RasGetEntryProperties  FDIRFG 

[New - Windows NT]

The RasGetEntryProperties function retrieves the properties of a phone-book entry.

DWORD RasGetEntryProperties(

    LPTSTR lpszPhonebook,

// pointer to full path and filename of phone-book file

    LPTSTR lpszEntry,

// pointer to an entry name

    LPRASENTRY lpRasEntry,

// buffer that receives entry information

    LPDWORD lpdwEntryInfoSize,

// size, in bytes, of the lpRasEntry buffer

    LPBYTE lpbDeviceInfo,

// buffer that receives device-specific configuration information

    LPDWORD lpdwDeviceInfoSize

// size, in bytes, of the lpbDeviceInfo buffer

   );

 

 

Parameters

lpszPhonebook

Windows NT: Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the full path and filename of a phone-book (.PBK) file. If this parameter is NULL, the function uses the current default phone-book file. The default phone-book file is the one selected by the user in the User Preferences property sheet of the Dial-Up Networking dialog box.

lpszEntry

Pointer to a null-terminated string containing an existing entry name. If you specify an empty string,   , the function returns default values in the buffers pointed to by the lpRasEntry and lpbDeviceInfo parameters.

lpRasEntry

Pointer to a RASENTRYVJI5SP structure followed by additional bytes for the alternate phone number list, if there is one. The structure receives the connection data associated with the phone-book entry specified by the lpszEntry parameter. Before calling the function, set the dwSize member of the structure to sizeof(RASENTRY) to identify the version of the structure. This parameter can be NULL.

lpdwEntryInfoSize

Pointer to a variable that contains the size, in bytes, of the lpRasEntry buffer. On return, the function sets this variable to the number of bytes required. This parameter can be NULL if the lpRasEntry parameter is NULL.

To determine the required buffer size, call RasGetEntryProperties with lpRasEntry set to NULL and *lpdwEntryInfoSize set to zero. The function returns the required buffer size in *lpdwEntryInfoSize.

lpbDeviceInfo

Pointer to a buffer that receives device-specific configuration information. This is opaque TAPI device configuration information that you should not manipulate directly. This parameter can be NULL. For more information about TAPI device configuration, see the Win32 Telephony (TAPI) Programmer s Reference.

lpdwDeviceInfoSize

Pointer to a variable that contains the size, in bytes, of the buffer specified by the lpbDeviceInfo parameter. On return, the function sets this variable to the number of bytes required. This parameter can be NULL if the lpbDeviceInfo parameter s NULL.

To determine the required buffer size, call RasGetEntryProperties with lpbDeviceInfo set to NULL and *lpdwDeviceInfoSize set to zero. The function returns the required buffer size in *lpdwDeviceInfoSize.

 

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is zero.

If the function fails, the return value can be one of the following error codes.

Value

Meaning

ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER

The function was called with an invalid parameter.

ERROR_BUFFER_INVALID

The address or buffer specified by lpRasEntry is invalid.

ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL

The buffer size indicated in lpdwEntryInfoSize is too small.

ERROR_CANNOT_OPEN_PHONEBOOK

The phone book is corrupted or is missing components.

ERROR_CANNOT_FIND_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY

The phone-book entry does not exist.
