Re: Reading Serial Port
OK, so it looks like pMySerial has another worker thread (pReaderThread)
that needs to be ended when pMySerial thread is ending? That's what the
above 2 lines say.
Yes, Inside my MySerial UI thread I have a worker thread
(ReaderThread ). I explained it some post ago.
pReaderThread = AfxBeginThread( ReaderThread, this,
THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL );
This is how I create it.
Set a breakpoint in pReaderThread that is waiting for ShutdownEvent. Does
it get it? Does it properly exit the thread function when it does get it?
I set a breakpoint where ReaderThread gets ShutdownEvent and it
reaches ok.
When the thread function is exited, WFSO returns, and
pReaderThread->m_hThread is nomore. You should close its handle:
CloseHandle( pReaderThread->m_hThread);
Sorry, I look better for the problem and I found that actually it pass
ok through that WFSO( pReaderThread->m_hThread, INFINITE ). That was
another problem (not related) and all code is executed, but still with
that memory leak:
MySerial.cpp(21) : {120} client block at 0x00432410, subtype 0, 224
bytes long. a MySerial object at $00432410, 224 bytes long
That points to
IMPLEMENT_DYNCREATE(MySerial, CWinThread)
in my header.
Also, the WM_MY_SERIAL_CLOSE handler does not terminate the pMySerial
thread! You need to add this after pReaderThread has successfully
terminated:
PostThreadMessage (GetCurrentThreadId(), WM_QUIT, 0, 0);
Doesn't do this the PostQuitMessage(0); I already have? (You can see
it some post 5 post above)
