  SetEntriesinAcl and SetSecurityDescriptorControl issue         


Author: ps8177
Date: Jan 11, 2008 17:17

I am sorry if I am posting this to the wrong group.

I am trying to set explicit access to a file and I need some
clarification.

I create a PACL using SetEntriesInAcl() with the EXPLICIT_ACCESS
structure array having 4 members. The call succeeds but in the
debugger I see that in the PACL structure created, the aceCount is 1.
Shouldn't it be 4?

Also immediately after the call I am calling
GetExplicitEntriesFromAcl() and am getting garbage. Should this not
give me back the EXPLICIT_ACCESS structure I just set?

You can also use asynchronous/overlapped IO and then wait for input, but you
can do other things in addition to wait.

The printer driver probably has a way to determine if input is available,
but you must refer to the documentation; we don't know what the
documentation for your printer driver says.

Hello, anyone wants to try my program.
It generates on every run 8 rows of six numbers.
So, you play almost all the numbers, (except one - never mind ;-)) )
It is difficult to play all the numbers only with the pen, difficult to find
what numbers you didn't play. So this program makes easy to do it.

I have more programs to upload in the future, stay tuned.

Good luck

Mapped drives do not exist in a service. If your service has the
appropriate permissions on the network drive you can access the drive using
the UNC naming convention: \\\

  Calling an executable that runs on the command line and fetching return values         


Author: Water Cooler v2
Date: Jan 11, 2008 05:26

I've done a lot of API stuff in my time, real hardcore but am a bit
out of touch now.

From within my VB.NET WinForms app, I want to call an external
executable. The said executable runs on a command line and takes two
params.

Calling the executable is no biggie. I could use the old VB 6 shell,
or the Win32 API ShellExecuteEx or CreateProcess to fork a new
process. The problem is getting the status of the process and its
return values of success of failure.

Can you please help?
