BTH_HCI_IOCTL_GET_HANDLE_FOR_BD

  • Article

This IOCTL retrieves the connection handle for a Bluetooth device if it is connected.

Parameters

  • hDeviceContext
    [in] Device context handle.

  • fSelector
    [in] Equals BTH_HCI_IOCTL_GET_HANDLE_FOR_BD.

  • cInBuffer
    [in] Equals sizeof(BD_ADDR)+1.

  • pInBuffer
    [in] Must be an aligned pointer to the BD_ADDR structure followed by the 0-based order number — 1 byte — of the handle to retrieve. The order number allows you to enumerate all connection handles for the peer represented by the Bluetooth address, including SCO connections. To perform this enumeration, call the IOCTL with the order number starting at 0, and then increase it by 1 until an error is returned.

  • cOutBuffer
    [in] Equals 2.

  • pOutBuffer
    [in] Must be an aligned pointer to an unsigned short handle.

    [out] Contains the connection handle.

  • pcDataReturned
    [out] Equals cOutBuffer.
