Platform SDK: Debugging and Error Handling

Module32First

Retrieves information about the first module associated with a process.

BOOL WINAPI Module32First(
  HANDLE hSnapshot,     
  LPMODULEENTRY32 lpme  
);

Parameters

hSnapshot
[in] Handle to the snapshot returned from a previous call to the CreateToolhelp32Snapshot function.
lpme
[in/out] Pointer to a MODULEENTRY32 structure.

Return Values

Returns TRUE if the first entry of the module list has been copied to the buffer or FALSE otherwise. The ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES error value is returned by the GetLastError function if no modules exist or the snapshot does not contain module information.

Remarks

The calling application must set the dwSize member of MODULEENTRY32 to the size, in bytes, of the structure. Module32First changes dwSize to the number of bytes written to the structure. This will never be greater than the initial value of dwSize, but it may be smaller. If the value is smaller, do not rely on the values of any members whose offsets are greater than this value.

To retrieve information about other modules associated with the specified process, use the Module32Next function.

Requirements

  Windows NT/2000: Requires Windows 2000.
  Windows 95/98: Requires Windows 95 or later.
  Header: Declared in Tlhelp32.h.
  Library: Use Kernel32.lib.
