IHttpFileInfo::GetSize Method

Article
05/20/2022

Retrieves the size of the corresponding file for an IHttpFileInfo interface.

Syntax

virtual VOID GetSize(  
   OUT ULARGE_INTEGER* pliSize  
) const = 0;

Parameters

pliSize
[OUT] A pointer to a ULARGE_INTEGER structure.

Return Value

VOID.

Remarks

The GetSize method retrieves a structure that contains the size of the file that is currently referenced by the IHttpFileInfo interface.

Note

ULARGE_INTEGER is a structure that is declared in the Winnt.h file, and it consists of two DWORD values named LowPart and HighPart. These values are, respectively, the low-order and high-order sections of the actual file size. For example, a file size that is less than 4 GB will have the full file size in the LowPart value and a 0 in the HighPart value.

Example

The following code example demonstrates how to use the IHttpContext::GetFileInfo method to create an HTTP module that retrieves a pointer to an IHttpFileInfo interface. The example then calls the GetSize method to retrieve a pointer to a ULARGE_INTEGER structure. Finally, the example converts the LowPart value from the ULARGE_INTEGER structure to a string and then displays this information to a Web client.

Your module must export the RegisterModule function. You can export this function by creating a module definition (.def) file for your project, or you can compile the module by using the /EXPORT:RegisterModule switch. For more information, see Walkthrough: Creating a Request-Level HTTP Module By Using Native Code.

You can optionally compile the code by using the __stdcall (/Gz) calling convention instead of explicitly declaring the calling convention for each function.
