GetFileInformationByHandle info  Overview  Group


The GetFileInformationByHandle function retrieves information about a specified file.

BOOL GetFileInformationByHandle(

    HANDLE hFile, 

// handle of file

    LPBY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION lpFileInformation 

// address of structure

   );

Parameters

hFile
Handle to the file that you want to obtain information about.

This handle should not be a pipe handle. The GetFileInformationByHandle function does not work with pipe handles.

lpFileInformation
Points to a BY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION structure that receives the file information. The structure can be used in subsequent calls to GetFileInformationByHandle to refer to the information about the file.

Return Values

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.

Remarks

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.

Robotics nuts!

Check out http://users.frii.com/dlc/robotics/projects/botproj.htm from Dennis Clark. This guy ROCKS! He has made (and sells but also releases code, docs, etc...) for a number of cool little robotic modules including whiskers, IR proximity detect and remote control, Sonar proximity detect, PWM, Servo, compass. Most of these use the little PIC 12C508 controller which costs basically nothing and is soooo tiny.
The 4 servos, 2400 baud serial servo controller is a wonder of magic and he sells the programmed chip for $8. Wow!
