ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency function (resapi.h)
Enumerates the dependencies of a specified resource in the local cluster and returns a handle to a dependency of a specified resource type. The PRESUTIL_GET_RESOURCE_NAME_DEPENDENCY type defines a pointer to this function.
Syntax
HRESOURCE ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency(
[in] LPCWSTR lpszResourceName,
[in] LPCWSTR lpszResourceType
);
Parameters
[in] lpszResourceName
Null-terminated Unicode string specifying the name of the dependent resource. This resource depends on one or more resources.
[in] lpszResourceType
Null-terminated Unicode string specifying the resource type of the dependency to return.
Return value
If the operation succeeds, the function returns a handle to one of the resources on which the resource specified by lpszResourceName depends. The caller is responsible for closing the handle by calling CloseClusterResource.
If the operation fails, the function returns NULL. For more information, call the function GetLastError.
Remarks
The ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency, ResUtilGetResourceDependency, and ResUtilGetResourceDependencyByName functions are very similar in that they all provide access to dependencies of a particular resource type. The following table summarizes the differences between the functions.
Function | How the dependent resource is specified | Requires cluster handle |
---|---|---|
ResUtilGetResourceDependency | Resource handle | No |
ResUtilGetResourceDependencyByName | Resource handle | Yes |
ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency | Resource name | No |
Do not call ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency from any resource DLL entry point function. ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency can safely be called from a worker thread. For more information, see Function Calls to Avoid in Resource DLLs.
Examples
As the following example illustrates, if you know that resource A depends on a Physical Disk resource, you can use ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency to obtain a handle to the dependency.
// String initialization and error checking omitted.
HRESOURCE hResD = ResUtilGetResourceNameDependency(
L"Resource_A_Name",
L"Physical Disk" );
// Close handles and free memory.
