Enumerating Windows

Jay
Hey There,
I have this function that is called through EnumWindows:

BOOL CALLBACK EnumOpenWindows(HWND hwnd, LPARAM lParam)
{
DWORD dwID;
LPDWORD dwID2;
LPDWORD currProcId;
FILE* fp;
struct _HwndProcStruct* locHPStruct;

fp = fopen(THREAD_LOG_FILE,APPEND_MODE);
fprintf(fp,"*******************<EnumOpenWindows>** *****************\n");
fclose(fp);

dwID2 = (LPDWORD)calloc(1,sizeof(DWORD));
locHPStruct = (struct _HwndProcStruct*)lParam;
*currProcId = locHPStruct->procID;
*dwID2 = 0;

GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, dwID2);

fp = fopen(THREAD_LOG_FILE,APPEND_MODE);
fprintf(fp,"currProcId=%d dwID2=%d\n",*currProcId,*dwID2);
fclose(fp);

if(*dwID2 == *currProcId)
{
locHPStruct->WindHandle = hwnd;
free(dwID2);
return FALSE;
}
else
{
free(dwID2);
return TRUE;
}
}

I'm using it to try to find the HWND from a Process ID. For some
reason, when I have the file print statements below
"GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, dwID2); " the function will generate
the following error:

Unhandled exception at 0x0040126c in SysTrayApp.exe: 0xC0000005: Access
violation writing location 0x000809be.

But if I comment out those three lines, then the function executes
normally. What could cause this?

Why do you do a dynamic memory allocation here? The size of your object
is known, just create your variable on the stack:

unsigned process_id;
GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, &process_id);
*currProcId = locHPStruct->procID;


currProcId is uninitialized, yet you're resolving it, as if it was a
valid pointer. This is causing your Access Violation. Once again,
there's no reason to use a pointer here. How about

unsigned currProcId = locHPStruct->procID;

Tom,
Thanks for the reply, I don't why I was doing all that! I have
another question though. Now that I have that resolved, I have the
following lines of code:
retVal =
CreateProcess(NULL,modName,NULL,NULL,FALSE,NULL,NU LL,NULL,&si,&pi);
procID = pi.dwProcessId;
HPStruct.procID = procID;
HPStruct.WindHandle = 0;
EnumWindows((WNDENUMPROC)EnumOpenWindows,(LPARAM)& HPStruct);
As you can see, I am enumerating the windows almost immediately after
creating the process. Why is it that the window handle id for the newly
created process is not in the list of processes that is enumerated? The
output from the function is below:

Now that I have that resolved, I have the
following lines of code:
retVal =
CreateProcess(NULL,modName,NULL,NULL,FALSE,NULL,NU LL,NULL,&si,&pi);
procID = pi.dwProcessId;
HPStruct.procID = procID;
HPStruct.WindHandle = 0;
EnumWindows((WNDENUMPROC)EnumOpenWindows,(LPARAM)& HPStruct);
As you can see, I am enumerating the windows almost immediately after
creating the process.


Probably that's the problem. CreateProcess returns almost immediately,
well before the new process has a chance to open a window. You might
want to wait for the process to launch:

CreateProcess(...);
HPStruct.procID = pi.dwProcessId;
HPStruct.WindHandle = 0;
WaitForSingleObject(pi.hProcess, INFINITE);
EnumWindows(...);

Sorry this is not good, it waits for the process to exit. This is not a
solution.

Well I don't know, but the problem seems to be that the window shows up
later in time, after EnumWindows has a chance to see it. You might want
to repeat the window enumeration a few times until it shows up, with a
little bit of Sleep() in between attempts. This would be my first guess.

I think I've found the correct solution, it's WaitForInputIdle:

CreateProcess(...);
HPStruct.procID = pi.dwProcessId;
HPStruct.WindHandle = 0;
WaitForInputIdle(pi.hProcess, INFINITE);
EnumWindows(...);
Quoted from MSDN:

The WaitForInputIdle function enables a thread to suspend its execution
until a specified process has finished its initialization and is waiting
for user input with no input pending. This can be useful for
synchronizing a parent process and a newly created child process. When a
parent process creates a child process, the CreateProcess function
returns without waiting for the child process to finish its
initialization. Before trying to communicate with the child process, the
parent process can use WaitForInputIdle to determine when the child's
initialization has been completed. For example, the parent process
should use WaitForInputIdle before trying to find a window associated
with the child process.
