MONCONVSTRUCT structure (ddeml.h)
Contains information about a Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) conversation. A DDE monitoring application can use this structure to obtain information about a conversation that has been established or has terminated.
Syntax
typedef struct tagMONCONVSTRUCT {
UINT cb;
BOOL fConnect;
DWORD dwTime;
HANDLE hTask;
HSZ hszSvc;
HSZ hszTopic;
HCONV hConvClient;
HCONV hConvServer;
} MONCONVSTRUCT, *PMONCONVSTRUCT;
Members
cb
Type: UINT
The structure's size, in bytes.
fConnect
Type: BOOL
Indicates whether the conversation is currently established. A value of TRUE indicates the conversation is established; FALSE indicates it is not.
dwTime
Type: DWORD
The Windows time at which the conversation was established or terminated. Windows time is the number of milliseconds that have elapsed since the system was booted.
hTask
Type: HANDLE
A handle to a task (application instance) that is a partner in the conversation.
hszSvc
Type: HSZ
A handle to the service name on which the conversation is established.
hszTopic
Type: HSZ
A handle to the topic name on which the conversation is established.
hConvClient
Type: HCONV
A handle to the client conversation.
hConvServer
Type: HCONV
A handle to the server conversation.
Remarks
Because string handles are local to the process, the hszSvc and hszTopic members are global atoms. Similarly, conversation handles are local to the instance; therefore, the hConvClient and hConvServer members are window handles.
The hConvClient and hConvServer members of the MONCONVSTRUCT structure do not hold the same value as would be seen by the applications engaged in the conversation. Instead, they hold a globally unique pair of values that identify the conversation.
