Members

pb

Pointer to a buffer containing an array of bytes.

pw

Pointer to a buffer containing an array of WORD values.

pdw

Pointer to a buffer containing an array of DWORD values.

psz

Pointer to a buffer containing a null-terminated Unicode string value.

pList

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_LIST structure describing the beginning of a property list.

pSyntax

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_SYNTAX structure describing the format and type of a value.

pName

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_PROPERTY_NAME structure containing a property name value.

pValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_VALUE structure describing the format, type, and length of a data value.

pBinaryValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_BINARY structure containing a binary data value.

pDwordValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_DWORD structure containing a numeric data value.

pULargeIntegerValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_ULARGE_INTEGER structure containing an unsigned large integer value.

pStringValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_SZ structure containing a null-terminated Unicode string value.

pMultiSzValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_MULTI_SZ structure containing multiple null-terminated Unicode string values.

pResourceClassValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_RESOURCE_CLASS structure containing a resource class value.

pResourceClassInfoValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_RESOURCE_CLASS_INFO structure containing a resource class information value.

pDiskSignatureValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_DISK_SIGNATURE structure containing a disk signature value.

pScsiAddressValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_SCSI_ADDRESS structure containing a SCSI address value.

pDiskNumberValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_DISK_NUMBER structure containing a disk number value.

pPartitionInfoValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_PARTITION_INFO structure containing a partition information value.

pRequiredDependencyValue

Pointer to a CLUSPROP_REQUIRED_DEPENDENCY structure containing a resource dependency value.

Remarks

The CLUSPROP_BUFFER_HELPER structure is useful in working with property and value lists because it eliminates the need to cast to the appropriate data type.

An alternate structure, RESUTIL_PROPERTY_ITEM, can also be used to work with multiple properties.
