Posting Files to the Web

The WebPost API allows applications to easily post Web pages (files) to any Internet Web site. The WebPost functions can be used to connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP), determine the protocol needed to copy the files, and much more. These functions can display wizards to guide the users throughout the process.

This API is easy to implement and powerful.

In this code sample I just called "wpPost" function and pass the Window handle to tell the wizard which window it should return the focus after it completes its job. Then I pass NULL as value to all the other parameters in this function except the last parameter which is the FLAGS. We can give any of the four given flags

or just give 0 as the value. In this sample code I just gave 0 as the value to this parameter. Here I stop my blah blah and lets look at the code.

LONG CPostView::Post( )
{
	LONG lRet; //return value

	lRet = WpPost( GetSafeHwnd(),	// Handle to the Window
		NULL, 			// Number of files to be posted, can be null
		NULL, 			// Files List, can be null
		NULL, 			// Site Name Count, can be null
		NULL, 			// Site Name, can be null
		NULL, 			// URL Count, can be null
		NULL, 			// URL Name, can be null
		0 
	); // Flags

	return lRet;
}
