I think You can't change the length of the memory mapped file, after it's mapped, but You can specify the new (bigger) length while creating the file mapping object using CreateFileMapping in dwMaximumSizeHigh and dwMaximumSizeLow parameters. You need to know the needed size in advance because the file will be truncated or filled with zeros otherwise.

Thanks Pavel, but this cannot be done in pure C++ (can it?) and I prefer to write only using the stl. Can this be done using the stl?

A memory-mapped file is fixed in length so you can't do what you proposed.

Is there any chance of loading file into memory? Or it may be multi-megabyte one?

Its going to be a small file, but I am really looking for a C++ solution. File mapping is not part of the standard, as far as I know?
Thanks

If file is small, load the contents, add stuff at the beginning and write back. You can use stdio or iostreams - whatever you like.
OTOH, if there's even slight chance for large file, you shouldn't try to load all contents. Instead of copying original file, just change its name and delete it after completing the operation.

Personalyy I'd just do something simple like this:
#include <fstream>
using std::ofstream;
.
.
.
ofstream outFile("filename_here", ios::app);
outFile.seekp(0, ios::beg);
and then use outFile << "hello" << endl; to write to the file.
Maybe thats what your after. [edit] But I've been informed tat thats not what your after[/edit]

But this will overwrite first bytes. OP wants to shift existing content to make space for inserted data.

U sure... Doesn't the ios:app cause the bytes to be shifted??? Oh wait. Your right. It doesn'ts.. ok.. just read the file to memory and the put it back.

In my MMC snapin are string resources in 3 languages. The thread locale is exactly what I've set in the 'Regional settings', yet still I get the English (U.S.) resource string. I have no more clues what is going on here.
Using plain win32 API (LoadString) from the dll. No MFC involved, no messing with locale settings or resource handles.
Even the sublang of the resource is correct.
Clues, hints and even solutions are welcome.

The MSDN docs for SetThreadLocale says that it affects LoadString API. However, according to KB article Q200893, you may have problems on Win9x. The article offers a workaround using FindResourceEx API.

No way. Am using W2k/XP only. No Win9x support anymore. And I really would appreciate to avoid loading resources manually as this gets complicated with dialogs.

So you're calling SetThreadLocale, then LoadString and you're getting unexpected results?

No, I am not messing with the threads locale. But a call to GetThreadLocale verifies that I really have the correct language/sublanguage set.
I use just the LoadString call and it doesnt behave as expected/documented. Seems that it is related to the MMC/snap-in mechanism. Other apps run fine with similar configurations.

Hello Everybody ok, here is my code:
HKEY keyHandle;
char *rgValue = NULL;
PLONG buffLen = NULL;
if(RegOpenKey( HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion",
&keyHandle) == ERROR_SUCCESS)
{
//MessageBox(_T("Key was opened"));
RegQueryValue(keyHandle, "MediaPath", rgValue, buffLen );
MessageBox(rgValue);
}
What I want to do is to query the registry value of MediaPath and store it in the rgValue variable. I looked at it in MSDN and I did exactly that it says. I tryed a couple of times and nothing is being saved in rgValue. Have you guys had this problem before. What should I do? Am I missing something? Any anwer is more than welcome.
Have a good day,
Luis E. Cuadrado

You need to initialize buffLen with an address of variable containing max size of buffer before calling RegQueryValue.

Hi Tomasz:
Thank you for your quick reply. This is what I did to my code after reading your reply:
HKEY keyHandle;
char rgValue[MAX_PATH];
DWORD buffLen = MAX_PATH;
if(RegOpenKey( HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion",
&keyHandle) == ERROR_SUCCESS)
{
//MessageBox(_T("Key was opened"));
RegQueryValue(keyHandle, "MediaPath", rgValue, (PLONG) buffLen );
MessageBox(rgValue);
}
Is that what you meant by initializing buffLen? I'm new in MFC specially reading registry stuff, so I apologize for my ignorance.

It should work. BTW: 'registry stuff' you're using now isn't MFC, its plain Win32 API.

Yes, that is what he meant, except for:
LONG buffLen = MAX_PATH;
RegQueryValue(keyHandle, "MediaPath", rgValue, &buffLen );
Btw, you should use RegQueryValueEx.

It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a very long time to say, and to listen to.

Hello:
Well, I started to look to RegOpenKeyEx and RegQueryValueEx in MSDN. I used those in my code and it works. The help that you guys provided to me worked with these too. I want to thank you guys (Thomasz and Michel) for your help. I really appreciate it.
Take care,

Does anyone know if there is an API call for sending an HTML mail? As far as I know MAPI does not support the sending of HTML. Is MIME the only way to go? What other options are available? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Many people tired of SPAM toss HTML email directly to garbage. If you have something important to send, use plain text.
