Hi @CybeX, and to add to @JKSH: you probably want to use GetFinalPathNameByHandleW as this is the UNICODE version. Regards

@Chris-Kawa wow, so simple :) and so fast answer!! woooow Thank you very much! Its works! void MainWindow::onStatusChanged(PVOID p) { qDebug() << "void *p address" << p; SERVICE_NOTIFY_2A* temp_pNotifyBuffer = static_cast<SERVICE_NOTIFY_2A*>(p); //MainWindow* ptr_mainWindow = static_cast<MainWindow*>(p); //qDebug() << ptr_mainWindow->m_test_string; qDebug() << temp_pNotifyBuffer->pContext; qDebug() << static_cast<MainWindow*>(temp_pNotifyBuffer->pContext)->m_test_string; } Service man opened pcontext address 0x8ff6a0 void *p address 0x8ff6bc 0x8ff6a0 "look it" I was misled that in Visual studio the example with "direct" transformation worked. And I went the wrong way ..

I know that I can use QDialog to create Window instead of WinApi. But I think this example is very easy, so I think there is another way...

Maybe I expressed myself incorrectly. By native I meant that uses the WinMain function as an entry point, for example. Something like the code in the link I've poste. But If you can provide some example code on HOW I can use Qt and the win32 APi and Direct X 11, I'd appreaciate it. I have not been able to find ANYTHING online. Just a simple open a window and draw a circle or something will do. I want to know how con configure the .pro so that it will find all the appropriate libraries and the code will compile.

@kshegunov said in App crushes when Qt core calls WinAPI's "DispatchMessage" function: This address is rather suspicious. Please tell me you don't have global QWidgets? No, I have only a dll with function extern "C" CORE_SHARED_API QMainWindow * svCreateMainWindow() { return new MainWindow; } (CORE_SHARED_API is __declspec(dllexport)) @kshegunov said in App crushes when Qt core calls WinAPI's "DispatchMessage" function: Btw, 0xc0000409 is stack overflow, so be on the lookout for endless recursion. As I said, QWindowsGuiEventDispatcher::processEvents() is called twice, and I believe those calls are on the same stack level (crush happens in the second call).

Thanks, SGaist. QtSingleApplicaiton is an alternative solution to singleton , I will make a try.

@Chris-Kawa Thanks a lot your answer solve my dude thanks a lot. The system of resources of Qt is awesome and more easy to use so it's better. Anyways i was trying to understand more about windows api and with these explications i understand now thanks.

@Thynome Hi, Well, you're stuck with C when working with the WinApi. It sucks, I know, but you need to transfer the context (the object) through a global variable. You can look here for some inspiration - WindowsCtrlDispatcher::instance is the context that's transferred to the VOID WINAPI ServiceMain(DWORD, LPTSTR *) function. I hope that helps. Kind regards.

@SGaist said: Indeed, but I wouldn't be surprised if that changed at some point :D Perhaps, perhaps. Although, judging from the time it took MS to introduce the x64 compiler, if it were to change, it'd take decades. And since it hasn't changed for over 30 years, I really doubt that it ever will. :D
