I want to find the difference betweeen system time and file last modified time.so iam using these APIs but these functions are not working on win98. i want to know wheather these api will work in win98
FILETIME FileUTCTime;
SYSTEMTIME SysLocalTime,SysUTCTime,FiSyLocalTime;
FileTimeToLocalFileTime(&fadSrc.ftLastWriteTime,&FileUTCTime);
FileTimeToSystemTime(&FileUTCTime,&FiSyLocalTime);
GetSystemTime(&SysUTCTime);
SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime(NULL,&SysUTCTime,&SysLocalTime);
|
|
|
|
|
The only function that will not work that you have listed is:
SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime
This function is simply not supported under any of the win9x operating systems.

does anyone here know how to set the compiler optimization mode to "default" for a single file? i'd prefer to do it with a pragma.

i found it - and i found yet another bug in MS's "Minimize Size" optimization setting.
in this case, i was throwing an exception derived from std::exception (on purpose). but, it was crashing in the _CxxThrowException code (the stuff between the "throw" and the "catch".
it worked fine in debug. it worked fine in debug with BoundsChecker. it worked fine in release mode, if built with debug info, but crashed in plain release mode. turning off optimizations in the module with the *catch* fixed the problem.
yuck!

Hi,
In a dialog based application, i have a menu and a toolbar.
It is easy for making the toolbar button for each single menu
item. But i'm lost in trying to make a toolbar button for a menu
item which has a number of sub menu items.
How to do this?
Thanks in advance!

What is the best way to use XML in C++ 6.0? DOM or SAX, wich is the easiest and efficient way to read and write data.
examples and comments welcome
thanks

The DOM works well for small files, SAX for larger ones.

One more thing to consider with the DOM versus SAX,
The DOM creates persistant data for your XML. It will read the data in and create an internal structure that you can refer back to whenever you need to read from a certain node.
The SAX on the other hand is a one pass mechanism, where you will use the APIs to read and write the data. The data is not persistant in the SAX API so once it has been read, it is forgotten and you are responsible for persiting the data in your app.

The downside with SAX is that you almost inevitably end up writing FSA style stuff to deal with the incoming data, and there's no support for navigating the document as in DOM.
While writing a state machine isn't exactly rocket science, if you have never done it before there are many things to watch out for.

How to send a message from a parent window to child window...can i use post message for this...but i don't know how to select the the parameter UINT for the post message..can i use WM_USER..what is its format if i want to send a
string value?

You can send a message to any window as long as you have the handle to the window and there is a message handler to catch the message in the receiving window.

I assume you want to send a custom message...
Use WM_USER to create the message id. Then you can send 0 or whatever as the uiParam and send a pointer to the string (LPCSTR works) as the lParam. You will have to cast it back to a string in the message handler.

There's a catch with sending strings, though. If you use PostMessage, there's no guarantee that your message will be processed at a particular time (like, before PostMessage returns).
So code like
{
char x[128];
SetupMyString(x);
PostMessage(otherWindow, WM_USER, 0, (LPARAM)x);
}
may well die a horrible death. If you need to do this, you either need a longer lived string, or alternatively, you could allocate, and have the receiver deallocate, but that relies on you having the source for the receiver to modify it in this way.

I want to put a version of my app on my website that will allow someone to install and use the app on their machine for a limited time for evaluation purposes. Has anyone had any dealings with this and if so, how would I go about doing that?

Personally, I hid a file amongst the system directory, and used it in conjuction with a registry entry to fail after a month, and to fail if anyone tried to play with the registry or reset their system clock.

I know that it is possible to use RegNotifyChangeKeyValue() to monitor changes in a particular registry key. But even this does not work if they key is deleted. Am I right?
But how can I find out if someone has reset the system clock? Is there a similar function for this? Or would I have to write my own? If so, could you please give me any hints as to how to go about it?
Thanks very much. 
Regards,
Rohit Sinha

By hiding the information elsewhere on the computer, so that if your program is run and the clock has gone back more than an hour since the last time, they changed it. You would also store the registry information there - the registry would be a smokescreen for your real, hidden system.

it's very difficult to do this 100%... but, as a first try:
1. when your program starts, look in the registry for a key that your app would have created, if it has already run once. if the key isn't there, create it and add a DWORD value. set that value to the result from time().
2. if the key is there, get the value from the registry, get the current time, compare the two.
3. expire if difftime > X
that's a very basic way to do it. it's easy to beat, by just deleting the registry key or changing the system clock. but, if you don't think your customers are that sophisticated, this might be enough.
you can get much more complex, from here.
