Using Windows Firewall programmatically

Question

I have difficulties to find anything related to Windows firewall (about how to add aplications to except list, close ports or disable internet access to some applications) in C++. I found even MS site shows examples in Visual Basic.

Where I can find examples in C++?

Thanks

When working with Windows Vista and later, the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security API is also available.
