Is there any way to use SHGetFolderPath() to get the path to the C:\Documents and Settings folder? With Vista and newer, I can use SHGetKnownFolderPath(FOLDERID_UserProfiles, ...) to get the path to the C:\Users folder, but I need an XP solution.
Thanks.

I can think of a way to achieve it using SHGetFolderPath(). If I pass the corresponding value of CSIDL[^] to get the public desktop, the API should return something like C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop, which I can strip down to C:\Documents and Settings.

I thought of that, but was not sure that "All Users\Desktop" would always exist (e.g., spelling, locale). Maybe I can key off of the backslash instead.

You could also use SHGetSpecialFolderPath() and pass CSIDL_APPDATA to it. This would give you something like "D:\Documents And Settings\Administrator\Application Data". The AppData folder always exists as far as I know.

Even if it were to be the desktop folder, like David said, we could simply count the backslashes in the string and have it 'trimmed' if required.
How's life otherwise?

I just suggested "AppData" because of David's concern whether "All Users\Desktop" always exists. Ans yes, from there it's quite simple to parse the string and extract what he needs.

Hi All,
I am having a FormView and i have shown the form View in Menu Click Event. Previously there was a Model Dialog for that Event. The same event is modified to CFormView.
My Doubt is.
Code
----
CMyDialog dlg;
if( dlg.DoModel()== IDOK)
{
//Some Conditions ......
}
The Code will wait untill the CDialog Box is been Closed.
The Same behaviour must be applied to CFormView.
What is the Process to do.
Regards,
Uday.

If you want it to be modal why not simply disable other windows and run a message pump?

Hi,
I have a question in windows base development,
I am using VS C++ is it possible to create a packet cannon that use multiple proxy servers to send the packet.
In multi i mean that the packet go from one proxy to another one and so on till the target location.
I can use one proxy server for each package that i send, but is it possible to use more then one for the same package?
Example scenario:
command:
packet_canon.exe -p plist.txt -h 3 -t [site name]/example_script.php
sending package to '[site name]/example_script.php'...
packet go into proxy server USA...
From there to Proxy server in UK...
From there to Proxy server in Japan...
From there to the target site...
the -p - is for a proxy list file
the -h - is for how many proxy to pass
the -t - is the target location (php script).
Thanks a lot for any help and your time,
Ram.

It might depend on the type of proxy used.
I suspect it's possible using SOCKS, but I don't quite see a way to do this via HTTP

hi evry body
im want a program in subject:
source code car firetruck in c
please help me
thank you

What ?
What the hell are you talking about ?
Furthermore, nobody is going to do the work for you and provide the full source code. You have to do the work on your own and ask specific questions when you are stuck.

You seem to be confused, firetrucks don't have a source code but a chassis.

Unless your firetruck hits a firewall, there will be no source code involved.

You can always read data in chunks. Do you mean how to load the entire 4GB into RAM?
|
|
|
|

Not exactly, i want to find some data in that file.
So need to until that point is enough, but that search may be on last part.
So i need a mechanism to do so.
I believe CreateFileMapping can be used, do u think, its a good solution?

So you indeed need to read data in chunks as I said. Load a chunk and perform the search. Keep loading the next part of the file into the chunk until you get the data.
To do this, you may use memory mapped file or one of the various read(...) functions (Win32 API, CRT etc). Either way, you would still have to read the file in chunks.
