Description

uStructSize

Size of the structure. This must be set before passing this structure to the LEAD functions.

nOffset

Position of the first byte to load. This must be set before passing this structure to the LEAD functions. Typically, this is set to 0.

nVersion

Version of the annotation file. If '13' is returned, this refers to version 13 or earlier.

nTotalPages

The total number of pages in the annotation file.

nReserved

Reserved for future use.

Comments

The ANNFILEINFO structure is updated by the LAnnContainer::FileInfo, LAnnContainer::FileInfoMemory and LAnnContainer::FileInfoOffset functions with information about an annotation file. Before passing this structure to any of the LEAD functions, the nSize and nOffset fields must be filled.
