Visual C++ :: How To Tell If File Or Folder Could Be Placed Into Recycle Bin
May 18, 2014
Say, I have the "K: est del USB" folder.
Then I do the following:
Code:
SHFILEOPSTRUCT sfo = {0};
sfo.wFunc = FO_DELETE;
sfo.pFrom = L"K: est del USB";
sfo.fFlags = FOF_ALLOWUNDO |
[Code] ....
So when I run it, the SHFileOperation API shows this warning:
Are you sure you want to permanently delete this folder?
If the end-user clicks "No", SHFileOperation return 0x4c7, which I believe is ERROR_CANCELLED.
My question is, if I don't need any UI, how can I know that my file/folder will be permanently deleted vs. placed into the Recycle Bin?

there's a way to get a path to the recycle bin folder for a specific drive for the current user?
Say, on the input one provides "C:" and on the output you get "C:$Recycle.BinS-1-5-18"

I am maintaining a legacy VC++ 6 project.
When I use SHBrowseForFolder I can retrieve a PIDL of the selected folder and with this PIDL I can get the path with SHGetPathFromIDList.
Now, given a path to a folder, I want to retrieve its PIDL. How can I do it? I tried SHParseDisplayName() but seems that function is unsupported in VC++ 6.0

The following code is useful to allow a user to select a particular folder in the disk directory.
Code:
void OpenFolder() {
LPMALLOC pMalloc; //,pMalloc2;
CString strDirectory;
BROWSEINFO bi;
// Gets the Shell's default allocator
wchar_t pszBuffer[MAX_PATH];
[Code] ....
However, if one uses this code over and over, one quickly becomes tired of threading one's way all the way from root directory C:. There is undoubtedly some way to designate a starting directory. The most obvious candidate to set such a target is the:
Code:
bi.pidlRoot = NULL;
But attempting to set bi.pidlRoot to a CString (directory address) errors because 'no suiitable conversion from CString to LPCITEMIDLIST exists'
How can I set the code to open at a designated address in the directory tree?

I need a code for renaming multiple(bulk or all ) files in a folder.
I found one batch file script but it renaming with numbers only. But i want differntly.
[URL] .....
Example:
In a folder there are 100 images and all numbered with some digits or names.
assume that all images are belongs to "john" , so i want to rename all images with "john+ a random string".
here a random string means -> it has an array with 3000 english words, (you can predefine them by downloading from dictonary).
In the script the 3000 names are fixed, but the 1st name will be changed by my wish. that my be john, mary, sai, pavan etc...
Suggestion: you do not need to enter all 3000 words in array manually. some javscript codes are there to read input of each and evey line and them into an array.

I'm writing a small function that gets as parameter a file's path and a folder's path, and copies the given file to that folder.
Code:
int copy_file(const char* source, const char* folder) {
char copy[PATH_MAX];
strcpy(copy, folder);
strcat(copy, "/");
strcat(copy, source);
[Code] ....
Basically, this function purpose is to make a backup of source in folder every X minutes (depending on user's input).
The problem is the second call to open():
This call attempts to open the file for writing, and creates it if it is not already exist.
It also truncates it before writing to it - and that's my concern:
Let's say this is the second time this function runs, so copy is already exist. open() will then truncate it, and then one of the system calls in the while loop fails.
In this situation, I might be left with no backup file.
The problem also arises for when source is a read-only file:
If source is a read-only file, and copy is not already exist (meaning - it's the first backup attempt), then everything's fine, but, if source is a read-only file and copy is already exist, then I have to first remove copy altogather, and make a fresh copy of source.
Making a backup with new name for copy every time copy_file() runs, will solve this problem, and how can this be accomplished?
I should say that I'd really prefer that copy and source will have the same names when copy_file() returns...

My Services.cs looks like this:-
