You could check for a 'flag' in some configuration file or the registry. After your app runs, set the flag to some other value (or remove it).

ok, but how do you detect that windows has reboot??, i mean i put a registry key called "doUpdate" value=false then i start my app i change that registry to true, so the next i launch my app it will not show the message that is ok, but how to reset that value when windows is restarted?

You might could take advantage of the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run key by putting a small app there that runs the next time Windows is started.

ok i did that but every time windows starts up i shows the black window and then closes is kind of anoying is there a parameter to put there so it runs silently?
|

It shows a black window because you made a console application.
Make a normal win32 one, just don't create any windows.
Have it set a registry value
(eg) HKCU\Software\ManchukuoSoft\MyAmazingApp\Rebooted = 1
Then, when your real MyAmazingApp is run, check the value, and maybe show a message. Then clear that value.
Job done!

Thanks guys that did the work!!!  . This is Fixed

Perhaps you could create a registry key using RegCreateKeyEx[^] and use REG_OPTION_VOLATILE as the option.
Hope that helps.

you will need 2 programs for this. One will run as autorun (startup) and set a value in registry (say reboot = true). Another program whent started by user, will check this value in registry and if it is true then display your messagebox and set the value to false.

Has anyone tried implementing HTTPS protocol in a C++ application.
I started reading the RFC2818, but I'm confused over implementation.
|
|
|
|
|
I would recommend RFC2616[^] as a starting point and than blend it with a SSL/TLS library instead of using TCP. The library should take care of most encryption/certificates handling (e.g. have a look at OpenSSL, GnuTLS, Microsoft's CryptoAPI). Alternatively use a library from the shelf that offer HTTPS (e.g. libcurl, WinInet, QHttp).
You need to decide if you want to implement everything yourself or take an existing C++ library. First will teach you a lot about networking protocols, later gives you the result right away. Hope this helps!

Nice reply in general. I'd change the bit I quoted to read as follows:
The first will teach you a lot about networking protocols and convince you to go with the second.

Hi i have an MFc application which is compiled in Visual studio 6 .
I have created a dll that is compiled in VS2005.
It works fine on development machine giving me all desired results.
But after deploying the exe and dll on Other machine which is meant to be for testing purpose. I copied all the dependent dll in the same folder is required for dll that is compiled on VS2005.
But the dll is failed to load using loadlibrary.
To solve this issue i created a setup of MSM of Visual studio Merge module and installed on the Testing machine. I was expecting that this will atleast solve my prioblem but it also failed to load dll.
Any one has suggestion that how this can be achieved?
|
|
|
|
|
try Depends[^] to see if there are any missing DLLs.

Did you call GetLastError() to find out why?

Thanks guys for response.
I tried depends and added the necessary dll for that and GetLastError too.
And according to that The operation was successful.

Hi all,
I want to make a picture control in which i can display various types of images like bmp, png, ico and i want at runtime if i select a path than that images should display according to path.
But my problem is i don't want to use gdiplus lib in my code....
Can i do this work without using gdiplus if yes than how so
Thanks in advance

The CxImage[^] library would do the trick for you.

|
|

there are dozens of graphics libraries out there.

Why don't you like GDI+ (just curiosity)?

Why not ?
Is is an school assignment about image formats ? or do you really need to loose time and effort to re-invent the wheel on a paid salary ?
Watched code never compiles.

Hi Experts
I need at() feature in my STL List. can anyone help me out?
With Regards

Maybe you should use a vector[^] which has at built in. Alternatively you could write your own using an iterator, but it's probably not worth the trouble.
It's time for a new signature.
|
|
|
|
|
If you need direct access to an element at a specific index in your list, why don't use a vector instead of a list ?
|
|
|
|
|
std::list is not a "random access" sequence (i.e. cannot use a random access iterator).
Watched code never compiles.
|
|
|
|
|
As Richard and the others have said, use vector if you can. If you really really really must have at-like functionality you can use std::advance to do it.
Cheers,
Ash
