Thread and ThreadStart functions stop in Labwindows
Hello
I'm trying to access a card PCI Express, which uses the ThreadStart functions and ThreadStop driver. When I compile
my code, LabWindows generate an error "missing" prototype I looked at the source code for the driver and the following line is
in the header file:
#if! (defined (WIN32): defined (WIN16)) | defined (WinCE). defined (_MT)
DWORD DLLCALLCONV ThreadStart(HANDLE *phThread, HANDLER_FUNC pFunc, void *pData);
Sub DLLCALLCONV ThreadStop (HANDLE hThread);
#endif
I use Windows XP Professional, so I guess I wouldn't declare and define functions of theses. If I remove
the condition, LabWindows may find prototypes, but the same problem occurs for other functions and as I am
will probably update the driver, I will not comment the code inside the driver.
If anyone has had the same problem or knows the solution? (maybe an option of the compiler...)
Thank you
Cyril
Oh boy, I think you're screwed! _beginthreadex() belongs to the C from Visual C++ runtime library. his name starts with a '_', which means that it is an extension to the runtime soldier: it is clearly not transferable and will never compile with any other than Visual C++ C runtime library.
Now you can use Visual C++ to compile your code, or ask the original developer to stop using the TERM private extensions and stick to the standard C and standard system calls. I personally would opt for the second option.
(in any case, I want to say that CreateThread() is not only for Windows CE: this is a standard Windows API call available on all Windows since Windows 95 systems (maybe even before). don't be fooled by the Windows SDK documentation that separates documentation for Windows CE and Windows standard.) Unfortunately, some rather old SDK documentation shows the first Windows CE functions (especially when you are looking for in the index) people fooling into thinking that these functions are only for THIS: all functions available on Windows CE is also also available for standard WIndows OSes with more options and a more profound documentation.)

How killi thread and stop java.util.Timer?
Hello
I have table list, this list contains my objects (areas of Thread) and these threads use the Timer (java.util.Timer).
In some time, I need to find the object in the list of tables, destroy this specific thread and immediately to stop the timer.
I don't know what is the best way how a) destroy the thread and b) stop the timer.
Could you tell me what technique to use?
Thank you.I don't think you're catching what everyone tells you:
Unless I missed something in your code, you do the following:
1 create a thread that starts a timer (the thread itself dies immediately after the launch of the timer)
2 put the dead (or soon to die) wire reference in a list of tables.To solve your problem, as has already been said: stop timers, they exist independently of your son now dead. Remove the reference ArrayList where you keep a list of the dead son. They will be eligible for garbage collection when you have no refrence to them any longer. Java garbare collector will not immediately work to show you got something, it is that way by their design, but ultimately it will collect your dead and not referenced objects and drop them.

Satellite A200 - Touchpad scroll function stop working after BIOS update
Hello
After that I updated the BIOS (drawn from the Toshiba site), the scroll function stop working. I can still click, move the mouse pointer, but can no longer navigate the touchpad. Relocation of Synaptics driver is not the problem. The strange thing is that the computer detects only my touchpad as standard pointing device (port: PS/2) device. "Graph of pressure" and "Moodpad" function also stop working and complain "this program requires a Synaptics TouchPad, and the Synaptics Pointing device driver.
My computer is Satellite A200 PSAE0C-TR605C.Anyone know the reason?
Thank youDanny
Hello
What operating system is installled and which is more interesting: what version of BIOS you have installed? Why I ask? Because there are 2 different BIOS versions, one for Vista (1.80) and one for XP (5.20) which means that when you Flash a BIOS XP on a computer with Vista installed then some functions do not work properly as the FN keys or the touchpad.
If please check this out and make sure you have the appropriate BIOS installed.

I tried to get the following information in the public domain for years and now that I have the answers, I'll share with those who might be interested.
Caveat!
Wrap your head in tape before reading just for the sake of security.
My two questions were;
(1) may LV re - use tampons of VI calling when you use VI serve call by reference?
(2) is used when the use of call by reference UI thread?
1 when you call a VI using the call through the reference node, the data in the pane of the copied or is node connector - this online as it would be with a Subvi properly implemented?
Short answer: it's somewhere between the two.
Long answer:
The compiler does not know what will be called VI, but there a hint:
the reference connected to the node of the call by reference. He uses to get the 'Prototype' for the call. Therefore, for optimal performance, use a prototype that has the same 'characteristics placeness' as it is called VI. That said, users don't know what are the "characteristics of the placeness.
Before getting into the details, I will say that the overhead of these copies should not matter much unless it's a large data structure (a table with lots of items.) or a cluster/class with many fields or containing large networks etc..
Example 1:
If the prototype does not change the data, then the compiler assumes that the crux of the call by reference will not alter the data. However, at runtime, a check is made to see if the real called VI will modify the data. If Yes, then a copy is made and past so that the original data can be modified.
Example 2:
If the prototype contains an entry that is wired through an exit so that both input and output terminals can use the same buffer memory, but running an audit determines that the real called entry and exit VI do not share a buffer, then a copy will be made from output of the actual call to the original screws (combined input and output) buffer.
I should also mention that, even with this behavior "are trying to get along with the prototype", it is not always possible to obtain good performance as a Subvi ordinary call. For example, if you have a situation where the prototype does not change the data and passes it through to an exit and then the compiler must assume that the data is changed (because, as in example 2, there are screws that may change even if the called real VI is not).
And there are a few caveats:
(1) this behavior "using a prototype" was new for 2009. Before that, we used a method more naïve data of passage that took all the entries will be changed and no outputs don't share a buffer with an entry.
(2) this behavior can be changed in future versions, if we find additional optimizations.
(3) this behavior is the same that we use for the dynamic distribution live (when you use the classes in LV)
(4) If you want to create a VI can be used as a prototype, you can use the features of the Structure in Place to control the "characteristics of the placeness', namely the element nodes in and out of the border, the function"Mark as modifier"border nodes (note the pencil icon on the item), and the node always one copy.
(5) the prototype is only the first reference ever connected to the node of the call by reference. So if you make a new prototype VI, you can just make a reference out of it plug into the crux of the call by reference. I suggest to remove the node from the call by reference and file a new.
(6) for remote calls, we still "making copies" by transmitting data over a network.
I hope that this helps, if you want information/clarification, so feel free to ask.
2 - is the call made by the reference to run in the user interface thread node? If the call is made by a remote machine via ethernet, thread that host (the computer that makes the call by reference) runs on and thread that executes the target (the machine that contains the file VI) on?
In the case of premises, the appeal made by the reference node does not require the user interface thread and may work in some thread the VI wants to run in.
When you call a remote VI, the appeal made by the reference node uses the UI thread (detailed below) on both the client and the server.
The client uses the UI thread to send the request to the server and there still when the response comes back. The user interface thread is not blocked during the time between the two.
The server receives the TCP message in the UI thread, and then starts the call to the UI thread. The server also uses the user interface thread to send the response to the client. The user interface thread is not blocked on the server during execution of the VI.
I hope that people find it when they need it!

Often lose ALL copy and paste function in all applications

The function stops working when all methods: menus in right-click of the mouse, help on keyboard shortcuts screen and buttons.
Only remedy was a full reboot, which works most of the time, but is a huge disadvantage because of the frequency with which this happens (4 to 6 times a week, sometimes several times a day).

Windows Vista black after login screen and Explorer has stopped working error
Hello world
I have a very big problem. Whenever I connect to my computer that is running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition all I get is a black screen and a mouse pointer. I can use Ctrl + Alt + Del or Alt + Ctr + Shift lift the the Task Manager, and from there I can run firefox. Once in Firefox I can use the option open the file to find programs, do a right-click and then run them. But I want my back office. When I try to run Explorer from the Task Manager and then I get an error message saying it stopped and must be closed. I also keep getting an error message for something like 'Windows Search Protocol Host' or somesuch. A large part of time that this will just about a five-minute cycle in a style of window minimized down thing then the error message poopping upwards. I am also quite unable to open Control Panel or MSCONFIG. Whenever I try that they freeze and I get an error message saying that they have a problem and need to close. Also I did not change my software recently. In fact it worked fine yesterday when I was with Photoshop Elements 7.0. Another thing that can help anyone trying to find an answer that is in most of the forums help I saw people talking about going into regedit (something I CAN open it) and put the shell on explorer.exe. Mine is already set to explorer.exe. It is also something else that many videos help and forums have said I should close explorer.exe in Task Manager process tab, then run it again. I don't have an explorer.exe in the processes tab and when I try to run it I just get "WIndows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close."
Please help people, I'm going nuts without a desk job.
PS. I use the computer with the problem to type this.

Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.
This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:
This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:
-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.htmlFor drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

My desktop right click function stopped working. This is a new load of Windows 7, the only thing I added is the gadget from Microsoft application launcher. I tried different mouse and all have the same fault. I use the Aero theme but others have tried without success.
Have I made a change to an admin somewhere feature that prevents users from the right click function?
Hi tsorf,
1. try to use the same mouse on another computer and check.
2 on which Windows are you clicking on? It happens on all windows, try clicking inside and on records.
