SetupDiGetSelectedDevice function (setupapi.h)

The SetupDiGetSelectedDevice function retrieves the selected device information element in a device information set.

Syntax

WINSETUPAPI BOOL SetupDiGetSelectedDevice(
  [in]  HDEVINFO         DeviceInfoSet,
  [out] PSP_DEVINFO_DATA DeviceInfoData
);

Parameters

[in] DeviceInfoSet

A handle to the device information set for which to retrieve the selected device information element.

[out] DeviceInfoData

A pointer to an SP_DEVINFO_DATA structure that receives information about the selected device information element for DeviceInfoSet.

Return value

The function returns TRUE if it is successful. Otherwise, it returns FALSE and the logged error can be retrieved with a call to GetLastError.
