RASCONNSTATUS (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This structure describes the current status of a remote access connection. It is returned by the RasGetConnectStatus function.

Syntax

typedef struct _RASCONNSTATUS { 
  DWORD dwSize; 
  RASCONNSTATE rasconnstate; 
  DWORD dwError; 
  TCHAR szDeviceType[ RAS_MaxDeviceType + 1 ]; 
  TCHAR szDeviceName[ RAS_MaxDeviceName + 1 ]; 
} RASCONNSTATUS;

Members

  • dwSize
    Specifies the structure size, in bytes.
  • rasconnstate
    Specifies a RASCONNSTATE enumerator value that indicates the current state of the RasDial connection process; that is, the piece of the RasDial process that is currently executing.

    The following table shows the two state values that are especially significant.

    Value Description

    RASCS_Connected

    Indicates that the connection has been successfully established.

    RASCS_Disconnected

    Indicates that the connection has failed.

  • dwError
    If nonzero, specifies the reason for failure. The value is one of the error values from the RAS header file or one of ERROR_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY or ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE.
  • szDeviceType
    Null-terminated string that specifies the type of the current device, if available. For example, common device types supported by RAS are modem, pad, switch, isdn, and NULL.
  • szDeviceName
    Null-terminated string that specifies the name of the current device, if available. This would be the name of the modem, for example, Hayes Smartmodem 2400; the name of the PAD, for example, US Sprint; or the name of a switch device, for example, Racal-Guardata.
