NdisCoGetTapiCallId (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 x has been deprecated and is superseded by NDIS 6.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.
NdisCoGetTapiCallId retrieves a string that TAPI applications can use to identify a particular NDIS virtual connection (VC).
Syntax
NDIS_STATUS NdisCoGetTapiCallId(
_In_ NDIS_HANDLE NdisVcHandle,
_Inout_ PVAR_STRING TapiCallId
);
Parameters
NdisVcHandle [in]
Specifies the NDIS handle to the VC. This handle was supplied by NDIS when the VC was originally created with the NdisCoCreateVc function.TapiCallId [in, out]
Pointer to a caller-allocated buffer that receives a data structure of type VAR_STRING. Upon successful return, this structure describes a string that TAPI applications can use to identify the VC.
Return value
Returns one of the following status values:
Return code | Description |
---|---|
NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS | NDIS successfully returned a string identifier for the VC. |
NDIS_STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SHORT | The ulTotalSize member of the VAR_STRING structure specifies that the size of the buffer is not large enough to hold the string that identifies the VC. NdisCoGetTapiCallId sets the ulNeededSize member of the VAR_STRING structure to the required size in bytes. |
NDIS_STATUS_INVALID_DATA | The handle to the VC specified by NdisVcHandle is not valid. |
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 that identifies the VC. The client can pass this string identifier to a TAPI application to identify 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.
