IPortableDeviceManager::GetDeviceDescription

Retrieves the description of a device.

Syntax

  HRESULT GetDeviceDescription(
  LPCWSTR  pszPnPDeviceID,
  WCHAR*  pDeviceDescription,
  DWORD*  pcchDeviceDescription
);

Parameters

pszPnPDeviceID

[in]  Pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the device's Plug and Play ID. You can retrieve a list of Plug and Play names of devices that are currently connected by calling GetDevices.

pDeviceDescription

[in, out]  A caller-allocated buffer to hold the user-description name of the device. The caller must allocate the memory for this parameter. To learn the required size for this parameter, first call this method with this parameter set to NULL and pcchDeviceDescription set to 0; the method will succeed and set pcchDeviceDescription to the required buffer size to hold the device-friendly name, including the termination character.

pcchDeviceDescription

[in, out]  The number of characters (not including the termination character) in pDeviceDescription. On input, the maximum length of pDeviceDescription; on output, the length of the returned string in pDeviceDescription.

Return Values

The method returns an HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Return code Description
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER) The supplied buffer is not large enough to hold the device description. (Refer to the value returned in pcchDeviceDescription for the required size.)
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_INVALID_DATA) The device description could not be found.
S_OK The method succeeded.
E_POINTER At least one of the required arguments was a NULL pointer.
