CInternetConnection::GetContext

DWORD GetContext( ) const;

Return Value

The application-assigned context ID.

Remarks

Call this member function to get the context ID for this session. The context ID is originally specified in CInternetSession and propagates to CInternetConnection- and CInternetFile-derived classes, unless specified differently in the call to a function that opens the connection. The context ID is associated with any operation of the given object and identifies the operation’s status information returned by CInternetSession::OnStatusCallback.

For more information about how GetContext works with other WinInet classes to give the user status information, see the article for more information about the context identifier.
