IVdsController::GetPortProperties method (vds.h)

[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]

Returns the properties of the specified controller port.

Syntax

HRESULT GetPortProperties(
  [in]  SHORT         sPortNumber,
  [out] VDS_PORT_PROP *pPortProp
);

Parameters

[in] sPortNumber

The number of the port. Port numbers are permanent. Ports are numbered from 0.

[out] pPortProp

The address of a VDS_PORT_PROP structure allocated and passed in by the caller. VDS allocates memory for the pwszFriendlyName and pwszIdentification member strings. Callers must free the strings by using the CoTaskMemFree function.

Return value

This method can return standard HRESULT values, such as E_INVALIDARG or E_OUTOFMEMORY, and VDS-specific return values. It can also return converted system error codes using the HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 macro. Errors can originate from VDS itself or from the underlying VDS provider that is being used. Possible return values include the following.
