[Dev-C++] Priority Defualt

[Rhys O. <ska...@ho...>]

Hi, I want to know how to set the default priority of a C++ program to 
realtime (in windows).
If you know how to do this, or want me to be more specific, please reply.

Cheers

I assume you mean how to have the program set it's own priority to the 
real time class.

The following is a snippet from some code I wrote.

# define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN 1
# include <windows.h>*

...
*
  if(SetPriorityClass( GetCurrentProcess(), IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS) == 0)
  {
    cout << "\nError setting priority for process id #" << 
GetCurrentProcessId() << endl;
    cout << "Error # = " << GetLastError() << endl;
  }

Look for the documentation for the constant for the real-time class. If 
you want the rest of the stuff in windows.h then you can remove the lean 
and mean define.
