C++ Visualization API
« on: July 21, 2013, 08:21:53 am »

Using the C++, when the user presses the 'Stop' button the destructor of my IJRVisualization is called so I take that as my cue to do all of my cleanup, destroying and deleting. So, that last thing I do is DestroyWindow the HWND that I returned from the call to IJRVisualization::Create. Shortly after exiting my destructor and unloading my DLL MC18 exits/crashes. Nothing useful appears in the Output and I haven't the first clue how to go about debugging the cause of this. I'd be grateful for any help at all as this is a show-stopper for me right now.

Cleanup in the destructor is correct.

Is it possible you have a dangling thread or reference somewhere?

I'm not sure if the framework will have already destroyed your window or not, but I can tell you next week.  Or you could do ::IsWindow(m_hWnd) in the destructor and check.

Hi and thanks.
I know the Window is still valid at that point because the WM_DESTROY code in my window proc is getting executed. Having said that, I should be doing that check anyway.

I've stripped the plugin right back, so my rendering thread and calls to JR automation are all commented out. The only thing I hold on to is a static HWND pointing to MC's parent window (from the Create call). I create a child window and DX9 context in it and then clean all that stuff up in my destructor. Any more light you can shed would help.
(As a last resort is there a possibility you might look at the code in a debugger at your end? Cheeky, I know)
