WLAN_PROFILE_INFO structure (wlanapi.h)

The WLAN_PROFILE_INFO structure contains basic information about a profile.

Syntax

typedef struct _WLAN_PROFILE_INFO {

Members

strProfileName[WLAN_MAX_NAME_LENGTH]

The name of the profile. This value may be the name of a domain if the profile is for provisioning. Profile names are case-sensitive. This string must be NULL-terminated.

Windows XP with SP3 and Wireless LAN API for Windows XP with SP2:  The name of the profile is derived automatically from the SSID of the wireless network. For infrastructure network profiles, the name of the profile is the SSID of the network. For ad hoc network profiles, the name of the profile is the SSID of the ad hoc network followed by -adhoc.
