Important The Native 802.11 Wireless LAN interface is deprecated in Windows 10 and later. Please use the WLAN Device Driver Interface (WDI) instead. For more information about WDI, see WLAN Universal Windows driver model.

The operating system calls the IDot11ExtUIProperty::Dot11ExtUIPropertySetSelected method after the end user changes settings within the connectivity or security properties extension supported by the Native 802.11 IHV UI Extensions DLL.

Syntax

HRESULT Dot11ExtUIPropertySetSelected(
  [in]  BSTR                 bstrIHVProfile,
  [in]  PDOT11EXT_IHV_PARAMS pIHVProfileParams,
  [out] BSTR*                bstrModifiedIHVProfile,
  [out] BOOL*                pbIsModified
);

Parameters

bstrIHVProfile [in]
The XML fragment that contains the IHV-defined data from the current profile data. This fragment is bounded by the <IHV> and </IHV> XML tags. For more information about the format of the Native 802.11 profile data, refer to the documentation within the Microsoft Windows SDK.
pIHVProfileParams [in]
The parameters of the current security profile, formatted as a DOT11EXT_IHV_PROFILE_PARAMS structure.
bstrModifiedIHVProfile [out]
A pointer to a string buffer allocated by the Native 802.11 IHV UI Extensions DLL. This string buffer contains the modified profile data for the property extension.
pbIsModified [out]
A pointer to a Boolean variable. The IDot11ExtUIProperty::Dot11ExtUIPropertySetSelected method must set * pbIsModified to TRUE if it is returning modified profile data through the bstrModifiedIHVProfile parameter.

Return value

If the call succeeds, the method returns S_OK.

If the call fails, the method returns the appropriate error code defined in Winerror.h.

Remarks

The IDot11ExtUIProperty::Dot11ExtUIPropertySetSelected method allows the Native 802.11 IHV UI Extensions DLL to save and revise the current end user settings made to a property extension that is displayed through the Native 802.11 Network Configuration UI. For more information about the Native 802.11 Network Configuration UI, see Native 802.11 Software Architecture.

The following points apply to the modified profile data that is passed through the bstrIHVProfile parameter of the IDot11ExtUIProperty::Dot11ExtUIPropertySetSelected method:

If the Native 802.11 IHV UI Extensions DLL makes changes to the profile data for the property page extension, it must allocate a string buffer that contains the modified profile data. In this situation, the DLL returns the address of the string buffer through the bstrModifiedIHVProfile parameter and sets * pbIsModified to TRUE.

The operating system passes a pointer to the modified profile data to the bstrIHVProfile parameter in subsequent calls to the IDot11ExtUIProperty::DisplayDot11ExtUIProperty method for the property extension.
If the Native 802.11 IHV UI Extensions DLL does not need to make changes to the profile data, it must set bstrModifiedIHVProfile to NULL and * pbIsModified to FALSE.
