SafeArrayAllocDescriptor (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

This function allocates memory for a safearray descriptor, allowing the creation of safearrays that contain elements with data types other than those provided by SafeArrayCreate.

HRESULT SafeArrayAllocDescriptor(unsigned intcDims,SAFEARRAY FAR* FAR* ppsaOut );

Parameters

  • cDims
    [in] Number of dimensions of the array.
  • ppsaOut
    [out] Pointer to a location in which to store the created array descriptor.

Return Values

Returns the HRESULT values shown in the following table.

Value Description
S_OK Success.
E_INVALIDARG The psa parameter was not a valid safearray descriptor.
E_UNEXPECTED The array could not be locked.

Remarks

This function allows the creation of safearrays that contain elements with data types other than those provided by SafeArrayCreate.

After creating an array descriptor using SafeArrayAllocDescriptor, set the element size in the array descriptor and call SafeArrayAllocData to allocate memory for the array elements.

Passing invalid (and under some circumstances NULL) pointers to this function causes an unexpected termination of the application.

Example

The following code example creates a safearray using the SafeArrayAllocDescriptor and SafeArrayAllocData functions.

SAFEARRAY FAR* FAR*ppsa;
unsigned int ndim = 2;
HRESULT HRESULT = SafeArrayAllocDescriptor( ndim, ppsa );
if( FAILED( HRESULT ) )
  return ERR_OutOfMemory;
(*ppsa)->rgsabound[ 0 ].lLbound = 0;
(*ppsa)->rgsabound[ 0 ].cElements = 5;
(*ppsa)->rgsabound[ 1 ].lLbound = 1;
(*ppsa)->rgsabound[ 1 ].cElements = 4;
HRESULT = SafeArrayAllocData( *ppsa );
if( FAILED( HRESULT ) ) {
  SafeArrayDestroyDescriptor( *ppsa )
  return ERR_OutOfMemory;
}

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE 2.0 and later.
Header: Oleauto.h.
Link Library: Oleaut32.lib.
