You reminded me one of my interviews (that did not go that well :) ). Yes this is how you need to do it.

int DisplayMessageBox()
{
int msgboxID = MessageBox(
NULL,
(LPCWSTR)L"Sample",
Cap,
MB_YESNOCANCEL
);

switch (msgboxID)

It is not a Vista problem. Vista uses same APIs to shutdown the system.
You certainly have required permissions and privileges if you can shutdown the system by Shutdown.exe

You just need to be...

Shutdown.exe uses InitiateSystemShutdownEx.

I have used this code on Vista and it works for me.

1) Your code lacks the required privilage. You would need Shutdown Privilage enabled for the process which initiates the shutdown.
2) On server OS not everyone has shutdown privilage, you need to...

how about trying this


#include <Windows.h>

BOOL MySystemShutdown()
{
HANDLE hToken;

This talks about everything. Please let us know if you have any question.

The WM_SHOWWINDOW message is sent to a window when the window is about to be hidden or shown.

I suspect the window you are trying to hide processes this message and prevents itself from hiding.

Does it happens with all the Windows or with any specefic Window ?
Are you trying to hide any window which you have created or any other applciaiton's Window ?

You can not initialize arrays the way you are trying. However, you have exposed a good problem. How to initialize a constant string inside a class?

Are you trying to write a balanced binary tree??
You should explore how AVL trees work.

I believe we are confused in Initialization and declaration.

int i ; // declaration
int i = 10 ; declaration + initialization

i= 15 ; // assignment

You cannot only do initialization...

Once you declare an array you just reserve some amount of memory. This memory contains garbage. if you try to print all values of the array just after delaring it you will see just garbage. See...

You can not do this.

void LoadFile (std::string filename, std::string key=filename)
{

}

default parameter should be known to the compiler while compilation.

This is a classic example of Encapsulation in C++.

If you don’t explicitly write an access modifier, by default it is...

Simplest is call main from every function you call in switch
