CONVCONTEXT structure (ddeml.h)
Contains information supplied by a Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) client application. The information is useful for specialized or cross-language DDE conversations.
Syntax
typedef struct tagCONVCONTEXT {
UINT cb;
UINT wFlags;
UINT wCountryID;
int iCodePage;
DWORD dwLangID;
DWORD dwSecurity;
SECURITY_QUALITY_OF_SERVICE qos;
} CONVCONTEXT, *PCONVCONTEXT;
Members
cb
Type: UINT
The structure's size, in bytes.
wFlags
Type: UINT
The conversation context flags. Currently, no flags are defined for this member.
wCountryID
Type: UINT
The country/region code identifier for topic-name and item-name strings.
iCodePage
Type: int
The code page for topic-name and item-name strings. Non-multilingual clients should set this member to CP_WINANSI. Unicode clients should set this value to CP_WINUNICODE.
dwLangID
Type: DWORD
The language identifier for topic-name and item-name strings.
dwSecurity
Type: DWORD
A private (application-defined) security code.
qos
Type: SECURITY_QUALITY_OF_SERVICE
The quality of service a DDE client wants from the system during a given conversation. The quality of service level specified lasts for the duration of the conversation. It cannot be changed once the conversation is started.
Remarks
Security Warning
For added security, your application can specify a security code with the dwSecurity member. The application could then examine this value in the DdeCallback function to check the identity of the client application. However, a value that is hard-coded into an application might be discovered. Thus, you may want to provide the security code in some other way, such as through user input.Requirements
