CM_Get_Res_Des_Data function (cfgmgr32.h)

The CM_Get_Res_Des_Data function retrieves the information stored in a resource descriptor on the local machine.

Syntax

CMAPI CONFIGRET CM_Get_Res_Des_Data(
  [in]  RES_DES rdResDes,
  [out] PVOID   Buffer,
  [in]  ULONG   BufferLen,
  [in]  ULONG   ulFlags
);

Parameters

[in] rdResDes

Caller-supplied handle to a resource descriptor, obtained by a previous call to CM_Get_Next_Res_Des.

[out] Buffer

Address of a buffer to receive the contents of a resource descriptor. The required buffer size should be obtained by calling CM_Get_Res_Des_Data_Size.

[in] BufferLen

Caller-supplied length of the buffer specified by Buffer.

[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_Res_Des_Data 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

Information returned in the buffer supplied by Buffer will be formatted as one of the resource type structures listed in the description of CM_Add_Res_Des, based on the resource type that was specified when CM_Get_Next_Res_Des was called to obtain the resource descriptor handle.
