WSALookupServiceEnd (Windows Sockets) (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

Syntax

INT WSALookupServiceEnd(
  HANDLE hLookup
);

Parameters

Return Value

If the operation was successful, the return value is zero. If an error occurs, the value SOCKET_ERROR is returned, and a specific error number can be retrieved by calling the WSAGetLastError function. The following table shows a list of possible error codes.

Error code

Description

WSA_INVALID_HANDLE

The handle is not valid.

WSANOTINITIALIZED

Ws2.dll has not been initialized. The application must first call the WSAStartup function before calling any Windows Sockets functions.

WSA NOT ENOUGH MEMORY

There was insufficient memory to perform the operation.

Remarks

If you call this function from another thread while an existing WSALookupServiceNext (Windows Sockets) is blocked, the end call will have the same effect as a cancel and will cause the WSALookupServiceNext call to return immediately.

Notes for Bluetooth

Bluetooth clients use WSALookupServiceBegin (Windows Sockets), WSALookupServiceNext (Windows Sockets), and WSALookupServiceEnd to discover the existence of a particular service on the Bluetooth RFCOMM server. Queries can be done for local and remote addresses, although for RFCOMM a client can connect only to remote addresses.
