String is a typedef for std::wstring

FilesArray is a typedef for std::vector<CFile>. This collection class is used in the CJob::EnumFiles method.

JobsArray is a typedef for std::vector<CJob>. This collection class is used in the CManager::EnumJobs method.

FileRangeArray is a typedef for std::vector<BG_FILE_RANGE>. This collection class is used in the CFile2::GetFileRanges and CFile6::GetFilledFileRanges methods.

ByteArray is a typedef for std::vector<BYTE>. This collection class is used in the CJob2::GetReplyData and CJobHttpOptions::GetClientCertificate methods.

Features

• Provides a simple C++ Header only module to easily encapsulate the BITS APIs.
• Provides cleaner C++ wrappers for various methods of the underlying COM methods. For example the encapsulation for IBackgroundCopyManager::EnumJobs method is BITS::CManager::EnumJobs. These wrapper methods will look after hiding the details of COM enumerators, memory allocation and all the other COM minutiae.
• Provides a simple C++ wrapper for BITS callback. This is also implemented internally by using the ATL classes CComObjectRootEx. For example, here is the code you need to setup call-back on your "CMyCallback" class when a job is transferred:

  class CMyCallback : public BITS::CCallback
{
public:
  HRESULT OnJobTransferred(BITS::CJob& /*job*/) override
  {
    //Your code goes here
    return S_OK;
  }
};


BITS::CJob job;
//Some code to obtain a valid "job" instance here.
job.SetNotifyInterface<CMyCallback>();

• Integrates with the various STL collection classes for easier client coding.

The enclosed zip file contains the BITSWrappers source code and a VC 2017 console based application which demonstrates most of the classes functionality.
