Hi,

My program uses memory mapped file backed by paging file to
communicate with another process. It calls CreateFileMapping only once
at startup and calls MapViewOfFile each time it needs to share data
with the other process. As the program runs over time I find that task
manager shows huge PF usage over 1GB. I have checked each
MapViewofFile call has a corresponding UnmapViewOfFile call and
OpenFileMapping has a corresponding CloseHandle() call. But the PF
usage seems to be ever-growing.

Many thanks
Timmy

comment. Google EXIF together with JPEG. There...

Yes, some database programs will allow you to store images in records.

If you want something simpler, since all the other information is just
plain text, why not create a directory to store the image files. Then
in the data, include the full path and file name to the image file.

Hello All,

I'm creating a memory device context by calling CreateComaptibleDC,
selecting a bitmap to it (created with CreateDIBSection), and then drawing
text using DrawText. This looks greate if my display is 24 bit or 32 bit
color. However, if the display is less than that, the true-type fonts look
like crud (jaggy edges).

Here's a code snip:

HDC pDC = GetDC(0);
HDC TmpDC=CreateCompatibleDC(pDC);
...
HFONT m_Font=CreateFontIndirect( &lfont );
HFONT pOldFont = (HFONT)SelectObject(TmpDC,m_Font);
...
HBITMAP
TmpBmp=CreateDIBSection(TmpDC,&bmInfo,DIB_RGB_COLORS,(void**)&pbase,0,0);
HGDIOBJ TmpObj=SelectObject(TmpDC,TmpBmp);
...
DrawText(TmpDC, "Text" ,4, &pos, DT_NOPREFIX| DT_LEFT );
