   LPCSTR lpNewName
);

Parameters

pvContext

[in] The source control plug-in context structure.

hWnd

lpFileName

[in] The fully qualified file name of the file being renamed.

lpNewName

[in] The fully qualified new name. If the directory path is different, then the file has moved from one subdirectory to another.

Return Value

The source control plug-in implementation of this function is expected to return one of the following values:

Value Description
SCC_OK The renaming operation completed successfully.
SCC_E_PROJNOTOPEN The project is not open under source control.
SCC_E_FILENOTCONTROLLED The file is not under source control.
SCC_E_ACCESSFAILURE There was a problem accessing the source control system, probably due to network or contention issues.
