IMDSPStorage3::GetMetadata method (mswmdm.h)

The GetMetadata method retrieves metadata from the service provider.

Syntax

HRESULT GetMetadata(
  [in] IWMDMMetaData *pMetadata
);

Parameters

[in] pMetadata

Pointer to an IWMDMMetaData interface.

Return value

The method returns an HRESULT. All the interface methods in Windows Media Device Manager can return any of the following classes of error codes:

  • Standard COM error codes
  • Windows error codes converted to HRESULT values
  • Windows Media Device Manager error codes

Remarks

The service provider calls IWMDMMetaData::AddItem for each of the metadata properties to be sent to the application. The service provider should use the predefined metadata name tags (g_wszWMDMTitle, g_wszAlbumTitle, g_dwBitrate, and so on) contained in the mswmdm.h file.
