[Mingw-users] Strange CreateDirectory behavior

[Alan S. <ala...@ya...>]

Hi all,

 

Here is a strange one. Using Mingw & MSYS, I build a simple RSS download
agent.  It works FINE under XP (it creates the appropriate folders and can
be viewed using explorer).  But with Vista 64bit, the folders seems to be
created but I cannot view all of it with explorer (ie. I got about 6 folders
out of 12 folders it suppose to create) but the program seems to be able to
access all the folders which make debugging impossible.

 

I first thought it was security issue so I change the ownership, gave all
the rights to Users/Everyone to make modification etc etc. Nothing seems to
help. (BTW, the directory is under Program Files (32)/..)

 

Any recommendation is greatly appreciated!

 

Alan
