Members

dwSize

Variable of type DWORD describing the size of this structure.

dwInfoFlags

Variable of type DWORD containing flags that specify the type of information contained in this structure. When a GetGroupInfo method returns, the dwInfoFlags member of the DPN_GROUP_INFO will always have both flags set, even if the corresponding pointers are set to NULL. These flags are used when calling IDirectPlay8Peer::SetGroupInfo, to notify Microsoft® DirectPlay® of which values have changed.

DPNINFO_NAME

The pwszName member contains valid data.

DPNINFO_DATA

The pvData member contains valid data.

pwszName

Pointer to a variable of type PWSTR specifying the Unicode name of the group.

pvData

Pointer to the data describing the group.

dwDataSize

Variable of type DWORD that specifies the size of the data contained in the pvData member.

dwGroupFlags

Variable of type DWORD that can be set to the following description flag.

DPNGROUP_AUTODESTRUCT

Causes the group to be automatically destroyed when the group creator leaves the group.

Remarks

When using this structure in the IDirectPlay8Peer::GetGroupInfo and IDirectPlay8Server::GetGroupInfo methods, dwInfoFlags must be set to 0.
