I'm currently using Visual Studio 2022 version to create a demo project with WMI. I just wanted to know if it is possible to create REST API for the result from WMI using C++? If possible, can you suggest the type of project template that need to be used such that the WMI code can be integrated with the REST API to get the expected output. Just incase suggest some REST API libraries for C++ that are supported by Microsoft Visual Studio.
Thanks in advance !
@YujianYao-MSFT Thanks for your message. Already tried working on CPPREST API by downloading its headers from NuGet Package Manager.
Tried running the code available in https://github.com/Microsoft/cpprestsdk/wiki/Getting-Started-Tutorial but getting syntax errors. Kindly check the attached image. Does this API work only with any specific version of C++? Can you just help me out resolving any errors.
Regarding REST API, I suggest you refer to this document, you could try to customize an API in WMI demo.
I tested the program and got the same error as you.
My solution is as follows:
Open the project properties, click C/C++->Language->Conformance mode, set it to NO and you could run the program.
RESULT:
Best regards,

When the conformance mode was changed to No, i'm getting the following errors and the console application project is not running as expected. Kindly look on to the bellow ScreenShot. Thanks in advance!
I have attached the first error detail below as text:

I suggest you try to click on this option and set it to Current Project. Maybe there are other projects in the solution that affect its operation.
Changed to Current Project, but the issue is not resolved. I have attached the SS below. Kindly review it.
Did you download this nuget package?
And you need to enter Install-Package cpprestsdk in the PM.
Shows the cpprestsdk package already exists
Based on the current information, I am afraid it is difficult to give an accurate solution.
If it is convenient, could you please upload your project to GitHub? This will help resolve your issue.
I have uploaded my project to GitHub can you just help me resolve my issue regarding the cpprestsdk in visual studio
GitHub link: https://github.com/Balukn11/CPPRestAPI/tree/main
Note: Just refer to the README.md file before executing the project
Resolved the error by installing cpprestsdk using vcpkg and setting the Treat WChar_t As Built in Type to Yes (/Zc:wchar_t). Now i'm able to compile and run the code without any problem.
Thanks for the Support!
