IWDFUsbTargetDevice::GetWinUsbHandle method (wudfusb.h)

[Warning: UMDF 2 is the latest version of UMDF and supersedes UMDF 1. All new UMDF drivers should be written using UMDF 2. No new features are being added to UMDF 1 and there is limited support for UMDF 1 on newer versions of Windows 10. Universal Windows drivers must use UMDF 2. For more info, see Getting Started with UMDF.]

The GetWinUsbHandle method retrieves the WinUsb interface handle that is associated with a I/O target device object.

Syntax

WINUSB_INTERFACE_HANDLE GetWinUsbHandle();

Return value

GetWinUsbHandle returns the WinUsb interface handle that is associated with the I/O target device object.

Remarks

IWDFUsbTargetDevice::GetWinUsbHandle returns a WinUsb interface handle to the default interface. The default interface is identified by index zero.

A UMDF driver can use the WinUsb interface handle to bypass the UMDF interfaces and call WinUSB Routines directly for certain operations.

The UMDF driver should not call the WinUsb_Free function to free the WinUsb interface handle because the I/O target device object owns the handle.
