(OS Windows)how do i detect when a file has been changed ? do i need to monitor this file and check the last modified date&time? (how do i do this?) furthermore how do i detect a certain application launch?
View 3 RepliesI have an application which is used for calibration for electrical components. Here I want to set a rootpath for this application. I did some research and I found out that I can get the rootpath of the application (that is where the exe is stored) But what I am really looking for is once I start the application the root path should be what I assign. For instance currently the root path is "C:UsersPublicDocumentsABC.ToolsProjects" but I would like the root path to be "E:New ABC" Is this possible? I wrote some code where I call the exe of the application and it opens the file in a folder that I specify :
private void NewJournal_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string filePath = @"E:New ABCabc.vnalog"
if (!File.Exists(filePath))
{
return;
}
string SelectedFile = @"/select, " + filePath;
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"E:New ABCabc.vnalog", SelectedFile);
}
Now this code open the .vnalog file in the application. And this works great..!!! How can I now change the path within the application?
Is it possible to create a programme which would detect and change word endings? I would like to write a simple verb conjugator, i.e.:
If you enter a word ending with AAA then I would like the programme to show, say, six modified words:
Word with the replaced ending, for example QWERTYAAA changes into QWERTYBBBQWERTYAAA changes into QWERTYCCCQWERTYAAA changes into QWERTYDDD etc.
Is it possible to do it? If so, how?
I am using Windows 7 32bit OS and want to detect the CPU power button press event in my console application developing in C language.
I configured the power button setting to "Do Nothing" which is in "Choose what the power button does" options in Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Power Options. So now i want to detect this power button press event and do some processing in my application then i will initate shut down from application itself. Looking for windows API details which will detect the power button press event.
I have a text file name fruit.txt that contains the following information of fruit id, fruitName and fruitQuantity.
Code:
1:pear:30
2:apple:20
3:banana:24
4:orange:15
5:watermelon:35
If let's say I key in 2, it will search for the id=2 and delete the whole line and the id of banana which is orignially 3, will become 2 and orange which is orignally 4 will become 3 etc.
I researched on how it can be done and most suggested to put inside a vector and fout the line.
I know how to put the values in the vector but how should I go about searching for the id and if the id is found it will delete that line inside the file.
Code:
ofstream fout;
ifstream readFile("fruit.txt");
while (getline(readFile, line)) {

I'm parsing a text file, and I'd like to detect when a certain Compilation Condition - i.e. #ifdef - begins. The challenge is, that the condition can take any of the following patterns:
#ifdef (FLAG)
#if defined (FLAG)
#if (defined (FLAG))
(And perhaps I missed more)
I'd of course need to treat them all the same, as they are indeed the same. How would you know to treat them all the same?
My coin/money change code works when there can be an exact change each time, i.e. when the 1 cent option is available. However, when the change options are only $10, $5, $1, 25 cents and 10 cents, it does not give me what I want for instance, I wanted to get change for $237.80, I was expecting to get:
23 10's, one 5, two 1's and 8 dimes. However, the code below is giving me 23 10's, one 5, two 1's and 3 quarters (there is no option left for the 5 remaining cents).how to fix it?
Code:
#include<iostream>
#include<algorithm>
#include<vector>
using namespace std;
void change(double cents, int a[]);
int main() {
double Dollars;
double cents;

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to create an application that starts an application and passes input to that application. I know how to start a process using the classes in System.Diagnostics, but I don't know how to pass data to the process.
For example, and this is just an example, I would like to be able to automatically start an application that requires a username and password and automatically enter the username and password. Of course, that might open the door to security vulnerabilities, but that's not the point of the exercise.
How to implement the functionality I described? Is there a general way to go about doing this or does it depend entirely on the idiosyncrasies of the application in question?
I have installed VS 2010 and VS 2012. VS 2012 uses SqlServer CE 3.5 and VS 2012 uses SqlServer CE 4.0.The problem is that when a project uses a 3.5 file it tries to open it with 4.0 even if the app.config says to use the 3.5 provider. The version of the assembly is pulled right out of the GAC. I uninstalled 4.0 and the reference auto updated its version to 3.5.1. However after installing 4.0 again it changes to 4.0. The error I am getting is that 4.0 cannot open a 3.5 file....they changed the file format from 3.5 to 4.0 and they are not compatible.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor particular assignment, I am asked to evaluate data from an inputfile, let it be named "infile.dat". Next, it is required to output to this same file, but with the name of this file altered to reflect the changes of data. For example, if I want to change the original file name to "changed_infile.dat.altered" by adding the "changed_" prefix and ".altered" suffix, how could this be done?
From my understanding, there are no functions in <fstream> that could change the file name. However, there is a rename function in <stdio>, but it's not exactly what I am looking for because I want to append a prefix and suffix to this existing inputfile name. Although I could apply a brute force method by simply doing rename("infile.dat", "changed_infile.dat.altered"), I want to have my program to work with various input files of different names.
im trying to make a tool that can change the version of the file (.exe)
UpdateResource(hResource, RT_VERSION, MAKEINTRESOURCE(1), MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_DEFAULT), (LPVOID) lpBytes, dwSize);
i know how to update the rcdata of the resource
my problem is i dont know what to insert to it using (LPVOID) lpBytes is it a .txt ? .rc ? is it a binary ? etc.
I just can't seem to find how to create a header file and where I can change the value of the variables. It sounds simple.

You are requested to create an inventory control application for a drink stall (give a name to the stall). The application is used to show the list of drinks the stall sells, how many of each item on‐hand and the cost of each item. The records are to be saved and retrieved to/from a binary file called “drinks.txt”. For each drink in the stall, your program is to keep the information as a Record Structure called DrinkRecord. The structure should at least consist of the following:
(1) Item Number
(2) Item Name
(3) Quantity
(4) Unit Price
Your application should have the following features:
(a) Display a drink information
(b) Add a new drink information
(c) Update a new drink information
(d) Delete a drink information
(e) Display all drink information
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
#include <vector>
#include <iterator>
#include <algorithm>

Everything works fine with minor issues, but I'm having trouble with the editing function. I need to be able to search for a specific drink then be able to edit its contents and print the new contents to the file. I have not created a structure yet. I will do that as soon as possible.
Currently I'm working on a application which reads the input from the server and write to a file. Message stored in server : idle_message="维杰PC时钟" key_prompt="在按键"
Server will send a xml reply with encode type as "UTF-8". In my code I'm store in a char array. [ char * ch = "idle_message="缁存澃PC鏃堕挓" key_prompt="鍦ㄦ寜閿" msg came from server and copied from vs2005 watch point] After this I'm writing the same to a file in my desk using the API WriteFile. When i open the file in Editplus below is the content.
idle_message="维杰PC时钟" key_prompt="在按键" Again I'm trying to read the file and storing into the char array. Below is the content viewed by the watchpoint in VS2005.
idle_message="缁存澃PC鏃堕挓" key_prompt="鍦ㄦ寜閿? I'm trying to find the starting and ending chinese char and I'm converting that char to wchar_t using the API mcstowcs() for display, its coming as completely junk chars.
I can able to every place the chinese char are different. how to overcome this problem.
I need to be able to actually read my encrypted file..
I have the decryption code and works perfectly when running it through console app c++.

I'm working on a cross-platform threading project, the aim is to start 1 worker-thread that has a queue of worker-items which are serviced by the thread.
The threading framework works fine, both under Windows and LINUX, albeit as designed under Windows, and in a modified form under LINUX.
I have this CSnmpTrapd class which is designed as a worker-item for the worker-thread, it listens for incoming SNMP traps and decodes the packets, this is implemented in csnmptrapd.cpp and csnmptrapd.hpp.
1) When I add this piece of code to my makefile and re-compile the app successful... the app will start (or not?) but generates no console or file logging as is expected, it will not even show printf() output which was added as first statement in main(). My app handles CTRL-C to terminate and this works !?!? But I'm actually not sure my app works at that point.
2) When I compile the app without csnmptrapd.cpp and start it, it will generate console and logging output and behave as expected.
3) When I add the CSnmpTrapd class implementation to an existing cpp file in the project, it will compile and run as expected... the worker-thread handles the CSnmpTrapd worker-item as it should, incoming SNMP traps are captured and decoded, logging generated
