C / C++ / MFC

16-Jun-05 21:46

Hello everybody,

I am a newbie in Windows Programming (I began yesterday), and I have to find two methods for a project but I don't find functions I need and it's very urgent (I have 2 weeks).

1 - Detect when a directory or file started being shared
2 - Share a directory

I work with Visual c++ 6.0...

I have find the function : ReadDirectoryChangesW... for the first question but I am not sure it works for sharing...

NetShareEnum for share a directory, NetShareCheck and NetShareAdd

Thank you for your response, it helps me a lot!

But, NetShareCheck tells only if a specific directory is shared, I need rather a function which notified me that a directory starting being shared.

I think particulary about an association of ReadDirectoryChangesW and NetShareCheck...

I am going on my search.
Thank you again, and if you have another idea, I am open on every suggestion which could help me to progress!

Man, I'm glad I'm not you!

It is possible to determine if a directory is shared on the network. But what they appear to be asking for is a monitoring program. What I mean by that, is a program that is constanly checking if a directory has started being shared (not a program that knows the information when it firsts starts).

Now there is the possibility that the server may log this information (I dought it), if it does then the access to the information is probabaly undocumented (Welcome to Windows programming). Before you ask how to retrieve the information, you need to know if the information is there to be retrieved (ask the administrator or a network guy). If the server does not log the information, then they are asking for a monitoring program (if they know it or not).

Monitoring probably means calling NetShareEnum and noting the time when your program first started checking and noting when any change has occured, there-after.

Good Luck!

Hello thank you for your response,

I understand what you mean, but I am going to reformulate my question because my problem is less tricky than you thought (hummm...I hope).

So, my problem is to detect on my computer and only on my computer when a directory start to be share.

Between us...I would prefer to have more time and more documentation, source, etc.

Thank you, for your response, If this precision help you to understand my problem, I'll be glad to have your help

Does FindFirstChangeNotification() help?

I am getting error"The host name in the certificate is invalid or does not match."

17-Jun-05 2:41

Yes it does,

I think it's possible to use on of these functions :
ReadDirectoryChangesW,
FindFirstChangeNotification(),
NetShareCheck,
NetShareAdd.

Now, I am going to test and see...

None of these functions answer precisely to my request, but I think it's possible to do sthg...
let's go coding...

If you have something else...I am listening all day long, thank you!

Hi Guys... I am stuck in a problem.
To suppress the error "The host name in the certificate is invalid or does not match.", I have added a flag "INTERNET_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_DATE_INVALID" in my code. But still getting message.
---------------------------------------------------

CString csPostString = strQry;
CString csObject;
INTERNET_PORT nPort;
DWORD dwServiceType;
DWORD dwHttpRequestFlags;

csUrl = strSiteUrl.c_str();
AfxParseURL(csUrl, dwServiceType, csServerName, csObject, nPort);

if ( dwServiceType == AFX_INET_SERVICE_HTTP )
dwHttpRequestFlags = INTERNET_FLAG_EXISTING_CONNECT | INTERNET_FLAG_NO_AUTO_REDIRECT;

else if ( dwServiceType == AFX_INET_SERVICE_HTTPS )
{
dwHttpRequestFlags = INTERNET_FLAG_EXISTING_CONNECT |
INTERNET_FLAG_NO_AUTO_REDIRECT |
INTERNET_FLAG_RELOAD |
INTERNET_FLAG_NO_CACHE_WRITE |
INTERNET_FLAG_SECURE |
INTERNET_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_DATE_INVALID |
INTERNET_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_CN_INVALID;

}

else {
SendError(-1, "Bad URL to connect to server" );
return false;
}

TRY
{
pConnect = session.GetHttpConnection( csServerName, nPort );

pFile = pConnect->OpenRequest(CHttpConnection::HTTP_VERB_POST,
csObject, NULL, 1, NULL, NULL, dwHttpRequestFlags);

// step 3.
pFile->QueryOption( INTERNET_OPTION_SECURITY_FLAGS, dwHttpRequestFlags );

dwHttpRequestFlags |= SECURITY_FLAG_IGNORE_UNKNOWN_CA;
// Set the new security flags
pFile->SetOption( INTERNET_OPTION_SECURITY_FLAGS, dwHttpRequestFlags );

pFile->AddRequestHeaders(szHeaders);
pFile->SendRequest(NULL, 0, (LPVOID)(LPCTSTR)csPostString, csPostString.GetLength());
}
CATCH(CInternetException, eInet)
{
if (eInet->m_dwError = 1238)
{

AfxMessageBox("Error");

}
eInet->GetErrorMessage(szErrorCause, sizeof(szErrorCause));
SendError(eInet->m_dwError, szErrorCause);
goto cleanup;
}
AND_CATCH(CException, eGeneric)
{
eGeneric->GetErrorMessage(szErrorCause, sizeof(szErrorCause));
SendError(-1, szErrorCause);
goto cleanup;
}
END_CATCH

Hello,

I would like to know if we can use winsock functions in a Dll?
If yes please give an example for the same.
