hi there

i am developing a vc++ 6 mfc app, with codejock, and in this app i embed the Flash ActiveX control to play some flash movies for me

in all version of flash <= 9.*, it works fine, but in version 10.* of Flash, at a certain point in playing my swf movie, it generates a "chkesp.c stack problem" vc++ debug error, which is generated in the lowlevel framework hooking functions, and is more than likely due to the fact that a function is assumed to be of a certain prototype, but has been compiled as another

i saw a post last year of someone who had a similar issue (see https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10171 - https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10171 ), and they solved it by "removing the window handle from the skin framework"

i feel this might be the solution to my problem - remove the window handle which contains the activex object from the skin framework - but how do i do this??????

i would be most grateful for *any* help

regards
bhu

Hello,

Check what flash dlls loaded and call

XTPSkinManager()->ExcludeModule("thisdllname.dll") before you load them.

fantastic - that works!!!!! i am soooooo happy!

it wasn't in CXTPSkinManager for v11.1.0 so i copied the (trivial) method across as per 13.0.0

before you posted this reply, i had hacked into CXTPSkinManagerApiHook::OnHookCreateThread() and wrote a hack that excluded any lpStartAddress that was in the range i noticed was related to Flash ocx - an ugly hack that worked but i am *much* happier with this method, of course

i wish i had've come to the forums sooner, i was so completely bamboozled by it i got misdirected - i thought it was an issue inside the flash ocx (which it kinda is)

anyway, thanks!

I noticed that my normal thread manager was creating threads that are also managed by the skin framework, which I don't think is desirable. It caused a deadlock in the CXTPSkinManagerApiHook::ThreadProcHook on shutdown. So, I called XTPSkinManager()->SetAutoApplyNewThreads(false); and this solved the problem.
