Yes, but you should call GetLastError IMMEDIATELY after it (and immediately before it to clear Previous Errors) Pass the return value of GetLastError to your Error Display function if things go sour!
The way you did it, you have NO guarantee that other API functions are NOT called, before your Display function calls GetLastError().

You do not show the code for the DisplayLastError() function. I also wonder why you are casting a character constant to a CString. Chances are that one of these two is causing the erroneous message.

First, CreateFile() is not a boolean function so checking its return value as such is wrong. Second, you need to call GetLastError() as soon as the error is detected, like:
DeviceHandle = CreateFile(detailData->DevicePath,
0,
FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE,
NULL,
OPEN_EXISTING,
0,
NULL);
if (DeviceHandle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
LPVOID lpMsgBuf;
FormatMessage(FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER | FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM,
NULL,
GetLastError(),
MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_DEFAULT),
(LPTSTR) &lpMsgBuf,
0,
NULL);
...
LocalFree(lpMsgBuf);
}

Richard this is the code for DisplayLastError:
void CHIDTest2008Dlg::DisplayLastError(CString Operation)
{
LPVOID lpMsgBuf;
USHORT Index = 0;
CString strLastError;
FormatMessage(
FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER |
FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM |
FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS,
NULL,
GetLastError(),
MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_DEFAULT),
(LPTSTR) &lpMsgBuf,
4096,
NULL
);
strLastError = Operation + (LPCTSTR)lpMsgBuf;
strLastError.TrimRight();
Index = m_ResultsList.InsertString(-1, strLastError);
ScrollToBottomOfListBox(Index);
LocalFree(lpMsgBuf);And I believe you are correct in saying that the CString cast is causing the error. If I call GetLastError immediately after entering my OnBnClick funtion I get the error. At that point no API call has been made (other than the ones the system is doing). Also, by turning off unicode and going to MBCS, all the error messages disappeared. That points to the CString cast.
Ian, the code you show is the way I am doing it now. Since none of my API calls are failing I am not getting any error messages.

Hi everyone. I'm a newbee that's exhausted the Internet already, so I joined the forum.
I'm attempting to create a file on the Desktop under the Vista environment, which is not user dependent. e.g
ofstream file;
file.open("c:\\%userprofile%\\Desktop\\report.txt");
if (!file){
cerr <<"Unable to open file report.txt";
exit(1);
}
but cannot seem to make this happen on the c drive (desktop).
Thanks in advance.

You should be able to just call %userprofile%\desktop without having the c:\ at the front. if you open your command prompt and type in %userprofile% it'll then give you an error message but it will expand the %userprofile% to it's actual value.
Hope that helps

Unless it contains spaces.

I see the expansion in which you are speaking of from the cmd window. However, since %userprofile% yields the msg. "...' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.", I'm wondering if this is the same reason %userprofile% does not work from within my program. I'm beginning to think it's the vista platform

Yes, I've tried various forms... e.g. without c:\ without success...

|

Maybe stupid but if you open a DOS-window and type in SET (enter) is your userprofile there?

Sorry to say this but I believe you are misunderstanding the use of environment variables.
Apart from the fact that the string you are using is wrong ( the variable already contains the drive letter and as already pointed out may contain spaces) do you know the call you are making with apply environment variable expansion?
I prefer not to leave things to chance by either calling,
ExpandEnvironmentStringsForUser - "http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb762275(VS.85).aspx"
or
SHGetFolderPath - "http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb762181(VS.85).aspx"

I am trying to build a application consists of four dialogs(Dialog A, dialog B, Dialog C and Dialog D).
In dialog A is you press next button it will go to dialog B, at dialog B if you press cancel button it will go back to dialog A. If next button of dialog B is clicked then it will proceed to dialog C and so on.
For the last dialog, Dialog D, if the Finish button is clicked, it will go back to dialog A.
How can I link all the dialogs to work in the sequence specified.
Should I add dialog B,C,D as custom dialog to dialog A?
In dialog A I wrote the code shown below.where is member variable of CtryDlg which declared as CBDlg type.
/*tryDlg.cpp*/
#include "BDlg.h"
void CtryDlg::OnNext()
{
int nRet = m_dBDlg.modal();
}
In dialog B,
void CBDlg::OnCancelB()
{
int nRet = 5;
EndDialog(nRet);
return;
}
But I keep getting Debug Assertion Failed error when the next button of Dialog A is clicked.
Can someone give me so suggestions?
Thanks.

If you can use Maximilien's suggestion, override CPropertyPage::OnWizardFinish() and return FALSE to keep the sheet open. Then call the sheet's SetActivePage() method.

Run it in an External Function:
{
label1:
DlgA dlga;
if(dlga.DoModal()==IDCANCEL)return;
label2:
DlgB dlgb;
if(dlgb.DoModal()==IDCANCEL)goto label1;
label3:
DlgC dlgc;
if(dlgc.DoModal()==IDCANCEL)goto label2;
etc..
}

I need to find out what version of windows is running - Vista/Win7/XP and then get a list of processes. So far, for the list of processes I've got this:
bool isRunning(std::string pName)
{
unsigned long aProcesses[1024], cbNeeded, cProcesses;
if(!EnumProcesses(aProcesses, sizeof(aProcesses), &cbNeeded))
return false;
cProcesses = cbNeeded / sizeof(unsigned long);
for(unsigned int i = 0; i < cProcesses; i++)
{
if(aProcesses[i] == 0)
continue;
HANDLE hProcess = OpenProcess(PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION | PROCESS_VM_READ, 0, aProcesses[i]);
char buffer[50];
GetModuleBaseName(hProcess, 0, buffer, 50);
CloseHandle(hProcess);
if(pName == std::string(buffer))
return true;
}
return false;
}
This is supposed to get a list of processes, then return true if process X is running. But in Windows 7 it never returns true. Developing cross platform code for windows machines is getting as bad as Linux now. I'm fairly new to windows coding and I'm finding it nightmarish.
Thanks in advance.

Have you set a breakpoint on this statement to see the value of pName and buffer? Maybe it's an upper/lower case issue.

I made a test, on Windows 7 of your code. For some processes the OpenProcess call fails, reporting 5 ('Access denied') as GetLastError return value. For the remaining processes, it works fine (e.g. I can detect the notepad.exe process running).
BTW: while the documentation states that OpenProcess and GetModuleBaseName are provided by Kernel32.lib on Windows 7, I had to link instead with Psapi.lib in order to obtain the executable).
BTW2: I'm the administrator of the machine.

I want to draw a graph of x and y axes from the middle of the window as origin can
any body help me?

What is your doubt about?
You've to handle the WM_PAINT message (or implement the OnPaint message handler , if you're using MFC) in order to draw in your window client area, see, for instance: "Using the WM_PAINT Message".

let me use any CDC, I want to plot on x axis values in time for particular range say
a 10 sec duration and on y axis i want the magnitude which is read from a file.
thanks
