Hi all i was wondering if any one could help me i have a program i made using wininet in c c++ and my program is not seeing if there is a connections before completing with the execution ive tried to get it sorted but cant seam to figure it out i was guna use a loop and just make the program start over and over again till it finds a connection here is what ive got so far any help would be much apriciated.
Here is what ive got so far im verry new to c c++ but im trying to learn some stuff the program uploads to our ftp server a jpg file of screen shot from punk buster.I had to add it to the reg just incase we need to reboot our game server.This is what i have so far.

PHP Code:

#include <stdio.h>

#include <wininet.h>



#define server "test"

#define user "test"

#define pass "test"





int Upload(char *localFile, char *remoteFile){

HINTERNET iSession;

HINTERNET iConnect;

    

iSession = InternetOpen("Explorer" , INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_DIRECT, NULL, NULL, 0);

iConnect = InternetConnect ( iSession, server, INTERNET_DEFAULT_FTP_PORT, user, pass, INTERNET_SERVICE_FTP, 0, 0);

    

if(TRUE==FtpPutFile( iConnect, localFile, remoteFile, FTP_TRANSFER_TYPE_BINARY, 0))



    printf("Success");//I need this to just carry on exe



    else printf("Error!");//Im trying to get this to loop till conection is found

    

    

InternetCloseHandle(iConnect);

InternetCloseHandle(iSession);



return 0;

}



int main(void)

{   

    

Upload("C:\\1.jpg","1.jpg");



char system[MAX_PATH];

char pathtofile[MAX_PATH];

HMODULE GetModH = GetModuleHandle(NULL);



GetModuleFileName(GetModH,pathtofile,sizeof(pathtofile));

GetSystemDirectory(system,sizeof(system));



strcat(system,"\\test.exe");



CopyFile(pathtofile,system,false);





HKEY hKey;



RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run",0,KEY_SET_VALUE,&hKey );



RegSetValueEx(hKey, "Writing to the Registry Example",0,REG_SZ,(const unsigned char*)system,sizeof(system));



RegCloseKey(hKey); 



 return 0;

}

You want something like

while (not_connected)
{
    try
    {
    }
    catch (...)
    {
    }
}

Seems like if it had a problem connecting, you should a least wait a short while (sleep) before trying to connect again, to give transient network problems a chance to clear up.

Yeh m8 its like my router takes a while before it actualy connects to the net maybe like 60 seconds after start up maybe i can halt the execution of my program for 2 minute at the start of the program any one know haw i looked into sys pause but was told not to use it by some other people im just looking for some to slow my prgram down..
