GetNameByType
Important The GetNameByType function is a Microsoft-specific extension to the Windows Sockets 1.1
specification. This function is obsolete. For the convenience of Windows Sockets 1.1
developers, the reference material is below.
In Windows Sockets 2, this functionality is realized with the functions
detailed in Protocol-Independent Name Resolution.
The GetNameByType function obtains the name of a network service. The network service is
specified by its service type.
INT GetNameByType(
LPGUID lpServiceType,
| // points to network service type GUID
| LPTSTR lpServiceName,
| // points to buffer to receive name of network service
| DWORD dwNameLength
| // points to variable that specifies buffer size
| );
|
|
Parameters
lpServiceType
Points to a globally unique identifier (GUID) that specifies the type of the network service. The header file SVCGUID.H
includes definitions of several GUID service types, and macros for working with them.
lpServiceName
Points to a buffer to receive a zero-terminated string that uniquely
represents the name of the network service.
dwNameLength
Points to a variable that, on input, specifies the size of the buffer pointed
to by lpServiceName. On output, the variable contains the actual size of the service name string.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is not SOCKET_ERROR ( 1).
If the function fails, the return value is SOCKET_ERROR ( 1). To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
