Hi ...Now I render my document using the statement below ...
RenderDocument(doc, bc,MyProgressHook,pd, bmOutput,RENDERFLAG_EXTERNAL,NULL);
It's working like "Render To PictureViewer"
It's working ... but if the user want to break the render using Ctrl+Break ... it's not responding ...
I read the threads about breaking render ...
I try to use TestBreak ... but it's not working ...
Please anybody can tell me in detail ...?
Thanks in advance ...

i think you have to give it a Thread in stead of NULL.
The thread is waiting for the testbreak and should then stop the rendering -

Take a look at the section of code where RenderDocument() is called in simplematerial.cpp and particlevolume.cpp in the plugins:cinema4dsdk folder. There you see how they get the thread.

My plugin is a dialog plugin ...
When the user presses a button ... The user will see the Picture Viewer rendering ...
When redering is done the user will get a bitmap file ...
But while rendering ... the user cannot have a break on that render ... bcos I render like this ...RenderDocument(doc, bc,MyProgressHook,pd, bmOutput,RENDERFLAG_EXTERNAL,NULL);
Some old threads told me to use TestBreak() ...
For that I create a class called myThread ...class myThread:public Thread
{
public:
myThread();
virtual void Main(void);
};myThread::myThread()
{
}void myThread::Main(void)
{
//...
}Then when I call RenderDocument() ...
myThread *thdRender=new myThread;
RenderDocument(doc, bc,MyProgressHook,pd, bmOutput,RENDERFLAG_EXTERNAL,thdRender->Get());If I did like above ... the code that I wrote in MyProgressHook was not running ...
And if I insert the line thdRender->TestBreak() ... it's not still working ...But I'd go on ...

If you want to use your own thread to test for breaks, make sure that it is running!
You're going to need to call thdRender->Start() before calling RenderDocument() and End() afterwards. You will also need to implement myThread::TestDBreak() unless you want a deadlock situation.
Try something like this and see if it works:
class myThread:public Thread { public: myThread(); virtual void Main(void); virtual Bool TestDBreak(); }; myThread::myThread() { } void myThread::Main(void) { //... } // This tests for the Esc key to break the thread Bool myThread::TestDBreak() { BaseContainer keyinput; return (GetInputEvent(BFM_INPUT_KEYBOARD, keyinput) && (keyinput.GetLong(BFM_INPUT_CHANNEL) == KEY_ESC)); } ... myThread *thdRender=new myThread; if (!thdRender->Start(TRUE)) // Error starting thread RenderDocument(doc, bc,MyProgressHook,pd, bmOutput,RENDERFLAG_EXTERNAL,thdRender->Get()); thdRender->End(); -

Really thank you again ...
Now I try to check if ESC is pressed ( in ProgressHook ) ... and it's OK ... The plugin knows when ESC is pressed ... But I don't know how to stop the rendering ...
I forgot to tell that I'm still using NULL as the last parameter instead of thdRender->Get() ... bcos' if I didn't use NULL ... the code I'm writing in ProgressHook is not working ...
In ProgressHook I call the ShowBitmap with the current bitmap ... So it's changing all the time while rendering ...So I'm a bit lost ...
But Robert ... you answers helped a lot ...
And I hope you will go on ...Zaw Min Tun

Hmmm, the way the documentation reads, RenderDocument() should be using the passed Thread as a sort of 'overlord' to test for a user break. This should stop the render automatically - theoretically and assuming these points.
One question though: Are you using a clone of the BaseDocument!!? As the docs state: Must be a clone of the real document! This might have an impact.

Yeah ...
When I use the clone doc ... the way it's working really changed ... I can use ESC to stop rendering ...
But after stopping the render ... C4D also stop responding ... When the ESC is pressed ... I ended the thread ...
What more do I need to do?But I think I can move a new step ...
Thank you a lot ...
