DynData v1.01 A collection of MFC classes to encapsulate the Windows 9x performance counters (Obsolete)

Ever wanted to write some code to determine the amount of bytes sent or received by Dial-Up Networking, what is the current CPU Usage or how many threads are currently running on the system?. The classes provided allow you do query any of these parameters, or to query the availability of performance objects and their counters both on the local machine and any machine on the network. Please note that these classes are not designed to be used on NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista. If you would like to retrieve performance stats on these operating systems, please see the author's CPdh wrapper classes.

Features

• Simple and clean C++ interface based.
• The classes are fully Unicode compliant (even though HKEY_DYN_DATA is not available on NT <g>)
• Full documentation is provided in the form of a HTML file

The enclosed zip file contains the source code and a simple console based application which exercises the class.
