Inserting resource to an exe

[skval]

Hi guys,

using the below code i'm trying to insert resource to external exe.
The problem is, that when i trying to extract the resource FindResource() fail, claiming that there is no resource in that name.
But, the weird part is that using EnumResourceNames() i do find that resource.

any ideas what may cause this?



HANDLE hUpdateRes = ::BeginUpdateResource(
szDest,
TRUE);

HANDLE hFile=CreateFile(szExePath,
GENERIC_READ,
NULL,
NULL,
OPEN_EXISTING,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
NULL);

if(hFile==INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{

return 0;
}

DWORD dwSize;
dwSize=GetFileSize(hFile,NULL);

char *szData=new char[dwSize+1];
DWORD dwReaden;

ReadFile(hFile,(LPVOID)szData,dwSize,&dwReaden,NULL);

if(NULL == hUpdateRes)
{
// ERROR:
return false;
}

bool bRes = false;

if(0 == ::UpdateResource(
hUpdateRes, // update resource handle
RT_RCDATA, // type
szHijackedResName, // name
MAKELANGID(LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US), // language
szData, // ptr to resource info
dwReaden)) // size of resource info.
{
DWORD dwErr = ::GetLastError();
// ERROR: Could not add resource

}

if(0 != (::EndUpdateResource(hUpdateRes, FALSE)))
{
bRes = true;
}




thanks in advance for any further help.
