If I was pointing my app to a particular directory, I would just use:
"C:\Whateve r\"
But - If I want my app to use one of the Windows default directories
(Desktop, MyDocuments), since they can be different, depending on which
operating system, so how can I define this in code (like - Desktop)?

Using event variables (i.e. %Systemroot% for C:\Windows or \Winnt in
2000) would work well also.

Hi,
From what I read from the PHP manual, chmod on a Windows platform
should have no effect, and that seems totally normal (unless someone on
sourceforge has a windows port of that!).
I create a directory on my Windows box, and set chmod 777 on it (that
should be full access for everyone if my memory serves me correctly),
but when I want to rmdir that directory, I get a permission denied
message (I can delete contents from that...

I'm a newbie in Visual C++ .NET (have programmed in Borland C++

I created an (unmanaged) DLL project with a sample function, and

I'm having trouble with PHP & PostgreSQL/OpenLDAP/Apache on Windows.
I've set this up countless times on BSD (piece of cake) but I'm trying

Hi All!
I have a ASP.NET 2.0 site that works on the Windows 2000 Server. However,
when I tried to view this site on my local Windows XP machine, I get "Server
Unavailable". If I switch the Windows XP IIS back to ASP.NET 1.1 then I get
the Configuration Error (which is understandable because I'm trying to run
an ASP.NET 2 site with 1.1 framework).
I can however view other ASP.NET 1.1 sites on my local Windows XP machine.

I'm trying to create a windows explorer like app and the problem I'm having
is getting the proper icon for the folders and items.
In windows explorer there are many different icons and most seem to be in

that are installed by applications.
For example, "My Music" In My Documents has an icon that is different from
the normal folders. I have installed an application...

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:

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,...
