  • Article

3/26/2014

This method opens an existing stream object within this storage object according to the specified access mode.

Syntax

HRESULT OpenStream( 
  const WCHAR* pwcsName, 
  void* reserved1, 
  DWORD grfMode, 
  DWORD reserved2, 
  IStream** ppstm 
);

Parameters

  • pwcsName
    [in] Pointer to a wide character string that contains the name of the stream to open.
  • reserved1
    [in] Reserved; set to NULL.
  • grfMode
    [in] Access mode to be assigned to the open stream. See the STGM enumeration values for descriptions of the possible values. Whatever other modes you may choose, you must at least specify STGM_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE when calling this method.
  • reserved2
    [in] Reserved; set to 0 (zero).

  • ppstm
    [out] Address of IStream* pointer variable that receives the interface pointer to the newly-opened stream object.

    If an error occurs, *ppstm must be set to NULL.

Return Value

The following table shows the return values for this method.

Value

Description

S_OK

The stream was successfully opened.

E_PENDING

Asynchronous Storage only: Part or all of the stream's data is currently unavailable.

For more information see the IFillLockBytes interface and Asynchronous Storage.

STG_E_ACCESSDENIED

Insufficient permissions to open stream.

STG_E_FILENOTFOUND

The stream with specified name does not exist.

STG_E_INSUFFICIENTMEMORY

The stream was not opened due to a lack of memory.

STG_E_INVALIDFLAG

The value specified for the grfMode flag is not a valid STGM enumeration value.

STG_E_INVALIDFUNCTION

The specified combination of grfMode flags is not supported. For example, if this method is called without the STGM_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE flag.

STG_E_INVALIDNAME

Invalid value for pwcsName.

STG_E_INVALIDPOINTER

The pointer specified for the stream object was invalid.

STG_E_INVALIDPARAMETER

One of the parameters was invalid.

STG_E_REVERTED

The storage object has been invalidated by a revert operation above it in the transaction tree.

STG_E_TOOMANYOPENFILES

The stream was not opened because there are too many open files.

Remarks

IStorage::OpenStream opens an existing stream object within this storage object in the access mode specified in grfMode.

There are restrictions on the permissions that can be given in grfMode. For example, the permissions on this storage object restrict the permissions on its streams.

In general, access restrictions on streams should be stricter than those on their parent storages.

Compound-file streams must be opened with STGM_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE.
