NTDEV

Hi All,

I have a requirement to send windows messages to a NT service. Also can I
create send a windows message without creating a (dummy) window within the
service?

Please give me your suggestions how I can proceed on this.

Thanks & Regards,
Parswanath Dhanadevan

You can send messages for any thread without creating any windows.

Your threads should have a wait - and you use MsgWaitForMultipleObjects API
call. Threads have a message loop. You can use GetMessage and PeekMessage
after the wait.

There’s good doc in the SDK on MsgWaitForMultipleObjects.

In your thread, use MsgWaitForMultipleObjects. Each thread has a msg
queue
