Download URL history of IE9 and IE10 - c++

I want to know where does the Internet Explorer stores the history for the downloads (urls).
Does it keep it in some DB files like Firefox and Chrome? Or does it store it in Registry?

The use of the term "Downloads" is a bit ambiguous-- do you mean "File downloads" or "All content downloaded by the browser including images, CSS, JS, etc)?
Internet Explorer stores virtually all of its records in databases (IE9 and below use memory-mapped files named index.dat, while IE10+ use a proper database engine).
You should not attempt to manually interact with index.dat or the database; instead, you should use the appropriate APIs (e.g. the WinINET cache APIs or the IE History APIs) to collect data as needed.

Mapping Sharepoint Drives

I'm not sure how to phrase this question, but it's my understanding that a sharepoint run website (such as a business's intranet) can be mapped to a network drive. You could theoretically access that drive and get documents from it OR upload documents to that drive and it would update the sharepoint run website with the new document.
I have no experience with this and it seems like a very neat thing to do. I only have some experience with creating sharepoint webpages and some security regarding those webpages (so, not very advanced).
How do I go about enabling sharepoint webpages to do this? I don't really even know what to look up.
If a SharePoint site is accessible to employees, they can map a drive letter to the UNC filepath of a SharePoint site, library, or folder.
The UNC path requires dropping the http protocol prefix and flipping all forward slashes to backslashes.
For example, if you have a SharePoint library that can be accessed at http://contoso.sharepoint.com/mycoolsite/mycoollibrary, users can map a drive letter to \\contoso.sharepoint.com\mycoolsite\mycoollibrary to open that library in Windows Explorer.
Accessing a SharePoint site via Windows Explorer does require the WebClient service to be running on the user's computer. It uses the WebDAV publishing model to treat SharePoint directories as if they were PC folders. This service does have some limitations that you wouldn't run into when using SharePoint in the browser. For example, by default it can only move files up to 50Mb; this is a registry setting on the user's computer, not a SharePoint limitation.
Note that users do not need to map a drive letter to use this functionality; they can navigate to \\contoso.sharepoint.com\mycoolsite\mycoollibrary in Windows Explorer directly. Mapping a drive is sort of equivalent to bookmarking the location for easy access.

Read data from different system in different format, like xml, csv, database, etc in IBM BPM

I am very new to IBM BPM. I want to know how can i read/write data from/to different system to IBM BPM ? What are the different formats supported ? like xml, csv, database, WSDL etc. ??
Let us suppose I have a system from where i can get some data, may be in the form of xml, csv or database, etc (without WSDL contract. Now I want to create an interface in my IBM BPM, which can be used to read/extract data from above mentioned system. Is this possible without a WSDL contract ?
IBM BPM provides out of the box connectors for both the standard (BPMN) and advanced (BPEL) products. For BPM Standard the System Data Toolkit has built in ready to go integration points for databases, SOAP, XML parsing, HTTP requests, and more. There are a few examples of connectors in the L2-SampleApps project. There are more here on the BPM Tutorials page and here. and a full PDF of simple how to samples.
For the advanced side, there are some example here which have code you can review for connecting to various outside systems.
When you say "import from a remote location" which of the following do you mean
A user looking at a coach and uploading to the server from their computer
A user lookking at a coach and uploading to the server from a network location
A user looking at a coach and selecting from a location on the BPM server
The server accessing a file on its file system
The server accessing a file on another file system
If it is one of the coach options, you could use the file upload widget for coaches and then parse the file that is uploaded from the file repository using one of the open source java packages that allow reading of excel spreadsheets.

Access data from sqlite db in Google chrome Extension

I am creating a Google chrome Extension in this extension I want to access(query) data from "SqliteDb".The SqliteDb placed in Temp folder.
How will i do this.please suggest me.if have any need of using plugins then provide me link.
Thanks
I'm rather confused; to me this seems pretty obvious. If you want to access sqlite from a NPAPI plugin (which you can then use from inside a chrome extension) you need to embed the sqlite libary.
There should be no reason that you can't use normal C (or C++) libraries for database access from within your plugin.

Inconsistent PDF URLs returned from SharePoint query web service

I'm searching a SharePoint server through web services. When the web services return Word/Excel/PowerPoint documents, they contain links to the actual files, e.g. http://server/site/mydoc.doc. When the web services return PDF documents, they contain links to pages that link to the PDF document, e.g. http://server/site/DispForm.aspx?ID=1 which would contain a link to http://server/site/mydoc.pdf. I've tried _vti_bin/search.asmx with actions Query and QueryEx with no luck. What is the best way to get a link to the actual document so my app can download it?
Unfortunately, I'm using a large, shared SharePoint installation, and it's very unlikely that the server configuration can be changed.
You need the PDF IFilter installed on the server in order for the crawl to recognize PDF files and index them correctly. Here are some instructions from Adobe (PDF warning!) as well.

Sharepoint web services to edit existing list from desktop

Perhaps I am not asking or searching for this correctly:
I want to have a desktop script (currently using python) that will update a list on a sharepoint site.
The current script reads various file shares, ftp sites and a ArcGIS database to determine which metadata files have been updated and published. The script then writes all these results to a Excel spreadsheet.
We would like to do the same thing, but keep the data in a Share Point list instead of a spreadsheet. We don't need to upload any files (which is what I keep running across in my search) but just update or add to a list.
We could care less about what language or tools we use, we just don't have access to any custom coding on the Share Point server.
You should be able to use the lists webservice on the Sharepoint server,
the url is normally:
http://host/sitename/_vti_bin/lists.asmx
you are looking at the UpdateListItems webservice call. I don't know python but I use C# and work with sharepoint every day you can find a working example on MSDN on a Windows app to call the web service.
