ConfigurePort function pointer
The ConfigurePort function is obsolete and is for use only with Windows NT 4.0 and previous versions. For later versions of Windows, use ConfigurePortUI.
ConfigurePort is a port management function that configures the specified port.
Syntax
typedef BOOL ( WINAPI *pfnConfigurePort)(
_In_ HANDLE hMonitor,
_In_ LPWSTR pName,
_In_ HWND hWnd,
_In_ LPWSTR pPortName
);
Parameters
hMonitor [in]
Caller supplied monitor instance handle. This is the handle returned by the monitor's InitializePrintMonitor2 function. (This parameter does not exist if the print monitor supports InitializePrintMonitor instead of InitializePrintMonitor2.)pName [in]
Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the server on which the given port exists. If this string is NULL, the port is local.hWnd [in]
Handle to the parent window of the dialog box in which the configuration information will be entered.pPortName [in]
Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the port to be configured.
Return value
The return value is TRUE if the function is successful.
Remarks
The spooler calls ConfigurePort so a port monitor can perform port configuration. ConfigurePort can offer a dialog box to obtain some or all of the necessary port configuration information from the user.
The spooler does not support remote ConfigurePort calls; consequently, monitors can ignore the pName parameter.
