Using C++.NET to find current User

1 New Member
Hi, I'm trying to use C++.NET to find which user is currently logged in. This is part of a bigger project for which I'll also need to retrieve visited URL's from the web browser as well...but one thing at a time I guess.

I'm trying to use the windowsIdentity function to get the name...but I can't get the syntax right

here's the little I've been able to figure out from the MSDN library...

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. // This is the main project file for VC++ application project 
  2. // generated using an Application Wizard.
  3.  
  4. #include "stdafx.h"
  5. #include <cstring>
  6. #include <iostream>
  7. #include <iomanip>
  8. #include <assert.h>
  9. #include <fstream>
  10. #include <math.h>
  11. #include <time.h>
  12. #include <stdlib.h>
  13. #include <conio.h>
  14. #include <stdio.h>
  15. using namespace std;
  16.  
  17. #using <mscorlib.dll>
  18.  
  19. using namespace System;
  20. //using namespace System.Security.Principal;
  21.  
  22. public:
  23. virtual property String^ Name {
  24.     String^ get ();
  25. }
  26.  
  27. int _tmain()
  28. {
  29.  
  30.     propertyDescription = String::Concat( propertyDescription, windowsIdentity->Name );
  31.  
  32.     return 0;
  33.  
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Does anyone know how to use VBA to relink tables between two MS Access databases? We have two databases, one with VBA code and the other with data tables. The tables are referenced by linked tables in the database where the code resides. If we move the database with the data tables to a new directory, the links are no longer valid. I tried to update the links by changing the Connect property and refreshing: Set td = db.TableDefs(0)...

If I PC Anywhere into the server on where the job is running, the job runs sucessfully, PDF files got generated, everything is good. If I scheduled the job to run at the time that I am not logged into the server, Access is not able to print to the printer. The error is pretty...

Hello there, I have a front end database that I have recently made very many changes to to allow off-line use. I keep copies of the databases on my hard drive and link to them rather than the live databases on the network. Is there a way, via code, when I get back in-house from being on the road to click a button, and select the backends I want to link to? I would want to delete all the current links and link to the "live"

Hi gang, This one looks like a bug :o( As you may or may not know, setting session management in web.config to use cookieless sessions causes the ASP.NET runtime to munge a session ID into the URL, in the format http://yourapplicationpath/(Session.SessionID)/... which saves numerous headaches when it comes to storing state across page requests and sessions.

Hello, I am in the midst of converting an Access back end to SQL Server Express. The front end program (converted to Access 2003) uses DAO throughout. In Access, when I use recordset.AddNew I can retrieve the autonum value for the new record. This doesn't occur with SQL Server, which of course causes an error (or at least in this code it does since there's an unhandled NULL value). Is there any way to retrieve this value when I add a...

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...
