I'm looking For Sample Code For Daylight Savings
Adjustment using EWF - Detect, Commit and Reboot. Doug H -
I've looked everywhere for your old post that has sample
code but couldnt find it. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Tim

const TCHAR* const CAE2_TIME_HIVE_KEY_NAME = _T("CAE2_TIME_HIVE");
const TCHAR* const TZI_KEY = _T("TZI (0=none,1=Std,2=Daylight)");

CAE2_TIME_HIVE is the name of a registry hive that I use to store the TZI
key value. This registry hive is stored on a partition not protected by
EWF. In my master ghost image, TZI is preset to 99 which is the
uninitialized state. When my product is first built, TZI becomes 0, 1, or 2
depending on the current date and time zone.

Cool. So Doug, I have an .ini file that stores persistent
information on a non-protected partition. I could store
CAE2_TIME_HIVE and TZI_KEY in this file and I would not
need to commit anything or reboot. Am I on the right
page?

Thanks again,
Tim

const TCHAR* const CAE2_TIME_HIVE_KEY_NAME = _T ("CAE2_TIME_HIVE");
const TCHAR* const TZI_KEY = _T("TZI (0=none,1=Std,2=Daylight)");

CAE2_TIME_HIVE is the name of a registry hive that I use to store the TZI
key value. This registry hive is stored on a partition not protected by
EWF. In my master ghost image, TZI is preset to 99 which is the
uninitialized state. When my product is first built, TZI becomes 0, 1, or 2
depending on the current date and time zone.

hives to another non-protected partition other than where
the OS exists?

Sure, you could use an ini file or create your own registry hive. To create
your own registry hive, which is not part of the default windows registry,
you can create a registry key(s) then export as a registry hive (I think...
its been awhile since I've done this). This is now your registry hive that
you can load, read, close via the Windows API functions RegLoadKey(),
RegOpenKeyEx(), RegCloseKey(). To manually load a registry hive, play with
"Load Hive" in regedit.

With EWF you will still need to commit and reboot atleast if your boot
partition is protected by EWF. The current date/time/time zone is stored in
the registry on the boot partition. My application simply uses the return
value of the GetTimeZoneInformation() API to detect that the current time
zone has changed. I let Windows do this since Windows already knows how to
do it. I just detect this change by comparing what GetTimeZoneInformation()
API returns with what is stored in my registry hive. WHen they are
different, the system just went into or out of daylight saving so I shell a
bat file to commit and reboot. Use the EWF dll API for this. I would of
instead of a bat file but the EWF dll QFE came out too late for me to
deploy.

Ti Tim,

There are powerful functions documented and undocumented functions for manipulating registry (mostly from drivers). So using driver
you could accomplish this, without driver there is only small possibility if you examine native API functions that there might be
functions that would allow you to do that.

Slobodan

CAE2_TIME_HIVE is the name of a registry hive that I use to store the TZI
key value. This registry hive is stored on a partition not protected by
EWF. In my master ghost image, TZI is preset to 99 which is the
uninitialized state. When my product is first built, TZI becomes 0, 1, or 2
depending on the current date and time zone.

Doug,

What are the keys: CAE2_TIME_HIVE_KEY_NAME and TZI_KEY?

Sure, you could use an ini file or create your own registry hive. To create
your own registry hive, which is not part of the default windows registry,
you can create a registry key(s) then export as a registry hive (I think...
its been awhile since I've done this). This is now your registry hive that
you can load, read, close via the Windows API functions RegLoadKey(),
RegOpenKeyEx(), RegCloseKey(). To manually load a registry hive, play with
"Load Hive" in regedit.

With EWF you will still need to commit and reboot atleast if your boot
partition is protected by EWF. The current
Click to expand...
date/time/time zone is stored in
the registry on the boot partition. My application simply uses the return
value of the GetTimeZoneInformation() API to detect that the current time
zone has changed. I let Windows do this since Windows already knows how to
do it. I just detect this change by comparing what GetTimeZoneInformation()
API returns with what is stored in my registry hive. WHen they are
different, the system just went into or out of daylight saving so I shell a
bat file to commit and reboot. Use the EWF dll API for this. I would of
instead of a bat file but the EWF dll QFE came out too late for me to
deploy.

HTH... Doug

Doug, one more thing. You say you store it in a non-
protected hive in the registry. Can we separate registry
hives to another non-protected partition other than where
the OS exists?

There are powerful functions documented and undocumented

you could accomplish this, without driver there is only
