Adding a Schedule Using C++

The following is a C++ code fragment that adds a new schedule called "Extended Work Hours," which includes all hours on all days. This code was written as a Windows Console Application. To use this code:

1. In Visual C++, create a new Win32 Console Application.
2. Select the default empty project.
3. Create a new C++ source file in the workspace.
4. Paste the following code into the C++ source file, and build the project.

   //Import the Forefront TMG Msfpccom.dll file so that Forefront TMG COM objects can be used.
   //Use the path to your Forefront TMG installation directory, or search for Msfpccom.idl.
   #import "c:\Program Files\Microsoft ISA Server\msfpccom.dll"
   #include <iostream.h>
   int main ()
   {
   	try 
   	{ 
   		// Define variables.
   		HRESULT hr;
   		//Initialize the COM library on the current thread.
   		hr = CoInitialize( NULL ); 
   		{
   			// Define variables.
   			FPCLib::IFPCPtr sipRoot;
   			FPCLib::IFPCSchedulesPtr sipMyScheduleCol;
   			FPCLib::IFPCSchedulePtr sipMySchedule;
   			// Create the Forefront TMG root object.
   			hr = sipRoot.CreateInstance("FPC.Root");
   			//Retrieve the schedules collection.
   			sipMyScheduleCol = sipRoot->GetContainingArray()->RuleElements->Schedules;
   			//Add the new schedule.
   			sipMySchedule = sipMyScheduleCol->Add("Extended Work Hours");
   			//Set the schedule.
   			sipMySchedule->Set(FPCLib::fpcALL_WEEK, FPCLib::fpcALL_DAY);
   			//Save your changes.
   			sipMyScheduleCol->Save();
   	}
   }
   	catch (_com_error& e) 
   	{
   		cout << 
   			"Error. HRESULT message is: \"" <<
   			e.ErrorMessage() <<
   			"\" (" << 
   			e.Error() << 
   			")" << 
   			endl; 
   		if (e.ErrorInfo()) 
   		{ 
   			cout << (char *)e.Description() << endl; 
   	} 
   } 
   		CoUninitialize();
   		return 0;
   }
   

5. Run the application.
