The DdeConnect function establishes a conversation with a server application that supports the specified service name and topic name pair. If more than one such server exists, the system selects only one.
HCONV DdeConnect(
DWORD idInst, |
// instance identifier |
HSZ hszService, |
// handle to service name string |
HSZ hszTopic, |
// handle to topic name string |
PCONVCONTEXT pCC |
// pointer to structure with context data |
); |
If the function succeeds, the return value is the handle to the established conversation.
If the function fails, the return value is 0L.
The DdeGetLastError function can be used to get the error code, which may be one of the following values:
DMLERR_DLL_NOT_INITIALIZED
DMLERR_INVALIDPARAMETER
DMLERR_NO_CONV_ESTABLISHED
DMLERR_NO_ERROR
The client application cannot make assumptions regarding the server selected. If an instance-specific name is specified in the hszService parameter, a conversation is established with only the specified instance. Instance-specific service names are passed to an application’s dynamic data exchange (DDE) callback function during the XTYP_REGISTER and XTYP_UNREGISTER transactions.
All members of the default CONVCONTEXT structure are set to zero except cb, which specifies the size of the structure, and iCodePage, which specifies CP_WINANSI (the default code page) or CP_WINUNICODE, depending on whether the ANSI or Unicode version of the DdeInitialize function was called by the client application.
CONVCONTEXT, DdeConnectList, DdeCreateStringHandle, DdeDisconnect, DdeDisconnectList, DdeInitialize, XTYP_REGISTER, XTYP_UNREGISTER
