Open the Windows SDK help file and navigate to "System Shutdown Functions".
Or, search the help for ExitWindows or ExitWindowsEx.
Also, this question has been asked an uncountable number of times before.
Head to http://groups.google.com and search for something like "cppbuilder
restart windows".

This has been discussed many times before.
// For example, try this function, with argument mode = 1:
void SystemShutDown( int mode )
{
HANDLE hToken;
TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tkp;
AnsiString error;
// Get a token for this process.
if ( !OpenProcessToken( GetCurrentProcess(), TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES |
TOKEN_QUERY, &hToken ) )
error = "OpenProcessToken";
// Get the LUID for the shutdown privilege.
LookupPrivilegeValue( NULL, SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME, &tkp.Privileges[0].Luid );
tkp.PrivilegeCount = 1; // one privilege to set
tkp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
// Get the shutdown privilege for this process.
AdjustTokenPrivileges( hToken, FALSE, &tkp, 0, (PTOKEN_PRIVILEGES)NULL,
0 );
// Cannot test the return value of AdjustTokenPrivileges.
if ( GetLastError() != ERROR_SUCCESS )
error = "AdjustTokenPrivileges";
switch( mode )
{
// 0 = Forcefully close apps, shutdown and leave system at shutoff
point
case 0: if ( !ExitWindowsEx( EWX_SHUTDOWN | EWX_FORCE, 0 ) )
error = "ExitWindowsEx";
break;
// 1 = Forcefully close apps, shutdown and reboot
case 1: if ( !ExitWindowsEx( EWX_REBOOT | EWX_FORCE, 0 ) )
error = "ExitWindowsEx";
break;
// 2 = Forcefully close apps, and logoff
case 2: if ( !ExitWindowsEx( EWX_LOGOFF | EWX_FORCE, 0 ) )
error = "ExitWindowsEx";
break;
// 3 = Forcefully close apps, shutdown and poweroff
case 3: if ( !ExitWindowsEx( EWX_POWEROFF | EWX_FORCE, 0 ) )
error = "ExitWindowsEx";
break;
}
}
Alternatively, you can call shutdown command:
system( "shutdown -r -f -t 03" )
or:
system( "shutdown -s -t 00" )
.... but look at arguments for meanings (restart, logoff, shutdown ,...).
