ADsGetLastError function (adshlp.h)
The ADsGetLastError function retrieves the calling thread's last-error code value.
Syntax
HRESULT ADsGetLastError(
[out] LPDWORD lpError,
[out] LPWSTR lpErrorBuf,
[in] DWORD dwErrorBufLen,
[out] LPWSTR lpNameBuf,
[in] DWORD dwNameBufLen
);
Parameters
[out] lpError
Type: LPDWORD
Pointer to the location that receives the error code.
[out] lpErrorBuf
Type: LPWSTR
Pointer to the location that receives the null-terminated Unicode string that describes the error.
[in] dwErrorBufLen
Type: DWORD
Size, in characters, of the lpErrorBuf buffer. If the buffer is too small to receive the error string, the string is truncated, but still null-terminated. A buffer, of at least 256 bytes, is recommended.
[out] lpNameBuf
Type: LPWSTR
Pointer to the location that receives the null-terminated Unicode string that describes the name of the provider that raised the error.
[in] dwNameBufLen
Type: DWORD
Size, in characters, of the lpNameBuf buffer. If the buffer is too small to receive the name of the provider, the string is truncated, but still null-terminated.
Return value
Type: HRESULT
This method supports standard return values, as well as the following.
Remarks
ADSI errors fall into two types according to the values of their facility code. The standard ADSI error codes have a facility code value of 0x5 and the extended ADSI error codes assume that of FACILITY_WIN32. The error values of the standard and extended ADSI error codes are of the forms of 0x80005xxx and 0x8007xxxx, respectively. Use the HRESULT_FACILITY(hr) macro to determine the ADSI error type.
if (FAILED(hr))
{
wprintf(L"An error occurred.\n HRESULT: %x\n",hr);
// If facility is Win32, get the Win32 error
if (HRESULT_FACILITY(hr)==FACILITY_WIN32)
{
DWORD dwLastError;
WCHAR szErrorBuf[MAX_PATH];
WCHAR szNameBuf[MAX_PATH];
// Get extended error value.
HRESULT hr_return =S_OK;
hr_return = ADsGetLastError( &dwLastError,
szErrorBuf,
MAX_PATH,
szNameBuf,
MAX_PATH);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr_return))
{
wprintf(L"Error Code: %d\n Error Text: %ws\n Provider: %ws\n", dwLastError, szErrorBuf, szNameBuf);
}
}
}
If hr is 80071392, the code example returns the following.
An error occurred.
HRESULT: 80071392
Error Code: 8305
Error Text: 00002071: UpdErr: DSID-030502F1, problem 6005 (ENTRY_EXISTS), data 0
Provider: LDAP Provider
