StgSerializePropVariant function (propvarutil.h)
The StgSerializePropVariant function converts a PROPVARIANT data type to a SERIALIZEDPROPERTYVALUE data type.
Syntax
PSSTDAPI StgSerializePropVariant(
[in] const PROPVARIANT *ppropvar,
[out] SERIALIZEDPROPERTYVALUE **ppProp,
[out] ULONG *pcb
);
Parameters
[in] ppropvar
A pointer to PROPVARIANT.
[out] ppProp
A pointer to the newly allocated SERIALIZEDPROPERTYVALUE.
[out] pcb
A pointer to the size of the newly allocated SERIALIZEDPROPERTYVALUE.
Return value
This function can return one of these values.
Remarks
The StgSerializePropVariant function serializes a PROPVARIANT. The function is similar to the StgConvertVariantToProperty function, but the StgSerializePropVariant function automatically handles memory allocation for the new SERIALIZEDPROPERTYVALUE. In addition, StgSerializePropVariant uses the default values CP_WINUNICODE and PID_ILLEGAL for code page and property ID respectively. Use StgSerializePropVariant unless control over these arguments is specifically needed.
