You can use the String splitting functions of CString Left, Right, Mid. For searching after certain characters you can use the Find methods.

But you have to keep in mind that those are index based functions, so you have to either rely on fixed index positions or your string has to contain nearly the same content.

As far as I know there is no special MFC API for something like this.
You will probably need to call the relevant Win32API.

I have no idea which this may be, though, as I did not understand your request.
Please rephrase what you want to do.

Failure is not an option - it's built right in.

Call ::RegisterDeviceNotification() from your application to receive WM_DEVICECHANGE messages, more info here[^].
Set it up properly so you can get a DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE structure appointed by the lParam parameter in the message which contains the GUID, more info here[^].

This may not be too helpful but...
I had to do a similar job a couple of months ago, detect USB drive insertion accross as wide a range on Windows OS versions as possible and determine the drive letter mapping. It turned out to be a 2 week job and required downloading the Windows 2000 DDK to get the right headers to make it work. I can't send you the code as it was for my work but you might want to clear some space in your schedule for this one. You'll need the Device Notification stuff already mentioned above, that is the way to go. It probably won't work at first and the docs are bad but stick at it, It can be done Wink | ;)

Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.

You can use the CFileDialog class to show a file opendialog( Like one you see in when you click on the open menu of IE )

CFileDialog dlg( TRUE );
if( IDOK == dlg.DoModal())// shows a file open dialog
{
return false;// some error
}
// now you can get the file name
CString csFile = dlg.GetPathName();
// Set this string to the edit box
SetDlgItemText( IDC_EDIT/*spefiy the id of edit here*/, csFile );

Creating Setup

Hi everybody.

I have created a Setup for my app. I have developed in Visual C++, MFC.
The app need some log files, config files, and some icon.
I added all of the in the correct path to the setup.

I run the app and it said that the file "ntwdblib.dll" was missing. So I added.
I run the app and it said that the file "MFC42D.dll" was missing. So I added.
I run the app and it said that the file "MSVCRTD.dll" was missing. So I added.
I run the app and it said that the file "MFCO42D.dll" was missing. So I added.

After that, my app does not make any error, does not appear, does nothing. I know the app starts but it just finishes after starting, I checked with the task administrator. What could it be?

Can someone help me?

1. When an application is delivered for thrid party usage, it must be build in the release verion. I doubt your application is now build using the debug configuration( thats why a dependency to MFC42D.dll, MSVCRTD.dll etc came )

2. Use the Dependeny walker to find out the necessry dll need by your application and add it to your installtion setup( Ignore the dll's coming with the OS ).

This is because you havent include the Ws2_32.lib in the project setting( project settings->Link-> In the object/library module edit box, enter Ws2_32.lib )

You haven't include the lib file corresponding to the function dbdead(). Find it and add it in the same location as above( May be you can get it from the debug configuration ).

Release and debug configurations have both separate options, so everything that you set for the debug version (like include paths or additional libraries), you should also set it for the release version.

Can you explain it? Do you mean that the path I have been using may not be the correct ones in the release version? So, how do I know the correct paths in that case?

What I mean is that:
If you changed some settings in the project properties when working in debug mode (for example, you added a new include path or you specified a library to link your project to), all these settings will be 'lost' when you switch to release mode. So, you have to configure all of that once again. A way to avoid that (in VS2005) is to choose "All configurations" when you do a change in the project properties.

It seems that in release mode you are not linking against the socket library (and you do that for the debug version because you don't have errors when building).

Ok, I know understand.

When changing to release version is like reseting the options, so I have to fill again all the option such us libraries. That was the error.
