BillP Studios
I have a pretty straight forward call that I've used for years but apparently isn't working on Vista. I've searched all the Vista development materials I could with reference to PlaySound but nothing seems to indicate I need to make a change.
What I currently have is...
PlaySound(MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_WOOF),hInst, SND_RESOURCE | SND_SYNC | SND_NOWAIT);
For any of you who use WinPatrol, if you have Vista you may have noticed that Scotty doesn't bark anymore when there's a change detected. The number one complaint I've had with the new WinPatrol 2007 is they miss Scotty barking. I have a new build ready for release but I would like to include a fix for this one.
Any tips or links to more information would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Bill

- Active Movie Window appearing while using Video Mixing Renderer 9 in windowless mode Hi everybody. I encountered a problem while using the Video Mixing Renderer 9 to display video file and camera. In fact, each time I change the video file to play, I destroy the graph by that I mean I remove all the filters in the graph. Then, I build a new graph again including the Video Mixing Renderer in it. The problem is that it works fine for a moment but while using about 10 times this method, my video is not shown and there is an Active Movie Window which appear and displays nothing in it. I haven't find out what was the problem. Could somebody help please Thanks in advance Tag: PlaySounds fails under Vista

- Polling does not work on Dual Core To pass trough the complex synchronisation mechanism in a multithreaded application and still have the look and feel of such an architecture, the easiest way is to have a single process application and distribute the processor to several inner tasks. It looks like rewriting Windows Scheduler but indeed it is just a 200 line assembly program plus some Wait and Signal in a higher level language. Doing that get ridd of the preemptive nature of Windows and synchronizing such inner tasks is quite simple (Comunicating Sequential Processses). The designing constraint is that the Window process should never block itself on a waitng function because it woul block all the inner tasks. The documentation of SDK indicates every where that this solution was planned by the designers of Windows. The GetMessage function in the message loop can be substituted by the non blocking PeekMessage functions. The OverlappedIO mechanism needs a synchronisation point that can be done with the non blocking SleepEx function giving a 0 delay. In Winsock, the Select instruction to test for the success of a Connect can be non blocking giving a zero delay. And it works fine but the Task manager indicates a 100% use of the process. This is purely satistics because in parallel you can play a movie with no noticeable difference. On a Intel Dual Core there exists a mechanism to lower the processor frequency. In that case, the frequency is not lowered, the processor heats up and the fan start pushing air, making the polling solution unusable. Question What is the instruction to lower the frequency of the processor in a Dual Core Tag: PlaySounds fails under Vista

- Locking problem with file that has OTF extension Hi, We have an application that uses its own files with OTF extension (The file is not Open Type font file) When trying to delete a file with OTF extension, Windows Vista failed to delete the file with message "ˇfile is open in another application". This problem happens only after the file is shown in explorer. Deleting the file using batch/script is possible before file is shown in explorer. i.e. the file is locked when shown in explorer.

- TreeView TVM_SETITEM message Andy, Thanks for your reply, I've actually almost done with everything in application except the restore. The reason I'm using NTBACKUP for this solution is, it uses Volume Shadow Copy to copy files even when Windows is running and most of the files are in use and locked and it takes System State backup that restores all settings, user accounts, registry, even the user's passwords as it was before crash. Is there any other third party backup solution in your knowledge that restores the exact Windows OS state I tried sending BN_CLICKED, WM_KEYDOWN, WM_KEYUP messages to TreeView and to specific Tree Item but couldn't able to check the item checkbox. Can you guide me how can I check the checkbox by sending "Space" key or "Click" message to TreeView. regards, Adil Tag: PlaySounds fails under Vista

- Vihang's Re-hosting Workflow Designer tool implementation issues?? Vihang, I have downloaded the Re-hosting Workflow Designer tool sample you created. I have XOML only State workflow that references assemblies (does not use x:Class attribute in the root node) and uses namespaces with namespace aliases for specific activities that are used in the XOML only workflow. Can you please modify this example to work with XOML only state workflow that can reference namespaced references (for codebeside and for coded activities). Below is the xoml file that I need to load, update, and save. It would also be nice if I could compile it without errors. The main issues are referencing namespaces instead of code-behind class and activities (i.e., activities need to be referenced via namespaces). Please review the xoml workflow below and provide feedback. ------------------------------------------------------------------- < ns0:BaseOrderWorkflow x:Name="XOMLBagTagWorkflow" EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_ToEmail="{x:Null}" EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_EmailBody="{x:Null}" EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_FromEmail="{x:Null}" EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_EmailSubject="{x:Null}" EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_FromName="{x:Null}" MRSchedule="{p1:Null}" CompanyCode="{p1:Null}" ToEmail="{p1:Null}" ToEmailManager="{x:Null}" EmailSubject="{x:Null}" RegionID="{x:Null}" ResultsMessage="" EmailBody="{x:Null}" ResultsC1Report="{x:Null}" ToEmailAdmin="{x:Null}" FromName="{x:Null}" DynamicUpdateCondition="{x:Null}" FromEmail="{x:Null}" ReportName="{x:Null}" LocationID="{x:Null}" DataIn="{x:Null}" ResultsReport="{x:Null}" InitialStateName="WaitingForBagTagState" FileName="{x:Null}" ResultsData="{x:Null}" CompletedStateName="BagTagCompletedState" xmlns=" http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/workflow " xmlns: ns1 ="clr-namespace:BagTagActivity;Assembly= BagTagActivity , Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" xmlns: ns2 ="clr-namespace: ADPSendEmail ;Assembly=ADPSendEmail, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" xmlns:x=" http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml " xmlns:p1=" http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml " xmlns: ns0 ="clr-namespace: iServeWorkflows ;Assembly=iServeWorkflows, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null"> <StateActivity x:Name="WaitingForBagTagState"> <EventDrivenActivity x:Name="BagTagCreatedEvent"> <HandleExternalEventActivity Invoked="{ActivityBind XOMLBagTagWorkflow,Path=BagTagCreated_Invoked}" x:Name="BagTagCreatedHandleExternalActivity" EventName="BagTagCreated" InterfaceType="{x:Type p11:IOrderService,TypeName=OrderLocalServices.IOrderService}" xmlns:p11="clr-namespace:OrderLocalServices;Assembly=iServeWorkflows, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" /> <IfElseActivity x:Name="CheckSourceEmail"> <IfElseBranchActivity x:Name="ifValidSender"> <IfElseBranchActivity.Condition> <RuleConditionReference ConditionName="Condition1" /> </IfElseBranchActivity.Condition> <CodeActivity x:Name="ValidSenderEmailAddress" ExecuteCode="{ActivityBind XOMLBagTagWorkflow,Path=ValidSender}" /> </IfElseBranchActivity> <IfElseBranchActivity x:Name="ifInvalidSender"> <CodeActivity x:Name="InvalidSenderEmailAddress" ExecuteCode="{ActivityBind XOMLBagTagWorkflow,Path=InvalidSender}" /> </IfElseBranchActivity> </IfElseActivity> <ns2:ADPWSSendEmail toA="{ActivityBind XOMLBagTagWorkflow,Path=EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_ToEmail}" x:Name="BagTagInitializeEmailActivity" subj="{ActivityBind XOMLBagTagWorkflow,Path=EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_EmailSubject}" name="{ActivityBind XOMLBagTagWorkflow,Path=EmailCreatedSendEmailActivity_FromName}" Description="Sends email that Creation of Bag Tag is starting." body="Starting to print the BagTag.

- instanceOwnershipDuration and websites I have an IIS based website using a workflow. It contains delays of a variable length in order to make timeouts expire at a fixed point every week, and the workglow. On the whole, it seems to be working, but I want to confirm the workflow persistence time settings. I'm happy with a delay resolution of 1 minute, so I assume that setting the loadingInterval to 1 minute will be fine for this. However, I'm not sure what the appropriate value for instanceOwnershipDuration should be. Nominally, the work done in the workflow takes negligible time, although in fact it occasionally sends email, which can take a few seconds. Should I be setting instanceOwnershipDuration to safely longer than the email interval, here What happens if two pages referring to the same wortkflow are loaded in quick succession - does the second one fail because the persistence store records that the workflow is owned by another process, or does it wait for the workflow to be released (and for how long), or what I'm also seeing an occasional error message of the nature 'Queue 'Message properties: ...' is not enabled'. I can't quite figure out what circumstances cause this to happen, and I wondered if it might be related. Tag: PlaySounds fails under Vista

- Is it a bug of socket on vista? my program's work flow: my program have two part: server and client client(vista) broadcasts packets(255.255.255.255) to discover server, then server reponses some information to client. If the server(not vista) is in the same network section with client, it sends unicast packet to client; and if in different section, it broadcasts(255.255.255.255) inforamtion to client. they works very well when the server and client are in the same network section, but in different section, the client can't receive the broadcast packet. And on XP/2000, the client can work well in these two case. my code about the client : sock = socket ( AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0); nReturn = setsockopt ( sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BROADCAST, (CHAR *) &bBroadcast, sizeof( BOOL ) ); if ( SOCKET_ERROR == nReturn ) { closesocket(sock); return FALSE; } dsUdpCli.sin_family = AF_INET; dsUdpCli.sin_addr.s_addr =INADDR_ANY; dsUdpCli.sin_port = htons ( 0 ); nReturn = bind ( sock, (SOCKADDR *) &dsUdpCli, sizeof ( SOCKADDR_IN ) ); if ( SOCKET_ERROR == nReturn ) { closesocket(sock); return FALSE; } nTemp=RECV_BUF; setsockopt(sock,SOL_SOCKET,SO_RCVBUF,(char *)&nTemp,sizeof(int)); dsUdpServ.sin_family = AF_INET; dsUdpServ.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl ( INADDR_BROADCAST ); dsUdpServ.sin_port = htons ( 0x868a ); nReturn = sendto ( sock, szMessage, nTemp, 0, (SOCKADDR *) &dsUdpServ, sizeof ( SOCKADDR_IN ) ); if ( SOCKET_ERROR == nReturn ) { closesocket(sock); return FALSE; } FD_ZERO(&temp_set); FD_SET(sock, &temp_set); while(1) { if(select(0, &temp_set, NULL, NULL, &temp_timeout) == 0) { break; } nSize = sizeof ( SOCKADDR_IN ); nReturn = recvfrom ( sock, szMessage, MAX_RECV_LEN, 0, (SOCKADDR *) &dsUdpCli, &nSize ); if ( SOCKET_ERROR == nReturn ) { return FALSE; } printf("Discovered a server.\n"); } closesocket(sock); Tag: PlaySounds fails under Vista

- C: restoration failure leading to an uninstallation and an installation failure of Vista. Hi, because i wanted to renew the system, i started the C: restoration that was included in my Viao laptop. it was going smoothly until just black covered my screen. by accident, my mother thinking that it was an error, forced shut down by pressing on for a long time. the next time i pressed on, in safe mode, safe mode with commanp prompt safe mode with , it says "Winsdows cannot complete installation in Safe Mode. To continue installing Windows, restart the computer." then i clicked ok and it restarted. it turned on perfectly fine but before i can log on, there was a sign which said 'Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on his computer, restart the installation' but unfortunately i did not use the CD because the Windows Vista was installed in the laptop beforehand. now i cannot get on my computer at all, and what should i do How do i restart the installation without the CD I really need it to be fixed before summer vacation ends.

- Self-updating application if you can read and write to a location, you can generally execute from it, stuff runs out of your temp folders most of the time when you run an application installer, for example. If one of your requirements is that you don't needlessly download the tools that perform the update every time, maybe you can keep a copy of them in the program directory, then copy the one or two files necessary to install the update to the temp directory you download and extract downloadedupdate.zip to. If downloadedupdate.zip contains updated copies of the update tools, they'll then be able to write over the copies in the program directory, and every user will have the updated copies. basically: mainapp [asInvoker] running out of \programfiles\mainappfolder\ finds an update, drops it to %temp%\downloadedupdate.zip, extracts to %temp%\new-well-chosen-temporary-directory-name\updatefiles\ copies updateinstaller.exe [requireAdministrator] and updatehelper.exe [asInvoker] to %temp%\new-well-chosen-temporary-directory-name\ launches updatehelper.exe, running out of %temp%\new-well-chosen-temporary-directory-name\ updatehelper.exe launches with ShellExecute updateinstaller.exe (running out of %temp%\new-well-chosen-temporary-directory-name\), which looks under .\updatefiles, installs all of those to the \programfiles\mainappfolder directory, exits updatehelper.exe relaunches mainapp.exe once updateinstaller.exe terminates.

I can't believe I couldn't get an answer to this one here. You guys have always come through before.
I can't be the only one having this problem.
I even tried calling and paying for an incident report but it took over 45 minutes for them to figure out if it should fall under me being a registered partner, Empowered ISV or just some guy off the street.
They finally wanted to send me to Vista user support not developers.
Anyone still want a challenge I have a new build going out this week.

I hate posting "me too"...but I'm hitting this with a pretty simple call to PlaySound as well.
PlaySound(szPath, NULL, SND_FILENAME | SND_ASYNC);
Funny thing is, I get a "success" response from the API, but no sound. And, yes, I've verified that the sound exists and has not changed from my XP application.
Re: PlaySounds fails under Vista
Sikma
If you don't pass in SND_ASYNC, you will get a 0 result (or at least, that's what I've observed). PlaySound will return 1 when SND_ASYNC is passed in when the sound has been put onto the queue. If you do a search on MSDN for playsound, you will find a blog that describes much of its behaviour (from one of its creators, I think).

Still no answer here.
Apparently Microsoft says I don't have any incident calls left so I still haven't gotten an answer.
I can't believe more people haven't had this problem so I appreciate the "me too" 's

Re: PlaySounds fails under Vista

WooHoo...
I'm happy to report a solution to my PlaySound problem under Vista.
Credit goes to Larry Osterman ( http://blogs.msdn.com/larryosterman/ ) who took the time to help and acknowledged that Vista was a little more picky about the format used in WAV files.
It turns out the cbSize byte was incorrect in the WAVEFORMATEX structure. I've been using an old wav editor called CoolEdit96 and obviously I need a newer wav editing program. Modifying the wav file did the trick.
My fans of Scotty who use Vista will be very happy.
Good Luck and enjoy,
