IEnumCERTVIEWATTRIBUTE::GetName method (certview.h)

Article
02/22/2024

The GetName method retrieves the name of the current attribute in the attribute-enumeration sequence.

Syntax

HRESULT GetName(
  [out] BSTR *pstrOut
);

Parameters

[out] pstrOut

A pointer to a variable of BSTR type that contains the name of the attribute.

Return value

C++

If the method succeeds, the method returns S_OK and the pstrOut parameter contains the name of the attribute.

To use this method, create a variable of BSTR type, set the variable equal to NULL, and pass the address of this variable as pstrOut. When you have finished using the BSTR, free it by calling the SysFreeString function.

If the method fails, it returns an HRESULT value that indicates the error. For a list of common error codes, see Common HRESULT Values.

VB

The return value is a String that contains the name of the attribute.

Remarks

This method is used to retrieve the name of the attribute currently referenced by the attribute-enumeration sequence.

If the attribute-enumeration sequence is not referencing a valid attribute, GetName will fail. Use one of the following methods to navigate through the enumeration:

IEnumCERTVIEWATTRIBUTE::Reset: Moves to the beginning of the enumeration sequence.
IEnumCERTVIEWATTRIBUTE::Next: Moves to the next attribute in the enumeration sequence.
IEnumCERTVIEWATTRIBUTE::Skip: Skips a specified number of attributes.

Examples

BSTR    bstrAttribName = NULL;

// pEnumAttr is previously instantiated IEnumCERTVIEWATTRIBUTE object
hr = pEnumAttr->GetName(&bstrAttribName);
if (S_OK != hr)
    printf("Failed call to GetName - %x\n", hr);
else
    printf("Attribute name is %ws\n", bstrAttribName );

// free memory when done
if (NULL != bstrAttribName)
    SysFreeString(bstrAttribName);
