For the dialog to select the Path you could use SHBrowseForFolder  ,
or better look here at CP for a really useable replacement.
And what is wrong with ::CopyFile()/::CopyFileEx()?
|

|

Thanks for your quick reply.
I couldn't really find the information on CopyFile()/""CopyFileEx(). Also Could you please tell me what SHBrowseForFolder is? .. I tried to search for both of these things that you suggested in the MSN VStudio Help but did't find anything . 
Thanks !

use this:
::CopyFile(csOrigen,csDesti,TRUE)
where csOrigen is the source path (CString),
csDesti is the destination path (CString too),
and the last BOOL parameter is a flag that defines if you want the operation to fail if the file exists.
Take a look at the MSDN for further information...

Joan,
Thanks, your reply helps. Just one quick follow up question. What is the best way to get the Destination path from the user? .. Thanks!
Anjum.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BOOL CopyFile(
LPCTSTR lpExistingFileName,
// pointer to name of an existing file
LPCTSTR lpNewFileName, // pointer to filename to copy to
BOOL bFailIfExists // flag for operation if file exists
);
You will find more info on this in the MSDN Help File. Good luck.

Hello,
I need to prevent the user to hit "Ctrl+Alt+Del", I've been reading information on this on MSDN and I've find out that a Gina Dll is the right stuff.
The samples are not clear for me and are only a few...
Can I only handle that keystroke message in my gina dll? or I must handle the other kind of stuff since mygina.dll would substitute the msgina.dll?
I've readen that my OS could not start if I miss some things and I'm worried about that, I will use the "test" computer in my enterprise, but I would like to know more about all that facts...
Thank you in advance...

I'm sorry I can't help you with your problem 
But could you please tell me the URL to the MSDN article? I'd like to experiment with the msgina.dll, too.
regards

I can't remember the link, but I have the files, search "gina" in the msdn, if you can't find it send me an e-mail where I can send you the zipped files.

Strictly, the Secure Attention Sequence isn't handled by the GINA DLL, but it is called in response.
I think what you want to do is to create a shim or pass through GINA, that has a custom wlxLoggedOnSAS, which you then return WLX_SAS_ACTION_NONE from, rather than calling through to the standard GINA.
This would effectively disable Ctrl-Alt-Del, but on a system basis rather than an app basis.

OK then, are you telling me that I can make a DLL with a handler to the keystroke Ctrl+Alt+Del without handling anything else and that it should work?
I mean that if I handle the message WLX_SAS_TYPE_CTRL_ALT_DEL will do I need to handle too the other GINA operations? (see below)
-> From the msdn:
If you are writing a GINA to replace the Microsoft standard GINA (MSGINA), you may want to provide some or all of the MSGINA functionality. Following is a list of these features and a brief description of how they are controlled.
The mentioned list talks about handling the automatic logon and some other features related to registry entries, do I need to handle them in order to make them work or they will work automatically for me if I not handle them?
Thanks in advance.

Please could someone help me?
I have a SQL command which retrieves records no problem.
I can do wildcard searches with every field except my date field. What am I doing wrong?
Can someone give me some ideas or sample code.
Thankyou very much!

I have a project coming up that will require me to use sockets (or so I belive as I'll be needing to do some TCP/IP "stuff"). Anyhow, my question is can I use sockets to communicate with the serial port? I have yet another serial comm project to do before the socket one and thought maybe I'd get my feet wet with that. I've not had a chance to do any reading up on this subject yet and just would like to know if it can be done.

Who told you the serial port uses the TCP/IP protocol ? Bury him.

no no no.... I have another app to develop using the serial port and thought I could wet my feet with sockets writting it... just didn't know if sockets allow access to the serial port (still haven't read anything yet).

If I understand your question, you want to know if you can use sockets to communicate via the serial port. This depends on the serial connection.
Sockets let you communicate using TCP/IP. You can use TCP/IP over a serial connection (look up the SLIP and PPP protocols), but that requires that both ends of the connection use TCP/IP.
<assume_Windows_environment>
If you just need to send and receive arbitrary data via the serial port, then you have to use the builtin serial stuff: CreateFile() to open the port, ReadFile() and WriteFile() to read and write data, and so on.
</assume_Windows_environment>

okay... that was what I wanted to know. I still haven't read up on sockets yet but sounds like its going to handle the TCP/IP well since you've implied it to be the default. That is a seperate issue from you question though... thanks for the response
Peace

hello,
i need a tip.
can somebody please tell me how can i include multilanguage support in my VC++ project? I need some of Serbian/Slovenian/Croatian characters to be recognized in Edit and List boxes as in these languages.
|
|
|
|
|
A simple way to manage it is to create as many .rc resource files as there are cultures. For instance appresources_slovenian.rc, appresources_croatian.rc, appresources_serbian.rc.
Then create as many build configurations so you have (Debug Serbian, Debug Slovenian, Debug Croatian, Release Serbian, Release Slovenian, Release Croatian). Each configuration will reference the appropriate .rc file.

or, if you don't want to generate x number of applications, you can generate a DLL containing the resources and load it when the application starts.
You will then have another project only containing the different resources. I usually use one workspace containing all the projects files ( DSP ), one per language.
Max.

Thanks. Got that,but i am afraid that i was not very precise:my list and edit controls doesn't recognize local characters which are different from english:i can't for example to enter my real name in edit box 'cause it wont be recognized.It should be something like this:
Nikola Radovanović Mlađi
but it is not.Special letters are not recognized.
I think that i do not have appropriate dll file for serbian/slovenian/croatian language,and i dont know where to find it.maybe You know?
thanks.

- regarding the operating system, of course you must install the appropriate language. From what I know, both of the 3 languages you mention ar enot SBCS, but MBCS instead.
- if you are using the MFC dlls, be sure to use the appropriate mfcxxxloc.dll (where are the localized strings using by the MFC controls).
- and of course, you need to compile your code with the _MBCS switch (multi-byte).
