      • closeHandleRefs

        public static void closeHandleRefs(WinNT.HANDLEByReference... refs)
        Closes all referenced handles. If an exception is thrown for a specific handle, then it is accumulated until all handles have been closed. If more than one exception occurs, then it is added as a suppressed exception to the first one. Once closed all handles, the accumulated exception (if any) is thrown
        Parameters:
        refs - The references to close

        closeHandleRef(WinNT.HANDLEByReference)

      • closeHandles

        public static void closeHandles(WinNT.HANDLE... handles)
        Invokes closeHandle(WinNT.HANDLE) on each handle. If an exception is thrown for a specific handle, then it is accumulated until all handles have been closed. If more than one exception occurs, then it is added as a suppressed exception to the first one. Once closed all handles, the accumulated exception (if any) is thrown
        Parameters:
        handles - The handles to be closed
        See Also:

      • getEnvironmentVariables

        public static java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> getEnvironmentVariables(Pointer lpszEnvironmentBlock,
                                                                                       long offset)
        Parameters:
        lpszEnvironmentBlock - The environment block as received from the GetEnvironmentStrings function
        offset - Offset within the block to parse the data
        Returns:
        A Map of the parsed name=value pairs. Note: if the environment block is null then null is returned instead of an empty map since we want to distinguish between the case that the data block is null and when there are no environment variables (as unlikely as it may be)

      • findEnvironmentStringBlockEntryEnd

        public static long findEnvironmentStringBlockEntryEnd(Pointer lpszEnvironmentBlock,
                                                      long offset,
                                                      boolean asWideChars)
        Parameters:
        lpszEnvironmentBlock - The environment block as received from the GetEnvironmentStrings function
        offset - Offset within the block to look for the entry
        asWideChars - If true then the block contains wchar_t instead of "plain old" chars
        Returns:
        The offset of the first '\0' in the data block starting at the specified offset - can be the start offset itself if empty string.
        See Also:
        isWideCharEnvironmentStringBlock(com.sun.jna.Pointer, long)

      • isWideCharEnvironmentStringBlock

        public static boolean isWideCharEnvironmentStringBlock(Pointer lpszEnvironmentBlock,
                                                       long offset)

        Attempts to determine whether the data block uses wchar_t instead of "plain old" chars. It does that by reading 2 bytes from the specified offset - the character value and its charset indicator - and examining them as follows:

        • If the charset indicator is non-zero then it is assumed to be a "plain old" chars data block. Note: the assumption is that the environment variable name (at least) is ASCII.
        • Otherwise (i.e., zero charset indicator), it is assumed to be a wchar_t
        Note: the code takes into account the ByteOrder even though only ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN is the likely one
        Parameters:
        lpszEnvironmentBlock - The environment block as received from the GetEnvironmentStrings function
        offset - offset
        Returns:
        true if the block contains wchar_t instead of "plain old" chars

      • getPrivateProfileInt

        public static final int getPrivateProfileInt(java.lang.String appName,
                                             java.lang.String keyName,
                                             int defaultValue,
                                             java.lang.String fileName)
        Retrieves an integer associated with a key in the specified section of an initialization file.
        Parameters:
        appName - The name of the section in the initialization file.
        keyName - The name of the key whose value is to be retrieved. This value is in the form of a string; the Kernel32.GetPrivateProfileInt(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String) function converts the string into an integer and returns the integer.
        defaultValue - The default value to return if the key name cannot be found in the initialization file.
        fileName - The name of the initialization file. If this parameter does not contain a full path to the file, the system searches for the file in the Windows directory.
        Returns:
        The retrieved integer, or the default if not found.

      • getPrivateProfileString

        public static final java.lang.String getPrivateProfileString(java.lang.String lpAppName,
                                                             java.lang.String lpKeyName,
                                                             java.lang.String lpDefault,
                                                             java.lang.String lpFileName)
        Retrieves a string from the specified section in an initialization file.
        Parameters:
        lpAppName - The name of the section containing the key name. If this parameter is null, the Kernel32.GetPrivateProfileString(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, char[], com.sun.jna.platform.win32.WinDef.DWORD, java.lang.String) function copies all section names in the file to the supplied buffer.
        lpKeyName - The name of the key whose associated string is to be retrieved. If this parameter is null, all key names in the section specified by the lpAppName parameter are returned.
        lpDefault - A default string. If the lpKeyName key cannot be found in the initialization file, Kernel32.GetPrivateProfileString(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, char[], com.sun.jna.platform.win32.WinDef.DWORD, java.lang.String) returns the default. If this parameter is null, the default is an empty string, "".

        Avoid specifying a default string with trailing blank characters. The function inserts a null character in the lpReturnedString buffer to strip any trailing blanks.

        lpFileName - The name of the initialization file. If this parameter does not contain a full path to the file, the system searches for the file in the Windows directory.
        Returns:

        If neither lpAppName nor lpKeyName is null and the destination buffer is too small to hold the requested string, the string is truncated.

        If either lpAppName or lpKeyName is null and the destination buffer is too small to hold all the strings, the last string is truncated and followed by two null characters.

        In the event the initialization file specified by lpFileName is not found, or contains invalid values, this function will set errorno with a value of '0x2' (File Not Found). To retrieve extended error information, call Kernel32.GetLastError().

        Parameters:
        appName - The name of the section in the initialization file.
        fileName - The name of the initialization file. If this parameter does not contain a full path to the file, the system searches for the file in the Windows directory.

        public static final java.lang.String[] getPrivateProfileSectionNames(java.lang.String fileName)
        Retrieves the names of all sections in an initialization file.

        This operation is atomic; no updates to the initialization file are allowed while this method is executed.

        Parameters:
        fileName - The name of the initialization file. If this parameter is NULL, the function searches the Win.ini file. If this parameter does not contain a full path to the file, the system searches for the file in the Windows directory.

        Parameters:
        appName - The name of the section in which data is written. This section name is typically the name of the calling application.
        strings - The new key names and associated values that are to be written to the named section. Each entry must be of the form key=value.
        fileName - The name of the initialization file. If this parameter does not contain a full path for the file, the function searches the Windows directory for the file. If the file does not exist and lpFileName does not contain a full path, the function creates the file in the Windows directory.
