IProvisioningProfileWireless::CreateProfile method

Note  Wireless Provisioning Services (WPS) is no longer available as of Windows Vista.

 

The CreateProfile method enables the dynamic configuration of a new profile in the preferred profile list using XML.

Syntax

HRESULT CreateProfile(
  [in]  BSTR  bstrXMLWirelessConfigProfile,
  [in]  BSTR  bstrXMLConnectionConfigProfile,
  [in]  GUID  *pAdapterInstanceGuid,
  [out] ULONG *pulStatus
);

Parameters

  • bstrXMLWirelessConfigProfile [in]
    String containing the XML data for the wireless profile. This XML data must be in the format defined for the WirelessProfile schema.

  • bstrXMLConnectionConfigProfile [in]
    String containing the XML data for the connection settings associated with the wireless profile.

    Note   This parameter is not supported on Windows XP with Service Pack 2 and must be set to NULL on this operating system.

     

  • pAdapterInstanceGuid [in]
    GUID identifying the device on which this profile is to be applied. The GUID value can be derived through the EnumComponents or FindComponent methods of the INetCfg interface.

  • pulStatus [out]
    A pointer to a status field used to return a service-specific failure code. These codes are associated with the return value to provide a more detailed reason for the failure.

Return value

If the method succeeds, the return value is S_OK; otherwise, returns one of the following codes:

Return code Description
ERROR_BAD_PROFILE

The method call has failed.

ERROR_BAD_CONFIGURATION

The method call has failed.

ERROR_CREATE_FAILED

The wireless profile was not created.

ERROR_CONNECTION_INVALID

The object has already been added to another collection.

 

Remarks

If the return value is non-zero, then the value of the pulStatus parameter can be used to provide more information about the failure:

  • If the value of the pulStatus parameter is WZC_PROFILE_SUCCESS (0), the error is related to system configuration or validation of the XML data.

  • If the value of the pulStatus parameter is non-zero, the error is related to a problem with the XML data specified by the bstrXMLWirelessConfigProfile parameter.

The following table defines the mapping between the return value and the value of the pulStatus parameter:

Return value pulStatus value

ERROR_BAD_PROFILE

WZC_PROFILE_XML_* error codes

ERROR_BAD_CONFIGURATION

WZC_PROFILE_CONFIG_* error codes

ERROR_CREATE_FAILED
