Topic: GdiPlus Registering Race Condition

Subject: GdiPlus Registering Race Condition

Hello,

when creating two different CXTPMarkupContexts both call in their constructor the function CXTPMarkupDrawingContext::Register(TRUE). As this leads to a registering of the CXTPSingleton CXTPGdiPlus 2x sometimes an assertion will be caused, when we got a bad timing.

Can anyone please help me solve this issue by fixing the race condition or telling me if I've used these classes in a wrong way and how to use them correctly?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Hello Martin, how I can reproduce it with our samples?

Hello,

the easiest way would be to implement a sample that uses multithreading and do something like the following all the time until you get into the race condition:

  CSampleMarkupView* Wnd_ = new CSampleMarkupView(); //Calls CXTPMarkupDrawingContext::Register(TRUE) -> calls CXTPGdiPlus::Register(TRUE)
  // with ASSERT(m_nGdiplusToken == 0 && m_hModule == 0) (XTPGdiPlus.cpp Line 61)
 
  delete Wnd_; //Calls CXTPMarkupDrawingContext::Register(FALSE) -> calls CXTPGdiPlus::Register(FALSE)
  /*
    XTPGdiPlus.cpp Line 75ff:
      m_nCount--;

      if (m_nCount != 0)
      return;
      -----------------> if another thread that wants to call CXTPMarkupDrawingContext::Register(TRUE) interrupts our thread we got an assertion (ASSERT(m_nGdiplusToken == 0 && m_hModule == 0)) in XTPGdiPlus.cpp Line 61

      if (m_hModule)
      {
        // Termination of background thread, which is causing the shutdown problem.
        gdiplusStartupOutput.NotificationUnhook(m_nGdiplusToken);
        GdiplusShutdown(m_nGdiplusToken);
        FreeLibrary(m_hModule);
      }
      m_hModule = NULL;
      m_nGdiplusToken = 0;
   */


using:
class CSampleMarkupView : public CWnd, CXTPMarkupContext {
public:
  CSampleMarkupView() : CWnd(), CXTPMarkupContext() {}
  virtual ~CSampleMarkupView() {}
};

Best regards

Was this problem related to your program?
