EnumPorts
The EnumPorts function enumerates the ports that are available for printing on a specified
server.
BOOL EnumPorts(
LPTSTR pName,
| // pointer to server name
| DWORD Level,
| // specifies type of port info structure
| LPBYTE pPorts,
| // pointer to buffer to receive array of port info. structures
| DWORD cbBuf,
| // specifies size, in bytes, of buffer
| LPDWORD pcbNeeded,
| // pointer to number of bytes stored into buffer (or required
// buffer size)
| LPDWORD pcReturned
| // pointer to number of PORT_INFO_*. structures stored into buffer
| );
|

Parameters
pName
Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the server
whose printer ports you wish to enumerate.
If pName is NULL, the function enumerates the local machine's printer ports.
Level
Specifies the type of data structures pointed to by pPorts.
This value can be 1 or 2.
pPorts
Pointer to a buffer that receives an array of PORT_INFO_1 or PORT_INFO_2 structures. Each structure contains data that describes an available printer
port. The value of Level specifies the type of structure. A Level value of 1 specifies PORT_INFO_1 structures. A Level value of 2 specifies PORT_INFO_2 structures.
cbBuf
Specifies the size, in bytes, of the buffer pointed to by pPorts.
pcbNeeded
Pointer to a variable that the function sets to the size, in bytes, of the
data that enumerates the printer ports. If cbBuf is smaller than this value, EnumPorts fails, GetLastError returns ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER, and the variable pointed to by pcbNeeded represents the required buffer size. If cbBuf is equal to or greater than this value, the variable pointed to by pcbNeeded represents the number of bytes stored into the buffer.
pcReturned
Pointer to a variable that the function sets to the number of PORT_INFO_* structures that it stores into the buffer pointed to by pPorts. This is the number of printer ports that are available on the specified
server.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
The EnumPorts function can succeed even if the server specified by pName does not have a printer defined.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.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 » |
