SetStandardColorSpaceProfile

The SetStandardColorSpaceProfile function registers a specified profile for a given standard color space. The profile can be queried using GetStandardColorSpaceProfile.

BOOL WINAPI SetStandardColorSpaceProfile(
  PCTSTR pMachineName,  DWORD dwProfileID,  PCSTR pProfilename);

Parameters

  • pMachineName
    Reserved. Must be NULL. This parameter is intended to point to the name of the machine on which to set a standard color space profile. A NULL pointer indicates the local machine.
  • dwProfileID
    Specifies the ID value of the standard color space that the given profile represents.
  • pProfilename
    Points to a fully qualified path to the profile file.

Return Values

If this function succeeds, the return value is TRUE.

If this function fails, the return value is FALSE. For extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

The profile must already be installed on the system before it can be registered for a standard color space.

This function supports Windows Color System (WCS) device model profiles (DMPs) in addition to International Color Consortium (ICC) profiles. It does not support WCS CAMP or GMMP profiles and will return an error if such profiles are used.

Per-user/LUA support

This will register a specified profile for a given standard color space only for current user.

This uses WcsSetDefaultColorProfile with WCS_PROFILE_MANAGEMENT_SCOPE_CURRENT_USER.

This is executable in LUA context if the profile is already installed, fails otherwise with access denied since install is system-wide and requires administrator privileges.

Requirements

**  Windows Vista:** Support for WCS profiles included in Windows Vista and later.
**  Windows NT/2000/XP:** Support for ICC profiles included in Windows 2000 and later.
**  Windows 95/98/Me:** Support for ICC profiles included in Windows 98 and later.
**  Header:** Declared in Icm.h.
**  Library:** Use Mscms.lib.
**  Unicode:** Implemented as Unicode and ANSI versions on Windows 2000/XP/Vista.
