 Hi there,
I want to receive shell notifications regarding copying, moving, drag & drop
operation on specific folders and files. I will use predefined callback
functions in a app where i will collect notifications (Blocking)
Should I use shell extensions, filter driver (to file system driver) or
something else. This need to be done using C++ ,Win-Api only.
Pls provide me appropriate guideline to that.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi Ravi,
I have tested above classes. Though they provides notification but
i need to make Shell operation blocking i.e. say If someone is copying
some files to a folder(watched by my App), My app will be notified via callback but actual operation of copying should not be completed untill app done with processing notification.
Do U think we need to install some hook or need to put a filter driver.
Thanks.
Abhi....

Read about shell copy hook handlers.
It is a type of COM object that can block file copies, like when explorer pops up and asks "Do you want to delete the program file?" or "Do you want to delete the read-only file?" etc. The shell hook handler can block the file copy, move, or delete operation as long as it goes through the user interface.
If a separate process uses DeleteFile() API call, then your handler will not be notified.

Hi all,
I want to make a control such as a button that can be resized and moved around in a VB form while the VB application is running.
something similar to designing the form but only difference is that it should be at runtime.
for example:
I have an application with a toolbar with various components in it, I select a component from it, and add it to my container, I should be able to move the component and resize it. similar functionality that the VB IDE provides.
I want to know how to create such components, does the container have to support some special features or I can implement such functionality directly into my component..
1.if my component can provide such functionality then how do I go about it.
2.if the container should support it then how do the container and the object communicate.
Thanks and Regards

hi all
i've a loop in my program. since message loop must run for my program not to hang, i decided to implement it by using PostMessage. i did, but my program still hangs. i don't like to have more than one message loop in my program!
i wrote a test program. a button in a dialog posts a special custom message to the dialog. the message handler sets a static ctrl's text to an auto-incremental value and posts the same message again.
note that i don't use SendMessage, but it still stops responding. for example when i drag the dialog box's title, it doesn't move. it seems that it doesn't receive mouse events while it does receive the custom message and works.
what's the problem and how can i resolve it?
thanx

Even PostMessages are processed immediately as soon as the current message handler finishes, even before _PAINT and _TIMER messages (paint is delayed until the last posted message is gone)
(the main message loop is just a "get message, process message", so with a message posting itself, the application is completely busy)
The closest solution would be to replace the custom message with a SetTimer(0 ms)
Another option would be a worker thread, but you should do some derious reading on that topic before trying to get by with something you figured out.

Mike, I keep getting the feeling you've got some kind of macro thingy you run called SeeTheFAQ. It pops up a list of FAQ section titles, you pick one, and click Submit.

It's probably an undocumented feature of his CP searchbar

LOL 
I've actually thought of writing an Explorer bar with links like that.  What I do is, when I recognize a question that's in the FAQ, I open the FAQ (I have it bookmarked) then use some of the SearchBar keyboard shortcuts to make the links (most notably Ctrl+^ to make a clickety[^]).

I have been developing spidering applications following Pallman's book "Bots, Spiders and Intelligent Agents in Microsoft Visual C++" (Microsoft Press 1999) and have a persistent problem with messaging from tray icon once the onok event is triggered.
Ideally, once the robot has launched with onok, I'd like to be able to pause it or change its parameters by clicking on the status bar icon. Pallman's bots do this, but using the same code (but different Visual Studio version), mine don't. After I put the icon in the tray and before onok, clicking on the icon brings up the context menu but once onok is clicked, the tooltip message displays but there is no response to other mouse activity over the icon. The same problem with the minimized window in the task bar. If I click on task bar icon, it responds by highlighting but the main window is not repainted.
The project is developed in Visual Studio 2003 in C++ as a Dialog based MFC application (as Pallman instructs in his book) running under W2K. Some have suggested doing these as SDI or MDI projects but I'd like to defer that learning curve as the bots I have work fine but for this (significant) problem.
Suggestions?

It seems to me the code in your articls is about the same as mine. This is the code that doesn't work right.
in BotDlg.h
#define WM_TRAY_NOTIFY WM_USER + 0

ON_BN_CLICKED(IDOK, OnBnClickedOk)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

...
m_nTrayData.cbSize = sizeof(NOTIFYICONDATA);
m_nTrayData.hWnd = m_hWnd;
m_nTrayData.uID = 0;
m_nTrayData.hIcon = LoadIcon (AfxGetInstanceHandle(), MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_BREAK));
m_nTrayData.uCallbackMessage = WM_TRAY_NOTIFY;
strcpy (m_nTrayData.szTip, "Bot");
m_nTrayData.uFlags = NIF_ICON | NIF_MESSAGE | NIF_TIP;
m_bOnBreak = false;

Remember that you need to set your window to be the foreground window before you call TrackPopupMenu() (SetForegroundWindow()) and you need to post a dummy message immediately afterwards (PostMessage(WM_NULL))
Hope this helps,
Ryan

Use a sequence of:
1. GetCursorPos()
2. WindowFromPoint()
3. GetWindowText()

thank you very much...;P
that code is working perfect

Just few cents of ideas
1. Create a global mouse hook.
2. Keep track of mouse events to trigger your procedure.
3. Send double click message to the window where specific mouse trigger occured.
4. This will highlight a text, if there is.
5. Send message to capture the selected text to clipboard.
6. Let your main aplication get the text from the clipboard and process it.

You can not access hardare resource from your application. You should write device driver for this purpose.
I offer you to use DirectSound.
