Hi all of you.
I come here with a problem: can I use command line to open the same application, but different file ? How ?
Here is the situation: I have a SDI app, with CView based on CEditView, which can load text files. The particularity is that whether if I open another text file, the second text from second file is appended on the previous text. The application is called "TextStitch".
How have I done that ? Here is the code (simple code):
Now, the trouble is coming when I want to open a text file, with my application, TextStitch.exe, from command line:
and I am trying to open the second text file, but with the same instance:
but no, there is open the second instance of TextStitch.exe, with text2.txt file ...
I know, I can make the application as single instance, something like that:
where g_sMutexName ahs the ID of my app. But here, I didn't have the path of the text file in order to load into my app ...
Can you help me ? Thank you.
