ISCard::Transaction method

[The Transaction method is available for use in the operating systems specified in the Requirements section. The Smart Card Modules provide similar functionality.]

The Transaction method executes a write and read operation on the smart card command (application protocol data unit) object. The reply string from the smart card for the command string defined in the card that was sent to the smart card will be accessible after this function returns.

Syntax

HRESULT Transaction(
  [in, out] LPSCARDCMD *ppCmd
);

Parameters

ppCmd [in, out]

A pointer to the smart card command object.

Return value

The method returns one of the following possible values.

Return code Description
S_OK
The operation completed successfully.
E_INVALIDARG
The ppCmd parameter is not valid.
E_POINTER
A bad pointer was passed in ppCmd.
E_OUTOFMEMORY
Memory to satisfy the request is unavailable.

 

Remarks

In addition to the COM error codes listed above, this interface may return a smart card error code if a smart card function was called to complete the request. For more information, see Smart Card Return Values.

Examples

The following example shows executing a write and read operation on the smart card command object.

HRESULT    hr;

// pISCard is a pointer to an instance of ISCard.
// pISCardCmd is a pointer to an instance of ISCardCmd,
// and ISCardCmd::BuildCmd has already been called.
hr = pISCard->Transaction(&pISCardCmd);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
    printf("Failed ISCard::Transaction\n");
    // Take other error handling action as needed.
}
