How can I get a response of LIST command executed with CFTPConnection::Command() . I can get the directory listing. But not free space size information. Windows IIS FTP server gives free space as response of LIST command: How to check free space in a FTP Server? It does not look like that the MFC CFTPConnection class has an API to access the response message of the command executed. Though as the class is just a wrapper around Win32 Wininet functions, you can use InternetGetLastResponseInfo function to retrieve the response right after calling CFTPConnection::Command . Retrieves the last error

I'm trying to implement manual self-signed SSL certificate validation to a WinINet client. I tried to approach it by calling InternetQueryOption with INTERNET_OPTION_SECURITY_CERTIFICATE or INTERNET_OPTION_SECURITY_CERTIFICATE_STRUCT parameters, but both return some internal interpretation of server's certificate, none allows accessing raw certificate public key or at least thumbprimnt. How am I supposed to validate certificate?... m_skipper Additionaly to previous answer. If you want to manualy check certificates with untrusted root(self signed for example), you need to 1) Set flags to ignore

I am trying to capture proxy setting ("Automatically Detect Settings"). My code works on XP and Vista. But it is NOT working on Windows 7 Please see the details of target platform Windows 7 Enterprise, IE 8.0.7600.16385, Wininet.dll 8.0.7600.16535 Please see the code snippet INTERNET_PER_CONN_OPTION_LIST List; INTERNET_PER_CONN_OPTION Option[1]; unsigned long nSize = sizeof(INTERNET_PER_CONN_OPTION_LIST); Option[0].dwOption = INTERNET_PER_CONN_FLAGS; List.dwSize = sizeof(INTERNET_PER_CONN_OPTION_LIST); List.pszConnection = NULL; List.dwOptionCount = 1; List.dwOptionError = 0; List.pOptions =

I've managed to download a "file" from the internet with the help of wininet library, but I can't seem to save a "webpage" i.e. something I can edit later on with a text editor or with ifstream . In this case, what are the tools I should resort to? Can wininet save a webpage to disk? Should I consider cURL (though I haven't managed to download regular files due to lack of documentation of cURL )? Do I need to learn what's called socket programming ? NB: I'm on Windows, using MinGW but can switch to MSVC if necessary, I'm looking for source code in the webpage, eventually I'm after the text in

This is an evolution of my previous question , which was about WinHttp. I hope this is the right way to do this... I'm trying to communicate in https with a server using WinInet (from the Win32 API). Here is a very minimalist code : HINTERNET ses = InternetOpen("test",INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_DIRECT,NULL,NULL,0) ; HINTERNET con = InternetOpenUrl( ses,"https://stackoverflow.com",NULL,0,0,0 ) ; DWORD read ; char str [3000] ; InternetReadFile( con,reinterpret_cast<void*>( str ),sizeof( str )-1,&read ) ; str[read] = 0 ; cout << &str[0] ; InternetCloseHandle( con ) ; InternetCloseHandle( ses ) ; As long

I'm trying to clear out the WinInet cache using Win32 API - by invalidating the cache entries, or deleting them (doesn't matter). I can't find any way to do this for the whole cache (other than iterating over each entry - example in C# , another in VB ) - is this even possible? I'm fairly certain doing the FindFirst/FindNextUrlCacheEntry() then DeleteUrlCacheEntry() is the only way to make sure it works across all versions of IE. Alternatively you can use FindFirst/ FindNextUrlCacheGroup() and DeleteUrlCacheGroup() with "CACHEGROUP_FLAG_FLUSHURL_ONDELETE" but you have to make sure you only
