CM_Get_Next_Res_Des function (cfgmgr32.h)

The CM_Get_Next_Res_Des function obtains a handle to the next resource descriptor, of a specified resource type, for a logical configuration on the local machine.

Syntax

CMAPI CONFIGRET CM_Get_Next_Res_Des(
  [out]           PRES_DES    prdResDes,
  [in]            RES_DES     rdResDes,
  [in]            RESOURCEID  ForResource,
  [out, optional] PRESOURCEID pResourceID,
  [in]            ULONG       ulFlags
);

Parameters

[out] prdResDes

Pointer to a location to receive a resource descriptor handle.

[in] rdResDes

Caller-supplied handle to either a resource descriptor or a logical configuration. For more information, see the following Remarks section.

[in] ForResource

Caller-supplied resource type identifier, indicating the type of resource descriptor being requested. This must be one of the ResType_-prefixed constants defined in Cfgmgr32.h.

[out, optional] pResourceID

Pointer to a location to receive a resource type identifier, if ForResource specifies ResType_All. For any other ForResource value, callers should set this to NULL.

[in] ulFlags

Not used, must be zero.

Return value

If the operation succeeds, the function returns CR_SUCCESS. Otherwise, it returns one of the CR_-prefixed error codes defined in Cfgmgr32.h.

Note  Starting with Windows 8, CM_Get_Next_Res_Des returns CR_CALL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED when used in a Wow64 scenario. To request information about the hardware resources on a local machine it is necessary implement an architecture-native version of the application using the hardware resource APIs. For example: An AMD64 application for AMD64 systems.
 

Remarks

To enumerate a logical configuration's resource descriptors, begin by calling CM_Get_Next_Res_Des with the logical configuration's handle as the argument for rdResDes. This obtains a handle to the first resource descriptor of the type specified by ForResource. Then for each subsequent call to CM_Get_Next_Res_Des, specify the most recently obtained descriptor handle as the argument for rdResDes. Repeat until the function returns CR_NO_MORE_RES_DES.

To retrieve the information stored in a resource descriptor, call CM_Get_Res_Des_Data.

To modify the information stored in a resource descriptor, call CM_Modify_Res_Des.

Callers of CM_Get_Next_Res_Des must call CM_Free_Res_Des_Handle to deallocate the resource descriptor handle, after it is no longer needed.
