Hi
My app stalls at startup because a file in the MRU list is on a network drive that doesn't exist.
The exact filename I am trying to add is "\\blah\start.txt".
I call CRecentFileList::Add from InitInstance. This Add function goes away for about 10secs before returning failure.
So I changed my code so that the Add function is only called if the file actually exists. But every function I tried (PathFileExists, _access, CFile::Open etc etc) always stalls for these 10secs.
There must be some function I can use that will check a file exists, which returns immediately... 
Any ideas?
Thanks

what's your code please ?
these functions are not so long for me...

for (POSITION pos = listFiles.GetHeadPosition(); pos; )<br />
{<br />
CString strFile = listFiles.GetNext(pos);<br />
if (_access(strFile, 0) != -1)
m_pmruFiles->Add(strFile);<br />
}<br />
This problem only occurs if I am connected to the network. If disconnected, it returns failure immediately.

this is not a problem a the function but the network access...
if you open a windows explorer and reach the networks around you, explorer will take several seconds to show you the first infos...

Yes I have come to the same conclusion. I think it is impossible to solve this problem.
Thanks for your help

I wonder why the upcasting only can happened to public inheritance? like:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
class Base
{
public:
};
class Pri : private Base
{
public:
protected:
private:
};
class Pro :protected Base
{
public:
protected:
private:
};
void func(Base* n){}
int main()
{
Pro pro;
Pri pri;
}

That's what private means.

 Hi,
I want to introduce Logs in my c++ program. which is faster fstream or 'c' language's FILE ? so that i can use in my logs.
Thanx in adv.

FILE is not a method but only a structure. so, it doesn't perform any action, and we cannot calculate a duration on it...
i think you wanted to ask for fstream methods compared with C file handling functions (fopen(), fclose(), fread(), fwrite(), fprintf(), fscanf(), ...)
insn't it ?

yes TOX u r right. which is faster fstream methods or C file handling functions................

C io library is faster. But if you want really fast IO, you should better use directly Windows API
My programming blahblahblah blog. If you ever find anything useful here, please let me know to remove it.

You're asking the wrong question. FILE is C, fstream is C++. You should use C++ if your app is in C++, even if it takes a microsecond longer. Reasons - extensibility and ability to write good code.

I would like to write some code to compare the files within a directory with a 2nd directory and see which files are either not in the 2nd dir or have been changed. The aim of which is to basically duplicate the contents of a directory to another but only changing what is essential, as I will be sending the files over the internet.
Sorry, I know that wasn't very clear, but hopefully someone will understand what I want to find out!
Thanks in advance,

I am not sure why I am getting error in displaying the output. I want output such that when I enter a string aaaabaaba... for "aaa" it shud give output 0 and "aba" it should give output 1. I am not sure where the error is??? Please help thanks is advance.
#include<iostream.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<windows.h>
char* in;
void main()
{
cout << "Enter your string here \n";
cin>>in;
while(*in != ' ') //it crashes here
{
if(strncmp(in, "aaa", 3)==0)
cout << "0";
if(strncmp(in, "aba", 3)==0)
cout << "1";
in+=3;
}
}

This sets aside the memory to store an address, but it does not actually create a block of memory to store your string to. You have a pointer, but it's not pointing to anything.
ashok123 wrote: while(*in != ' ') //it crashes here
This code is wrong on a number of levels. First of all, it requires that the string have a space in it. Secondly, because you step by three further down, it assumes that the string will be either a space, or characters in a multiple of three, and then a space. The easiest way to solve all of this is to use std::string instead of a char *, and then use std::string's functions to check the contents of the string.

Hi friends
how copy my *.* files
target folder or other place please tell me copy code for C++
|
|
|
|
|
FindFirstFile and FindNextFile can be used to find the files, and CopyFile can be used to copy them.

Hi. I use RemoveAt() to remove objects from a list every time a given object attribute reach a certain value. The problem is that the objects are reaching the point faster than RemoveAt() can remove them from list, so there's a huge queue growing. Anybody knows how I could fix it?

Hi How REad with C++ HDD Serial number ?
Please Help me

Someone can answer how can I find the calculus that the windows make to adjust the screen resolution?
Can be a link to a tutorial or something like this.

I don't understand the question ? Are you asking for the code to change the screen resolution yourself, or what ?

ok, I want to know is, why when I choose the screen resolution 1024x768
the values are these? Why not 1024x128 or 1024x963 or 1358x768?
Why these numbes? why 1024x768, 800x600, 1280x1024. What is the base for the definition of these numbers?

Screen Resolution means the number of pixels available on the monitor. You can think of a computer screen as a grid that is divided into a whole bunch of little squares. Each of these squares, or pixels, can be a different color, or black.
Resolution is the size of this grid of pixels. 1024x768 means that the screen is a 1024 by 768 grid of pixels. If the resolution is set to bigger numbers, say 1600 by 1200, each individual pixel will be smaller, and so the display is sharper and clearer.
The reason screen resolutions are not arbitrary numbers like 1358x768 is that most monitors display in a 4:3 ratio, in other words the width is 4/3 of the height. Because of the physical size of the screen, a ratio of 4:3 works. However, if the screen resolution was 1024 by 128, everything on the screen would be stretched. Instead of being little squares, the pixels would be little rectangles, and the display would look weird and distorted.
