CMD_ENTRY structure (netsh.h)

The CMD_ENTRY structure defines a helper command.

Syntax

typedef struct _CMD_ENTRY {
  LPCWSTR            pwszCmdToken;
  PFN_HANDLE_CMD     pfnCmdHandler;
  DWORD              dwShortCmdHelpToken;
  DWORD              dwCmdHlpToken;
  DWORD              dwFlags;
  PNS_OSVERSIONCHECK pOsVersionCheck;
} CMD_ENTRY, *PCMD_ENTRY;

Members

pwszCmdToken

The token (name) for the command.

pfnCmdHandler

A function that handles the command. For more information, see FN_HANDLE_CMD.

dwShortCmdHelpToken

A short help message. This is the message identifier from the resource file of the helper DLL.

dwCmdHlpToken

The message to display if the command is followed only by a help token (HELP, /?, -?, or ?). This is the message identifier from the resource file of the helper DLL.

dwFlags

The flags for the command. For more information, see Netshell Flags.

pOsVersionCheck

The operating system version check function. This is the function used to determine whether the command can be run on the operating system running on the local and/or remote context before invoking or displaying commands. For more information, see NS_OSVERSIONCHECK.

Remarks

Macros are available that can simplify the creation of the CMD_ENTRY structure, as follows:

#define CREATE_CMD_ENTRY_EX(t,f,i)       {CMD_##t, f, HLP_##t, HLP_##t##_EX, i, NULL}
#define CREATE_CMD_ENTRY_EX_VER(t,f,i,v) {CMD_##t, f, HLP_##t, HLP_##t##_EX, i, v}
#define CREATE_CMD_ENTRY(t,f)            {CMD_##t, f, HLP_##t, HLP_##t##_EX, CMD_FLAG_PRIVATE, NULL}

If these macros are used, the following constants must be defined in the helper DLL:

The following are example uses of these macros:

#define HLP_SAMPLE_ADD_BAR_EX     1002
