Members

  • ulPropTag
    Property tag for the property. Property tags are 32-bit unsigned integers consisting of the property's unique identifier in the high-order 16 bits and the property's type in the low-order 16 bits.

  • dwAlignPad
    Reserved for MAPI; do not use.

  • Value
    Union of data values, the specific value dictated by the property type. The following table lists for each property type, the member of the union that should be used and its associated data type.

Remarks

The ulPropTag member is made up of two parts:

  • An identifier in the high-order 16 bits.

  • A type in the low-order 16 bits.

The identifier is a numeric value within a particular range. MAPI defines ranges for identifiers to describe what the property is used for and who is responsible for maintaining it. MAPI defines constraints for each of the property tags that it supports in the Mapitags.h header file.

The type indicates the format for the property's value. MAPI defines constants for each of the property types that it supports in the Mapidefs.h header file.

For a complete list of the valid property ranges for identifiers and property types, see the Property Identifiers and Types appendix.

The dwAlignPad member is used as padding to make sure proper alignment on computers that require 8-byte alignment for 8-byte values. Developers who write code on such computers should use memory allocation routines that allocate the SPropValue arrays on 8-byte boundaries.
