IMDSPStorage::GetName
The GetName method retrieves the display name of the storage object.
Syntax
HRESULT GetName(LPWSTRpwszName,UINTnMaxChars);
Parameters
pwszName
[out] Pointer to a (Unicode) wide-character null-terminated string containing the object name.
nMaxChars
[in] Integer containing the maximum number of characters that can be copied to the name string.
Return Values
The method returns an HRESULT. All the interface methods in Windows Media Device Manager can return any of the following classes of error codes:
- Standard COM error codes
- Windows error codes converted to HRESULT values
- Windows Media Device Manager error codes
For an extenstive list of possible error codes, see Error Codes.
Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.
Return code | Description |
S_OK | The method succeeded. |
WMDM_E_BUFFERTOOSMALL | The buffer specified is too small for the return string. Check nMaxChars for the required buffer size. |
E_INVALIDARG | The pwszName parameter is an invalid or NULL pointer. |
E_FAIL | An unspecified error occurred. |
Remarks
The display name of the object is the file name without path information. In hierarchical media the display name would be concatenated with the ancestor instances of IMDSPStorage interfaces to create a full path-qualified name.
The LPWSTR string type is a 16-bit Unicode character string and does not accept byte-sized characters.
This method must be implemented. It must not return WMDM_E_NOTSUPPORTED or E_NOTIMPL. For more information, see Mandatory and Optional Interfaces.
