[RESOLVED] GUI and Console Application within single application

Hi Guys,

today i am in some very diiferent scenario

My client needed a GUI and Console Application within single application.

I am able to achieve using just wriiten Main and then called WinMain based on commnadline parameters

Code:

---

        HINSTANCE inst;
        inst=(HINSTANCE)GetModuleHandle(NULL);
        WinMain(inst,NULL,buf,SW_SHOWNORMAL);

---

But if commnadline parameters say should be window based, then i hide console window using

Code:

---

                HWND console = GetConsoleWindow();
                ConsoleWindow = 0;
                if(IsWindow(console))
                        ShowWindow(console,SW_HIDE); // hides the window

---

but as i tried to hide, it created an issue for me when i run this application on console window, it hide console window.

so is there any way so i will be able to get whether it is run through Windows double click or througth console window. or any good solution for this issue

not worked as if launched from console window it will not leave console application

Whenever I have that requirement, I just create a dialog application and show the dialog or not depending on command line switches.

it will have same issue like
it will be deattached from parent console window if i run application as console mode in console window.
