LTwain::CreateNumericContainerRange

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LTwain::CreateNumericContainerRange (pCapability, Type, uMinValue, uMaxValue, uStepSize, uDefaultValue, uCurrentValue)

TW_CAPABILITY * pCapability;	/* pointer to a structure */
LTWAINNUMERICTYPE Type;	/* container type */
L_UINT32 uMinValue;	/* minimum range value */
L_UINT32 uMaxValue;	/* maximum range value */
L_UINT32 uStepSize;	/* step size of the range */
L_UINT32 uDefaultValue;	/* range default value */
L_UINT32 uCurrentValue;	/* range current value */

Allocates the hContainer member of the TW_CAPABILITY structure to be type TW_RANGE and fills it with the appropriate data.

Parameter	Description
pCapability	Pointer to a structure that contains the capability container to allocate as type TW_RANGE.
Type	Type of data contained in the TW_RANGE container. For a list of possible values, refer to LTWAINNUMERICTYPE.
uMinValue	The minimum value of the range.
uMaxValue	The maximum value of the range.
uStepSize	The step size value of the range.
uDefaultValue	The default value of the range.
uCurrentValue	The current value of the range.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

When enumerating and getting capabilities, the toolkit takes care of creating the necessary TW_CAPABILITY containers. However, if the user wants to set a capability using the LTwain::SetCapability function, he or she must declare a TW_CAPABILITY container of the appropriate type (TW_ARRAY, TW_ENUMERATION, TW_RANGE, or TW_ONEVALUE).

The step size is the amount of increase from one step to the next within the range uMinVal to uMaxVal. For example, if uMinValue = 0, uMaxValue = 100, and uStepSize = 2, then it will take 50 steps to increase from 0 to 100.
