L_TwainGetProperties

Summary

Gets the current or default values of the properties defined in the LTWAINPROPERTIES structure.

Syntax

#include "lttwn.h"

L_LTTWN_API L_INT L_TwainGetProperties (hSession, pltProperties, uStructSize, uFlags)

Parameters

HTWAINSESSION hSession

Handle to an existing TWAIN session. This handle is obtained by calling the L_TwainInitSession or L_TwainInitSession2 function.

pLTWAINPROPERTIES pltProperties

Pointer to a LTWAINPROPERTIES structure to be updated with the current or default properties. This must be a valid pointer for an LTWAINPROPERTIES structure.

L_UINT uStructSize

Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pltProperties, for versioning. Use sizeof(LTWAINPROPERTIES).

L_UINT uFlags

Flag that indicates the property values to get. Possible values are:

Value Meaning
LTWAIN_PROPERTIES_GETCURRENT [3] Get the current values.
LTWAIN_PROPERTIES_GETDEFAULT [4] Get the default values.

Returns

Value Meaning
SUCCESS The function was successful.
! = SUCCESS An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function must be called after L_TwainStartCapsNeg is called and before L_TwainEndCapsNeg is called.

This function lets the user get information on the properties contained in the LTWAINPROPERTIES structure. It is a high-level alternative to getting capabilities using the L_TwainGetCapability or L_TwainEnumCapabilities functions. For more information on getting and setting TWAIN capabilities, refer to Getting and Setting Capabilities.

To set properties, use the L_TwainSetProperties function.
