 Posted: Sat Jul 12, 2008 2:46 am Post subject: [C++] having some problems with Registry |
 |
|
well i'm trying to add a value key to registry
so first of all i added a key to HKCU:
| Code: |
HKEY hKey;
DWORD dwDisp = 0;
LPDWORD lpdwDisp = &dwDisp;
RegCreateKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,L"Software\\Testkey",NULL,NULL,REG_OPTION_NON_VOLATILE,KEY_ALL_ACCESS,NULL,&hKey,lpdwDisp);
RegCloseKey(hKey);
|
so far all good
but when i'm trying to add a value to this key
| Code: |
RegSetKeyValue(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,L"Software\\Testkey",L"stringVal",REG_SZ,(LPCVOID)"c:\\program files",MAX_PATH);
|
suddenly when i run the EXE i get error message that says that the entry point for the procedure RegSetKeyValue couldn't be located in advapi32.dll

From http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724921.aspx
| Code: |
LONG WINAPI RegSetKeyValue(
__in HKEY hKey,
__in_opt LPCTSTR lpSubKey,
__in_opt LPCTSTR lpValueName,
__in DWORD dwType,
__in_opt LPCVOID lpData,
__in DWORD cbData
);
hKey [in]
A handle to an open registry key. The key must have been opened with the KEY_SET_VALUE access right. For more information, see Registry Key Security and Access Rights.
This handle is returned by the RegCreateKeyEx, RegCreateKeyTransacted, RegOpenKeyEx, or RegOpenKeyTransacted function. It can also be one of the following predefined keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
HKEY_USERS

RegSetValueEx's first parameter is the HKEY you defined above.
I made a function to open and then set a value to that entry. (This is the string version)
| Code: | BOOL CreateKey( LPTSTR lpKey, LPTSTR lpName, LPTSTR lpsText )
{
HKEY hKey;
if ( RegOpenKeyEx( HKEY_CURRENT_USER, lpKey, 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, &hKey ) == ERROR_SUCCESS )
{
if ( RegSetValueEx( hKey, lpName, 0, REG_SZ, (CONST BYTE*)lpsText, MAX_PATH ) == ERROR_SUCCESS )
{
RegCloseKey( hKey );
return TRUE;
}
}
RegCloseKey( hKey );
return FALSE;
} |
Just as an example, You can replace RegOpenKeyEx with RegCreateKeyEx.
