CreateErrorInfo (Windows CE 5.0)

Article
09/14/2012

This function creates an instance of a generic error object.

HRESULT CreateErrorInfo(ICreateErrorInfo** pperrinfo );

Parameters

pperrinfo
[in] Pointer to a pointer to a system-implemented generic error object.

Return Values

If successful, the function returns the HRESULT value S_OK. If it could not create the error object, the function returns E_OUTOFMEMORY.

Remarks

This function retrieves a pointer to a generic error object, which you can use with QueryInterface on ICreateErrorInfo to set its contents. You can then pass the resulting object to SetErrorInfo.

The generic error object implements both ICreateErrorInfo and IErrorInfo.

Example

ICreateErrorInfo *perrinfo;
HRESULT hr;
hr = CreateErrorInfo(&pcerrinfo);

Passing invalid (and under some circumstances NULL) pointers to this function causes an unexpected termination of the application.
