NdisClGetProtocolVcContextFromTapiCallId (NDIS 5.1) function
Note NDIS 5. x has been deprecated and is superseded by NDIS 6. x. For new NDIS driver development, see Network Drivers Starting with Windows Vista. For information about porting NDIS 5. x drivers to NDIS 6. x, see Porting NDIS 5.x Drivers to NDIS 6.0.
NdisClGetProtocolVcContextFromTapiCallId retrieves the client context for a virtual connection (VC) identified by a TAPI Call ID string.
Syntax
NDIS_STATUS NdisClGetProtocolVcContextFromTapiCallId(
_In_ UNICODE_STRING TapiCallId,
_Out_ PNDIS_HANDLE ProtocolVcContext
);
Parameters
TapiCallId [in]
Unicode string that identifies a particular VC. This string is the Unicode version of a string identifier that was previously returned by the NdisCoGetTapiCallID function.ProtocolVcContext [out]
Pointer to a caller-allocated NDIS_HANDLE that receives a handle to the client context for the VC. The client supplied this context to NDIS on return from its ProtocolCoCreateVc handler.
Return value
Returns one of the following status values:
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
| NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS | NDIS successfully retrieved the handle to the client VC context for the VC identified by the TAPI Call ID string. |
| NDIS_STATUS_FAILURE | The attempt to retrieve the handle to the client VC context failed. |
Remarks
Suppose a call manager calls NdisCoCreateVc to create a VC for a TAPI call. NDIS in turn supplies the handle to the VC to a client. The client passes this VC handle in a call to the NdisCoGetTapiCallId function to retrieve a string identifier for the VC. The client can then present this identifier as a Unicode string to NdisClGetProtocolVcContextFromTapiCallId to get back its context for the VC.
The client creates a context for each VC that it manages. The client uses NdisCoGetTapiCallId to retrieve a string identifier for each VC. The client passes each string identifier to a TAPI application to identify each VC. Later, if a TAPI application passes one of these string identifiers down to the client in a VC-related operation, the client must pass this string identifier as a Unicode string in a call to NdisClGetProtocolVcContextFromTapiCallId to get back the correct context for the VC.
