Dear,
I am trying to write a program that can access to other computer in my LAN with a specified user name and password. Please show me how to do this. I am working with C API.
Thank you very much.

Sincerely

Hope what u need is to access the file system on the remote computer.
For this u have to impersonate the user context of ur application to a user who has acceess on the remote machine.

So by using the username and password u have, call LogonUser API.
Then call ImpersonateLoggedOnUser by passing the tocken u received as out from LogonUser.

Once impersonataed, eitehr u can use the unc path to access the remote file system, or if it not shared u can use the default NT share c$, d$ etc for each drive.

I am verry sorry. I try to create one program and it really worked at only my computer with current user. I could not connect to other computers, even my localhost with other accounts. LogonUser always returned FALSE. Please could you give me some code. Needn't API, non MFCs are OK.

void CMyList::FillList()
{

CData *pData = new CData();
pData->Open();

CString sNrInregistrare;

if (pData->GetRecordCount())
pData->MoveFirst();

while(!pData->IsEOF())

{

int nItem = m_list.GetItemCount();
sNrInregistrare.Format("%d",pData->m_name);
m_list.InsertItem(nItem,sNrInregistrare);

m_list.SetItemText(nItem,0,pData->m_name);
m_list.SetItemText(nItem,1,pData->m_city);

pData->MoveNext();

}
pData->Close();

}

One way is prasad_som answer one way is insert your code to a thread

One strategy would be like this..
dont fetch all the data at one time. You must know no of rows for that.
First insert empty rows,equal to number of records.
now bring data from database, that would be visible(say its will be 6-7 rows or more). Keep other rows empty.When you make other row visible by scrolling, bring data for those rows ,too.
This way you can avoid fetching bulk data from database at one go.

Hi, does anyone know a good article on how to use working threads in visual c++?

Thanks.. I was reading throught this article and i came upon a small problem. It's the part where it teaches you how to shut down the thread: http://www.codeproject.com/threads/usingworkerthreads.asp#Shutting%20down%20a%20thread%20from%20a%20view%20or%20main%20frame

The problem is this function: ' WaitForSingleObject(myWorkerThread->m_hThread, INFINITE); '

This function will wait for the thread to terminate before proceeding. However, it seems like my thread doens't ever terminates although in actual fact it does. Why is this so? Am I missing an output signal saying that my thread is done? BTW, i used a very simple 'for' loop in my thread, Just like in the example. It looks something like this:

m_progress.SetRange(0,100);<br />
	for(x = 0; running && x < m_num; x++)<br />
	{<br />
		count++;<br />
		counter = (float) count/m_num;<br />
		m_progress.SetPos((float)counter*100);<br />
		//testFunction1(count,count);<br />
	}<br />
	<br />
	m_progress.SetPos(0);<br />
    running = FALSE;

Thanks.. I managed to implement worker threads in my program but i noticed 1 problem. Whenever i call the UpdateData(FALSE) function in my thread, a 'Debug Assertion Failed!' error pops up. Is there a way to overcome this problem?

Hamid_RT15-Aug-06 2:56

15-Aug-06 2:56

Can you be more specific

Well, i was using UpdateData(FALSE) to change some CStatic text in my Dialog Box using the worker thread but it always gives me that error. There is no compilation error. Just that error when i run the thread.

I have another question, how do i start another funcion upon the completion of my thread? Is there a way i can 'signal' to my other function saying that the worker thread is done?

Hamid_RT15-Aug-06 7:57

15-Aug-06 7:57

(1)It seems that this problem isnt for thread do you have a specific code in your thread and
maybe this error is in declare thread (i know your code is ok this error is a runtime error)
----------------
(2)
Hope I understood your question
Do you need to GetExitCodeThread if its not you can check your thread when it created

WhiteSky

cv_k3n15-Aug-06 21:39

15-Aug-06 21:39

Sorry but i don't quite get your explanation for my second question. What i want to do is to call another function when my thread finishes whatever it was doing. Hope you can explain it to me again. Thanks.
