shortcut

I am writing an installer (launcher) in Java and require the ability to be able to create a shortcut on the users desktop during the process. I am interested in any ideas as the best way to do this. My one option I have considered is using a VB Script on windows and using the native 'shortcut.exe' to do it for me, however a third party file utility would be preferred. /** * Create an Internet shortcut * @param name name of the shortcut * @param where location of the shortcut * @param target URL * @param icon URL (ex. http://www.server.com/favicon.ico) * @throws IOException */ public static

I have an application that gets started via a shortcut. This application than starts a Java GUI application with CreateProcess(). When the Java application gets pinned to the taskbar the javaw.exe gets pinned to the taskbar instead of the "expected" shortcut. Only the native executable which launches Java can be modified - the shortcut has to stay. What has to be done so that the shortcut gets pinned? Thanks, Stefan Use something like winrun4j or create a .bat instead of using a shortcut. There is a Java library providing the new Windows 7 features for Java. It's called J7Goodies by Strix Code

I need to remap some of keys like Left Alt but i just disable it so code for disable Left Alt look like this: LRESULT CALLBACK LowLevelKeyboardProc(int nCode, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { if (nCode == HC_ACTION) { KBDLLHOOKSTRUCT* p = (KBDLLHOOKSTRUCT*) lParam; if (p->vkCode == VK_LMENU) return 1; } return CallNextHookEx(hHook, nCode, wParam, lParam); } So I try to remap Left Alt to Left Ctrl and use function like keybd_event and SendMessageA but didn't get nothing. LRESULT CALLBACK LowLevelKeyboardProc(int nCode, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { if (nCode == HC_ACTION) { KBDLLHOOKSTRUCT* p

I already have the following: var myContextMenu = new System.Windows.Controls.ContextMenu(); var exitItem = new MenuItem(); exitItem.Header = "E_xit"; exitItem.Item.Click += new RoutedEventHandler(new System.EventHandler(ExitProgram)); myContextMenu.Items.Add(exitItem); This causes my context menu to display the Exit menu item, with an underlined "x". However, pressing x does nothing. Clicking the menu item works fine. How can I associate an event with the x key? Please note that this has to be done programmatically in my context. I cannot compose this solution in the XAML in front. The usual

I'm using Windows 7 (x64) and Delphi 2010. I'm writing a component that will emulate the start menu. However, I've run into the following problems: If I attempt to open a shortcut (.lnk file) with ShellExecute , this will fail whenever %ProgramFiles% is part of the target path of the shortcut (it will then look at the C:\Program Files (x86) folder instead of C:\Program Files ); ShGetFileInfo fails to extract the correct index of the icon in the system image list if %ProgramFiles% is part of the path to the icon file (same problem as above). Is there any workaround to the above issues or do I

How one could override files in nested portal_skins folder? The default behavior seems to be that you need to copy whole folder structures if you want to override a single file. This is a maintenance nightmare. E.g. how to override file: Producs.TinyMCE/skins/tinymce/plugins/table/js/table.js ... without needing to create a duplicate for the whole Products.TinyMCE skins codebase? Use z3c.jbot , and put a file in your jbot template directory called Products.TinyMCE.skins.tinymce.plugins.table.js.table.js You cannot override parts of a nested skins folder structure. If you want to customize
