#include "ltwia.h"

L_LTWIA_API L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_WiaSetPropertyString(hSession, pItem, pszID, uID, pszValue)

Sets a string value for any WIA property of type VT_BSTR that is not Read only.

Parameters

HWIASESSION hSession

Handle to an existing WIA session. This handle is obtained by calling the L_WiaInitSession function.

L_VOID* pItem

Valid pointer to a type IWiaItem or IWiaItem2 object (IWiaItem if using WIA Version 1.0; IWiaItem2 if using WIA Version 2.0), which represents the item having the property.

You can retrieve this parameter by either calling the L_WiaGetRootItem function to get a pointer to the device's root item or by enumerating the child items of the device through a call to L_WiaEnumChildItems.

L_TCHAR* pszID

This string pointer should contain the equivalent property ID string for the WIA property ID (see example below):

Property ID	Property ID Equivalent String
WIA_IPA_TYMED	WIA_IPA_TYMED_STR or "Media Type"
WIA_IPA_DEPTH	WIA_IPA_DEPTH_STR or "Bits Per Pixel"

If this parameter is NULL then the WIA toolkit will use the ID passed through the uID parameter, otherwise the pszID parameter will be used whether or not you passed valid property ID through the uID parameter.

L_UINT32 uID

The property ID of the property.

This parameter is required only if the pszID parameter is NULL, otherwise you can pass 0 for this parameter.

L_TCHAR* pszValue

Pointer to allocated string buffer to be used to set the value of the provided items property ID.
