A number of companies offer code signing certificates, for prices from $100-200. I'm wondering if some are better than others, or perhaps the tools some provide make them worth the extra expense.
Anyone have any thoughts on who is the best to go with?

I doubt anyone has a "best of" list... We use a VeriSign code signing certificate, and are happy with it. It works.
I am not sure what else can be said about it.

Whichever authority is recognized automagically by the browser/OS is best.
Otherwise, you may as well make your own certs (which works fine too).

we just got one from Comodo, this weekend. the process was pretty easy (after a couple of rounds of verification).
they didn't provide any tools, since the things you need (basically just SIGNTOOL.EXE) are all part of MS's SDKs.

FWIW - I second Comodo. I have a CS cert from them as well and am very happy with it.
Peace!

Hi,
I'm presently coding a driver for Windows XP and I'm having an issue: how to detect the keyboard layout?
Actually I need to detect if my driver is running on a computer with an azerty or qwerty keyboard. The best would be to be able to detect the keyboard layout for the current process. I know the GetKeyboardLayoutName API, but I have no idea what would be the equivalent in kernel mode if there is one...
Does someone know how to do that?
Regards

i never used, a little search on msdn gives,

HKL GetKeyboardLayout( DWORD idThread
); per thread, its more granular than current process. 
Manthis wrote: I have no idea what would be the equivalent in kernel mode
and in wince it has corresponding MDD driver function
typedef HKL (*PFN_LAYOUT_MGR_GET_KEYBOARD_LAYOUT)(
DWORD idThread
);
i think there should be something similar in windows also

Well I knew these two functions but I'm pretty new to driver developpement, and I'm can't find their equivalent for windows kernel developpement.
I might I've found a hint with this request: IOCTL_KEYBOARD_QUERY_ATTRIBUTES, but I'm really not sure.
Can someone confirm?

Hi,
I have some function that get void* param.
And i want to send CString object.
So - this is my code - and i don't see any reason that my CString would not work when i doing casting back from void* to CString.
<br />
CString sStr("SomeString")<br />
Foo(void*(&sStr) );
<br />
void Foo(void* p)<br />
{<br />
CString __sStr = *(CString*)p;
}<br />
Thanks for any help.

Actually your code, though not beautyful, works.

may be the objects life time is not in the scope.

string is copied to __sStr, is for this purpose u troubled urself to pass as pointer. instead u can pass by value;
personally i prefer reference in this situation.
void Foo(CString &str);

Actually the recommended way is to pass as a LPCTSTR and return as a CString, see here[^]

good link dude but when i just opened my eyes looks this,
"If a string is an input to a function, in most cases it is best to declare the string function parameter as LPCTSTR. Convert to a CString object as necessary within the function using constructors and assignment operators. If the string contents are to be changed by a function, declare the parameter as a nonconstant CString reference (CString&)."
that if u want to modify a CString, CString &.
LPCTSTR is for const readonly object. And i don't see it is the recommended way, it is one of the way.
when i want to pass the readonly object to a MFC C++ function, i prefer "const CString &" than LPCTSTR as it requires to call constructor and destructor additionally to get a CString Object and i try to avoid it.
offcource, if i want to pass to a C function, that is not aware of CString, then LPCTSTR or LPTSTR is the fit.

Maybe it's the missing semicolon.
Yanshof wrote: Foo(void*(&sStr) ); //call the function
Or the missing parenthesis.
Other than that, your code works fine in VC6.

Hi experts,
I have retrived all files and folders from RecycleBin. How can I make a path so that I can open handle for Recycle Bin files.
|
|
|
|
|
The recycle bin isn't a *real* folder, so therefore the "files" in it are not real - so no handle to read from them.
They're *deleted*...
That said, I'm sure there's some undelete shell method, but it may only put them back in their original location with original permissions. I'd suspect any other way would be a security hole. You put "sandras secrit diary" onto FAT32 memory stick, and be able to read all about her affair with Brad. And that would be BAD.
If you haven't already discovered it, the following article may be of some use to you.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/shell/recyclebin.aspx[^]
That said, I haven't yet found an "undelete" interface with a quick google.
Have a look at:

It gives a load of information that could be handy for you.
