ClfsScanLogContainers function (wdm.h)
The ClfsScanLogContainers routine retrieves descriptive information for a sequence of containers that belong to a particular CLFS log.
Syntax
CLFSUSER_API NTSTATUS ClfsScanLogContainers(
[in, out] PCLFS_SCAN_CONTEXT pcxScan,
[in] CLFS_SCAN_MODE eScanMode
);
Parameters
[in, out] pcxScan
A pointer to a CLFS_SCAN_CONTEXT structure. The caller previously allocated the structure and initialized it by calling ClfsCreateScanContext. In particular, the pInfoContainer member was initialized to point to an array of CLFS_CONTAINER_INFORMATION structures, and the cContainers member was initialized to the number of elements in the array. On return, the structures in the array receive descriptive information for the containers in the sequence.
[in] eScanMode
A set of flags that specify the direction of the scan and whether the scan context should be closed. The following flags are available to callers of this routine.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| CLFS_SCAN_FORWARD | Scan in the forward direction. For example, if container 5 is the most recently scanned container and pxcScan->cContainers is equal to two, this routine will return descriptors for containers 6 and 7. |
| CLFS_SCAN_BACKWARD | Scan in the backward direction. For example, if container 5 is the most recently scanned container and pxcScan->cContainers is equal to two, this routine will return descriptors for containers 4 and 3. |
| CLFS_SCAN_CLOSE | Free all resources associated with the scan context pointed to by pcxScan. |
If the CLFS_SCAN_CLOSE flag is set, both the CLFS_SCAN_FORWARD and CLFS_SCAN_BACKWARD flags must be clear.
If the CLFS_SCAN_CLOSE flag is clear, only one of the direction flags (CLFS_SCAN_FORWARD or CLFS_SCAN_BACKWARD) must be set.
Return value
ClfsScanLogContainers returns STATUS_SUCCESS if it succeeds; otherwise, it returns one of the error codes defined in Ntstatus.h.
Remarks
CLFS uses the CLFS_SCAN_CONTEXT structure to track where a container scan starts (the cIndex member) and how many containers are scanned in each call to ClfsScanLogContainers. The value N of the cContainers member specifies that each time ClfsScanLogContainers is called, the next N containers are scanned.
The cContainersReturned member of the CLFS_SCAN_CONTEXT structure receives the number of containers actually scanned in a single call to ClfsScanLogContainers.
When ClfsScanLogContainers returns STATUS_NO_MORE_ENTRIES, there are no more containers to be scanned.
When you have finished using the scan context pointed to by pcxScan, you must call ClfsScanLogContainers, with eScanMode equal to CLFS_SCAN_CLOSE, to free any resources associated with the scan context.
