Click here for a larger image.

Environment: VC6/VC7

This CSysInfo class makes it easy to get various system information, such as:

• OS version (for example, Windows 2000 Terminal Server or Windows XP Home Edition)
• CPU type
• Total amount of physical memory and memory usage
• IE version (very useful for XML-enabled applications)
• ADO version
• Does the current user have administrator rights?
• Network interface (NIC) list with their IP addresses
• and so on...

Usage

1. Include SysInfo.cpp, SysInfo.h, MibAccess.cpp, and MibAccess.h in your project.
2. Create s new CSysInfo class object (for example, m_si) and just invoke CSysInfo::Init().
3. You will be able to use the member function listed below.
