[Warning: UMDF 2 is the latest version of UMDF and supersedes UMDF 1. All new UMDF drivers should be written using UMDF 2. No new features are being added to UMDF 1 and there is limited support for UMDF 1 on newer versions of Windows 10. Universal Windows drivers must use UMDF 2. For more info, see Getting Started with UMDF.]

The SetPropertyData method modifies the current setting of a device property.

Syntax

HRESULT SetPropertyData(
  [in]           const DEVPROPKEY *PropertyKey,
  [in]           LCID             Lcid,
  [in]           ULONG            Flags,
  [in]           DEVPROPTYPE      PropertyType,
  [in]           ULONG            PropertyDataSize,
  [in, optional] PVOID            PropertyData
);

Parameters

[in] PropertyKey

A pointer to a DEVPROPKEY structure that specifies the device property key.

[in] Lcid

Specifies a locale identifier. Set this parameter either to a language-specific LCID value or to LOCALE_NEUTRAL. The LOCALE_NEUTRAL LCID specifies that the property is language-neutral (that is, not specific to any language). Do not set this parameter to LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT or LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT. For more information about language-specific LCID values, see LCID Structure.

[in] Flags

Reserved. Drivers should set this value to 0.

[in] PropertyType

A pointer to a DEVPROPTYPE value that specifies the type of the data that is provided in the PropertyData buffer.

[in] PropertyDataSize

The size, in bytes, of the buffer that PropertyData points to.

[in, optional] PropertyData

A pointer to the device property data. Set this parameter to NULL to delete the specified property.

Return value

SetPropertyData returns S_OK if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, the method might return the following values.

Return code	Description
E_OUTOFMEMORY	The framework's attempt to allocate memory failed.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 (ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER)	If the driver specifies WdfPropertyStoreRootClassDeviceInterfaceKey, the requested interface must be one that the UMDF driver previously registered.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 (STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED)	The driver can modify device interface property data only starting with Windows 8.

This method might return an HRESULT-typed value corresponding to one of the other values that Winerror.h contains.

Remarks

Framework-based drivers use the SetPropertyData method to modify device properties that are defined as part of the unified device property model.

In particular, you can use this method to modify a device's hardware key or an instance of a device interface class. When you call IWDFUnifiedPropertyStoreFactory::RetrieveUnifiedDevicePropertyStore, set the RootSpecifier parameter's RootClass member to WdfPropertyStoreRootClassHardwareKey or WdfPropertyStoreRootClassDeviceInterfaceKey.

If you specify WdfPropertyStoreRootClassHardwareKey, then when you call SetPropertyData, you must provide a custom DEVPROPKEY value in the PropertyKey parameter, and not a PnP-defined key. The value must have been previously set by calling SetPropertyData, a SetupDI device property function, or by using the INF AddProperty directive.

If the driver specifies WdfPropertyStoreRootClassDeviceInterfaceKey, the requested interface must be one that the UMDF driver previously registered at runtime.

If the driver registers an interface in its INF file, it must set associated properties in the INF as well.

Examples

HRESULT
SetFriendlyName(
    _In_ IWDFUnifiedPropertyStore * pUnifiedPropertyStore
    )
{
    HRESULT hr = S_OK;
    WCHAR friendlyName[] = L"UMDF OSR USB Fx2 Test Device";

    hr = pUnifiedPropertyStore->SetPropertyData(
            &DEVPKEY_Device_FriendlyName,
            0, //Lcid
            0, //Flags
            DEVPROP_TYPE_STRING, //Type
            sizeof(friendlyName),
            friendlyName
            );

    if (FAILED(hr))
    {
        TraceEvents(
            TRACE_LEVEL_ERROR,
            TEST_TRACE_DEVICE,             
            "SetPropertyData failed: hr = %!HRESULT!",
            hr
            );
        goto exit;
    }

exit:
    return hr;
}
