PEER_APPLICATION_REGISTRATION_INFO structure (p2p.h)

The PEER_APPLICATION_REGISTRATION_INFO structure contains peer application information for registration with the local computer.

Syntax

typedef struct peer_application_registration_info_tag {
  PEER_APPLICATION application;
  PWSTR            pwzApplicationToLaunch;
  PWSTR            pwzApplicationArguments;
  DWORD            dwPublicationScope;
} PEER_APPLICATION_REGISTRATION_INFO, *PPEER_APPLICATION_REGISTRATION_INFO;

Members

application

PEER_APPLICATION structure that contains the specific peer application data.

pwzApplicationToLaunch

Zero-terminated Unicode string that contains the local path to the executable peer application. Note that this data is for local use only and that this structure is never transmitted remotely.

pwzApplicationArguments

Zero-terminated Unicode string that contains command-line arguments that must be supplied to the application when the application is launched. This data is for local use only. The PEER_APPLICATION_REGISTRATION_INFO structure is never transmitted remotely.

dwPublicationScope

PEER_PUBLICATION_SCOPE enumeration value that specifies the publication scope for this application registration information. The only valid value for this member is PEER_PUBLICATION_SCOPE_INTERNET.

Remarks

An "application" is a set of software or software components available on the peer's endpoint. Commonly, this refers to software packages that support peer networking activities, like games or other collaborative applications.

A peer application has a GUID representing a single specific application. When an application is registered for a peer, this GUID and the corresponding application can be made available to all trusted contacts of the peer, indicating the activities the peer can participate in. To deregister a peer's application, call PeerCollabUnregisterApplication with this GUID.
