IByteBuffer::UnlockRegion method
[The UnlockRegion method is available for use in the operating systems specified in the Requirements section. It is not available for use in Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and subsequent versions of the operating system. The IStream interface provides similar functionality.]
The UnlockRegion method removes the access restriction on a range of bytes previously restricted by using IByteBuffer::LockRegion.
Syntax
HRESULT UnlockRegion(
[in] LONG libOffset,
[in] LONG cb,
[in] LONG dwLockType
);
Parameters
-
libOffset [in]
-
Byte offset for the beginning of the range.
-
cb [in]
-
Length, in bytes, of the range to be restricted.
-
dwLockType [in]
-
Access restrictions previously placed on the range.
Return value
The return value is an HRESULT. A value of S_OK indicates the call was successful.
Remarks
The IByteBuffer::UnlockRegion method unlocks a region previously locked by using the IByteBuffer::LockRegion method. Locked regions must later be explicitly unlocked by calling IByteBuffer::UnlockRegion with exactly the same values for the libOffset, cb, and dwLockType parameters. The region must be unlocked before the stream is released. Two adjacent regions cannot be locked separately and then unlocked with a single unlock call.
Examples
The following example shows unlocking a range of bytes.
HRESULT hr;
// Unlock a region.
hr = pIByteBuff->UnlockRegion(0, 10, LOCK_EXCLUSIVE);
if (FAILED(hr))
printf("Failed IByteBuffer::UnlockRegion\n");
