Hi,

Just wondering if that can be used for window callbacks? Like the following:

LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)

If it can be used, how do I do it? Or if it can't, do I create a window and wait for the callback?

The sole purpose of main_thread_callback is to allow you to run some code in the context of the main thread in response to something in a background thread. You only need that if you have no window that would be appropriate to use with PostMessage.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Skype's Plugin API does a callback to the window handle you specify it to. This is so that you can send stuff to it...like the personal message feature in Skype .

Trying to do that..the only way I see so far is to create a window and ask skype to reply to that window handle. Just wondering if I can use main_thread_callback for this purpose instead of creating a window.

Just a quick example from some code from Google: http://www.nah6.com/~itsme/cvs-xdadevtools...skypeapilog.cpp

I'm still learning c++ and playing around with it ~

No, you can't. I'm afraid that because it needs a window handle, you won't be able to use an internal function of Foobar2000 and you will have to create a Windows window as anyone else :(
