BLOB (Windows Sockets) (Compact 2013)

  • Article

3/26/2014

This structure is derived from a binary large object (BLOB) and contains information about a block of data. For Bluetooth, this structure defines values in the SDP record.

Syntax

typedef struct _BLOB {
  ULONG cbSize; 
  BYTE* pBlobData; 
} BLOB, LPBLOB;

Members

  • cbSize
    Size of the block of data pointed to by pBlobData, in bytes.
  • pBlobData
    Pointer to a block of data.

Remarks

This structure does not describe the nature of the data pointed to by pBlobData.

Windows Sockets defines a similar BLOB structure in Wtypes.h. Using both header files in the same source code file creates redefinition compile-time errors.

Requirements

Header

winsock2.h
