This method starts the enumeration of the available devices. This method will only begin if the OBEX object has been advised of the local device.
HRESULT StartDeviceEnum();
Parameters
None.
Return Values
This method returns one of the following values.
| Return value | Description |
|---|---|
| S_OK | The request was completed successfully. |
| E_FAIL | The request failed. |
| OBEX_E_NOT_INITIALIZED | Not initialized. |
Remarks
After an OBEX object has been advised of the local device, StartDeviceEnum will notify that device when the OBEX object finds a new device. The information related to this new device will be sent to the local device in the form of a property bag (a list of the device's properties). After the local device has retrieved this property bag from another device, the IObex::BindToDevice method must be used to connect to that device and transfer data.
To stop the enumeration process at any time, use the IObex::StopDeviceEnum method. After the enumeration process is stopped, call IObex::EnumDevices to retrieve a list of the enumerated devices.
