The system process will only run the command that you send it, and then terminate. There are alternative ways of doing this: see the exec commands at Process and Environment Control[^].

Sir, I referred here Execute a Program with C++[^]
and did this
ShellExecute(
NULL,
_T("open"),
_T("cmd.exe"),
_T("attrib"),
(show),
SW_SHOW);
it is showing the show (I mean the directory) like this K:\ but not ececuting the attrib.how could I solve this?
Thank you

If you are wanting to get the attributes of a file/folder, why do it the way we were doing it 30 years ago? See GetFileAttributes() instead.

Your parameters are not correct, and it will not work just by opening cmd.exe. You need to add the option to tell cmd to execute the sub-command in the parameter list automatically like:
PWSTR show = L"/k attrib D:\\";
ShellExecute(
NULL,
L"open",
L"cmd.exe",
show,
NULL,
SW_SHOW);
Of course, the attrib command will not operate on a drive letter, and as David mentions, there are better ways of getting this information.

Sir, my program will not do anything on its own.
I have a added GetLogicalDriveStrings in a combobox which will show the list of drive present in the PC. Then if the user wishes to add a directory by pressing a push button, then cmd function should execute and create a directory or hiding folders and so on on the drive specified.
I know it is much easier to do this manually but I am learning windows API so it will be helpful for my future use.
Thank you

Then start using it. Trying to do all of this via system() and ShellExecute() is all but completely wrong.

Thank you sir I made it for now using ShellExecute function but I will try to do with the function (GetAttributes) suggested by you
|
|
|
|

I showed you how to do it in my correction of your code.

Thank you sir for your kind help. I made it to work finally with the help of your code

Hi,
I hace a win32 dll and I want to add dependency as static for my dll because I have a problem to install it on machine which desn't contains MFC dlls
MFC100U.DLL
MSVCR100.DLL
Any help please.

In the project properties, go to the option called "Use of MFC library" and choose static library.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Is there a C / C++ / MFC question in here somewhere?

Can't assign an access key to a label ... because a label can't get focus.
|
|
|
|
|
It's a Windows Form (.NET) thing.
|
|
|
|
|
Fine ... It still looks like that's what he's trying to do.
Ampersand; underline; label; ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
He also used that reference (?)
|
|
|
|
|
That has nothing to do with C/C++. Please post in the correct forum and show the code that is not working.
