Members

irdaDeviceID

Device identifier of the remote device to query.

irdaClassName

Null-terminated string that is the class name for an IAS object. Maximum of 60 characters.

irdaAttribName

Null-terminated string that is the attribute name for an IAS object. Maximum of 60 characters.

irdaAttribType

Attribute type. It is one of the following values:

irdaAttribInt

32-bit signed integer attribute value.

Len (IAS_ATTRIB_OCTETSEQ)

Length of OctetSeq in octets, or bytes. It is a value from 0 through 1024.

OctetSeq (IAS_ATTRIB_OCTETSEQ)

Binary value to associate with irdaAttribName.

Reserved

Used to DWORD-align the structure.

Len (IAS_ATTRIB_STR)

Length of UsrStr, in octets. It is a value from 0 through 255.

CharSet (IAS_ATTRIB_STR)

Selected character set. It is one of the following values:

UsrStr (IAS_ATTRIB_STR)

User string to associate with irdaAttribName.

Reserved

Used to DWORD-align the structure.

Remarks

If either the octet sequence specified in OctetSeq, or the user string specified in UsrStr is associated with irdaAttribName, it is necessary to allocate additional buffer space.

The remote device is queried for the attributes of an IAS object with the specified irdaClassName and irdaAttribName. If an attribute of the specified object is not found on the remote device, then the irdaAttribType is set to IAS_ATTRIB_NO_ATTRIB to indicate that no attribute was found.

The Windows CE irdaClassName and irdaAttribName members have different maximum lengths than their Windows counterparts. The irdaAttribType, Len, and irdaAttribInt members also have different types.

The Windows CE IAS_SET structure does not contain the required buffer space for either the octet sequence attributes or user string sequence attributes. To ensure that the buffer is large enough to query all remote objects, the maximum required buffer is sizeof(IAS_SET) +1024, which is the maximum attribute value length for an octet sequence.
