Hi,

Any API's in C++ or VC++ that will help me to fetch the configuration properties of the IIS. I'm looking for fetching the Root path and the Virtual directory path information.

Regards,

Mayur M

"the IIS"? Really? There's only one installation of IIS in the entire universe? I'm pretty sure I have more than one right here in my own office, let me check... yes indeed I have two right here. Well given that reality I suppose we need some slightly more specific information from you in order to help. For the moment we will pretend that you not already realizing this, is a sign that you are attempting something beyond your current knowledge base. But hey, that never stops any of the hundreds of others we see copy/pasting their way around the internet.

Have you tried:

if (ver == ver2)

David, Thanks for response. I found the problem. This C++ Exe is used to call my .net web service from client machine. So it was quite difficult to debug. But finally I have found the problem, it was with some return value. and solved . Wink | ;)

Again thanks.

CString defined lots of constructors such as CString(LPCWSTR lpsz) & CString(LPCWSTR lpch, int nLength);

CString ver;
wchar_t* ver2;
...
CString ver3(ver2);
if(ver==ver3){
...
}else{
...
}

Implementing queues along with threads

Hi all,
my requirement is there is a function which creates one thread and passes the data for further processing which looks like
void MyFunc(char *data)
{
CreateThread(NULL,0,build_data,(void *)data,0,NULL);
}
Now i want to modify the above code.
I want to introduce a queue class and want to create two threads so that 1st thread can invoke a function which writes the data to the queue and the 2nd thread reads the data from the queue. Please introduce mutex if required. Can you tell me how to implement the above in VC++.
Please help me on the above. Thanks

This sounds a bit like the producer/consumer problem.

CFile output - Problem - An extra White space

Hi there.

I am writing a string into a .txt file, but I am getting an extra while space in between each char.
Please suggest me, why this is so.

For Eg. if I write Hello, it will be written as H e l l o.

Thanks
PanB

I'm going to put on my psychic hat...

You are not getting a space between letters, you are getting a NULL.

Your text in the compiler is a TCHAR, and that defaults to unicode these days.

You're looking at the text in notepad, and it's reading it as ascii...

You will be a better person afterwards, and will no longer kick puppies for fun.

If your're passing string something like this, _T("Hai"), according to the unicode settings of project, the string will be treated as unicode characters which means two bytes per character. That's the reason for this issue.

CFile::Write will take any kind of inputs. If you've the string with you,
you can writes as file1.Write( "Hai", 3 ); or convert using WideCharToMultibyte API or W2A conversion macros and then write the file.

If you want to write and save the file as unicode text file, then you will have to add BOM characters before writing to file.

Database with password

10-Mar-09 1:56

Hello,
ask to help me with 2 problems.
Access-database has password and open by
try
{
hr = m_pConnection->Open(_bstr_t (lpstrConnection), ...);
return hr == S_OK;
}
catch(_com_error &e)
{}
1) When database file has attribute "ReadOnly" catch takes place with NativeError=0xfffff88f and NumberError=80004005 ("Not a valid password").
But when ja reset attribute "ReadOnly", database is opened OK. Why error is detected for Readonly file?
2) How can I recognize that invalid password is in connection string? Which code will be in NativeError for any database type (not only Access)in this case?

Thanks

Is it readonly at the OS level or at the application (i.e., Access) level?

map in mfc

Hi to everyone,

I am breaking my head to find a proper example how to use map of STL in mfc. But didnt get.
Could anyone please help me out with the same. Please give me the exact syntax to use them.

I want to create a map with 3 fields (like a table)

id, name, RegNo

thanks in advance

I am a beginner

I think a map is between one thing (key) and another thing (object). [*]

But you could package the name and regno in a structure together, then map between the id and otherstuffstruct...

As suggest by Iain, you may use a struct, for instance, assuming id unique (see, for instance, [^]):

#include <map>
using namespace std;
struct MyData
{
  string _name;
  int _regNo;
  MyData(string name, int regNo): _name(name), _regNo(regNo){}
};

void main()
{
  map <int, MyData> mymap;
  mymap.insert(pair <int, MyData>(1, MyData("foo", 10)));
}

BTW MFC hai is own CMap container, but keep away from it!
