read, write, execute 1

[joeGrammar]

Hey guys,

I'm curious if there is a way in MSVC++ to determine if a file is read-only write-only or executable? Any help would be great. Thanks

To determine if it is an executable file use the following ShellApi function
(#include ShellApi.h and use Shell32.lib)


SHGetFileInfo and pass it a SHGFI_EXETYPE flag.
If the return value is 0, then the file is not executable. else it will have a specufic return value for the EXE type(header) Windows PE, Dos Executabile etc.

For more info check the MSDN,

Hope this helps s-)
