I agree; but what is actually happening from the VPN's point of view? I'm not sure of what's being run from where; or if the "host" has changed access rules.

How do I get a list of all the libraries, include files, etc. that make up the build of a C program in Visual Studio 2022 or earlier? i.e. the components need to compile and link a C program for execution.

Wouldn't the vs project file tell you that? (Unload it, then "Edit project file")

Unload what? edit what? Not options in VS I can find.
Visual Studio is not my IDE of choice. I use CodeBlocks with C. It's much more traditional and straight forward. VS is a nightmare made by too many cooks. Trying to satisfy with too many options. They have taken their eye off the ball. For example, there is not one single command to run a program other than the less than obvious F5. Instead it's select debug, select start debugging. Using VS is trying to solve a problem of writing code with a extra problem of wrestling with VS to write code. Guess I am getting too old. Thanx for the advice. I asked for it.

You right-click the Project in Solution Explorer and click "Unload Project". That will allow you to open the .proj file in Visual Studio and take a look inside.
Funny how I don't have a problem with "wrestling with Visual Studio" when I write code. To each their own I guess.

You mean the vxc.proj file? VS has too many working file types. there is
vxc.proj
.vcproj.user
.ncb
.snl
why not just program_name.main

Because all these files have specific roles to play, and rather than one enormous text file which would be a nightmare to mange, each one can be individually managed easily. And yes, I agree it is difficult to understand when you first start, but like all things in life, you need to learn and practice. If you have a system that you prefer to work with that is fine, we all have our own favourites.

Hi,
I want to point the double-click handler for .dll files to my program instead of the default handler. There arise some questions:
1. can it do any harm? dll’s being system files.
2. How do I keep the option of calling the default handler from my program?
3. I tried the Microsoft docs but the documentation is very long and confused. I’ll be grateful for a pointer to a concise documentation of registry file associations, maybe some examples.
Many thanks.

I have Visual Studio on two computers. One is at work, so my Microsoft account there is different from my Microsoft account on my computer at home.
So far, I take my code back and forth by copying the folder for the solution I'm working on to a thumb drive and taking it with me. That's basically SneakerNet. I figured, with "the cloud" everywhere, there's some way I can set things up so both computers see the same code.
I tried with GitHub, but I don't want to get into forks and pulls and what not. I'm not two different people with one suggesting changes to the other and the other approving the changes or not. I just want to access the same code from two different Visual Studio installations with a minimum of fuss. Any ideas? Thanks!

I would think OneDrive or DropBox, etc. with an "shared" folder is minimal. You still need to upload / download (the project) though.
To me eliminating the thumb drive step is the main point.

Well, I guess up/downloading the project isn't a deal-breaker. Much better than carrying the USB around. Thanks!

You also have the issue of taking the code home with you. The code you write at work is the property of the place you work at. The real questions are "is your employer OK with you taking the code home?" and "are there legal issues you need to deal with by exposing the code outside of the work environment?"

Thanks! I understand those concerns and, fortunately, it's nothing like that. I've always coded as a hobby and to make shorter work of my work at work. After many years in IT user support, I aged out and am now a legal secretary at a small law firm. The pay's just as good and I'm never on call! 
I'm working on a document generation system based on Word template files. It would have no commercial value because case management software these days comes with that feature. It's just that our firm is too small for a full-blown case management system. It's like writing a basic word processor for your uncle who runs a business but can't afford MS Office.

Then keep the code at work; you can Remote Desktop to your dev PC if you want to work on it from home.
Anything you write during work hours is owned by the company.

For (small, or any) business document management, I would recommend SharePoint Online. It's like $5.00 per month per user; quit any time. You'll never match what it provides out of the box.

So, nearly posted a bug; but I understand I upvoted you already and can't do that twice!

Listen to Dave - it is important.
If you can set up a shared drive between work and home (google, one drive, dropbox etc) then you can set the project folder to that drive within VS.

Hello folks!
In several Winsock programs, I see that a loop with
n = select(max_sock, &read_fd, &write_fd, &except_fd, &timeval);
operation on a non-blocking socket takes approx. 2 seconds to determine there is no
listener for that socket. Even for a localhost:55117 operation.
I have no listening program on port 55117. And I'd expect this to be faster.
Even with curl that's bundled with Windows, I see this:
c:\> curl -4 localhost:55117
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 55117 after 2055 ms: Connection refused
What / where is this 2 sec. set?

What do you have set for your timeval?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well, I do not care if select() takes 1 milli-sec to complete.
What I'm asking is why it in total takes 2 seconds (2000 select-loops) to conclude the port is closed (no listener).
-- Gisle V.
