SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetailA function (setupapi.h)
The SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail function retrieves driver information detail for a device information set or a particular device information element in the device information set.
Syntax
WINSETUPAPI BOOL SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetailA(
[in] HDEVINFO DeviceInfoSet,
[in, optional] PSP_DEVINFO_DATA DeviceInfoData,
[in] PSP_DRVINFO_DATA_A DriverInfoData,
[in, out] PSP_DRVINFO_DETAIL_DATA_A DriverInfoDetailData,
[in] DWORD DriverInfoDetailDataSize,
[out, optional] PDWORD RequiredSize
);
Parameters
[in] DeviceInfoSet
A handle to a device information set that contains a driver information element for which to retrieve driver information.
[in, optional] DeviceInfoData
A pointer to an SP_DEVINFO_DATA structure that specifies a device information element that represents the device for which to retrieve driver information. This parameter is optional and can be NULL. If this parameter is specified, SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail retrieves information about a driver in a driver list for the specified device. If this parameter is NULL, SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail retrieves information about a driver that is a member of the global class driver list for DeviceInfoSet.
[in] DriverInfoData
A pointer to an SP_DRVINFO_DATA structure that specifies the driver information element that represents the driver for which to retrieve details. If DeviceInfoData is specified, the driver must be a member of the driver list for the device that is specified by DeviceInfoData. Otherwise, the driver must be a member of the global class driver list for DeviceInfoSet.
[in, out] DriverInfoDetailData
A pointer to an SP_DRVINFO_DETAIL_DATA structure that receives detailed information about the specified driver. If this parameter is not specified, DriverInfoDetailDataSize must be zero. If this parameter is specified, DriverInfoDetailData.cbSize must be set to the value of sizeof(SP_DRVINFO_DETAIL_DATA) before it calls SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail.
[in] DriverInfoDetailDataSize
The size, in bytes, of the DriverInfoDetailData buffer.
[out, optional] RequiredSize
A pointer to a variable that receives the number of bytes required to store the detailed driver information. This value includes both the size of the structure and the additional bytes required for the variable-length character buffer at the end that holds the hardware ID list and the compatible ID list. The lists are in REG_MULTI_SZ format. For information about hardware and compatible IDs, see Device Identification Strings.
Return value
The function returns TRUE if it is successful. Otherwise, it returns FALSE and the logged error can be retrieved by making a call to GetLastError.
Remarks
If the specified driver information member and the caller-supplied buffer are both valid, this function is guaranteed to fill in all static fields in the SP_DRVINFO_DETAIL_DATA structure and as many IDs as possible in the variable-length buffer at the end while still maintaining REG_MULTI_SZ format. In this case, the function returns FALSE and a call to GetLastError returns ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER. If specified, RequiredSize contains the total number of bytes required for the structure with all IDs.
Note
The setupapi.h header defines SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail as an alias that automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that is not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
