ServiceEntry() Example
To implement a wrapped Personal Folders file (PST) store provider, you must initialize the wrapped PST store provider by using the MSProviderInit function as an entry point. After the provider's DLL is initialized, the MSGSERVICEENTRY function configures the wrapped PST store provider.
In this topic, the MSProviderInit function and the MSGSERVICEENTRY function are demonstrated by using code examples from the Sample Wrapped PST Store Provider. The sample implements a wrapped PST provider that is intended to be used in conjunction with the Replication API. For more information about downloading and installing the Sample Wrapped PST Store Provider, see Installing the Sample Wrapped PST Store Provider. For more information about the Replication API, see About the Replication API.
After you have initialized a wrapped PST store provider, you must implement functions so that MAPI and the MAPI spooler can log on to the message store provider. For more information, see Logging On to a Wrapped PST Store Provider.
Initialization Routine
All wrapped PST store providers must implement the MSProviderInit function as an entry point to initialize the provider's DLL. MSProviderInit checks to see if the version number of the service provider interface, ulMAPIVer, is compatible with the current version number, CURRENT_SPI_VERSION. The function saves the MAPI memory management routines into the g_lpAllocateBuffer, g_lpAllocateMore, and g_lpFreeBuffer parameters. These memory management routines should be used throughout the wrapped PST store implementation for memory allocation and deallocation.
MSProviderInit() Example
STDINITMETHODIMP MSProviderInit (
HINSTANCE /*hInstance*/,
LPMALLOC lpMalloc,
LPALLOCATEBUFFER lpAllocateBuffer,
LPALLOCATEMORE lpAllocateMore,
LPFREEBUFFER lpFreeBuffer,
ULONG ulFlags,
ULONG ulMAPIVer,
ULONG FAR * lpulProviderVer,
LPMSPROVIDER FAR * lppMSProvider)
{
Log(true,"MSProviderInit function called\n");
if (!lppMSProvider || !lpulProviderVer) return MAPI_E_INVALID_PARAMETER;
HRESULT hRes = S_OK;
*lppMSProvider = NULL;
*lpulProviderVer = CURRENT_SPI_VERSION;
if (ulMAPIVer < CURRENT_SPI_VERSION)
{
Log(true,"MSProviderInit: The version of the subsystem cannot handle this"
+ "version of the provider\n");
return MAPI_E_VERSION;
}
Log(true,"MSProviderInit: saving off memory management routines\n");
g_lpAllocateBuffer = lpAllocateBuffer;
g_lpAllocateMore = lpAllocateMore;
g_lpFreeBuffer = lpFreeBuffer;
HMODULE hm = LoadLibrary("C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\System" +
"\\MSMAPI\\1033\\MSPST32.dll" );
if (!hm) hm = LoadLibrary("C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\Office12" +
"\\MSPST32.dll" );
Log(true,"LoadLibrary returned 0x%08X\n", hm);
LPMSPROVIDERINIT pMsProviderInit = NULL;
if (hm)
{
pMsProviderInit = (LPMSPROVIDERINIT)GetProcAddress(hm, "MSProviderInit");
Log(true,"GetProcAddress returned 0x%08X\n", pMsProviderInit);

if (NULL == pWrappedProvider)

}
// Copy pointer to the allocated object back into the
//return IMSProvider object pointer
*lppMSProvider = pWrappedProvider;
}
}
else hRes = E_OUTOFMEMORY;
return hRes;
}
Service Entry Routine
The MSGSERVICEENTRY function is the message service entry point where the wrapped PST store provider is configured. The function calls GetMemAllocRoutines() to get the MAPI memory management routines. The function uses the lpProviderAdmin parameter to locate the profile section for the provider and sets the properties in the profile.
