hey i need c++ program to edit windows registry

One good program is Regedit.exe. It is probably written in C++.

Qt has an excellent framework for editing registy - that is, QSettings. And for bonus points, if you happen to change your mind and go Linux, your code would still work, storing your data in .ini-style configuration files.
Take note that Qt is very fat for a C++ library, but also very functional. There's a crazy lot you can do with it. I also absolutely recommend it for GUI.

There are probably a thousand small C++ wrappers for registry access. Of course I wrote my own, too. See the class RegistryKey in my envvc program. It's only read-only access, but you'll get the idea.

How is coding for create Edit control object(Cedit class) with Mingw?
I read msdn did used "afxwin.h" but cannot found with MinGw compiler.
It is you showed code as good.
The afxwin.h header is part of the MFC framework. No one has come up with a MinGW version of it. So no, you cannot use it with MinGW. Note that even if you could, you would still need to buy a version of Visual Studio that comes with MFC in order to get a license that would allow you to use MFC.
If I were you, I would look into other GUI frameworks. For example Qt (which is much nicer than MFC to begin with; MFC is a legacy framework that most people don't use anymore.)

I'm developing a Linux application that needs to save some sensible data in order to reload them when the machine reboot.
So I'm investigating on how to save somewhere my data and protect them.
(Obviously there will be always a possibility to crack it)
My goal is not to reinvent the wheel, so if there is a working solution, that's what I'm looking for.
Add a dedicated user for your application and set proper directory attributes. So other users can't see the directory and files, only root.
Use a simple scramble algorhythm just to make the file hard to read by a simple cat.
Never store passwords, and other sensible information in files.

I'm a smartphone app developer.
I want to make a app running in iOS,android,winphone.
I use cocos2d-x platform tool to make this app. it base of c/c++ language.
So,
Dose anyone can tell me How to read and write excel with c/c++
For what purpose? Just reading the file can be done by treating it as an opaque stream of bytes, just like any other file.
I doubt that's what you really mean, though.
If you want to interpret the file's contents, and present/update the calculations, then surely you must realize that the answer to "how" that is done must be gigantic? Excel is a huge, huge, and very old application, probably the result of many millions of lines of code.
Nobody can tell you "how" to interpret that in a simple answer here.
The closest thing you can probably get here is a recommendation on a library to use. I had a quick look, and LibXL was the first one I found for C++. It is a commercial library, and I have no experience with it.

How should i get it, by SVN?
Can i use Eclipse and its Subversive Team Provider add on to manage my changes?
Then if i make some changes how can i commit, who decide that my changes are friendly and good enough?
To be honest i want to try to contribute to some library, because of motivation that contribution provides me on learning C++ details.
I search and read a little about Boost, but i think it is too complicated to be a starting point.
Thus can you provide a path to start and become an open source library contributor?
Well, the very first step is to actually read the FAQ. That's always a good start.
Especially the "How can I contribute to development?" question.

For the last 3 weeks I've been trying to create a code generator and my boss told me to put into a plugin DLL so we can call it next time when we want to reuse it !
So I searched the web for a Dll meaning but it still kind of vague , so if you have a better simple definition or a clear idea about DLL in C++ for beginners please enlighten me.
Another thing : I noticed that some uses QT to create plugin , so what's in QT that give us the possibility to do that that we can't find in any other IDE ?
PS: I've never used QT!
DLL-Dynamic Link Library is classes, methods and procedures packaged up into a compiled file to be used in conjunction with other programs. Its similar to an executable .exe file except you don't need a main method.
