OK so here's my current situation.
I have a program that I put in the shared network drive. People are using this program a lot, so upgrading is a bit pain in the neck. First I have to rename the exe, copy the new exe, then find all the active instances of the program and close them, then delete it. Works great until couple weeks ago where I thought I close every active instance and I still couldn't delete it. Had to ask admin guy to delete it.
So I decide to go with slightly more clever way: get a timer to periodically check the exe version.
Suppose I have a.exe, and I rename a.exe to a.exe.bak and put a.exe with newer version in. If somebody still have the instance of a.exe.bak running, it will check a.exe for newer version, and will close that instance.
Great in theory, but it doesnt happen! For some reason the code to check the version using GetVersionInfo("a.exe"...) always return the old version even if the old a.exe has been renamed to a.exe.bak and a.exe that has higher version is put in the same directory. I suspect this is because the code still thinks the handle to open the old a.exe is still open or something. Any help?
Thanks a bunch!

So is your question about GetVersionInfo() returning the correct value, or how to copy over a potentially in-use file?

My question is how to use GetVersionInfo() to return the correct value.
Thanks

I use the following in a application.. It seems to work fine for pulling the version info..
CString CMainFrame::GetVerInfo(CString strFile)
{
DWORD size = GetFileVersionInfoSize(strFile.LockBuffer(),0);
strFile.UnlockBuffer();
if(size > 0)
{
CString results;
char *pData = new char[size];
if(GetFileVersionInfo(strFile.LockBuffer(), 0, size, pData))
{
strFile.UnlockBuffer();
VS_FIXEDFILEINFO* lpvi;
UINT iLen;
if(VerQueryValue(pData,"\\", (void **)&lpvi, &iLen))
{
results.Format("%u.%u.%u.%u",HIWORD(lpvi->dwFileVersionMS),
LOWORD(lpvi->dwFileVersionMS),
HIWORD(lpvi->dwFileVersionLS),
LOWORD(lpvi->dwFileVersionLS));
}
}
delete[] pData;
return results;
}
else
return "Unknown";
}

Make 2 version.exe, put one with version 1.0.0.1 (version1.exe) and the other one 1.0.0.5 (version5.exe).
Copy version1.exe to version.exe.
Run version.exe. A dialog should pop up 1.0.0.1 every 5 seconds.
Rename version.exe to version.bak. The dialog should cease popping up.
Copy version5.exe to version.exe. The dialog will pop up again still with 10.0.0.1 (while it should be 10.0.0.5).
So still no solution

I'm assuming that version.exe is not the name of the program that this code is in right?
If it is, I didn't think you could rename the exe while it was running..
If not, not sure why it's not working, strange.. Is your file name/path defined in the timer like the code above or are you actually putting the file name/path in a member variable?

It is. Yes you can rename it. It seems like Windows OS doesnt care much about filename as long as it already acquired the handle for exe. Done this a few times.
And you are right if it is not the file that is running, it works fine. I just hard code the exe filename because my project is called version.dsp. Just for a test program.
I guess this rename - copy - check version idea doesnt work. 
Thanks!

I would like to disconnect the already existing dialup connection from my program. But the dialup connection was not made from my program. Can anyone tell me how this can be possible? InternetHangup() can only be used with the handle returned from InternetDial() function. But because the dialup connection is already existing, can I still call InternetDial() to get the handle and then use it with InternetHangup()? It doesn't seem to work this way. Is there any other way to do this. Please let me know if you know.
Thanks

Use RasEnumConnections() and RasGetConnectStatus() to find all active connections and then call RasHangUp().
|
|
|
|
|
#include <ras.h>
#define MAX_CONNECTIONS 128
void HangUpConnections()
{
RASCONN rcConnection[ MAX_CONNECTIONS ];
DWORD dwBufferSize;
DWORD dwTotalConnections;
int nLoop;
rcConnection[0].dwSize = sizeof( RASCONN );
dwBufferSize = MAX_CONNECTIONS * sizeof( RASCONN );
if( RasEnumConnections( rcConnection, &swBufferSize, &dwTotalConnections ) )
return;
if( dwTotalConnections )
{
for( nLoop = 0; nLoop < (int) dwTotalConnections; nLoop ++)
{
RASCONNSTATUS rcsStatus;
rcsStatus.dwSize = sizeof( RASCONNSTATUS );
if( RasGetConnectStatus( rcConnection[ nLoop ].hrasconn, &rcsStatus ) )
break;
if( rcsStatus.rasconnstate == RASCS_Connected )
{
if( RasHangUp( rcConnection[ nLoop ].hrasconn ) )
break;
}
}
}
}

How to nuke left and right "Windows" key in my MFC/DirectX fullscreen application? VK_APPS seems to be filtered by CMyWnd::PreTranslateMessage, VK_?WIN do not.

I Load and draw Picture
in OnEraseBkgnd(CDC* pDC),
I than need label to not overdraw background,
and do
<br />
<br />
<br />
HBRUSH cWaitDlg::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)<br />
{<br />
HBRUSH hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);<br />
<br />
<br />
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);<br />
<br />
<br />
return hbr;<br />
}<br />
Why backgound is overdrawn?
thanks you.

Try
return (HBRUSH)GetStockObject(NULL_BRUSH);
instead of
return hbr;

if you donot like 'stock object' try this  . It should work.
LOGBRUSH lb;
lb.lbStyle = BS_HOLLOW;
return CreateBrushIndirect(&lb);
|
|
|
|
|
if you dont like using 'stock objects', try using this 
It should work
LOGBRUSH lb;
lb.lbStyle = BS_HOLLOW;
CreateBrushIndirect(&lb);
|
|
|
|
|
Problem with non-stock object approach is that you may inadvertently leak GDI objects, unless you track them in the parent CDialog.
Another approach would be to derive from CStatic, use message reflection so that the object handles it's own WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC, and returns a singleton hollow brush.
The stock object null/hollow brush could be used there too, and you'd use control variables to associated dialog members to the appropriate control(s).

Beter if you explain ...
Code that work:
hbr = NULL;
{
if( CTLCOLOR_STATIC == nCtlColor )
{
hbr = (HBRUSH)GetStockObject( HOLLOW_BRUSH );
pDC->SetBkMode( TRANSPARENT );
}
else
{
hbr = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);
}
return hbr;
}
thanks you for response.

Hi All,
I would like to know whether there is any API provided by the
Windows OS for packet filtering dynamically. Usually we can configure this
from the Control Panel Settings, but it needs restart. Is there any method
to do it without any restart needed.
Thanks.
