-knowledged people dont seem to get it and all
thats needed is a little bit extra info in easy to understand english
sentences (where you guys come in) :).
Thanks all.

I'm having problems using a function to get the search criteria for a

problem is that if I want to search on more than one value my function
in the QBE correctly returns "1 Or 4" (for example), but something's
getting garbled and I'm not getting the same data back if I just enter
"1 Or 4" (w/o quotes) in the QBE grid.

I'm sure this is a very dumb question but when a user clicks on a row in my
data table (which has been sorted) how do I return the correct row index for
my underlying data table? The CurrentRowIndex property gives me the selected
row of the data grid which no longer matches the data table when the columns
have been resorted.
Thanks!!!

I must be losing my mind why is the following code returning wrong

var d = new Date();
alert(d); -> Fri Apr 7 09:28:18 EDT 2006
alert("Hour:" + d.getHours()); -> 9
alert("Year:" + d.getYear()); -> 2006
alert("Month:" + d.getMonth()); -> 3

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.
