IFileSyncScopeFilter::SetFileAttributeExcludeMask
Sets the attributes that are used to exclude files and folders from the scope.
HRESULT SetFileAttributeExcludeMask(
DWORD dwFileAttributeExcludeMask);
Parameters
- dwFileAttributeExcludeMask
[in] The attributes that are used to exclude files and folders from the scope.
Return Value
- S_OK
Remarks
A file or folder that has any one of the attributes included in this mask will be excluded from the synchronization scope.
If a folder is excluded, all its child files and folders are also excluded, even if the children do not have the attribute set directly on them. A value of 0 indicates an empty mask. This will exclude no files based on attributes.
The attributes are in the format used by the WIN32_FIND_DATA structure.
Sync Framework ignores certain attributes. An attribute that is ignored is treated as if it were set to 0 even if it is set to 1. The FSP_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MASK constant in FileSyncProvider.h defines the following as valid attributes:
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY
