multi-threading

This is a repost, now that ChatGPT is working again... Hi. I need some clarification and/or help with a multi-threaded application being debugged with Visual Studio. I notice that when I hit a breakpoint in a thread, it stops, and I can examine the status and values, but when I step to the...

Hi. I need some clarification and/or help with a multi-threaded application being debugged with Visual Studio. I notice that when I hit a breakpoint in a thread, it stops, and I can examine the status and values, but when I step to the next instruction, the debugger goes back to the original...

I have solved the problem! See the original post, "A strange problem with modeless dialog boxes", for details. This is a repost, incorporating the latest simplifications of the problem statement, and a minimal reproducible example of the code... I'm having a problem with modeless dialog boxes...

If the Link Removed due to 404 Error were a car engine, it would've been made by Porsche. With "only" six cores, each core in the new Xeon offers almost twice the performance of the competition. A 32nm CPU that only occupies 248 mm2 the Westmere Xeon EP embodies pure refinement and intelligent...

Link Removed - Invalid URL If you are a gamer then you have most certainly heard about DirectX 11 and how it is going to change the face of gaming. If you are like me, then you would be skeptical, but in doing more and more research into DirectX 11 and compatible cards I’ve seen first...
