WNetGetLastErrorA The WNetGetLastError function retrieves the most recent extended error code set by a WNet function. The network provider reported this error code; it will not generally be one of the errors included in the SDK header file WinError.h. (ANSI) |
WNetGetLastErrorW The WNetGetLastError function retrieves the most recent extended error code set by a WNet function. The network provider reported this error code; it will not generally be one of the errors included in the SDK header file WinError.h. (Unicode) |
WNetGetNetworkInformationA The WNetGetNetworkInformation function returns extended information about a specific network provider whose name was returned by a previous network enumeration. (ANSI) |
WNetGetNetworkInformationW The WNetGetNetworkInformation function returns extended information about a specific network provider whose name was returned by a previous network enumeration. (Unicode) |
WNetGetProviderNameA The WNetGetProviderName function obtains the provider name for a specific type of network. (ANSI) |
WNetGetProviderNameW The WNetGetProviderName function obtains the provider name for a specific type of network. (Unicode) |
WNetGetResourceInformationA When provided with a remote path to a network resource, the WNetGetResourceInformation function identifies the network provider that owns the resource and obtains information about the type of the resource. (ANSI) |
WNetGetResourceInformationW When provided with a remote path to a network resource, the WNetGetResourceInformation function identifies the network provider that owns the resource and obtains information about the type of the resource. (Unicode) |
WNetGetResourceParentA The WNetGetResourceParent function returns the parent of a network resource in the network browse hierarchy. Browsing begins at the location of the specified network resource. (ANSI) |
WNetGetResourceParentW The WNetGetResourceParent function returns the parent of a network resource in the network browse hierarchy. Browsing begins at the location of the specified network resource. (Unicode) |
WNetGetUniversalNameA The WNetGetUniversalName function takes a drive-based path for a network resource and returns an information structure that contains a more universal form of the name. (ANSI) |
WNetGetUniversalNameW The WNetGetUniversalName function takes a drive-based path for a network resource and returns an information structure that contains a more universal form of the name. (Unicode) |
