Overview of the Windows Connect Now technology.
To develop Windows Connect Now, you need these headers:
For programming guidance for this technology, see:
WCN_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE WCN_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE enumeration defines the attribute buffer types defined for Wi-Fi Protected Setup. The overall size occupied by each attribute buffer includes an additional 4 bytes (2 bytes of ID, 2 bytes of Length). |
WCN_PASSWORD_TYPE WCN_PASSWORD_TYPE enumeration defines the authentication that will be used in a WPS session. |
WCN_SESSION_STATUS Defines the outcome status of a WPS session. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_ASSOCIATION_STATE WCN_VALUE_TYPE_ASSOCIATION_STATE enumeration defines the possible association states of a wireless station during a Discovery request. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_AUTHENTICATION_TYPE WCN_VALUE_TYPE_AUTHENTICATION_TYPE enumeration defines the authentication types supported by the Enrollee (access point or station). |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_BOOLEAN WCN_VALUE_TYPE_BOOLEAN enumeration defines values used to represent true/false conditions encountered during device setup and association. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_CONFIG_METHODS WCN_VALUE_TYPE_CONFIG_METHODS enumeration defines the configuration methods supported by the Enrollee or Registrar. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_CONFIGURATION_ERROR WCN_VALUE_TYPE_CONFIGURATION_ERROR enumeration defines possible error values returned to a device while attempting to configure to, and associate with, the WLAN. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_CONNECTION_TYPE WCN_VALUE_TYPE_CONNECTION_TYPE. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_DEVICE_PASSWORD_ID WCN_VALUE_TYPE_DEVICE_PASSWORD_ID enumeration defines values that specify the origin or 'type' of a password. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_ENCRYPTION_TYPE WCN_VALUE_TYPE_ENCRYPTION_TYPE enumeration defines the supported WLAN encryption types. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_RF_BANDS WCN_VALUE_TYPE_RF_BANDS enumeration defines the possible radio frequency bands on which an enrollee can send Discovery requests. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_VERSION Defines the supported version of Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS). |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_WI_FI_PROTECTED_SETUP_STATE WCN_VALUE_TYPE_WI_FI_PROTECTED_SETUP_STATE enumeration. |
Connect The IWCNDevice::Connect method initiates the session. |
ConnectFailed Callback method indicates a IWCNDevice::Connect failure. |
ConnectSucceeded The IWCNConnectNotify::ConnectSucceeded callback method that indicates a successful IWCNDevice::Connect operation. |
GetAttribute The IWCNDevice::GetAttribute method gets a cached attribute from the device. |
GetIntegerAttribute The GetIntegerAttribute method gets a cached attribute from the device as an integer. |
GetNetworkProfile The IWCNDevice::GetNetworkProfile method gets a network profile from the device. |
GetStringAttribute The IWCNDevice::GetStringAttribute method gets a cached attribute from the device as a string. |
GetVendorExtension The GetVendorExtension method gets a cached vendor extension from the device. |
SetNetworkProfile The IWCNDevice::SetNetworkProfile method queues an XML WLAN profile to be provisioned to the device. This method may only be called prior to IWCNDevice::Connect. |
SetPassword The IWCNDevice::SetPassword method configures the authentication method value, and if required, a password used for the pending session. This method may only be called prior to IWCNDevice::Connect. |
SetVendorExtension The IWCNDevice::SetVendorExtension method queues a vendor extension for use in the pending session. This function may only be called prior to IWCNDevice::Connect. |
Unadvise IWCNDevice::Unadvise method removes any callback previously set via IWCNDevice::Connect. |
IWCNConnectNotify Use this interface to receive a success or failure notification when a Windows Connect Now connect session completes. |
IWCNDevice Use this interface to configure the device and initiate the session. |
WCN_VALUE_TYPE_PRIMARY_DEVICE_TYPE WCN_VALUE_TYPE_PRIMARY_DEVICE_TYPE structure contains information that identifies the device type by category, sub-category, and a manufacturer specific OUI (Organization ID). |
WCN_VENDOR_EXTENSION_SPEC WCN_VENDOR_EXTENSION_SPEC structure contains data that defines a vendor extension. |
