A splashscreen is nothing more than a borderless window. Create a window, show it from your main function, start the thread and wait for it until it's done. Close the splash window, and show the main window.

i don't know how to do that because i got a lot of experience with java but it takes too much to load. can you make it for me? thanks

Are you writing in MFC ? If not, what project type are you using ?

my project is written in java. i need a program that shows a splash screen and waits until it gets terminated. the splash screen will be executed by a c++ app that just starts up the jre. i don't know what MFC means unfortunately because i'm a real newbie to c++

check the attachment.. it will serves your purpose properly.. use SplashClient.Cpp to show splash and put ur initialization code in place of Sleep() fn.

This files are written in MFC.

I think you are looking for ShellExecute.

I dont think so.. Can u understand his words "version of execl" ??

c++ version of execL. A execute command... hence the shellexecute.

okay..

sorry for my bad english. shellexecute works fine!
thanks a lot!

I too would like to create a splash screen (non mfc). I was just wondering what the standard size is for a splash screen(width/height) and how I can show it in the very center of the screen (in a nutshell, how calculate x,y based on the screen resolution)

thanks
