IOCTL_BATTERY_GETSYSTEMPOWERSTATUSEX (Windows CE 5.0)
This IOCTL retrieves information for the GetSystemPowerStatusEx system call. The DeviceIoControl function calls this IOCTL.
Parameters
- hDevice
[in] Handle to the device that is to perform the operation. To obtain a device handle, call the CreateFile function. - dwIoControlCode
[in] Set to IOCTL_BATTERY_GETSYSTEMPOWERSTATUSEX. - pInBuf
[in] Pointer to a BOOL, fUpdate. - InBufLen
[in] Set to sizeof(BOOL). - pOutBuf
[out] Pointer to a SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS_EX structure. - OutBufLen
[in] Set to sizeof(SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS_EX). - lpBytesReturned
[out] Long pointer to a variable that receives the size, in bytes, of the data stored into the buffer pointed to by lpOutBuffer. - lpOverlapped
[in] Ignored; set to NULL.**
Return Values
If successful, DeviceIoControl returns TRUE and *pdwBytesTransferred will be sizeof(SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS_EX). Otherwise, DeviceIoControl returns FALSE. In case of failure, GetLastError contains an error status.
Remarks
If fUpdate is set to TRUE, this IOCTL gets the latest information from the battery PDD, otherwise it retrieves cached information that may be out-of-date by several seconds.
