Do you know the file's name?

Yes I do know the file's name.

So then can't you call ReadFile()?

I have a file context.cfg which needs to be read form the flash drive. How do I specify in the ReadFile() parameters that I need to read this particular file. From what I know, I can pass the handle I obtain while opening the usb flash drive from CreateFile() to this function. How do I get hold of the file inside the flash drive

What does your call to CreateFile() look like?

I enumarate the USB device first and get the interface using SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetail(). The name is stored in a vector Devices. Then I use the following call:
HANDLE hUsbDevice = CreateFile(Devices[0].c_str(), GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL);
|
|
|
|
|
So what happens if you use:
string str = Devices[0] + "\\context.cfg";
HANDLE hUsbDevice = CreateFile(str.c_str(), GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL);

Havent tried that. Will check it out

I tried the method you suggested. I did not work. The code snippet is
std::string path = Devices[0] + "\\context.cfg";
HANDLE hUsbDevice = CreateFile(Devices[0].c_str(), GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, 0, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL);
if (hUsbDevice == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
return 1;
char data[MAX_PATH];
DWORD nNumberOfBytesToRead = MAX_PATH;
DWORD lpNumberOfBytesRead = 0;
if(!ReadFile(hUsbDevice,(void*)data, nNumberOfBytesToRead, &lpNumberOfBytesRead,NULL))
{
int err = GetLastError();
return 0;
}
GetLastError() returns ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER

But the code snippet you posted does not reflect such. You are not using path.
I like Judy's suggestion better.

I used the path but made a mistake while copying the code here. Ok so maybe I will try using WMI.
Do you have any tutorial which explains how to use Windows API in such situatuons?

The problem is that this handle is a handle to the physical drive. You can't use that to easily find a file on the drive.
Your basic problem is how to convert from a USB identifier to the logical hard drive letter. Using WMI you can go from something like USBSTOR\\DISK&VEN_SANDISK&PROD_CRUZER_MINI&REV_0.1\\20041100801E102869&0 (to take an example not at random) to G:. Stick the USB flash in your system, fire up the WMI object browser and you can see the queries you need to make to WMI to go from the former to the latter.

Interesting tool. I inserted a PNY Attache drive and tried it.
I found "E:" under the Win32_LogicalDisk node, and "USB\VID_154B&PID_0005\6E68190046F6" under the Win32_USBHub node. I then found "USBSTOR\DISK&VEN_PNY&PROD_USB_2.0_FD&REV_PMAP\6E68190046F6&0" under the Win32_DiskDrive node.
Where are these queries to which you refer?

If you follow Win32_SystemDevices to Win32_PnPEntity, you should find a leaf with a device id something like USBSTOR.....
From there, you can get (look under Win32_PnPDevice) the correct DeviceId to use for Win32_DiskDrive.
From there, you can get (look under Win32_DiskDriveToDiskPartition) the correct DeviceId to use for Win32_DiskPartition.
From there, you can get (look under Win32_LogicalDiskToPartition) the correct DeviceId to use for Win32_LogicalDisk.
That final device id is the logical drive number.
(Whew!! <wiping brow="">)
Getting that first USBSTOR... monster string is what's usually the hardest part of this sort of thing since you have to use the SetupDi API. That is truly nasty!!

Wow! I need an elevator to come back to the surface from drilling down that deep. It works, though.

I'm looking for a way of identifying the data members of a number of classes that need to be serialized
Boost serialization would be used - but what I'm looking for is a way to automatically generate the serialization helpers.
The idea would be to:
1) Run an utility (parser) that scans the C++ code and identifies the data members
2) From the data members generate .inl files (one for each class) that would contain the boost::serialize() method
3) Have the .inl files included in the corresponding cpps
4) Compile and link...
These are classes that are modified on a daily basis by other people. Maintaining the serialization code manually would not be an option - looking for an automated way.
Definitely someone else had solved this problem (with this approach or a different one). Let me know if you know anything about that.
Thanks,
Adrian

I'm using a Gdiplus::Bitmap object as a buffer bitmap.
When do some, I can't open the file used by the bitmap in CFile::modeRead mode.
Is there any mehod to make it read-share?

i want to hook the windows API such as messagebox, i find the code in the net, but it dosn't work, why? the code as follows:

OK - you are not getting any replies because of the following issues, which I suggest you correct ASAP:
1: You code snippet neets to be inbetween <PRE> tags
2: In order to ask why something does not work, you have to specify what exactly is not working (error codes, crashes, etc.)
I have successfully used a CBT hook to capture, log the contents of, and pop MessageBox(...)-based dialogs successfully in the past, so I know this is not too hard.
Peace!

1. Format your code so it's readable. I know it's a pain, but it's also a pain from this end: I don't even bother to look at such messes.
2. What's going wrong?

yes, it was my fault to post such long and boring code!
but ,frankly to say, i got the code from the website, i didn't understand it with my little HOOK and DLL knoledge. i debuged the code , and found that it cound not get the User32.dll IAT location, i didn't know the matter.
my aim is to hook the window API , such as messagebox or winsocket, would you please give me some help? refering materials or codes?
thanks!
