SetupQueueCopySection

The SetupQueueCopySection function places all the files in a section of an INF file in a setup queue for copying. The section must be in the correct Copy Files format and the INF file must contain SourceDisksFiles and SourceDisksNames sections (or have had the INF files containing those sections appended).

BOOL SetupQueueCopySection(
  HSPFILEQ QueueHandle,  // handle of the file queue
  PCTSTR SourceRootPath, // path to the source media
  HINF InfHandle,        // handle to the master INF file
  HINF ListInfHandle,    // optional, handle to section INF
  PCTSTR Section,        // INF section w/files to copy
  DWORD CopyStyle        // specifies copy behavior
);
 

Parameters

QueueHandle

Supplies a handle to a setup file queue, as returned by SetupOpenFileQueue.

SourceRootPath

Supplies the root of the source for this copy, such as A:\.

InfHandle

This optional parameter points to the handle of an open INF file that contains the SourceDisksFiles and SourceDisksNames sections, and, if ListInfHandle is not specified, contains the section names. If platform-specific sections exist for the user's system (for example, SourceDisksNames.mips and SourceDisksFiles.mips), the platform-specific section will be used. This handle must be for a Windows 95- or Windows NT 4.0-style INF file.

ListInfHandle

If specified, supplies a handle to an open INF file that contains the section to queue for copying. If ListInfHandle is not specified, InfHandle is assumed to contain the section.

Section

Supplies the name of the section to be queued for copy.

CopyStyle

Flags that control the behavior of the file copy operation. These flags may be a combination of the following values:

SP_COPY_DELETESOURCE

Delete the source file upon successful copy. The caller is not notified if the delete fails.

SP_COPY_REPLACEONLY

Copy the file only if doing so would overwrite a file at the destination path.

SP_COPY_NEWER

Examine each file being copied to see if its version resources indicate that it is not newer than an existing copy on the target.

The file version information used during version checks is that specified in the dwFileVersionMS and dwFileVersionLS members of a VS_FIXEDFILEINFO structure, as filled in by the Win32 version functions. If one of the files does not have version resources, or if they have identical version information, the source file is considered newer.

If the source file is not newer, and CopyMsgHandler is specified, the caller is notified and may cancel the copy. If CopyMsgHandler is not specified, the file is not copied.

SP_COPY_NOOVERWRITE

Check whether the target file exists, and, if so, notify the caller who may veto the copy. If CopyMsgHandler is not specified, the file is not overwritten.

SP_COPY_NODECOMP

Do not decompress the file. When this flag is set, the target file is not given the uncompressed form of the source name (if appropriate). For example, copying f:\mips\cmd.ex_ to \\install\temp results in a target file of \\install\temp\cmd.ex_. If the SP_COPY_NODECOMP flag was not specified, the file would be decompressed and the target would be called \\install\temp\cmd.exe. The filename part of DestinationName, if specified, is stripped and replaced with the filename of the source file. When SP_COPY_NODECOMP is specified, SP_COPY_LANGUAGEAWARE and SP_COPY_NEWER are ignored.

SP_COPY_LANGUAGEAWARE

Examine each file being copied to see if its language differs from the language of any existing file already on the target. If so, and CopyMsgHandler is specified, the caller is notified and may cancel the copy. If CopyMsgHandler is not specified, the file is not copied.

SP_COPY_SOURCE_ABSOLUTE

SourceFile is a full source path. Do not look it up in the SourceDisksNames section of the INF file.

SP_COPY_SOURCEPATH_ABSOLUTE

SourcePathRoot is the full path part of the source file. Ignore the relative source specified in the SourceDisksNames section of the INF file for the source media where the file is located. This flag is ignored if SP_COPY_SOURCE_ABSOLUTE is specified.

SP_COPY_FORCE_IN_USE

If the target exists, behave as if it is in use and queue the file for copying on the next system reboot.

SP_COPY_IN_USE_NEEDS_REBOOT

If the file was in use during the copy operation, alert the user that the system needs to be rebooted.

SP_COPY_NOSKIP

Do not give the user the option to skip a file.

SP_COPY_FORCE_NOOVERWRITE

Check whether the target file exists, and, if so, the file is not overwritten. The caller is not notified.

SP_COPY_FORCE_NEWER

Examine each file being copied to see if its version resources (or timestamps for non-image files) indicate that it is not newer than an existing copy on the target. If the file being copied is not newer, the file is not copied. The caller is not notified.

SP_COPY_WARNIFSKIP

If the user tries to skip a file, warn them that skipping a file may affect the installation. (Used for system-critical files.)

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is a non-zero value.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

If a UNC directory is specified as the target directory of a file copy operation, you must ensure it exists before the queue is committed. The setup functions do not check for the existence of and do not create UNC directories. If the target UNC directory does not exist, the file copy will fail.
