WSASetService (Windows Sockets) (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

This function registers or removes from the registry a service instance within one or more name spaces. This function can be used to affect a specific name space provider, all providers associated with a specific name space, or all providers across all name spaces.

Note   WSASetService is not supported by the default DNS/WINS namespace provider (Nspm.dll) in Windows CE. However, third parties can implement their own provider and have support for this function if they choose.

This function is supported by the Peer Name Resolution Protocol (PNRP) provider in Windows CE.

INTWSASetService(LPWSAQUERYSETlpqsRegInfo, WSAESETSERVICEOPessOperation, DWORDdwControlFlags);

Parameters

  • lpqsRegInfo
    [in] Pointer to the service information for registration or deregistration.

  • essOperation
    [in] Enumeration. The following table shows the possible values.

    Value Description
    RNRSERVICE_REGISTER Registers the service. For Service Access Protocol (SAP), this means sending out a periodic broadcast. This is an no operation instruction (NOP) for the Domain Name System (DNS) name space. For persistent data stores, this means updating the address information.
    RNRSERVICE_DEREGISTER Removes the service from the registry. For SAP, this means stop sending out the periodic broadcast. This is an NOP for the DNS name space. For persistent data stores, this means deleting address information.
    RNRSERVICE_DELETE Deletes the service from dynamic name and persistent spaces. For services represented by multiple CSADDR_INFO structures (using the SERVICE_MULTIPLE flag), only the supplied address will be deleted and this must match exactly the corresponding CSADDR_INFO structure that was supplied when the service was registered.
  • dwControlFlags
    [in] Description of dwControlFlags is dependent on a specific value. The following table shows this value.

    Flag Description
    SERVICE MULTIPLE Controls the scope of operation. When clear, service addresses are managed as a group. A registration or removal from the registry invalidates all existing addresses before adding the given address set. When set, the action is only performed on the given address set. A registration does not invalidate existing addresses and a removal from the registry only invalidates the given set of addresses.

    The following table shows the meaning of the combined values for essOperation and dwControlFlag.

    Operation Flags Service already exists Service does not exist
    RNRSERVICE_
    REGISTER
    None Overwrites the object and uses only addresses specified. The object is REGISTERED. Creates a new object. Uses only addresses specified. Object is REGISTERED.
    RNRSERVICE_
    REGISTER
    SERVICE_
    MULTIPLE
    Updates object and adds new addresses to the existing set. The object is REGISTERED. Creates a new object. Uses all addresses specified. Object is REGISTERED.
    RNRSERVICE_
    DEREGISTER
    None Removes all addresses, but it does not remove the object from the name space. The object is removed from the registry. WSASERVICE_
    NOT_FOUND
    RNRSERVICE_
    DEREGISTER
    SERVICE_
    MULTIPLE
    Updates the object and removes only addresses that are specified. It only marks the object as DEREGISTERED if no addresses are present. It does not remove the object from the name space. WSASERVICE_
    NOT_FOUND
    RNRSERVICE_
    DELETE
    None Removes the object from the name space. WSASERVICE_
    NOT_FOUND
    RNRSERVICE_
    DELETE
    SERVICE_
    MULTIPLE
    Removes only addresses that are specified. It only removes the object from the name space if no addresses remain. WSASERVICE_
    NOT_FOUND

Return Values

The return value is zero if the operation was successful. If an error occurs, the value SOCKET_ERROR is returned, and a specific error number can be retrieved by calling WSAGetLastError.

The following table shows a list of possible error codes.

Error code Description
WSAEACCES The calling routine does not have sufficient privileges to install the service.
WSAEINVAL One or more required parameters were invalid or missing.
WSANOTINITIALIZED WiS2_32.dll has not been initialized. The application must first call WSAStartup before calling any Windows Sockets functions.
WSA NOT ENOUGH MEMORY There was insufficient memory to perform the operation.
WSASERVICE NOT FOUND No such service is known. The service cannot be found in the specified name space.

Remarks

SERVICE_MULTIPLE lets an application manage its addresses independently. This is useful when the application wants to manage its protocols individually or when the service resides on more than one computer. For instance, when a service uses more than one protocol, it may find that one listening socket aborts but the others remain operational. In this case, the service could remove the aborted address from the registry without affecting the other addresses.

When using SERVICE_MULTIPLE, an application must not let stale addresses remain in the object. This can happen if the application aborts without issuing a DEREGISTER request. When a service registers, it should store its addresses. On its next invocation, the service should explicitly remove these old stale addresses from the registry before registering new addresses.

Service Properties

The following table describes how service property data is represented in a WSAQUERYSET structure. Fields labeled as (Optional) can be supplied with a NULL pointer.

WSAQUERYSET member name Service property description
dwSize Must be set to sizeof (WSAQUERYSET). This is a versioning mechanism.
dwOutputFlags Not applicable and ignored.
LpszServiceInstanceName The referenced string contains the service instance name.
LpServiceClassId The globally unique identifier (GUID) corresponding to this service class.
LpVersion (Optional) Supplies the service instance version number.
LpszComment (Optional) An optional comment string.
DwNameSpace See the following table.
LpNSProviderId See the following table.
LpszContext (Optional) Specifies the starting point of the query in a hierarchical name space.
DwNumberOfProtocols Ignored.
LpafpProtocols Ignored.
LpszQueryString Ignored.
DwNumberOfCsAddrs The number of elements in the array of CSADDR_INFO structures referenced by lpcsaBuffer.
LpcsaBuffer A pointer to an array of CSADDR_INFO structures that contain the addresses on which the service is listening.
LpBlob (Optional) This is a pointer to a provider-specific entity.

The following table shows how the combination of the dwNameSpace and lpNSProviderId parameters determines that name space providers are affected by this function.

DwNameSpace lpNSProviderId Impact
Ignored Non-NULL The specified name space provider.
A valid name space identifier NULL All name space providers that support the indicated name space.
NS_ALL NULL All name space providers.

Notes for Bluetooth

RFCOMM servers call WSASetService to do any of the following tasks:

  • Register service information with Winsock and the SDP driver.
  • Update an SDP record.
  • Delete an SDP record.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE .NET 4.0 and later.
Header: Winsock2.h.
