Using the SysInfo class

  1. Just copy the Sysinfo.h file to your project
  2. Add #include “Sysinfo.h” to the header of your dialog class
  3. Create an object of Sysinfo and just call the member function: TNTGetInfo().

Example

The TNTGetInfo function returns a CString object containing all of the information
(with line break). And then you can save/copy or send them.

Sysinfo m_system;
CString m_content=m_system.TNTGetInfo();
