I am stuck on create new console window for my console application, for logger. That code works fine for GUI apps, but not work for console, and they require: CreateProcess function with the DETACHED_PROCESS flag.
Logger Log;
DWORD PiD;
void __stdcall LoggerCore(PVOID pVoid)
{
AllocConsole();
while(true)
{
SetConsoleTitleA(Log.LoggerTittle());
Sleep(5000);
}
_endthread();
}
char* Logger::LoggerTittle()
{
static char Tittle[55];
sprintf(Tittle, "Debug Logger");
return Tittle;
}
void Logger::LoggerInit()
{
CreateThread( 0 , 0 , (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE) LoggerCore , 0 , 0 , &PiD );
}
And that code, create a new console when app is GUI, and display "Log.ConsoleOutPut(1, c_Green,t_Default,"Debug Logger: SomeInfo");" in new console window. But all of that, not work for console application. So, how i can make a second console window in console application by using CreateProcess? Thanks for advice!
So, i am try to re-write it, but nothing... that is not works for me.
#include logger.h
char Message[1024];
Logger Log;
DWORD PiD;

So, now my problem is - CreateProcess failed <2>, and when i am set TCHAR program[]=TEXT("application.exe"); - they launch many copies of that program, when i am set param in NULL - they return me <87> error... And they send logs to primary console window (app window).
