Remarks

The OBJECT_NOTIFICATION structure is one of the members of the union of structures included in the info member of the NOTIFICATION structure. When the info member of a NOTIFICATION structure contains an OBJECT_NOTIFICATION structure, the ulEventType member of the NOTIFICATION structure is set to one of the following types of events:

• fnevObjectCreated

• fnevObjectModified

• fnevObjectDeleted

• fnevObjectMoved

• fnevObjectCopied

• fnevSearchComplete

The search complete event, represented by the fnevSearchComplete event type, indicates that the initial search of the domain for one search folder has completed.

The following members that contain information about the original object are used only in move and copy events.

• cbOldID

• lpOldID

• cbOldParentID

• lpOldParentID

These members do not apply to the other types of events.
