i simply checked IPropertyNotifySink - the function received notifications of changes (or monitor changes from my app's view), it is not my need.

If you want to query Windows Explorer yourself rather than have it notify you, you could use something like:
HWND hWnd = FindWindow("ExploreWClass", NULL);
if (NULL != hWnd)
hWnd = FindWindowEx(hWnd, NULL, "SHELLDLL_DefView", NULL);
if (NULL != hWnd)
hWnd = FindWindowEx(hWnd, NULL, "SysListView32", NULL);
if (NULL != hWnd)
{
CListView *p = (CListView *) CListView::FromHandle(hWnd);
if (NULL != p)
{
CListCtrl &c = p->GetListCtrl();
if ((GetWindowLong(c.GetSafeHwnd(), GWL_STYLE) & LVS_REPORT) == LVS_REPORT)
{
for (int x = 0, nItem = -1; x < c.GetSelectedCount(); x++)
{
nItem = c.GetNextItem(nItem, LVNI_SELECTED);
if (-1 != nItem)
TRACE("Item = %d\n", nItem);
}
}
}
}

I believe includeh10 was interested in Windows Explorer, not Internet Explorer.

Only Windows explorer in the moment.
I will test your code, thanks.

HWND hWnd=::FindWindow("ExploreWClass",0); is not working.
it may work on win95 only according to MSDN.
any more comments?

Which means nothing unless you explain what "not working" means. Do you get a compiler/linker error? Does it fail to find a window with the indicated class name?

You need to re-read it again. The FindWindow() function is supported on Windows NT 3.1 and later, and Windows 95 and later.

when we type a command on DOS window to execute a exe file, i.e.
regedit.exe
OS actually searches from a set of directories, if the file is not found, it shows error.
Do you know full list and searchong order of these directories?
thanks

Per MSDN:
If the file name does not contain a directory path, the system searches for the executable file in the following sequence:
1) The directory from which the application loaded.
2) The current directory for the parent process.
3) Windows 95/98/Me: The Windows system directory. Use the GetSystemDirectory function to get the path of this directory.
Windows NT/2000/XP: The 32-bit Windows system directory. Use the GetSystemDirectory function to get the path of this directory. The name of this directory is System32.
4) Windows NT/2000/XP: The 16-bit Windows system directory. There is no function that obtains the path of this directory, but it is searched. The name of this directory is System.
5) The Windows directory. Use the GetWindowsDirectory function to get the path of this directory.
6) The directories that are listed in the PATH environment variable.

Hi DavidCrow,
thanks for extra info.
did you copy the info from MSDN?
two things need to know:
1. how to get "The directories that are listed in the PATH environment variable"?
2. "The current directory for the parent process" - what does it mean?

Yes, see this function, about 1/3 of the way down.

To get the contents of any environment variable, use GetEnvironmentVariable().

Exactly what it says.

if for CreateProcess() ...
lets say:
c:\dir0\parent.exe and child.exe
CreateProcess(NULL,"child.exe",...) is called by parent.exe
1)The directory from which the application loaded.
2)The current directory for the parent process.
the 1) is c:\dir0 definitely.
the 2) should be c:\dir0 also, right?
my understanding is that 1) and 2) are the same.

You know how you make an installer by packing a file under a
file then a footer under that.
When you use the file it uses the top file, so you make the top file read the footer to get the file sizes, read them into a buffer and write them out...
Well i was planing on using that same method to pack things like programs that are just dialogs under it, and have my program, (rather than write it to a file, and erase it afterwords, just execute it out of memory)... I could just make child windows, but this seems easyer to me, and i'm also mainly curious if it is really possile to do this...

This question has been asked several times in the past. Search CP for "PE file format."

You cannot run a file "from memory" because processes have separate address spaces. How would the new process read its code from yours?
Also, the OS uses memory-mapped files to load a binary into memory, which requires that the binary be a disk file.

Can't you use malloc and get a chunk of memory big enough to hold the binary program, then manually load it from disk to memory? Next, use _beginthread/_beginthreadex and point it to the start of the memory you allocated? I know this probably isn't all you need to do, but that's what I'm thinking in a broadstroke. This wouldn't be it's own process either, it'll be a thread running under the guys process too.

Thank (all of you)... Just got back on so sorry i diddn't thank all of you earler.
Just wondering about the "PE file format" is it that PE projector thing?
also do I have to use any special way of reading the file to a buffer, or can I do it the way I always do:
<br />
FILE *in;<br />
<br />
long size;<br />
char *Buffer;<br />
<br />
if(in = fopen("[blah]", "rb"))<br />
{<br />
fseek(in, 0, SEEK_END);<br />
size = ftell(in);<br />
Buffer = (char *) malloc(size);<br />
fseek(in, 0, SEEK_SET);<br />
<br />
fread(Buffer, 1, size, in);<br />
<br />
fclose(in);<br />
}<br />
----------
and then do the PE thing, or do i need to use ReadFile() or something...
If possible a specific code example would be appreicated, (haven't tried anything like this before) just a little confused.
PS:
wasn't planning on using this idea for a child window type deal... I was thinking more on the line of something like:
a patcher like there is before you log on to a game, after the patcher got it's files it could unpack and execute parts of the game, or the game could just unpack the patcher... that kind of thing. I don't actually NEED this, am just curious about it. Thanks again =8^)... please don't steal face...

The example that I have seen, and may still have on my disk at work, requires knowledge of the Portable Executable file format.

Hi everybody, i am using a simple thread in my program,
when i launch the thread it works , but slows my machine,
in the task manager the CPU usage is 100% until the thread is ended. I am using simple AfxBEginThread(..) function ,is there any other way to make thread work , without slowing down my PC???
With Best Regards

The mere existence of a secondary thread will not cause the CPU usage to jump to 100%. You are doing something in this thread to cause that. Without seeing your code, it's impossible to say.

Well... The AfxBeginThread function will simple create a thread to do work on the controller function you specify. So the CPU usage is down to what's in the function you write. If you write a function which crunches numbers in a loop or whatver, then your CPU usage will go to 100% while the function keeps crunching. However, if you only need to run a calculation intermittently try using Sleep(100), or CEvents to put the thread into suspended animation giving the rest of the threads time to do their jobs.
What are you trying to do with your worker thread?

"What are you trying to do with your worker thread?"
Pretty Lot, i am testing huge numbers(100 or more digits )
on primality.
Actually i am doing lots of operations there,probably this makes my cpu go 100% , anyway thanks for attention to all

Change your priority to THREAD_PRIORITY_IDLE instead of the default which is normal. That'll lower the thread priority so it won't take your system with it. The command would be:
CWinThread * threadptr = AfxBeginThread(
pfnThreadProc,
pParam,
THREAD_PRIORITY_IDLE,
0,
0,
NULL
);

I have written an xll with basic arithmetical calculations. I want to use the debugger to step through those functions to confirm they are working properly. I have tried to do this by setting Excel as the Command application and a spreadsheet that loads the xll as the Command argument. I then place breakpoints throughout the functions. Unfortunately, the VC++.Net debugger never recognises the breakpoints (the warning glyph ? breakpoint appears). The two error messages are firstly:
"Excel.exe does not contain debugging information. (No symbols loaded.) Click OK to debug anyway"
Secondly:
"The following breakpoint cannot be set: When 'double' changes
Data breakpoints are not supported in the Common Language Runtime"
Is the only way to debug an xll/dll to create a separate basic application to call the xll function? Ideally I would want to be able to call from Excel so that I know exactly what Excel is feeding to the xll function parameters. Any thoughts you may have would be appreciated.
Regards
Jeremy
