I have two prorams, one of which runs as a service, and the uses a shared
resource (actually a log file) which I want to protect with a named mutex.
The service starts at login, and when I run the non-service program it throws
an ApplicationExce ption (Access denied) when it tries to construct the mutex.
I can only assume that this is a security thing, maybe because the service is
running under the Local System user. (If I stop the service, run the program,
and then restart the service it's fine).
Is there any way round this other than by using PInvoke calls to create the
named mutex with security attributes and a null DACL?

invoice records for them in another table, but I have no idea where to
begin. Here's the relevant tables:

I need to find a way to share information between two classes, one is an

I hope this is just something stupid I'm missing and someone can easily point
out my error. I'm trying to do a few turorials on windows services, and the
couple I found so far just create an event log and write an entry on start
and stop. I build the projects and install them fine, but when I run the
service it starts and stops instantly. The service is not creating the
custom event log I wanted it to but instead adds an error message in...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...
