WsResetMetadata function (webservices.h)

  • Article

Resets a metadata object state to WS_METADATA_STATE_CREATED.

In this state the Metadata object can be reused. WS_POLICY objects that were retrieved using the Metadata object will be released.

  [in]           WS_METADATA *metadata,
  [in, optional] WS_ERROR    *error
);

Parameters

[in] metadata

A pointer to the Metadata object to reset. The pointer must reference a valid WS_METADATA.

Return value

This function can return one of these values.

Return code Description
