IPart::GetName method (devicetopology.h)

  • Article

The GetName method gets the friendly name of this part.

Syntax

HRESULT GetName(
  [out] LPWSTR *ppwstrName
);

Parameters

[out] ppwstrName

Pointer to a pointer variable into which the method writes the address of a null-terminated, wide-character string that contains the friendly name of this part. The method allocates the storage for the string. The caller is responsible for freeing the storage, when it is no longer needed, by calling the CoTaskMemFree function. If the GetName call fails, *ppwstrName is NULL. For information about CoTaskMemFree, see the Windows SDK documentation.
