ShFileOperation (or IFileOperation ) is your friend.
look at the documentation on MSDN.
Watched code never compiles.

Hi,
i forgot to say that this is a directory in a LAN?
In this case, do i have to do the same, to use same function SHFileOperation for network operations???
When i tray to do this, i receive an error like this "Invalid File path"??
Thanks

Beware to string escapes: LAN names like \\server\share\dir\file.ext should be "\\\\server\\share\\dir\\file.ext".
It is one of the most common errors.

An alternative to SHFileOperation is using MoveFile[^] or MoveFileEx[^] APIs. These functions can rename either a file or a directory.

Try
MoveFile(LPCTSTR currentNameOfFolder,LPCTSTR newNameOfFolder);
Example:
MoveFile(_T("D:\\TestFolder\\RenameMe"),_T("D:\\TestFolder\\MyNewName"));

if ( hFile != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )
{
if ((wfd.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY)!=0)
MessageBox(NULL,_T("Is Directory"),_T(""),MB_OK);

The "\" is known as the (or one of?) "escape" character.
that means that if you want to put a tab, for example in a string you would put "\t" to indicate a tablature; that means that the string will look at the "\" and the next character after that and see a "t" and will understand it as a "tablature" (same thing for quotes and double quotes)
so, in general, when a string (CString) encounters a "\" in a string it will check the next character and see if it means something.
the question is how can I put a literal "\" in string without being recognize as an escape character ?
the anwser is to double the "\" ...
str = "C:\\Windows";
When hard-coding paths in string one should always put "\\", but, for example, if you have a UI with an edit box to type in the path, you don't need to use the "\\" you can just use the "\".

Of course '\' is the only C/C++ escape character for literal strings.
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

You should also print out the contents of wfd.cFileName to see exactly which file or directory you are displaying attributes for.

i agree with you. But i want to do it programatically. I want to replace \ with ''\\''. Please help

The '\\' notation is only needed for the compiler. It isn't needed in the runtime. (when you select a file from the open file dialog, the path is returned as "C:\New Folder"
If you want to replace them for other reasons, then use 4 '\'. i.e. to specify a SMB server, you would use CString strServer = "\\\\server_name\\folder";.
To replace it you just need a replace function. If you are using something liks CString, it as a Replace() method.
CString strName = "\\hello";
strName.Replace("\\", "\\\\");

Hello guys!
I have to connect to WebDAV Server, example: http://webdav.pspace.co.kr
But I cannot find any code example for DavAddConnection Function.
And, in MSDN I found this:
"Use this function when you are connecting to a WebDAV server using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol and therefore must specify a certificate. To connect to a WebDAV server without specifying a certificate, use a Windows networking function such as WNetAddConnection2 or WNetAddConnection3."
Does anyone know some examples of DavAddConnection?
Found some code examples for WNetAddConnection2 and tried to connect, but, unsuccessfully.
CString passW=_T("pwd123");
CString userN=_T("user1");
CString locname=_T("webdav.pspace.co.kr");
DWORD dwRetVal;
NETRESOURCE nr;
DWORD dwFlags;
memset(&nr, 0, sizeof (NETRESOURCE));
nr.dwType = RESOURCETYPE_ANY;
nr.lpLocalName = (LPTSTR)((LPCTSTR)locname);
nr.lpRemoteName = (LPTSTR)((LPCTSTR)locname);
nr.lpProvider = NULL;
dwFlags = CONNECT_UPDATE_PROFILE;
dwRetVal = WNetAddConnection2(&nr, passW, userN, FALSE);
if (dwRetVal == NO_ERROR)
AfxMessageBox(_T("Connection added to"));
else
AfxMessageBox(_T("Error"));
I'm getting "Error".
By the way, I'm I doing right trying to connect to WebDAV server via this technic?
Thank you.

Use this to see what error you are getting. That may shed some light on what may be causing it
if (dwRetVal == NO_ERROR)
AfxMessageBox(_T("Connection added to"));
else {
TCHAR szError[32];
_stprintf(szError, _T("Error %u"), dwRetVal);
AfxMessageBox(szError);
}

Thanks for the reply.
I'm getting "Error 487".
|
|
|
|
|
MSDN[^] says
Error Name: ERROR_INVALID_ADDRESS
Error Code: 487 (0x1E7)
Error Text: Attempt to access invalid address.
|
|
|
|
|
Check out your last parameter in WNetAddConnection2(&nr, passW, userN, FALSE);
According to MSDN[^] 0 is not a legal value for the parameter dwFlags and FALSE is #define FALSE 0.
Did you mean to pass in your variable dwFlags? (in the sample on MSDN they do)

Hello.
I have tried a couple of thing to make the code work. But, still, I cannot connect to our WebDAV server "webdav.pspace.co.kr". 
But, using the code shown below, I'm getting a positive answer: "Connection added to":
CString locname=_T("\\\\www.barracudaserver.com\\dav\\");
DWORD dwRetVal;
NETRESOURCE nr;
DWORD dwFlags;
memset(&nr, 0, sizeof (NETRESOURCE));
nr.dwScope=RESOURCE_GLOBALNET;
nr.dwType = RESOURCETYPE_ANY;
nr.lpLocalName = NULL;
nr.lpRemoteName = (LPTSTR)((LPCTSTR)locname);
nr.lpProvider = _T("");
dwFlags = CONNECT_UPDATE_PROFILE;
dwRetVal = WNetAddConnection2(&nr, _T(""), _T(""), dwFlags);
if (dwRetVal == NO_ERROR)
{
AfxMessageBox(_T("Connection added to"));
}
else
{
TCHAR szError[32];
_stprintf(szError, _T("Error %u"), dwRetVal);
AfxMessageBox(szError);
}
In the case of locname=_T("\\\\webdav.pspace.co.kr\\") the result is "Error 53:", which means "The network path you specified is not found."
May be something is wrong with the server or may be I'm using the wrong approach.
Any ideas?..
