Dear Dochelp, In MS-RPRN, section : 3.1.4.1.2 Dynamically Typed Query Parameters.
the text reads: ------------------------------------------------------------ 3.1.4.1.2 Dynamically Typed Query Parameters Unless notified otherwise, methods returning one or more dynamically-typed values use a common API pattern, in which the caller passes in the following parameters: BUFFER: A buffer into which the server copies the requested dynamically-typed values. The term "BUFFER" is used here as a placeholder. Each method section defines which of its parameters is the pointer to the buffer. pType: An optional pointer to a variable that receives a code that indicates the type of data that is stored in the specified value. For a list of possible type values, see section 2.2.3.9. nSize or cbData: The size, in bytes, of the buffer. This value can be larger than the required size for the requested dynamically-typed values. pcbNeeded or pcbData: A pointer to a variable into which the server copies the number of bytes between the start of BUFFER and the last byte written by the server into BUFFER, both inclusive; or the required size of the buffer, in bytes, if the value of cbBuf is smaller than the size of the data to return to the caller. For methods capable of returning more than one dynamically-typed value, the caller also passes in: pcReturned: A pointer to a variable into which the server copies the number of dynamically-typed values that were written to the buffer, if the buffer was large enough to hold them. The individual method sections include the following parameter validation steps by reference: The server MUST verify that the value of cbBuf is not smaller than the number of bytes required to hold the dynamically-typed values to be written to the buffer. If that verification fails, the server MUST write the number of bytes required into the variable that is pointed to by pcbNeeded and return ERROR_MORE_DATA. If the value of cbBuf is not zero, the server MUST verify that a non-NULL pointer to the buffer was passed in. If that verification fails, the server MUST return ERROR_INVALID_USER_BUFFER. ------------------------------------------------------------ I believe the references to the variable name "cbBuf" in the above are incorrect, and should be replaced with "nSize" or with "cbData". There is no variable name cbBuf defined in this section. It appears to be a cut-and-paste error from "3.1.4.1.7 String Query Parameters", which does define the "cbBuf" variable name. Please let me know if this is correct. Thanks, Jeremy. _______________________________________________ cifs-protocol mailing list [email protected] https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/cifs-protocol
