Re: when my window talks to my thread

hi,

I started my ui thread like this

theApp.m_uithread=(CMyUIThread*)AfxBeginThread(RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyUIThread));

and I have a window that talks to it like this

CMyWnd::MyFunction() {
theApp.m_uithread->PostThreadMessageW( ... );
}

but when I lock like this

CMyWnd::MyFunction() {
theApp.m_uithread->PostThreadMessageW( ... );
m_myCEvent = new CEvent();
m_myCEvent->Lock();
}

it gets in a deadlock and the function in my ui thread that I called
via theApp.m_uithread->PostThreadMessageW stops running.

Is what I am calling a ui thread really a ui thread? Am I doing it
right? Is the window thread and the ui thread separate? thx
