RegLoadKey
The RegLoadKey function creates a subkey under HKEY_USER or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and stores
registration information from a specified file into that subkey. This
registration information is in the form of a hive. A hive is a discrete body of keys,
subkeys, and values that is rooted at the top of the registry hierarchy. A hive is
backed by a single file and .LOG file.
LONG RegLoadKey(
HKEY hKey,
| // handle of open key
| LPCTSTR lpSubKey,
| // address of name of subkey
| LPCTSTR lpFile
| // address of filename for registry information
| );
|
|
Parameters
hKey
Specifies the key where the subkey will be created. This can be a predefined
reserved handle value, or a handle returned by a call to RegConnectRegistry. The predefined reserved handle values are:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
HKEY_USERS
This function always loads information at the top of the registry hierarchy.
The HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and HKEY_CURRENT_USER handle values cannot be specified for this parameter, because they represent
subsets of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_USERS handle values, respectively.
lpSubKey
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the key to be
created under hKey. This subkey is where the registration information from the file will be
loaded.
lpFile
Points to a null-terminated string containing the name of a file that has
registration information. This file must have been created with the RegSaveKey function. Under the file allocation table (FAT) file system, the filename may
not have an extension.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is ERROR_SUCCESS.
If the function fails, the return value is a nonzero error code defined in
WINERROR.H. You can use the FormatMessage function with the FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM flag to get a generic
description of the error.
Remarks
If hKey is a handle returned by RegConnectRegistry, then the path specified in lpFile is relative to the remote computer.
Windows NT: The calling process must have the SE_RESTORE_NAME privilege. For more
information about privileges, see Privileges.
Windows 95: Security privileges are not supported or required.

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 » |
