application launch @ startup

hi all,

in my platform.reg file i have included this registry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Launch95"="audio.dll"
"Launch96"="audevman.dll"
"Launch97"="waveapi.dll"
"Launch98"="wavplay.exe"
"Depend98"=hex:0A,00, 14,00, 5F,00, 60,00, 61,00


where is see, wavplay.exe is dependent on shell.exe, device.exe, audio.dll,
audevman.dll, waveapi.dll
thus the "Depend98" key there.

but even then the system does not play the default file.

it says 'error in opening 98' and error code: 2

i have added this statement to my application:
SignalStarted(_wtol(lpCmdLine));

where 'lpCmdLine' has some default file path which exists.

any reasons why wavplay.exe application is not playing @ startup ?

regards
sajid

Is the file you're trying to access available at this time, and are you
accessing it correctly?

You aren't trying to load drivers with that registry are you?

I have never seen that before, and can't image that it works. Drivers are
loaded by other exes using registry keys that are specific to those exes.

Yes Dean,

i have included the default file in my image through the project.bib FILES
section.
if i play that default file manually after startup, it plays.

Hi Bruce,

i am not sure that i can include .dlls in the registry way as .exes are done
earlier, i tried using this registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Launch98"="wavplay.exe"

this too did not play the default file.
so i tried including all those dependencies for this application, to make
sure they are loaded before this application is run.
but, i would like to know the better and right way of launching application
with dependencies [as in my case] @ startup.

regards
sajid

Dean did not ask if the file is in your image, he asked if the file system
is ready to provide it to you that early in the boot cycle.

Running an application that early, you might find that some drivers are
still initializing. Try putting a call to Sleep at the start of you app
with a few seconds delay. See if that fixes the problem. That is not the
solution though, just a test.

I have been assuming that your app actually started, then an error occured,
that may not be the case. Your wavplay.exe is in the image isn't it? And
the name is right?

It might be time to break out the debugger. Put a breakpoint in your it and
reboot.

Hi Bruce,

you are right,
wavplay.exe does gets started but but it somehow fails in ReadWaveFile
function with error = 1,
which seams that it is not able to find existing file.

sajid

moreover, i have used "SignalStarted" in wavplay application.
like:
SignalStarted(_wtol(lpCmdLine));

where, lpCmdLine = TEXT("windows\\startup.wav");
i have included this file in image through project.bib

Error code 2 (mentioned in your previous postings)

reduce the time depending on its consistency.
