| int GetExpandedName(lpszSource, lpszBuffer) | |||||

The GetExpandedName function retrieves the original name of a compressed file if the files was compressed with the COMPRESS.EXE utility and the -r option was specified.
lpszSource
Points to a string that specifies the name of a compressed file.
lpszBuffer
Points to a buffer that receives the name of the compressed file.
The return value is TRUE if the function is successful; if an error occurs, the return value is less than zero. The following list identifies possible error return values and their meaning:
| Value | Meaning |
| LZERROR_BADINHANDLE | The handle identifying the source file, hfSource, was not valid. |
This function retrieves the original filename from the header of the compressed file. If the source file is not compressed, this function copies the filename at which lpszSource points to the buffer at which lpszBuffer points.
If -r option was not set when the file was compressed, the string in the buffer at which lpszBuffer points is invalid.
