Per your subject, you need to read up on Access Control List (ACL). There's a whole API for it.

One way, if youv'e got absolute paths, just compare them as strings/char arrays.
You can get absolute paths by using _fullpath() or _wfullpath.
Then you can do the compare, something like this (beware! Old C syntax here):
NOTE! I didn't find the time to set current directory to c:\server before testing the code, so I made a full path name for goodRelPath. Else, I could have used a relative path for goodRelPath.
char * projectDir = "c:\\server\\";
char * goodRelPath = "c:\\server\\new folder\\test.dat";
char * badRelPath = "c:\\test.dat";
char tempFullPath[MAX_PATH];
_fullpath(tempFullPath, badRelPath, MAX_PATH );
if(strstr(tempFullPath, projectDir) == projectDir)
{
}
else {
}
_fullpath(tempFullPath, goodRelPath, MAX_PATH );
if(strstr(tempFullPath, projectDir) == projectDir)
{
}
else {
}

Thank you for your help and the example. Great

I'm glad to be able to help you.
I have a faint memory of using this technique in a program system in the past (15 years ago, or even longer). It was in the DOS days, and there was a DOS call to convert a relative path to a canonical path name.
Well, the principle worked then, and should do so today.
Good luck.

Hi,
How many threads are there in a simple MFC dialog based Application.
Thanks in advance.

Can you spend a little more time thinking about what you need to ask?

I could but I doubt you'd be able to hear me!
There is at least one thread for any application, MFC or otherwise.

Hello folks,
I want to search all of files under some directory. For example, dir\file1.txt,
dir\file2.txt,
dir\file3.txt,
...
When using ::FindFirstFile and FindNextFile, I can get all files, and then I can process them. But because the processing may last long, I want to use multithread, but There are strage errors. Can ::FindFirstFile/FindNextFile be multithread? or Are they thread safe?
Thanks in advance.

Yes they can, but don't make changes to the directory structure because they may fail. In your case I would use a thread to get the subdirectories only, then launch another thread to process the files in the directory ( you may want to take a look at thread pooling to do this ). Be very careful about where you are writing your results. Your problem sounds to me like two threads trying to write to the same location.

Each time when the program find a file, it send it to the file_handler() to process. The file_handler() is a function in where I create another thread to process the file. It is like this:
void CMyDoc1::file_handler(LPCTSRT pFileName)<br />
{<br />
m_fileName = pFileName;<br />
AfxBeginThread(ThreadProc, this);<br />
}<br />
UINT ThreadProc(PVOID pParam)<br />
{<br />
CMyDoc1* pDoc = pParam;<br />
pDoc ->FileProcessor();<br />
return 0;<br />
}
The error occurs in FileProcessor(), when free the memory.

In FielProcessor()
{
new pFile = File();
delete pFile; // Error when there are nearly 25 threads. The first serval threads are OK.
}

Multithreading can easily be a problem. It requires a lot of thought. It is highly likely that the problem has nothing to do with FindFirstFile/FindNextFile and therefore it is unlikely you have provided enough information to allow anyone to help.

It is not safe to have mutiple threads messing with the same find handle as the same time. It should be safe to first construct the full path to the file and pass it to a thread like you later examples demonstrates, but you have to make sure that the memory pointed to by the filename parameter is valid for as long as the thread needs it. This is the kind of situation where "hand-off" memory can be used, either by allocating a TCHAR buffer via new[] and passing it to the thread which will later call delete[] on it, or passing a string object.
For these kinds of situations, you may want to use a pool of threads with something like an I/O Completion Port and throw processing requests at it. That way, you do not create too many threads bogging the system down (you do not want to create 1500 threads if 1500 files need to be processed), and you can adjust the number of threads in the pool depending on the resources available on the target system and/or the performance needs of the application.
You can also look into seeing if the QueueUserWorkItem(...) function is available on the target system and use it to manage the thread pool and the work to be done.
Peace!

Please help,
How can I fix this error:
Error 1 fatal error C1189: #error : Please use the /MD switch for _AFXDLL builds C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\atlmfc\include\afxver_.h 77
Many Thanx

take project->Settings
In the cpp tab, select "Code generation" in the category tab.
Now in the "Use runtime library" combo, select "Multithreaded Dll"
save and rebuild the project.

Thank you nave for the quick response,
My current setting for that setting is:
Multi-threaded (/MT)
And I'm using VS 2K5
But the problem still continues....

did u try changing Multi-threaded (/MT) to Multithreaded-dll (/MD)

My bad .... setting was: Multi-threaded (/MT)
but changed it to: Multi-threaded DLL (/MD)
and it works .... many many thanx

Just a guess - use the /MD switch?

Anyone has seen the start menu, there's a cool thing about it.
You can edit each menuitem position by dragging items, you can even create application links by dragging things in it, its a really cool feature.
You can edit your menu on the fly !
I've searching in the net for something like this but nothing came up, i think this would requiere a lot of codding correct me if im wrong.
Maybe on of you guys know the anwser for this little but awezome hidden abillity of the menus.
