#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LFile::GetInfo(pFileInfo, uStructSize, uFlags=FILEINFO_TOTALPAGES, pLoadFileOption=NULL)

pFILEINFO pFileInfo;	/* pointer to a FILEINFO structure to be filled */
L_UINT uStructSize;	/* size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pFileInfo */
L_UINT uFlags;	/* flag that indicates whether to update the TotalPages field in the FILEINFO structure */
pLOADFILEOPTION pLoadFileOption;	/* pointer to optional extended load options */

uStructSize	Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pFileInfo. Use sizeof(FILEINFO).
uFlags	Flag that indicates whether to update the TotalPages field in the FILEINFO structure. Possible values are:
	Value	Meaning
	FILEINFO_TOTALPAGES	[0x0001] Update the pFileInfo->TotalPages field with the total number of pages in the file.

Comments

To use this function, do the following:

1.	Declare a variable with the datatype of FILEINFO.
2.	Declare and assign a character string variable for the file name.
3.	If you are getting information about a multipage file (which can contain more than one image), use the LOADFILEOPTION structure to specify the page number. The information that you get will be for the image on the specified page.
4.	Initialize the FILEINFO structure to zero values.
5.	Call the LFile::GetInfo function, passing the file name and the address of the FILEINFO variable as parameters.
6.	Get the image information from the fields described in FILEINFO structure.

For a summary of file information functions, refer to Getting and Setting File Information.

Note:	More options are available in the LOADFILEOPTION structure.
