1) Call GetCommState( handle, &dcb ); to get the existing port settings into DCB.
2) Modify the DCb structure accordingly to set new values.
3) Call SetCommState to set the new values back to port.

Re: Setting modem properties

What I need is to set the modem properties for the dial-up connection I create programmatically. The GetCommState fn works if I have handle to the serial port. I just need to set-up the connection so that whenever the user dials the connection, the correct settings are used to connect with the modem.

Are there registry available to any user?

I mean that, if on a station are several users with different rights(admins, users, etc.) is any registry key that anyone can change, without giving specific rights to it?

No, there is no key that all users can see and have write access to. HKLM is writable only by power users and admins. You'll need to use the All users\Application data directory to share data this way.

Deriving from CObject and using = operator

Dr-Kuulun31-Mar-06 23:23

31-Mar-06 23:23

Hello,

how is the = operator to be implemented in a class derived from CObject?

I derived two classes with one element inside:

<br />
class CA : CObject<br />
{<br />
   int a;<br />
<br />
   void operator = (const CA& src) {};<br />
}<br />
<br />
class CB : CA<br />
{<br />
   int b;<br />
}<br />

The first class overwrites the = operator with an empty function.

The following code has a mystic result:

<br />
   CA obA;<br />
   CB obB;<br />
<br />
   obA.a=1;<br />
   obA.b=2;<br />
<br />
   obB=obA;<br />

The element b is copied, a not. Why? And what do the = operator in CObject? Why is b copied? Do I have to implement the operator in Class CB too?
Many questions no answer!

Thanx
Markus

class CA : CObject

CA & operator = (const CA &);
}

good luck

How does that even compile? obA.b doesn't make sense.

Yes it is wrong. Both objects should be instances from the last derrived class type CB.

Save into a UTF-8 file?

I'm currently working on a project which needs to read contents from an ANSI text file and save into another text file in UTF-8 format, in fact it needs to convert about a thousand files from ANSI to UTF-8 and those old ANSI files must remain unmodified. Any suggestions? I'm not familiar with text encoding stuff...
