Parameter

Description

hSession

Handle to an existing TWAIN session. This handle is obtained by calling the L_TwainInitSession function.

pCustomData

Pointer to a TW_CUSTOMDSDATA structure. This structure must be allocated and it will be filled with custom data source data. For more information refer to the TWAIN 1.9 specification from the site "http://www.twain.org/".

pszFileName

Character string that contains file name to save the custom data of TWAIN data source to. Pass NULL to not save the data to a file.

Returns

SUCCESS

The function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function should be called after calling the L_TwainStartCapsNeg function and before calling the L_TwainEndCapsNeg function.

To update the custom data of TWAIN data source, call the L_TwainSetCustomDSData function.

To save the custom data of TWAIN data source to a file, pass valid file name to the pszFileName. If you pass NULL, the data will return only to pCustomData. Also, you should pass valid pointer to TW_CUSTOMDSDATA to pCustomData.
