Introduction
I developed this project as a learning experience after seeing such a GUI on
some FTP Shareware Programs; the Icons and File Types unfortunately have been hardcoded in the project, unlike the ones available on Windows Explorer. The
Icons are a part of the project and not picked up from the Windows Operating
System. This project uses a ListView to display all the drives (including CD Drive) on
the Computer System

There is a bug when trying to go one step back to the previous folder. If you started at the top level (cd-rom, removables, floppy..) when browsing the content of one disk, and then jumping back to what was supposed to be the previous folder, you end up on c:\.
In "OnDblclk" something like this would fix the problem:
if (m_cPath.Left(m_cPath.ReverseFind('\\')+1) != m_cPath)
m_cPreviousPath = m_cPath.Left(m_cPath.ReverseFind('\\')+1);
else
m_cPreviousPath = "";
Also: E.g. USB memory sticks shows up as floppy drive......
Fix:
In "AddDrives":
Update "case DRIVE_REMOVABLE...." to the following:
case DRIVE_REMOVABLE:
nItem = GetListCtrl().InsertItem(0, strDrive,ICI_FLOPPYDRV);
if (nDrive == 0 || nDrive == 1)
GetListCtrl().SetItemText(0, 1 , "Floppy Drive");
else
GetListCtrl().SetItemText(0, 1 , "Removable Drive");
break;
And thanks for the sample code!

1. A lot of hard-coded constants.
2. Source code package should not include intermediate files that can be built from sources: .APS, .CLW, .PLG. DriveBrowser.aps alone occupies more than the rest of the code!
3. This is an extract from the function GetFileType.
CString CBrowsingListView::GetFileType(CString s)
{
if(ext == ".PDF") return "PDF File";
if(ext == ".CPP") return "VC Source";
if(ext == ".H") return "Header File";
if(ext == ".C") return "C Source";
else if(s == "SETUP.EXE") return "SETUP File";
else if(s == "ISUNINST.EXE") return "UNINSTALL File";
else if(ext == ".TXT" || ext == ".LOG") return "TEXT File";
else if(ext == ".ZIP" || ext == ".ARJ" || ext == ".TGZ" ||
...
}
What if my CPP files are handled by Borland C, not VC, what will you do then? Have you ever heard about registry?

If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw one of those small pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone think how stupid war is, and while they are thinking, you can throw a real grenade at them.

Anyone know how to rename registry key programmatically? I cann't find a function call to rename registry key, but registry editor allows users to do so.
Thanks.

Hi, try asking in the VC++ forum.

You are the intrepid one, always willing to leap into the fray! A serious character flaw, I might add, but entertaining.
