Remarks
The FaxEnumJobs function returns a list of fax jobs on the fax server of interest, as well as information available about each job. A fax administration application typically calls this function to display the fax job queue for administrative or query purposes. For more information, see Managing Fax Jobs.
The FaxEnumJobs function allocates the memory required for the FAX_JOB_ENTRY buffer array pointed to by the JobEntry parameter. An application must call the FaxFreeBuffer function to deallocate the resources associated with this parameter. For more information, see Freeing Fax Resources.
Note
The winfax.h header defines FaxEnumJobs as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
