IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICE_INFO (Windows CE 5.0)
This IOCTL provides information about the system parameters information (SPI) codes supported by the SystemParametersInfo function. A request to retrieve the SPI codes is made by calling the OEMIoControl function with IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICE_INFO.
Parameters
dwIoControlCode
[in] Set to IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICE_INFO to obtain information about the SPI codes supported by SystemParametersInfo.lpInBuf
[in] Pointer to a DWORD containing one of the SPI_* codes shown in the following table.Value Description SPI_GETPLATFORMTYPE Specifies the type of device. SPI_GETOEMINFO Specifies OEM information. This information distinguishes the device from others of the same type.
SPI_GETPLATFORMVERSION Assigns a version number to an OEM OS design when used in conjunction with the SPI_GETPLATFORMTYPE IOCTL. For more information, see Implementation of the SPI_GETPLATFORMVERSION IOCTL.
nInBufsize
[in] Size, in bytes, of lpInBuf, which must be 4.lpOutBuf
[out] Pointer to the output buffer supplied by the caller.Your OEM adaptation layer (OAL) implementation should place the information requested by the parameters dwIoControlCode and lpInBuf into lpOutBuf, set lpBytesReturned to indicate the size of the data in lpOutbuf, and then return TRUE*.*
If the size of the requested information exceeds the output buffer size specified by nOutBufSize, specify the required size in lpBytesReturned.
Then, call the SetLastError function with the flag ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER and return the value FALSE. This enables the calling application to allocate sufficient buffer space before calling IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICE_INFO.
nOutBufSize
[in] Specifies the maximum number of bytes that can be returned in lpOutBuf.The caller sets this value.
lpBytesReturned
[in] Number of bytes returned in lpOutBuf.
Return Values
TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure.
Requirements
OS Versions: Windows CE 3.0 and later.
Header: Pkfuncs.h.
