CM_Get_Resource_Conflict_DetailsA function (cfgmgr32.h)

  • Article

The CM_Get_Resource_Conflict_Details function obtains the details about one of the resource conflicts in a conflict list.

Syntax

CMAPI CONFIGRET CM_Get_Resource_Conflict_DetailsA(
  [in]      CONFLICT_LIST       clConflictList,
  [in]      ULONG               ulIndex,
  [in, out] PCONFLICT_DETAILS_A pConflictDetails
);

Parameters

[in] clConflictList

Caller-supplied handle to a conflict list, obtained by a previous call to CM_Query_Resource_Conflict_List.

[in] ulIndex

Caller-supplied value used as an index into the conflict list. This value can be from zero to one less than the number returned by CM_Get_Resource_Conflict_Count.

[in, out] pConflictDetails

Caller-supplied address of a CONFLICT_DETAILS structure to receive conflict details. The caller must supply values for the structure's CD_ulSize and CD_ulMask structures.

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.

Remarks

To determine conflicting resource requirements between a specified device and other devices on a machine, use the following steps.

  1. Call CM_Query_Resource_Conflict_List to obtain a handle to a list of resource conflicts.
  2. Call CM_Get_Resource_Conflict_Count to determine the number of conflicts contained in the resource conflict list.
  3. Call CM_Get_Resource_Conflict_Details for each entry in the conflict list.
The following conflicts are typically not reported:
  • If there are multiple conflicts for a resource, and the owners of only some of the conflicts can be determined, the conflicts without identifiable owners are not reported.
  • Conflicts that appear to be with the specified device (that is, the device conflicts with itself) are not reported.
  • If multiple non-Plug and Play devices use the same driver, resource conflicts among these devices might not be reported.
Sometimes, resources assigned to the HAL might be reported as either conflicting with the HAL or not available.
