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 a TWAIN data source, call the L_TwainSetCustomDSData function.

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