FIO_CONTEXT

FIO_CONTEXT

The FIO_CONTEXT structure defines a context object used to represent file handles. The AssociateFile function returns a pointer to an instance of this structure given a file HANDLE created using CreateFile using the FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED dwFlagsAndAttributes flag.

Syntax

struct  FIO_CONTEXT {
  DWORD   m_dwTempHack ;       // not used. Set to NULL
  DWORD   m_dwSignature ;      // context signature
  HANDLE  m_hFile ;            // file handle (FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED)
  DWORD   m_dwLinesOffset;     // The offset to back fill Lines header
  DWORD   m_dwHeaderLength;    //  Header length (NNTP only)
};
typedef  FIO_CONTEXT*  PFIO_CONTEXT ;

Members

  • m_dwTempHack
    Not used. Set to NULL.
  • m_dwSignature
    A context signature used to identify the origin of the object.
  • m_hFile
    A file HANDLE created with the FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED option.
  • m_dwLinesOffset
    The offset used to back-fill Lines header (NNTP only).
  • m_dwHeaderLength
    The header length (NNTP only).

Remarks

The FIO_CONTEXT structure is used with various MailMsg object file I/O operations. It essentially wraps a file HANDLE created with the CreateFile function. Use the AssociateFile function to create this structure for use with the MailMsg object.

Requirements

  Windows NT/2000: Requires Windows 2000.   Windows 95/98: Unsupported.   Header: Declared in filehc.h; include filehc.h.
