The GetFileInformationByHandle function retrieves information about a specified file.
BOOL GetFileInformationByHandle(
HANDLE hFile, |
// handle of file |
LPBY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION lpFileInformation |
// address of structure |
); |
This handle should not be a pipe handle. The GetFileInformationByHandle function
does not work with pipe handles.
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
Depending on the underlying network components of the operating system and the type of server connected to, the GetFileInformationByHandle function may fail, return partial information, or full information for the given file. In general, you should not use GetFileInformationByHandle unless your application is intended to be run on a limited set of operating system configurations.
