if you want to get files or folders if you use ListBox see DlgDirList and use m_ListBox.GetCount()

here is the sample snippet

CFileFind finder;
 BOOL bWorking = finder.FindFile("*.*"); // give full path, else it will search in the current directory
 while (bWorking)
 {
    if (finder.IsDots())
       continue;

    // if it's not a directory, add it
    if (!finder.IsDirectory())
    {
        bWorking = finder.FindNextFile();
        m_ListBox.AddString((LPCTSTR) finder.GetFileName());
    }
 }

Another way to do the same thing

// The pointer to my list box.
extern CListBox* pmyListBox;

// Add all the files and directories in the windows directory.
TCHAR lpszWinPath[MAX_PATH], lpszOldPath[MAX_PATH];
::GetWindowsDirectory(lpszWinPath, MAX_PATH);

::GetCurrentDirectory(MAX_PATH, lpszOldPath);
::SetCurrentDirectory(lpszWinPath);

pmyListBox->ResetContent();
pmyListBox->Dir(DDL_READWRITE|DDL_DIRECTORY, _T("*.*"));

::SetCurrentDirectory(lpszOldPath);

	POSITION currPos;


	char strFilter[] = { "Mp3 files (*.mp3)|*.mp3|All Files (*.*)|*.*||" };

	CFileDialog avi(TRUE, ".mp3",NULL,OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT | OFN_HIDEREADONLY, strFilter);

    char drive[_MAX_DRIVE], middle[_MAX_PATH], filename[_MAX_FNAME], ext[_MAX_EXT];


     if(avi.DoModal() == IDOK)
	 { 

   currPos = avi.GetStartPosition();

     while(currPos != NULL)            
					
	 {
  m_SongName = avi.GetNextPathName(currPos);
_splitpath (m_SongName, drive, middle, filename, ext);
m_list7.AddString(m_SongName);

After this,

TCHAR lpszOldPath[MAX_PATH];
::GetCurrentDirectory(MAX_PATH, lpszOldPath);
::SetCurrentDirectory(csFolderSelecter);

pmyListBox->ResetContent();
pmyListBox->Dir(DDL_READWRITE|DDL_DIRECTORY, _T("*.mp3"));

::SetCurrentDirectory(lpszOldPath);

This will work fine Smile | :)

1. Go to Class Wizard and select required the message from the class (make sure that you have selected correct class) "Add Handler" there
2. Right click on the class and select "Add Message Handler"

one simple way insert this codes in your file(I think you need to learning VC)but anyway for solve your problem use this
in header file
afx_msg BOOL OnEraseBkgnd(CDC* pDC);

in cpp file insert

 <br />
BOOL your class name::OnEraseBkgnd(CDC* pDC) <br />
{<br />
// TODO: Add your message handler code here and/or call return CDialog::OnEraseBkgnd(pDC);<br />
}<br />

Depending on the class type (e.g. Dialog, MDI Child Frame, etc.), ClassWizard filters the messages.

To show all messages do the following:

select "Class Info" tab;
from "Message filter" combo box, choose "Window";
go back to "Message Maps" tab; now all available messages are displayed in the "Messages" list.

You should open your dialog in dialog editor and then click on caption bar of your dialog. Then go to View --> Properties Window, activate the panel with Windows messages by clicking a toolbar button. Then select WM_ERASEBKGND event and add the handler.

The simplest handler can look like this:

BOOL CMyDialog::OnEraseBkgnd(CDC * pDC)
{
	pDC->FillSolidRect(0, 0, 32000, 32000, RGB(0, 0, 255)); // blue
	return TRUE;
}

client connection failure!

Hi,
I'm looking for possible reason for the client connection failure with my server.

So for so good all clients where connected suddenly the client applications can't connect to the server appln. Only change happened is, there is a gradual increase in my users connecting & disconnecting from my server.

I use sockets for connections & when i debuged the client application with GetLastError() i receive WSAECONNREFUSED error when executing socket's 'Connect' method . I even tried telnet but receive 'couldnot open host' msg, but my server is still running & the previosuly connected clients are still receiving handshake.

Waited for few hours, still can't connect to server, do anyone know the possible reason why this is happening? this is killing me!
Thank you

Rove

from your description, I could understand that, it is the maximum number of clients that can be connected to the server.

Disconnect one of the currently connected clients and connect the new client. it should work fine.
