This method retrieves device-specific information about a remote Microsoft® Windows® CE–based device.

int CeGetDesktopDeviceCaps(
  int nIndex 
);

Parameters

  • nIndex
    [in] Specifies the item to return. It is one of the following values.
    Value Description
    DRIVERVERSION Returns the device driver version.
    TECHNOLOGY Returns the device technology (DT). It is one of the following values:

    DT_PLOTTER (Vector plotter)

    DT_RASDISPLAY (Raster display)

    DT_RASPRINTER (Raster printer)

    DT_RASCAMERA (Raster camera)

    DT_CHARSTREAM (Character stream)

    DT_METAFILE (Metafile)

    DT_DISPFILE (Display file)

    If the hdc parameter identifies the device context of an enhanced metafile, the device technology is that of the referenced device as given to the CreateEnhMetaFile function. To determine whether it is an enhanced metafile device context, use the GetObjectType function.

    HORZSIZE Returns the width, in millimeters, of the physical screen.
    VERTSIZE Returns the height, in millimeters, of the physical screen.
    HORZRES Returns the width, in pixels, of the screen.
    VERTRES Return the height, in raster lines, of the screen.
    BITSPIXEL Returns the number of adjacent color bits for each pixel.
    PLANES Returns the number of color planes.
    NUMBRUSHES Returns the number of device-specific brushes.
    NUMPENS Returns the number of device-specific pens.
    NUMMARKERS Returns the number of device-specific markers.
    NUMFONTS Returns the number of device-specific fonts.
    NUMCOLORS Returns the number of entries in the device's color table, if the device has a color depth of no more than 8 bits per pixel. For devices with greater color depths, –1 is returned.
    ASPECTX Returns the relative width of a device pixel used for line drawing.
    ASPECTY Returns the relative height of a device pixel used for line drawing.
    ASPECTXY Returns the diagonal width of the device pixel used for line drawing.
    PDEVICESIZE Reserved.
    CLIPCAPS Returns the flag that indicates the clipping capabilities of the device. If the device can clip to a rectangle, it is 1. Otherwise, it is 0.
    PHYSICALWIDTH For printing devices, returns the width of the physical page, in device units. For example, a printer set to print at 600 dpi on 8.5"x11" paper has a physical width value of 5100 device units. Note that the physical page is almost always greater than the printable area of the page, and never smaller.
    PHYSICALHEIGHT For printing devices, returns the height of the physical page, in device units. For example, a printer set to print at 600 dpi on 8.5"x11" paper has a physical height value of 6600 device units. Note that the physical page is almost always greater than the printable area of the page, and never smaller.
    PHYSICALOFFSETX For printing devices, returns the distance from the left edge of the physical page to the left edge of the printable area, in device units. For example, a printer set to print at 600 dpi on 8.5"x11" paper, that cannot print on the leftmost 0.25" of paper, has a horizontal physical offset of 150 device units.
    PHYSICALOFFSETY For printing devices, returns the distance from the top edge of the physical page to the top edge of the printable area, in device units. For example, a printer set to print at 600 dpi on 8.5"x11" paper, that cannot print on the topmost 0.5" of paper, has a vertical physical offset of 300 device units.
    RASTERCAPS Returns the value that indicates the raster capabilities of the device, as shown in the following list:

    RC_BANDING (Requires banding support)

    RC_BITBLT (Capable of transferring bitmaps)

    RC_BITMAP64 (Capable of supporting bitmaps larger than 64K)

    RC_DIBTODEV (Capable of supporting the SetDIBitsToDevice function)

    RC_FLOODFILL (Capable of performing flood fills)

    RC_GDI20_OUTPUT (Capable of supporting features of 16-bit Windows 2.0)

    RC_PALETTE (Specifies a palette-based device)
