SERVICE_ADDRESS

The SERVICE_ADDRESS structure contains address information for a service. The structure can accomodate many types of interprocess communications (IPC) mechanisms and their address forms, including remote procedure calls (RPCs), named pipes, and sockets.

typedef struct _SERVICE_ADDRESS { 
    DWORD   dwAddressType; 
    DWORD   dwAddressFlags; 
    DWORD   dwAddressLength; 
    DWORD   dwPrincipalLength; 
    BYTE   *lpAddress;  
    BYTE   *lpPrincipal; 
} SERVICE_ADDRESS; 
 

Members

dwAddressType

Specifies the address family that the socket address pointed to by lpAddress belongs to.

dwAddressFlags

A set of bit flags that specify properties of the address. The following bit flags are defined:

Value	Meaning
SERVICE_ADDRESS _FLAG_RPC_CN	If this bit flag is set, the service supports connection-oriented RPC over this transport protocol.
SERVICE_ADDRESS _FLAG_RPC_DG	If this bit flag is set, the service supports datagram-oriented RPC over this transport protocol.
SERVICE_ADDRESS _FLAG_RPC_NB	If this bit flag is set, the service supports NetBIOS RPC over this transport protocol.

dwAddressLength

Specifies the size, in bytes, of the address.

dwPrincipalLength

This member is reserved for future use. It must be zero.

lpAddress

Points to a socket address of the appropriate type.

lpPrincipal

This member is reserved for future use. It must be NULL.
