no, I mean services start up usually in a set order - you make your service dependant on one of these .. but you dont want to create a service .. hmmm
how about using something like this http://www.codeproject.com/system/xyntservice.asp[^] to start your program, rather than the reg key - Im pretty sure you can still start this service dependant on another service being 'started' - that might give you what you need

What about replacing HKLM->Software->Microsoft->Windows NT->CurrentVersion->Winlogon->Shell instead with your app. Your app can then provide it's interface and spawn explorer.exe if user is ok.

1. As mentioned, when registering a service you can specify that it depends on other services. This makes the service manager check that the dependent services are running before it starts yours.
2. There are a couple of ways to check for idle time. Most are for checking time since last mouse/keyboard usage (which doesn't help you on machine startup).
One that may help is WaitForInputIdle: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms687022.aspx[^] You could get the handle of a process you know has to be running before yours (e.g. winlogon or explorer) and wait for it to idle.
If you are using Vista you may want to look at the new task manager interfaces like IIdleTrigger: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa380724.aspx[^]
For pre-Vista you may want to look at IScheduledWorkItem: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa381216.aspx[^]
2.1 SetPriorityClass: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms686219.aspx[^] but i don't think this will help you in any way.
I would try using WaitForInputIdle on winlogon.exe or explorer.exe.
If that didn't work i would write a small service that was dependent on one i knew needed to be started and have your app wait on your service (e.g. either through checking service via service manager, or have service create a named mutex, ...).

MFC VC 6.0 problem.
Could someone help me to fix this?
I changed my computer time and now I am getting this error.
I really do not need the help files at this point.
How do I delete them?
I tried to exclude all help files from compilation but it did not help.
Here is the error message
Making help include file...
'makehm' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
'makehm' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

In FileView, select the files you want to remove from the project, then press Delete.

I wish it was that simple.
It does not work.
I still get the same errors.

makehm.exe is called by makehelp.bat, which you will find is invoked in the custom build settings for (project_name).hpj. It is the file that processes resource.h to extract resource IDs to make many of the automatic help links of MFC work (e.g. pressing help in a dialog).
So if you do as Mike suggests and delete (project_name).hpj from the project the problem will disappear. However the cause is a worry if you ever do want to build help files as makehm.exe is a Microsoft utility located on my machine at
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Tools

Thanks for reply. It is getting little more complicated. My .hm file just vanished from my project files. I just copied it in from another project (I think that is not the best way to do that, but it works for now).
Now I am getting Cannot find "hcw" ..., but it aventually compiles.
I think the real issue is that my date of \Debug directory "creation" changed to year 2020 ( don't know how) and now the compiler wants to always recompile beacuse it thinks it is out of synch.
Funny part is tha the actual files have correct date, just the directory is messed up.
So, anybody knows how to "roll back " the date?
I'll try to buil Release and the rebult the Debug, maybe that will work.

You don't need the .hm file to be there, it is an output from the build. One from another project is almost certainly useless - it is made from your resource.h file.
Vaclav_Sal wrote: Cannot find "hcw"
hcw.exe is the microsoft help workshop, on my machine located at
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Tools
so it sounds as if you have a corrupted VS installation.
Vaclav_Sal wrote: date of \Debug directory "creation" changed to year 2020
You can simply delete the debug directory - it should be recreated at build time if it isn't there, but I doubt that the /debug directory creation time has anything to do with things.
Did you delete (project name).hpj from the project? If you go into project settings, for this file you will see a custom build step that invokes makehelp.bat, you should find makehelp.bat in your project directory, and if you have a look inside it you will find where makehm.exe and hcw.exe are called. Deleting the .hpj file from the project will stop this custom build step.
As I said before, I think that you have a corrupted VS installation and rather than keep chasing these things, I'd reinstall.

Can't you just change the project's dependency list (so that the "help project" is no longer part of that list)?

This is why I asked all these silly questions.
a) I have no .hpj file nowhere in my project - so I cannot delete it.
b) There are no dependencies on help anything
c) I did reinstal my VC and it still fails.
d) I do not see any "customization" ( in Settings) regarding help files.
Basically - unless I edit make file I am stuck with this.
BTW I did compile the help file without any problems on different mashine but every time I want to run the debugger I have to recompile because files are "out of date".
Time to start over with my project.
Thanks for all your help.

Have you verified this?

Are you indeed using a makefile?

I'm having problems with an aplication I'm working on that uses basic authentication over a https connection. The problem is a call to Wininets HttpSendRequest which is sometimes sending two requests the first request without credentials the second with the credentials i.e username and password. I have been setting the username and password using InternetSetOption which succeeds and I'm actually checking the credentials using the InternetQueryOption function which is indicating my calls are successful. However using the application HttpAnalyzer I'm seeing two request, most of the time the first without credentials and the second with credentials, being sent.
|
|
|
|
|
In my downloader, I specify the user/pass in InternetConnect(), not InternetSetOption(). Try moving the user/pass to InternetConnect() and see if that changes things. Also check that you're passing the INTERNET_FLAG_SECURE flag to HttpOpenRequest().
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks for the response and I am passing the INTERNET_FLAG_SECURE to the httpCreateRequest() function. And I'm sure I can modify my application to pass the the credentials to InternetConnect() but I'd rather know why InternetSetOption() isn't working as designed. On a side note I have been using InternetQueryOption() function to make sure they are correct after setting them. Adding the seccurity headers manuanlly also works. I work for a internet multimedia company and the extra msgs are painfull.

Hi,
I am trying to call ShellExecute() to run an .exe that takes 1 or more file paths as command line parameter(s).
Although when I format a string like:
""C:\\file1.txt" "C:\\file2.txt" "C:\\file3.txt""
as the lpParameters param I always get an SE_ERR_ACCESSDENIED error.
Am I using the correct command line formatting, as if I pass a ""
(NULL string) as lpParameters the function runs the exe OK.
Many Thanks.
