Standard C++ has no answer to this question. Standard C++ has no method of
detecting how many applications are running or sending emails. You are
confusing the facilities that your operating system provides with the
facilities that a language provides. Providing your language of choice gives
you good access to the underlying operating system you can do whatever the
operating system can do.

In short you need to ask this on a Windows programming group, not a C++
language group. Try news:comp.os.ms-windows.program mer.win32 for instance.

Hi guys, I have put together a flexible client-side user agent detector (written in js). I thought that some of you may find it useful. Code is here: http://fotios.cc/software/ua_detect.htm The detector requires javascript 1.0 to work. This translates to netscape 2.0 and IE 3.0 (although maybe IE 2.0 also works with it)

Hi, We have a database application that runs in a popup Internet Explorer application window. The reason for this is to isolate the casual user from the address bar and the typical IE navigation buttons. The application has a browser test page that displays an error message when a popup blocker is found and opens a popup page stating the test was successfull if there is no popup blocker.

Hi, We are creating event-driven multi-threaded applications on a daily basis. To help us solving deadlocks, we implemented a CriticalSection class that does dead-lock detection: an attempt to Enter() the critical section that would cause a deadlock logs the complete deadlock loop (thread / Critical section) and raises an exception. It has helped us a lot in the past. However, to prevent further deadlocks, and to get a higher...

Hi, We have .NET 1.1 WinForms apps accessing webservices through proxy servers in various companies using different proxy server setups. Our WinForms app is currently configurable to either use the default settings from IE, or to allow an explicit proxy server uri to be specified - using this information we set the .Proxy on the webservice proxy object to a WebProxy object that we create using 'new...

In a recent thread in this group, I said that in some cases object detection and feature tests weren't sufficient in the development of cross-browser applications, and that there were situations where you could improve the application by detecting the browser vendor/version. Some of the posters here disagreed. Since then, I've had to deal with a few of these cases; some of them could be rewritten to use object detection, and some couldn't....

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...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
