GetPropertyGuid Method

Summary

Retrieves the Guid structure for any WIA property of type WiaVariableTypes.Clsid .

Syntax

C#
VB
C++
public Guid GetPropertyGuid(  
   object item, 
   string propertyIdName, 
   Leadtools.Wia.WiaPropertyId propertyId 
) 
Public Function GetPropertyGuid( _ 
   ByVal item As Object, _ 
   ByVal propertyIdName As String, _ 
   ByVal propertyId As Leadtools.Wia.WiaPropertyId _ 
) As Guid 
public: 
Guid GetPropertyGuid(  
   Object^ item, 
   String^ propertyIdName, 
   Leadtools.Wia.WiaPropertyId propertyId 
) 

Parameters

item
Handle to the item which represents the item having the property. You can retrieve this parameter by either calling the GetRootItem method to get the device's root item itself or by enumerating the child items of the device through a call to EnumChildItems method.

propertyIdName
This string should contain the equivalent property Id string for the WIA property ID. Use the see GetPropertyIdString method to get this string for the property ID.

If you passed null for this parameter then the WIA toolkit will use the property ID passed through the third parameter

propertyId**; otherwise this parameters will be used whether or not you passed valid property ID through the propertyId parameter

propertyId*; otherwise this parameters will be used whether or not you passed valid property ID through the propertyId parameter

This parameter is required only if the second parameter "propertyIdName"is null; otherwise you can pass 0 for this parameter.

Return Value

The WIA GUID value.

Remarks

Any WIA property of type WiaVariableTypes.Clsid (for example, WiaPropertyId.ItemFormat ) returns a Guid structure. In order to retrieve this type of properties you need to call the function GetPropertyGuid.

For more information, refer to Managing WIA Sources.
