CeOidGetInfo (CEDB) (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This function retrieves information about an object in the object store. This function is obsolete. Call the CeOidGetInfoEx2 (CEDB) function instead.

A RAPI version of this function exists called CeOidGetInfoEx (RAPI).

Syntax

BOOL CeOidGetInfo(
  CEOID oid, 
  CEOIDINFO* poidInfo
); 

Parameters

  • oid
    [in] Identifier of the object for which information is to be retrieved.
  • poidInfo
    [out] Pointer to a CEOIDINFO (CEDB) structure that contains information about the object.

Return Value

TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure. To get extended error information, call GetLastError. GetLastError may return ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE if the specified object identifier is invalid.

Remarks

Use this function to retrieve information about any object in the object store database or file system.

Note

Earlier versions (2.12 and earlier) of Windows Embedded CE assigned OIDs to objects in other file systems, such as the FAT file system. These OIDs were guaranteed to be unique within a volume, but not across multiple volumes. Effective with Windows CE 3.0, the only file and directory objects that have valid, unique OIDs are in the object store. Database objects on any file system have valid, unique OIDs.

Requirements

Library coredll.lib
