So have you already created the database using Access itself, or are you wanting to do that via code?

Hi,
How do you make assembly wrappers for a GNU compiler? I am confused as to how to make an assembly wrapper/macro. Upon my searches/readings, I think that there is no standard way to do it, and that it depends on your compiler/assembler.
My problem is that I have a few lines of assembly code that I keep using for several functions.. in C/C++, you would just make macros for those lines of code. How do you do that for assembly? Any pertinent feedback would be appreciated. Thanks, let me know.

Yes,we can use Macro in C/C++. It seems that you know ASM,if so,there is Macro syntax,too.
And if you have a few ASM lines would be used for several function,if in C/C++,I want to say,you can use Macro too,using it like this
#define ASM_MACRO __asm{ \ //for multiline Macro
... \ //there are some asm code lines
}
I wish it will help to you.
Regards.

I'm investigating garbage collection methodologies for C++.
I've been reading about smart pointers, and they seem to make sense, except for this one point that I cannot understand:
In the case of a container object, such as a hash table or even just an array of smart pointers, how do the pointers know that they are still "alive" once they are put into the container?
Thanks if someone can help me understand how that works.

The objects exist until they go out of scope, at which time their destructors are called.

That I understand, but, for instance, a member variable in a class instance doesn't really have a scope, does it?
It exists as long as the class instance exists, even though it's not actively being used in any expressions.

It is basically the Object lifetime not the scope, when the smart pointer get destroyed the objected it points to is also get destroyed. Scope can lead to end of object lifetime for example when a control leaves a block the local varable gets destroyed. smart pointer in a container class has lifetime as that of container class, it exists as long as class instance exists.

You have to be more specific on the type of smart pointer you are talking about. 'Smart pointer' is a generic label that is used to describe a number of techniques.
In the context of GC you are likely talking about reference counting.
In this case maintaining a smart pointer in the container ensures that the objects reference counts stays above 0.

Hi buddy!
How can I get an unique ID for each computer, so that it doesn't change after installing a new OS.
Thanks...

Microsoft has invested millions of dollars into developing such technology.
Their activation system takes a snapshot of all the hardware in the machine and produces a hash of many different parameters.
It isn't a simple answer.

Hello,
I am programming in MS VS c++.
In my application I want to get the information: Is my software is running "as administrator" or not.
On Windows Vista an administrator can be logged in, but it could be, that the application (my software) is not running "as administrator".
If the user starts a software "as administrator" so he has an other access to files, like ini- or txt-files.
Background of my question:
--------------------------
My software application is installed in the folder "c:\Program Files\myapplication\myApp.exe"
In this folder I store some configurations in the file "myconfig.ini".
If I want to change some entries in the ini-File (with myApp.exe), so under Windows Vista the changed file will be saved in the following folder:
C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\myapplication\myconfig.ini
But if the software "myApp.exe" is running "as administrator", so the changed ini-file will be stored in the original folder "c:\Program Files\myapplication\myconfig.ini".
So how I can to get the information (during run time): is myApp.exe is running as administartor or not? I need this information, because I want inform the user that the changed confiuration file will not be stored in the original installed folder, but in an another virtualstore-folder, if the software is not running as administartor.
Does somebody has a solution for this problem?

Thanks for your help.
I have insert "IsUserAdmin(void)", but I get the error: C2065: 'CheckTokenMembership' : undeclared identifier
I have found an other way to check the administrator status:
int IsAdminRunning(void)<br />
{<br />
bool IsMember = FALSE;<br />
ATL::CAccessToken ProcToken;<br />
ATL::CAccessToken ImpersonationToken;<br />
ATL::CSid UserSid(Sids::Admins());<br />
<br />
ProcToken.GetEffectiveToken(TOKEN_READ | TOKEN_DUPLICATE);<br />
ProcToken.CreateImpersonationToken(&ImpersonationToken);<br />
ImpersonationToken.CheckTokenMembership(UserSid, &IsMember);<br />
<br />
return IsMember;<br />
}<br />
But here I have the problem to use the ATL-Control.
If I insert a new ATL-Object in my project, so how I can use the CAccessToken and CSid?

The sample code Randor given is here,
CheckTokenMembership[^]
Have you included "windows.h"
IsUserAnAdmin()[^] API is available, the link as hint that this API might be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions of Microsoft Windows.

Look in the 'Remarks' section:
This function is a wrapper for CheckTokenMembership. It is recommended to call that function directly to determine Administrator group status rather than calling IsUserAnAdmin.

Interesting - they must have added that caveat when they updated the docs for Vista. I looked in my local MSDN page before posting and there is no remarks section. I got the URL but didn't read the online MSDN page when I posted.

See - How to tell if the current user is in administrators group programmatically
http://blogs.msdn.com/junfeng/archive/2007/01/26/how-to-tell-if-the-current-user-is-in-administrators-group-programmatically.aspx[^]
You can use CheckTokenMembership (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa376389.aspx) to check whether a user is in administrators group. There is an example in the MSDN document.
The example will not work in Windows Vista. In Windows Vista, even if the user is in administrators group, the OS will create a filtered user token when user log on. The SID of administrators group is not included in the filtered user token. The full token is linked to the filtered user token, and can be retrieved with API GetTokenInformation with the new TokenLinkedToken information type.
The following is the sample code. You need to download Vista SDK to compile it. Please make sure you read the article in the reference section.
HRESULT IsUserAdmin(BOOL *pIsAdmin)
{
int b;
HANDLE hProcess = NULL;
HANDLE hProcessToken = NULL;
HANDLE hLinkedToken = NULL;
BOOL fIsAdmin = FALSE;
DWORD dwLength = 0;
OSVERSIONINFO osver = {sizeof(OSVERSIONINFO)};
HRESULT hr = S_OK;
*pIsAdmin = FALSE;
// get handle to our process token
hProcess = GetCurrentProcess();
if (!OpenProcessToken(hProcess, TOKEN_QUERY, &hProcessToken))
{
hr = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(GetLastError());
goto Exit;
}
// get admin SID
char AdminSID[SECURITY_MAX_SID_SIZE];
dwLength = sizeof(AdminSID);
if(!CreateWellKnownSid(WinBuiltinAdministratorsSid, NULL, &AdminSID, &dwLength))
{
hr = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(GetLastError());
goto Exit;
}
// check to see if the current token contains admin SID
if (!CheckTokenMembership( NULL, &AdminSID, &fIsAdmin))
{
hr = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(GetLastError());
goto Exit;
}
if (fIsAdmin)
{
// printf("The user is in admin group, and the process is elevated.\n");
*pIsAdmin = TRUE;
goto Exit;
}
// if the current token does not contain admin SID, it does not mean
// that the current user is not admin. In Vista by default the token of
// users in administrator group has the the admin SID filtered. We nee
// to use the unfiltered token to do the check.
if (!GetVersionEx(&osver))
{
hr = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(GetLastError());
goto Exit;
}
// XP and below, we are done.
if (osver.dwMajorVersion < 6)
{
// printf("The user is not in admin group.\n");
goto Exit;
}
// get handle to linked token (will have one if we are lua)
if (!GetTokenInformation( hProcessToken,
TokenLinkedToken,
(VOID*) &hLinkedToken,
sizeof(HANDLE),
&dwLength) )
{
b = GetLastError();
if ( b == ERROR_NO_SUCH_LOGON_SESSION
|| b == ERROR_PRIVILEGE_NOT_HELD)
{
// printf("The user is not in admin group.\n");
goto Exit;
}
hr = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(b); // a real error
goto Exit;
}
if (!CheckTokenMembership( hLinkedToken, &AdminSID, &fIsAdmin))
{
hr = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(GetLastError());
goto Exit;
}
if (fIsAdmin)
{
// printf("The user is in admin group, and the process is not elevated.\n");
*pIsAdmin = TRUE;
}
else
{
// printf("The user is not in admin group.\n");
}
Exit:
if (hProcess)
{
CloseHandle(hProcess);
}
if (hProcessToken)
{
CloseHandle(hProcessToken);
}
if (hLinkedToken)
{
CloseHandle(hLinkedToken);
}
return hr;
}

Hello everyone,
Two basic questions about function invocation from STA to MTA.
1.
In my understaning, the owning thread of STA should not touch MTA component, and also in MTA there is no message queue for MTA owning thread to pumping messages.
My question is, if the owning thread of STA calls MTA component (by interface pointer), which thead is responsible for executing in MTA? From my above analysis, seems both STA owner thread (can not touch MTA component) and MTA owner thread (can not receive calls from STA through message queue, snice no message queue in MTA.)
2.
Before function call returns from MTA, will STA thread waiting or it could execute in asynchronous way?
thanks in advance,
George

I need to get the color from a specific pixel on the screen.
this pixel is not a part of my console application.
my basic method is:
keybd_event(VK_SNAPSHOT,0x9e, 0, 0);
keybd_event(VK_SNAPSHOT,0x9e, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
if(OpenClipboard(NULL))
{
HBITMAP hClipboardBmp = (HBITMAP) GetClipboardData(CF_BITMAP);
}
but i wonder if theres a way to get that pixel(s) directly from the screen.
thank you very much for your time and effort
