Re: Activating a View in a MDI Roman Nurik23-Jan-03 9:40 Roman Nurik 23-Jan-03 9:40  get the CView's associated frame (making sure it has one first) and then call ActivateFrame on the frame - Roman - Windows XP Device Driver Development. Lim Bio Liong22-Jan-03 18:44 Lim Bio Liong 22-Jan-03 18:44  Hello All, I have previously developed a device driver for Windows NT 4.0. That was in 1999. I've since moved on to other projects. 4 years on now, I want to port my original WinNT device driver to Windows XP. I'm wondering if thw Windows NT device driver source codes (written in C) can still be used in WinXP (usning WinXP DDK) ? Has anyone done such porting before ? Thanks, All, Bio. getting windows system directory joshfl22-Jan-03 18:25 joshfl 22-Jan-03 18:25  i am writing a windows app, so i know windows will always be installed , but i wont be gauranteed that its system path is c:\windows\system\ i need to programmatically find out the windows\system folder and drive on the o/s the app is running on so that i can put files into it via my code... is there an api call or easy way to pull that info from the sys??? thanks todo.... :: insert inpirational text here :: Re: getting windows system directory r i s h a b h s22-Jan-03 18:36 r i s h a b h s 22-Jan-03 18:36  hi, u can use GetWindowsDirectory(...)

That may well work for all the things you list. I think it's defined in comdef.h, or somesuch.

Re: CString parameters Christian Graus22-Jan-03 20:59 Christian Graus 22-Jan-03 20:59  rishabhs wrote: but is the method safe and effective? Gosh you're a worry wart !!! Yes, it's fine. The constructor builds a class, that class passes the required result to the function and on return the class destructor cleans up after itself. Windows is full of string conversion routines, but I find the _bstr_t method nice and easy.

When you know how recurrent these posts about strings are, that's a complete shame each person posting in the VC++ forum is not offered a poll before they really get to the posting form, and that would go like this : - question 1 : is your question about strings (translate that one to indian too) ? If answer is yes, throw the Dunn tutorials to his head. Otherwise, - question 2 : are you sure your question is not related to characters or the CString class ? (please note the irony ) - question 3 : in case your question has to do with a LPSTR topic or something like that, then please consider looking those articles : 1[^] and 2[^].

I've recently heard that Named Pipes are no longer supported in Windows XP or that it will be gradually phased out in the long run. I'm wondering if this is truly the case. I've referred to the MSDN documentation for Named Pipes and noted that it is supported in XP and there is no mention of it becoming obsolete. I personally do not think Named Pipes will become obsolete anytime in the future but has anyone vaguely heard of this possibility ? Thanks, All, Bio.

And yes it's event based. It doesn't write Xml though. (MSXML 4.0 is f***ing fast either, but the SDK has limitations, and it's of course full of proprietary interfaces and behaviours).
