IFWXIOCompletion Interface
The IFWXIOCompletion interface includes a method that receives a notification from the Microsoft Firewall service when an asynchronous I/O send, sendto, or receive operation is completed on an IFWXSocket interface. These overlapped operations require that the filter implement this interface to carry out data pumping.
For more information about how the IFWXIOCompletion interface is used in application filters, see Filter Object Model.
Syntax
interface IFWXIOCompletion : IUnknown
When To Implement
An application filter that initiates overlapped operations by calling the asynchronous methods on an IFWXSocket interface must implement this notification interface.
Methods
The IFWXIOCompletion interface inherits the methods of the IUnknown interface.
In addition, IFWXIOCompletion defines the following method.
Method | Description |
---|---|
Receives a notification from the Firewall service when an asynchronous I/O operation that was initiated on an IFWXSocket interface completes. |
Remarks
When calling a method that begins an overlapped operation, the filter must pass a pointer to its IFWXIOCompletion interface to that method. The Firewall service calls CompleteAsyncIO on the IFWXIOCompletion interface of the filter when the overlapped operation completes.
Forefront TMG has two other notification methods for overlapped operations. The IFWXExternalIOCompletion::CompleteAsyncIO notification method is used for notification when a Windows overlapped operation completes, and the IFWXAcceptCompletion::CompleteAsyncAccept method is used for notification when the IFWXNetworkSocket::Accept method completes.
Requirements
Server | Requires Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2008 x64 Edition with SP2. |
Version | Requires Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG) 2010. |
Header | Declared in Wspfwext.idl. |
