Measurement Studio for VC++

Visual C++ (componentwork++):
My worker thread:

UINT GetDataThreadProc(LPVOID lParam)
{
double value;

double Data[100];
CMyDlg *pWnd = (CMyDlg *)lParam;




::WaitForSingleObject(g_eventStart.m_hObject, INFINITE);
TRACE("starting computation\n");
while(g_iBeginGetDataProc)
{
for (int ptIndex = 0; ptIndex < 100; ptIndex++)
{
const double maxValue = 10.0;
value = (double)rand()/RAND_MAX * maxValue;
Data[ptIndex] = value;

TRACE (" %d %f\n", ptIndex, Data[ptIndex]);
}
TRACE ("Ok\n");
//---------------------------------------------------
-----------------------
// plot the time domain data
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
pWnd->m_timeDomainGraph.PlotY(CNiReal64Matrix(1, 100, Data));


if (::WaitForSingleObject(g_eventKill.m_hObject, 0) == WAIT_OBJECT_0)
{
TRACE ("Break\n");
break;
}

}
// tell owner window we're finished
:ostMessage((HWND) lParam, WM_THREADFINISHED, 0, 0);

return 0; // ends the thread
}

The current version of the Tools for Visual C++ do not support access of our UI ActiveX controls from multiple threads. The next version should have support for this. This is discussed in detail in the KB here:

There is also an example of the workaround for this problem here:
